Read an Excerpt
Nikos Angelaki stood at the edge of the ballroom and surveyed the five hundred or so guests who were dancing or sipping champagne beneath the ornate chandeliers. The men were uniform in black tuxedos, while the women—dressed in couture gowns and flaunting a spectacular array of diamonds and precious gems—flitted about the dance floor like gaudy butterflies. He flicked back the cuff of his dinner jacket, glanced at his Rolex, and then began to make his way across the room—aware of the interested glances he received as he passed. At thirty-two he was used to the attention his looks and the rumours of his wealth attracted. An attractive blonde in a daringly low-cut dress caught his attention, and his gaze lingered on her fleetingly before he stepped into the lobby.
It was the first time he had attended the royal ball or visited the Aristan palace, and he was impressed by the elegant splendour of the rooms where the silk-covered walls were lined with priceless works of art. The ruling family of the House of Karedes was one of the wealthiest families in Europe, and the guest-list included members of the aristocracy and heads of state—grand people who had no idea that the Prince Regent's honoured guest tonight had grown up in the slums of Athens.
Nikos wondered cynically if the butler who had escorted him to the state drawing room to greet Prince Sebastian would have been quite so obsequious if he'd known that Nikos's mother had once worked as a lowly kitchen maid at the palace. However, that was something he hadn't even revealed to Sebastian, despite the close friendship that had developed between them.
He strode across the hall, pushed open a door, andfound himself in the banqueting suite, which was empty, apart from a waitress at the far end of the room who—unlike the other palace staff who seemed to be rushed off their feet tonight— was idly folding napkins.
The guests had eaten earlier, but Nikos's delayed flight had meant that he had missed the buffet supper, and as he glanced at the mouth-watering selection of canapés he was aware of a hollow feeling in his stomach. Business first, he told himself firmly. It was evening in Aristo, but early afternoon on America's east coast and he had arranged to call a client in New York. He strolled towards the waitress who had her back to him and was still oblivious to his presence.
'Can you tell me if there is somewhere I can be uninterrupted? I need to make an urgent business call.'
The deep, gravelly voice was so innately sensual that the tiny hairs on Kitty's body stood on end, and she turned her head, her heart crashing in her chest when she stared up at the man who had come silently into the room. She had recognised him instantly when he had walked into the ballroom earlier in the evening—Nikos Angelaki, billionaire shipping magnate, notorious playboy, and in recent months one of her brother's closest confidants. Sebastian had explained that he had met Nikos at a business function in Greece, and since then the two men had discovered a mutual liking for poker and the roulette wheel in the nightclubs of Aristo and Athens.
The photographs Kitty had seen of him in the tabloids had triggered her interest, but nothing had prepared her for the impact of Nikos in the flesh. He was suave, sophisticated and spine-tinglingly sexy. Taller than average; his tapered black trousers emphasised his long legs and taut thighs, while his impeccably tailored dinner jacket cloaked formidably broad shoulders. But it was his face that captured her attention. Handsome was a barely adequate description of the chiselled perfection of his features: the slanting, razor-sharp cheekbones and square chin, the heavy brows arched above midnight-dark eyes, and a wide, sensual mouth.
In the silence that stretched between them Kitty sensed his arrogance and devil-may-care confidence, and she felt an unbidden and shockingly intense tug of sexual awareness that sent a quiver down her spine. He was gorgeous, but she suddenly realised that she was staring at him, and she blushed.
'There is a small sitting room through there,' she mumbled, indicating the door at the far end of the room.
'Thank you.'
His eyes skimmed over her, making a brief inspection of her unexciting black cocktail dress, and Kitty wished fervently that she had bought a new outfit for the ball—something slinky and low-cut that would have made him look at her with male appreciation, rather than dismiss her without a second glance.
But she had never been very interested in clothes, preferring her research work for Aristo's museum to shopping, and it had only been when she had flicked through her list of preparations for the ball and seen the words 'buy dress' that she'd realised she had nothing suitable to wear to the palace's most prestigious social event.
She lacked the confidence to wear sexy outfits, anyway, she acknowledged dismally. And she certainly wouldn't stand a chance with a man like Nikos. He had given no sign that he recognised her, but palace protocol dictated that she should make the first introduction. Immediately she felt tongue-tied by the crippling shyness that had afflicted her since childhood.
Not for the first time she wished she shared her sister Princess Elissa's self-confidence and sparkling personality. Liss always made socialising look so easy.
