I wrote a post ages ago about a quiz I took.  I entitled that post “‘You are a saucy flirt!’ –Lake Placid.” I even attributed it to the source, like a good writer.  Since then, every month, I get a hit or three based on a search for a “saucy flirt.”  Seriously.  Who are you, and why are you looking in a search engine for a saucy flirt?  Wait.  Don’t answer that. I also always get visitors from people searching my name.  I’m probably not the Lori Sizemore they’re looking for, but it’s the other Lori’s fault she didn’t have the foresight to buy theRead More →

Okay, this isn’t a well-researched, in-depth look at love or romance or…well, anything.  I’m writing, give me a break.  You don’t tell the muse, “Not now, honey.  I’m busy writing this blog.”  You can totally tell your husband that, but not your muse.  That chick is vindictive and might not show up again for six months.  *I know*. So, for your enjoyment, a very extensive list of endearments for your sweetheart.Read More →

This is not an amusing joke, like Zombie Harmony. This is real, serious research, people. What if zombies were real? What would we have to do to stop the spreading of this “infectious disease?” Some nuggets of wisdom.  You know, just in case. Professor Robert Smith? (the question mark is part of his surname and not a typographical mistake) and colleagues wrote: “We model a zombie attack using biological assumptions based on popular zombie movies. Okay, well, as long as it’s based on biological assumptions garnered watching movies. To give the living a fighting chance, the researchers chose “classic” slow-moving zombies as our opponents ratherRead More →

Material Girl Monday…on Tuesday?  Hey, get over it.  It’s not like Santa forgot Christmas or something.  ANYWAY, going on the all writers are readers theory (I totally just made that a tag), which I have invoked several times, I believe, I found these adorable custom name stamps while looking for book plates on etsy.  Also, one of them has the sample name “Blythe,” which called to me since my mom harassed gently attempted to persuade me to name one of my daughters that.  Maybe I’ll use it in a book.  But she’ll probably be a totally evil villainess.  Or the catty town slut.  Oh, yeah. Read More →

I found this hilarious widget at The Frisky, an edgy and awesome website about love, relationships, and sex.Read More →

Lori Sizemore writes sexy and snarky romance. She adores all things story and geeks out about craft books, classes, and blog posts daily. When she’s not writing, she’s spending time with her family, playing video games, or crocheting. Sometimes all three at once, as she’s a master multi-tasker. She loves to read a good book, in any genre, but her favorite is romance. Find her online blogging or on social media through her website, lorisizemore.com. You can find Lori online everywhere, but especially in these places: Blogging about writing, reading, & reality @ Heart-Shaped Glasses @lorisizemore on Twitter Reading at Goodreads Pinning like a boss onRead More →

Thumb drive, flash drive, jump drive… they have lots of names but what they do is save your life in the case of a computer catastrophe.  I once lost 150 pages when my hard drive crashed.  That’s when I bought mine.  So, here’s an adorable one.  You don’t have to have a cute one, I just liked it.Read More →

He was a wise, wise man.  Sure, his books are awesomely fun to read if you’re four or thirty-four (no, seriously, I have actual experience with this).  Nonetheless, in between Sam I Am and The Cat in the Hat, he left us with a lot of life truths. “Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.” — Dr. SeussRead More →

This site has some awesome software most days. Two things to watch for: 1) when you go to the download page, check to make sure it’s not a “time limited offer” (not all are) and 2) install it that day. If you try to install it later, it won’t go through. <br /> <a href=”http://www.giveawayoftheday.com” mce_href=”http://www.giveawayoftheday.com”>Giveaway of the Day</a><br />Read More →

No Bitch, Ok! For Me. There’s a great story behind why I made this list. Also, the whole Bitch, Ok! thing will make more sense. You can read it by expanding the section below or just go straight to the list.

So, last week, for the first time (for some crazy reason) I was actually alone.  For several hours.  In my car.  With the Mp3s.  And the characters in my head.  In my imagination.  Except it’s not really quite your imaginationRead More →
