I am an avid reader.  I recently got to read a book written by an old friend.  The Wolf’s Torment can be bought on Amazon or IUniverse

The Wolf’s Torment by SG Cardin

This past weekend I was taken away to Moldavia.  The Wolf’s Torment had me from the beginning to the end.  A book set in Romania in the 1800 during a time of political change.  It is a region of the world still hanging on to old mystics.  But wanting to merge with the modern world.  With the taint of witches, gypsies, vampires and werewolves how do they over come.

Mihai, the hero, struggles with coming of age, becoming a husband, father and king.  The prologue tell us of how he lost his mother and we learn from the very beginning how strong he is. We learn to love the man he is trying to become, for himself, his parents, his wife and his country. 

Theresa, Mihai’s arranged marriage, struggles with her own set of torments.  She must deal with her husband coping with his life as well as the consequences of his past.  There are also secrets to her past that she will try to unravel.

Viktor’s journey is the one of the wolf.  He is Mihai best friend and boarding school comrade.  His transformation after the bite of a werewolf is one that rivets the reader.  It will keep you wondering what will happen next.  He struggles with the man he is and the werewolf he becomes every full moon.  This affects all that know him.  You keep reading to know if he will overcome all his torments. 

The Wolf’s Torment is definitely a page turner.  You do not want to put it down.  It is one of those stories that is written with the skill that will pull you in.  S.G. Cardin draws you into the surroundings and to the characters lives.  She spins an excellent tale that leaves you feeling like you are actually in the 1800s in Moldavia.  Definitely a good read.  It is a book that I highly recommend.

Good Morning!

I have not been around for a week or so.  Been taking time to slack off.  Actually I have been building my website and working on getting Soap of Course up and running.  And I have been making lots of soap.  Yesterday I made chocolate goat’s milk.  Smells yummy.  I am worried a bit about the color though.  We will see how it looks when it comes out of the mold later today.

I have been doing so much research on affiliate marketing and website traffic that I think my brain may burst.  I know that traffic is not a thing that happens overnight, but …  And that has always been my problem in the past.  I want all the traffic now.  And I haven’t even uploaded the business site yet.  I am so impatient.  But this time I will not give up.  I will not, I will not.  This time I am going to stick to it.

I have some goals.  Actually I have quite a few of them.  My short termed goals (that means this week) are to get www.soapofcourse.com up and running.  Maybe run an opening special?  To get 9 articles written, proofed and submitted to AC, once they have been approved there upload them here and on other sites.  And to clean off my desk.  I know that seems like an unending chore.  But I really think it is important.  One has to keep their desk clean and organized to keep their minds organized.

My plug for today is the Hot Seminar Series.  If you are in business you will find these seminars so valuable.  Don’t miss them.  But if you do and you have a season pass you can download the MP3 and listen to them anytime.  The season pass comes with Kelly’s notes too.  This is the second year and I tell you I wouldn’t miss all the wonderful information that is there.  Oh and night number 4 is tonight!  So hurry on over and get your season pass.  You won’t regret it.

See my website is growing. I wrote these two last week. Take a look at The Power of 15 Minutes to a More Organized House and The Power to Throw Things Away - The Way to a More Organized House I guess I was writing in a theme there. Seems we all want the perfect house. But there are just somethings that hold us back. Hope you enjoy the articles. Let me know what you think!