She was Princess Katarina Karedes, fourth in line to the throne of Aristo, Kitty reminded herself. She had been trained practically from birth to deal with social situations, but she had never found meeting new people easy, and she was still steeling herself to offer her hand to Nikos in formal greeting when he spoke again.
'I've a feeling that you are needed to serve champagne in the ballroom. I understand from Prince Sebastian that a number of the catering staff have been taken ill, and I noticed that many of the guests have empty glasses.' He gave her a faint, dismissive smile, as if he expected her to immediately scuttle off, and turned his attention to his phone.
Kitty gaped at him, overwhelmed by his powerful personality, and taken aback by his suggestion that she was needed to serve drinks. She was aware of the problem with the caterers she had booked to work alongside the palace staff, and, having spent the past month planning every detail of the ball like a military operation, she found it annoying that so many of the waiters had succumbed to a virulent sickness virus. Anxious to ensure that the evening ran smoothly she had come to the banqueting room to check over the buffet table, but the head butler had assured her that everything was under control, and she was sure it was not necessary for her to take on the role of waitress.
Usually she had little to do with the royal ball, but this year, with Queen Tia mourning the death of the king, Sebastian had asked her to oversee the arrangements. Seb had enough on his mind, Kitty thought ruefully. After their father's unexpected death Sebastian should have immediately become the new king. But the shocking discovery that the Aristan half of the Stefani diamond, which was set in the Aristan Crown, was a fake, and that the real diamond was missing, had thrown the plans for his coronation into disarray. By royal tradition Sebastian could not be crowned if he did not have the jewel, and until it was found he could only assume the title of Prince Regent.
Lost in her thoughts, Kitty suddenly realised that Nikos Angelaki was watching her with unconcealed impatience. He moved away and began to punch numbers into his phone. 'My client is expecting my call,' he said as he walked towards the door leading to the sitting room. 'And you had better get back to work.' He paused, and looked back at her. 'Actually, you could bring me some champagne—and while you're about it something from the buffet. The dolmathakia looks good, and perhaps some bread and olives.'
He was a guest, Kitty reminded herself, and her duty as hostess of the ball was to ensure that the guests enjoyed the evening. But his haughty tone rankled. It was usual for people she did not know to address her as Your Highness, but Nikos was either unaware or unimpressed that he should use her royal title. Throughout her life Kitty had been treated with a deference suited to her royal status. She did not expect to be fawned over, but Nikos had spoken to her as if she were a lackey. Didn't he know who she was?
'You want me to serve you?' she queried, taken aback by his arrogant demand.
Her sharp tone caught Nikos's attention and he glanced across the room, his eyes narrowing when he noted the waitress's mutinous expression. He had paid scant attention to her when he had first walked into the room, and had formed a vague impression of a dumpy, rather plain girl in a badly fitting dress. But now, as he studied her more closely, he realised that she was far from uninteresting.
She was unfashionably curvaceous, he mused idly, allowing his gaze to roam over the swell of her hips that flared below her neat waist. Her voluptuous breasts straining beneath her dress would make a generous handful. A vivid mental picture came into his mind of her wearing a strapless, low-cut couture gown that displayed her breasts like plump, round peaches. In his imagination he saw himself slowly removing the gown, drawing it down and feasting his eyes on her nakedness, and he felt his body tighten with unbidden sexual awareness.
She wasn't his type, he reminded himself irritably. He liked tall, elegant blondes, and she was a short, curvy brunette. Her heavy-rimmed glasses were unflattering, but he noted that her skin was smooth and tinted a pale olive-gold, her slanting cheekbones highlighted by a flush of rose-pink, and her mouth was wide, her lips full and lush and eminently kissable.
Hell! He'd obviously been celibate for too long, he thought sardonically. He was a self-confessed workaholic, and under his leadership Petridis Angelaki Shipping's profits had soared. He worked hard and played hard, but recently he hadn't played enough. It was time he redressed the balance—but he doubted Prince Sebastian would be pleased if he seduced a member of the palace staff.
'If it's not too much trouble,' he drawled sarcastically. 'It is your job, after all.'
Kitty thought of the hours she'd spent organising the party, and felt a spurt of temper. She'd been run ragged for weeks, anxious to ensure the ball was a success for Sebastian's sake, but her duties didn't include acting as a personal attendant to one of her brother's friends. Twin spots of colour burned on her cheeks, and she put her hands on her hips.
'The idea of the buffet table is that guests can help themselves,' she informed Nikos tightly.
