Excerpt:
Several things battered my abused senses all at once—the slatted bench I was sitting on, the black and white checkerboard floor tile under my feet that was smeared with redness, the blood dripping from my fingertips and watchband. A piece of something hanging from the tip of my nose. Images floated around me half-noticed, unimportant.
A tissue dabbed at my face. When it pulled away, I saw it was spotted with blood. Voices faded in and out.
“I don’t know how—”
“Have you talked to any of the other eyewitnesses?”
“Oh, God, I can’t believe it! Oh, God. Oh, my God!” This last voice was soft, very soft, and full of raw horror. Then I realized it was mine.
“...exploded, Officer. Blooey!”
“...exploded, Officer. Blooey!”

Re-blogging This Very Important Safety Announcement - Fire Safety!
This is demonstrating why you absolutely do not pour water on a grease fire.holy shitOkaaaay. If any of you actually have a grease fire in the kitchen put the lid on the pan. It will suffocate the flames. Don’t pour water on it, and don’t freak out. Cook safely!Or throw flour on it to smother it./quick safety announcement
NO, DO NOT USE FLOUR, DO NOT USE FLOUR TO SMOTHER A FIRE.
YOU HAVE TO USE BAKING SODA.
Throwing flour into a fire can cause it to combust and make the fire worse because FLOUR/SUGAR IS FLAMMABLE. One cup of flour into a grease fire can have the explosive force of dynamite.
The reason you use baking soda is that it releases carbon dioxide when heated, and CO2 is a fire suppressant.

Now Available as an Audio Book! THE PAST'S PROMISE
THE PAST'S PROMISE
Erotic M/M Time Travel Romance
by Linda Mooney
Writing as Carolyn Gregg
Narrated by Guy Veryzer
She found the ultimate love of her life in another time...and as a man.
Jessie Wharton is a teacher in the twenty-first century. Or at least she was.
Taking her history class to visit the ruins of a historic fort in west Texas, the scorching heat turned her world upside down.
Suddenly, nothing was the way it was supposed to be. She was no longer Jessie Wharton. She was Jesse Webster. She wasn't a teacher. She was a private in the US Army stationed at Fort Callaghan, a completely functional outpost. And it was 1867.
Worse, she wasn't a she any longer. She was a man. A man who was finding himself falling in love with a fellow soldier named Martin Parrish.
Worse, she wasn't a she any longer. She was a man. A man who was finding himself falling in love with a fellow soldier named Martin Parrish.
Together, they discovered love in the scorching Texas heat, in a time when the merest breath of homosexuality was enough to have the accused whipped to death...if the native Indians didn't scalp them first.

Scarred and traumatized, ex-Marine Sergeant Joshua Cobb can no longer function amid normal civilization. He's retreated to the mountains of Alaska to live in solitude, where he can battle his personal demons in peace.
Life is harsh in the untamed wild, especially when he has to face other creatures who are also trying to survive. But the bears and wolves and other dangerous animals are no match for the two-legged variety who see Joshua as easy prey.
He has no idea that the injured wolf he rescues will become more than a companion. It will also save his life, and show him a love he only believed was possible in fairy tales.
Because the wolf, Qitirin, is more human than anyone could imagine.
Warning! Contains ill-fitting clothes, inhumane traps, actionable threats, banishment, pissed-off bears, and a way of life that demands both undying love and the ultimate sacrifice.

Dragon-warrior
Venom lives in self-imposed isolation. Cursed by his toxic touch, he is deadly
to anyone who has contact with him for too long. Set apart from others and
hounded by intense loneliness, he craves the lasting connection he believes he
cannot possess. Until a chance encounter with a sultry mortal offers a ray of
hope…
Evelyn
Foxe is the woman of Venom’s every desire, but she’s too busy running from the
Russian mob to think about love. As she accepts Venom’s offer to help her
escape her precarious situation, she’s skeptical, afraid that he’s in league
with those sent to harm her. But when a biological weapon is unleashed in her
hometown, Evelyn is forced to trust Venom—or risk the dangers of going it
alone.
Will
they survive the firestorm that rages around them? And can they pull from the
ashes a love that will defy all the odds and last through the ages?
