T-L Spencer: Dreaming, Writing, Reading

Intense... Dangerous... Addictive. Meet your new obsession. As the release of Walking Disaster is right around the corner (2nd April, ladies and gentlemen), here is my review of Beautiful Disaster... The story: We have Abby, newly arrived at college with a past. All she wants is to settle down with her best friend and get on with her studies. She doesn't want to reminded of bad things, drunken brawls, gambling... anything that could lead to old habits and really bad memories. Enter Travis, the college lover boy and resident hottie; the drop-dead gorgeous guy who has tattoos, fights and has far too many one-nigh-stands to count. He is maddeningly attractive... So Abby has to stay away. But Abby being immune to his charms seems to fascinate Travis. As their friendship develops, a bet is made... and Abby loses. She must stay with him at his apartment for a whole month. And then the fun begins and the romance starts. Review: At the top of the book (great cover by th...

Here they are, the Spencer family zoo animals. Sapphi is our 19 wk old husky cross while Bella (mostly black) and Donna (white) are our two cats! Look how cute they are...

Bella never used to sleep in my room... Until she discovered that my bed was next to a lovely and warm radiator. Now, I can never seem to get her out of it!

Meet Jasper, my Twilight guilty pleasure :)

Okay, so in on a HP mad session, but this is sooooooo true, it brings a sort of tear to my eye...

My favourite character from the Harry Potter books...

This picture describes me perfectly if I were to suddenly transform into a dog. I blame my education...

I love VP, he's awesome. And as a vampire, he rocks! Marius has a wonderful sense of humour in QOTD...

Yes, another yummy vampire to feast your fangs on...

I love this spell on Charmed... I only wish it worked in real life!

Yes everyone, here is Brad all dressed up as a vampire! Look at him!

Cake is yummy! Check this out...

TVD has lots of brilliant characters; the only female Original being one of them!

Here at Cleethorpes, Lincolnshire it has been a tad on the breezy side and the tides have been manic! So, today when I took the dog for a walk I was expecting a mass of sand dunes on the roads, plenty if sea weed, maybe even a few dead dish. What I didn't expect was an orange field of starfish! There were hundreds of them!

Here he is! Kick-ass vampire/human... He had to be included!

I love this. I want this. This is awesome. How cool is this? Whoever did this has my sense of humour... Totally bonkers. Ace!

Yes, the human turned vampire. I know she's not a vampire for long, but she has style :)

Yes, here is the mad vampire from Spike's woeful love life. Don't you just love an insane vampire? She really did have that perfect mixture of beauty and crazy working for her; I loved the episodes of Buffy which started her.

t Okay, so technically this is one vampire too many. But look at him! Elijah is gorgeous isn't he? Much nicer than his brother... Even in a suit, this man is just yummy!

It's Bella! Here she is all vamped out with the eyes and everything. I love the opening sequence to Breaking Dawn Pt 2 because the music is exquisite. And in this film, KS actually has facial expressions. It's a miracle x

Thank you Diana xxx I love this interview and adore the review. It has so much detail in it and gives me a real idea of where to improve and where to maintain my pace of writing. Here's the link for those of you who want to take a peek... http://offbeatvagabond.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/interview-and-review-blood-prophecy.html Thanks again to @OffbeatVagabond!

Goosebumps prickle your skin.A cold draft slithers down your spin. You shiver. Something, or someone is watching. The hairs stand up on the back of your neck as your breathing becomes shallow. You look for an implement; you can't find one. You're all alone. No one can help you. It's here... He's here... He has a knife... You run to the door but it's locked. You can't hide... You can't go anywhere... Everyone loves a good scare; especially when it comes to the movies. Who hasn't had a film day where they've crashed on the sofa, turned off the lights, drawn the curtains, grabbed the comfort food and said, 'Let's watch a horror film!' and then proceeded to pick up every cushion in sight as a means of protection? It is a tradition that will most likely continue for many years. So, with respect for tradition, here are my Top 10 horror films. The movies that made my heart race, made me reach for a pillow, made me scream, made me jump; may...

Yes, here he is. I bet you were all wondering if he'd make an appearance. Well, he has. And here is why: I myself was a fan of the books. Like all teens, I did have my Twilight phase. Now, at twenty, I can still appreciate the fang form...

The next vampire of March Bites is the Queen of the Damned... She who settles scores.

Caroline; the once human now turned super self control vampire. She has spirit and she has strength: in spades... Caroline has battled abusive boyfriends, negligent parents, evil friends and an obsessive hybrid to get to where she is today and she is still going strong! Big cheer for her! TVD has done a great job with her character!

Is work or study just too stressful? Are you tired of staring at that computer screen thinking 'GO AWAY' to all those emails? Well, here is my solution. Fill the kettle, make yourself a nice hot drink, sit back down and make yourself comfy! Kick off your shoes and pick up your book. And remember...

If you take a gander at the task bar thing you'll notice I've made a couple of changes to the pages. There are a few new stories up there! As always, I really like to hear people's points of view so after you read them, post a comment or drop me an email (see right) and I'll get back to you! Enjoy!

Oh yes, here he is, the royal black sheep Henry Fitzroy. Portrayed as the devilishly charming yet conflicted Vampire from Blood Ties, no girl can say no to a picture...

Here is our lovely (if very active) husky/ rottie/lab cross, sitting nicely, ready for her time at puppy school. What the trainer didn't realise of course was that while taking this picture, we were holding a bag of treats above my head!

Here she is, the sadist vampire bitch. I love her and hate her at the same time; Dakota Fanning does a marvellous job with the character in the Twilight Saga. And when she (SPOILER) gets her head ripped off... :)

We all love our TV series. Most of us will readily admit to just having to watch a certain programme because of those characters or that plot line. They can be addictive... and a lot of fun when they're done right. Though there were a number of TV shows that I loved such as Hawaii five-0, Buffy, Angel and Smallville, they didn't quite make it into my top ten. So with that in mind, here are my favourites... Ten: J.A.G I love a man in uniform! There is something about a hero that just doesn't let go, a man that does the right thing not the easiest and is always such a gentleman. The show has a great script and the characters are superb. I love the Admiral!  Nine:   Firefly A Joss Whedon classic, the whole 'cowboys in space' thing really appealed to me. All the characters are surprisingly realistic with enough inner conflict to remain convincing throughout.The action is cleverly directed and entertaining and despite the rotten ending to ...
