Apocalypse, Battlestar Galactica Style!

Oh yes! It's been a while since I've mentioned one of my fave ever series and what better place to talk about it than over on the Romance Writers of the Apocalypse blog? I explain why this series so captured my imagination with its fantastic world building. Would love to see you over there!

The Goldilocks Zone

I've always been fascinated by outer space and the Universe (I'm sure this comes as no surprise to those who know of my obsession with shows such as Battlestar Galactica!) So I was very excited to learn of the discovery of a planet that could possibly be habitable. It got me thinking... and I ended up writing an article for the lovely Sia at OVER COFFEE today about that elusive Goldilocks Zone and how it also applies to the publishing world. I'd love if you could pop over and share your thoughts too!!And there's a giveaway!!

Weekend Fun with BSG!

I can always rely on my great mate Eleni Konstantine to find fabulous YouTubes! The latest one involves Battlestar Galactica which is good enough for me on its own, but! There's more. It's set to the tune of the classic Queen hit, Bohemian Rhapsody but the lyrics - OMG. The lyrics slay me. You can find them here. I've been driving my family nuts by singing them for the last two days (my son and husband thank you for that, Eleni!!!!)


Brilliant!

I'm in the Menagerie!

Today I'm visiting with the lovely Kealie and ladies over at The Menagerie, where I'm chatting about drinking, thunderstorms and the last movie that made me cry (won't be going to see that one again, and I'm completely avoiding going to see My Sister's Keeper too!!!)

On Friday I was in Big W when I stumbled upon... ta da...Battlestar Galactica Season 4.5. OMG. I was so ridiculously excited I grabbed the DVD and might have squealed. Out loud. Thankfully my daughter was down the PC aisle so didn't have to disown me.

I couldn't wait till my husband got home so we could watch it because seriously, I've been gagging for this to come out so I could finally follow what was going on!! Anyway, can you believe it. He wanted to watch the cricket instead. Now, I know England is doing amazingly well, I've even been watching some of it (it has nothing to do with the hotness of certain players!) and yes it does make a huge change to actually watch a game where England isn't being ritualistically slaughtered by the Aussies!!! But still, we're talking about BSG here!

So I was secretly pleased when they had to abandon play on Saturday due to rain, since we ended up watching four episodes. *Happy Sigh*

I am very easy to please.