She saw him frown as his eyes trailed over her, and it suddenly struck her that her high-necked, long-sleeved black dress—which she had bought two seasons ago in the hope that the starkly simple style would make her look slimmer—was almost identical to the uniform that the female serving staff were wearing. Her job! Understanding slowly dawned. Could it be that Nikos Angelaki had no idea of her identity? They had never met, and, unlike Liss, who was often pictured in the tabloids, she was rarely recognised by the paparazzi. Nikos clearly believed she was one of the palace staff, and she didn't know whether to be amused or insulted by the mistake.
She opened her mouth to tell him that she was Princess Katarina, not a lowly servant, but something held her back. It was humiliating that he had mistaken her for a waitress. She wished now that she had made more effort with her appearance instead of blithely assuming that no one would take much notice of her. She was acting as the Prince Regent's consort tonight, and people had noticed her, but for all the wrong reasons.
During the evening she had overheard various unflattering comments from the guests that she was the Plain Jane Princess who had missed out on her sister's looks: '… twenty-six…oh, no, not married… must be hard to be in the shadow of lovely Liss. Apparently Princess Katarina is the brainy one, but she doesn't share Princess Elissa's beauty.'
Kitty wondered how Nikos would react when she told him she was a princess. Would he share the general consensus of the guests that she was the ugly duckling of the family? It didn't help that he was so stunningly good-looking. She could feel her heart thudding erratically as she absorbed the masculine beauty of his face, and she was startled by a fierce longing to run her fingers through the lock of silky black hair that had fallen forwards onto his brow.
She was terrified that he could somehow read her mind, but she could not tear her eyes from his, and she sensed something indefinable pass between them that made her skin prickle and her breasts tingle. To her horror she felt her nipples swell beneath her dress and she hastily crossed her arms over her chest, her cheeks burning.
Nikos recognised the flare of sexual awareness in the waitress's eyes and was infuriated by his own body's involuntary reaction to it. He did not have time to waste dealing with a stroppy domestic, even though the chemistry between them was tangible. 'I suggest you look up the word "servant",' he said coldly. 'You'll find it means "someone who is paid to serve". I'm sure Prince Sebastian is a fair employer who pays you a generous wage, and I would be grateful if you could do as I've asked without further argument.'
He should walk through into the private sitting room and make his call—but for reasons he couldn't explain, he hesitated. He could not dismiss the ridiculous urge to pull the girl into his arms and kiss her senseless. Not a girl, he corrected himself, his eyes drawn once again to the firm swell of her breasts. She was very much a woman, with a gorgeous hourglass figure that might not be 'in' with the fashion police but was incredibly sexy. He felt a fierce tug of sexual hunger in his groin and inhaled sharply, his nostrils flaring. 'What is your name?' he demanded harshly.
'It's…Rina.' The words spilled from Kitty's lips, and the moment they were out it was too late to retract them. She didn't understand what had prompted her to withhold her true identity, but she knew that Nikos had previously met Liss at a party in Paris and, although it was stupid, she could not bear the idea of him comparing her with her beautiful, glamorous sister. 'I'm new here,' she mumbled, assuring herself that she had only lied to save him the embarrassment of learning that he had mistaken a member of the royal family for a servant.

I got reading some of Holly Lisle's terrifyingly extensive online notes on writing and came away with something that seemed like a good idea; regardless of what you're working on, if you've got a dream project you want to work on for which there's no prospect of a contract, give yourself one day a week to work on it. I'm running on memory here because I've lost the original link, but as I recall Holly mentioned being initially concerned by the idea of doing this for the same reason it worried me, in that you can end up distracted from what you should really be doing, ie working on stuff you're reasonably sure you might get paid for. But apparently it made her more productive on her other output as well, so I'm going to give it a try. There's a couple of ideas I have I'd like to put together, and now that I'm sitting down and writing them up for the first time (Friday being my chosen day), it's feeling good.
I mentioned a while back I was going to redesign the website. That's done, but first I have to figure out how to set up some file formats for downloadable stuff. I've taken excerpts from all the books and tried setting them up in different ebook formats, but this has proven more difficult than I hoped it might be. I'm doing the same for two short stories, The Ranch, which has been up for a while, and another story related to my first novel first published in Interzone way back when. They're fine in .rtf and Sony Reader format, but anything else like .epub just seems to be jinxed. But once I've sorted them out - or rather, when I've had the time to sort them out - they'll go live along with the rest of the redesign.


