A Portrait of Kira Kang - The Girl with a Tiger Spirit

Do you ever get something unexpectedly that chokes you up and makes you a bit weepy from happiness and absolute gratitude? I had that moment when I opened my email and received this beautiful art creation from the amazing and wonderful Joni who blogs at Lace and Fog Authoress. 

One of my dreams would be to see the Prophecy series published as a manga or graphic novel. So to see this portrait of Kira, exactly as I envisioned her in a manga book, was surreal. Joni even wrote "tiger" in Korean for her tiger spirit. I have been mesmerized by this art all night long. It is beautiful and wonderful and just perfect.

This is Kira. This is the girl with a tiger spirit.

Thank you Joni for bringing her to life for me.

Funniest GIF

So my friend Renee sent me this GIF and I have been dying laughing over it for hours now! Also, as an FYI - this is the best and spiciest ramen out there. It's called Shin Ramen and you can get it at the Korean grocery. But a word of caution, it is seriously spicy! Please don't snort it!

Warrior ARCs!!

Warrior ARCs are here!!!

They are so pretty! I can't believe that I'm holding book 2 already. I am in awe!

Why you shouldn't assume...

This has to be one of my absolute favorite video clips from a television talk show. I want Retta to live with me and be my best buddy. I would happily cruise down the street blasting my favorite opera arias!