text: "We are all equals, whether be male or female, animal or man, we have the same rights, and we live by the same rules. No matter how small or tall, we are God's creation." Hello, I'm 'iliketowritealot', but call me Em. It's easier for you, at least. I'm still in High School, but for my English GCSE's I got an A, I was extremely happy. I got A's for the rest of my subjects, and I am commonly known as a 'dork/geek', but I'm not. I enjoy going out for a few drinks, I would have more, but, me + alcohol = very bad hangover and heaving it all back out. You know what I mean.

Traditionally there are 4 major forces in this world, politics, military, economics and religion.
All of those have been used and misused in the past. The 21th century is about the power of knowledge and information. Allthough it seems little against those major forces mentioned before, it is not !
Knowledge overrules all of them, most powers are engined by belief and belief is based on information but not necessarily true. Too bad most of the information provided is to sustain that power and therefore it is influenced by people and that makes it very unreliable, even in the western world where we have free press and freedom of speech.
But true knowledge is verifiable, it is transferable and should be based on facts (which offcourse should also be verifiable).
This article is to try and let people think about those words. What is true, what are facts and what is knowledge ?
If we have a good definition, we could setup a knowledge database similar to wikipedia but the facts should be verified by scientists or people with undisputable reputation in their respective fields.
But it should be readable like a book and for all people to be understood, that means journalists or writers should actually make the content. Scientist are bad in explaining their stuff :-)
Well, these are my thoughts for today, which I wanted to share with you all.

I have been a mama for a little over 3 months now. What amazes me is just how much life has changed in that short period of time. When I was still pregnant, I tried to picture the day we would bring our daughter home from the hospital. It was so hard for me to wrap my brain around the fact that someday, in the very near future, Pete and I would enter the hospital as a family of two and leave as a family of three. Life as we knew it would be forever changed. That I knew.
Me at 39 weeks...the last belly picture before welcoming our Josephine. As I sit here, three months in, I find myself thinking back to that pregnant me. Thinking how she really had no idea how much life would change the moment that baby was born. Three months ago, I thought I was prepared for all that this new adventure would bring. But, in the past three months, I have been taught so much. Some lessons more serious than others. But each just as important as the next...
/1/ You can make a plan, but there's no guarantee that everything will happen according to your plan.
Oh, I could write a book on this one! And that book would start with the birth of our little peanut. Although I didn't have a formal birth plan, I had a list in my head of things that I knew I wanted. I knew I wanted an epidural. I knew I wanted to immediately hold my daughter, to get that immediate skin-to-skin that is so important. I knew I wanted to exclusively breastfeed. And there was no doubt in my mind that all of those things would happen. Well, fast forward to an early morning scare that landed me in the hospital two days before my due date, preparing to have my daughter delivered via c-section. Had there been a written birth plan, I can assure you, the one thing you wouldn't have found was "have a c-section." The c-section made it impossible for me to get that immediate skin-to-skin time that I had planned for. It also made breastfeeding very difficult. It has taken time for me to push the what-ifs out of my head. I can't help but think had I not had a c-section, they could have put that baby on my chest and she would have immediately taken to nursing. Then, she wouldn't have lost so much weight after birth. We wouldn't have had to supplement with formula. Breastfeeding wouldn't still be a constant struggle. But, everything happened how it happened. And we have a beautiful, healthy baby girl...and that was part of the plan.
/2/ You will question everything you do. Is she eating enough? Am I holding her enough? Am I holding her too much? Why is she crying? Is she tired? Is it gas? Is she too warm? Is she cold? Is her swaddle too tight? When should I stop swaddling her? Is she sleeping enough? Are we doing enough tummy time? The list goes on and on...
/3/Google is both a blessing and a curse.
/3/Google is both a blessing and a curse.
If you could only see my Google search history. Almost everything starts with Is it normal... Is it normal for my newborn to have explosive poops? Is it normal for my breastfed baby's poop to smell? Is it normal for my baby's umbilical cord to bleed? Is it normal for my baby's soft spot to bulge? I love having the internet to quell a lot of my new mom paranoia, but sometimes it only adds to my anxiety. For instance, the other day I pretty much convinced myself that Josephine had encephalitis or meningitis. Her soft spot was slightly raised, so I of course turned to Dr. Google. Bad idea. She was otherwise healthy. No fever. No vomiting. But after reading all the message boards, I was sure she was deathly ill.
/4/ Priorities change...and that's a good thing! Before having Josephine, I would get anxiety if I couldn't get the house cleaned at least once a week. Now, I'm lucky if we get to clean twice a month. And you know what? I am a-okay with that. I've learned to accept that a clean house does not make me any better of a mother or a wife. And, there are new, more important things to do. Like cuddling and dancing and singing and rocking...
/5/ Just when you think you have everything figured out, you don't. I can't tell you how many times Pete and I have thought that we finally crossed some milestone off the list only to be utterly, and completely wrong. Case in point, Josephine slept for 8 hours one night. We did a happy dance and thought Finally, we can get a proper night's sleep! Hooray! The next night comes, and we put her down, looking forward to another evening of more than 2 consecutive hours of sleep. Well, the joke was on us. The girl woke up to eat every 2 hours on. the. dot. That's when you just have to laugh. Parenthood is a sneaky little thing. Those long stretches of sleep still happen every now and again. And I still get that giddy feeling when it does. But we'll wait until it happens two nights in a row to do any celebrating.
/6/ Showering everyday is overrated. So is getting dressed and putting on makeup. While showering and changing out of last night's pjs would probably make me feel more like a human and less like a walking burp cloth, there just isn't the time most days. And, like cleaning, this is something that has been pushed to the bottom of the priorities list. When Josephine finally goes down for a nap, sometimes I would rather just sit in front of the television, turn on BRAVO! and eat something while I have both my hands free. Don't get me wrong, though. I do hope that my days of unwashed hair and sweats are numbered. And, although he would never say it, I am sure my husband does, too...
/7/ You will never feel a love like you do for your child. Never. Sometimes I feel like my heart might explode right out of my chest. Especially when she gives me that smile. The one that says, 'I know you are my mama.' And it kills me. Every time.

Hints of DomesticationMature
Having successfully gotten Beth to leave the apartment for the evening, I set to cooking food. She might have said she didn't want any, but I knew she'd be starving when she'd finished work. Plus it would give me an excuse to extend the torture.
Rather sooner than I would have expected, there was a knock on the door.
"That was quick..." I trailed off when I came face to face with Beth.
"Yeah, I know, I know... I gotta go. I just forgot to take my books."
"I thought you were going out?"
"Yeah, it's six sweetie. I can't go out until way later. So I'm working."
"Oh... okay."
She went in to her room and I sighed, closing the door. I'd never been this anxious before. I mean, it was basically my forte, to get with women. Being with Alex overshadowed all of them, and I was nervous that... well that we wouldn't... work. I mean, I hadn't cared about those women, so I hadn't cared about what they thought of me the next day. As long as I had a good time. It had been the only way I could protect myself against the very situation I was in. I'd never even brought a woman back to my apartment.
Another knock startled me out of my thoughts.
"Hey-" She threw her arms around me and kissed me so fiercely that I almost lost the support of my legs. I felt her close the door and back me against it, but I was too lost in her to really think about anything else.
"Ahem!" We broke apart to find Beth smirking at us. "Don't mind me."
"Beth... Helena told me you weren't going to be here."
"I'm not. I'm going..." She grinned at Alex's blushing face. "You two enjoy yourselves though. Just keep out of my room. And off the surfaces... that's not hygienic."
Alex's blush deepened and I glared past mine at Beth as she left.
"Sorry about her," I muttered, taking Alex's hand and leading her over to the kitchen. "She has no respect for dignity or personal space."
"That's okay; she's gone now." Alex grinned. "That smells delicious."
"And it's almost done."
"Mhmm," she murmured, wrapping her arms around my waist from behind. "How long?" She started nibbling on my neck, and I chuckled. Remember, torture.
"Too soon for you to be distracting. Sit." I released myself from her arms and steered her over to the kitchen island stools.
"But it's my turn to be distracting," she pouted, hooking her fingers in to my belt loops and pulling me in.
"You want my kitchen to burn down?" I grinned.
"No... but I do want your undivided attention." She bit her lip and slipped her hands under my shirt and massaged my hips. I shivered slightly, and kissed her, slowly, in response, before pulling away and heading back to the oven.
"Well, you'll just have to wait. You can pick out some drinks if you want to keep your hands busy."
"Oh there are so many things I'd rather be doing with my hands."
I inhaled sharply, trying to ignore the rush of heat that had just washed over my body.
"Me first." I shot back.
We ate; chicken with a creamy sauce and vegetables, followed by a chocolate dessert I'd picked up at the shop. It had hot melted sauce on top and I made a show of sucking my spoon clear of it, and moaning a little at the taste. Alex glared at me.
"You're really milking this aren't you?" She muttered as I cleared the plates away. Should I wash them too? We really should wait; let our food settle.
"Of course."
"Are you scared?" She asked, as I began to wash the pots. I paused.
"I;m not scared... I am a little... nervous? It's been a long time since I did anything like this. Since I've had someone in my apartment... it's just not what I'm used to."
"I get it," she murmured, picking up a towel and beginning to dry pots. "But we don't have to do anything until you're ready. You're going to have to stop teasing me until then though. I can't cope with this much longer."
"I fully intend to tease you for a long time," I smirked.
"Oh really?" She smiled gently. "I guess I would just have to learn to live with that then." I dried my hands, and picked up my glass of wine while she finished drying the pots.
"Do you want to watch some TV? Or play a game?"
"I think you've played far too many games already," she murmured, putting down the towel. She took my glass and set it down on the worktop. "But TV sounds good."
We settled on the sofa, curled up, and I felt my nerves lessen, even if they didn't go away fully.
"How was your day?" I asked, and then laughed at myself.
"I have never sounded that domestic."
She grinned and kissed my cheek.
"Careful, you'll be wearing something girly next."
"Heaven forbid," I chuckled and tangled my fingers in her. "You'd miss the black."
"I would." She stroked her thumb along my hand.
We watched in silence for a while, but all I could concentrate on was her thumb stroking along my hand. I glanced across at her, but she was pretending to concentrate on the TV. The hitch in her breath betrayed her. Grinning, I knelt and threw a leg over her, settling in to the familiar position. She smiled shyly up at me.
"Can I ask you something?" She murmured, sliding her hands up my thighs to hold me.
"Yes?" I muttered, concentrating on taking her hair out of the ponytail it was in. I ran my hands through her hair and she sighed, closing her eyes when I scratched my nails against her scalp.
"H-Have you ever brought anyone here?" I paused and her eyes fluttered open. "Sorry... it's the psychologist in me..."
"It's okay. No. No, I haven't." I stroked her hair again.
"This is a big step for you then, I mean..." She frowned. I kissed the crease between her eyebrows, and shifted forward on her lap.
"You are thinking far too much," I murmured, kissing her lips gently. "I didn't realise you'd be analysing me in the bedroom too."
"Feel free to shut me up any time."
"Happily." I leaned down and kissed her again, enjoying the sounds that I drew from her. She pulled me closer, and her fingers slid under my shirt. I let her lift it off me, and leaned back as she gazed at me.
"I want to kiss every inch of you." She murmured, trailing her fingers up my stomach.
"Then get on with it," I chuckled, taking her head in my hands and leading her to my skin.
I woke up in my own bed, wrapped around Alex like a koala. Oh great, now I'm a clingy one, I smirked. It felt good though, being tucked under her chin, arms wrapped around her waist. I let my fingers trail down her arm, and felt her stir.
"Hello," she murmured. "I didn't have you pegged as someone that cuddled."
"This is a first for me," I admitted.
"I must have made an impression then," she chuckled. "What time is it?"
I glanced over at my clock.
"Six am."
"We can sleep for a bit then," she murmured, pulling me close again.
"We could... but I can think of better things." I grinned.
"Oh yeah? You can huh?" She smiled.

Five On Friday
Today, in the interests of brevity I have Five quotes from The Book of Hygge that I wrote about here.
"A Dane will tend to consider any other person as neither better or less than himself, while acknowledging, for example, that the other person may incidentally have more money or a lower status."
Judith Friedman Hansen
"We cannot all do great things, but we can do small things with great love."
Mother Teresa
"Less is more."
Robert Browning
"How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives."
Annie Dillard
"That it will never come again is what makes life so sweet."
Emily Dickinson
I don't really have any news to update you with at the moment, as I said, in a couple of weeks I will do an update of some sort if/as and when I feel up to it/want to. Basically I have just been busy so nothing really to share.
If you didn't read my post on Wednesday this week about Agnes, please do go and have a look here, and if you can include a link to Agnes in one of your posts, please do, it would be lovely if you could.
I was so glad that some of you left me comments saying this had come at just the right time for you or that you would pass it on to someone you knew it would be useful to, that is so great. Thank you, and I know that Sam and Charlotte thank you too - because they told me!
Thank you.
I hope that you all have a great weekend and a great couple of weeks ahead if I don't see you so much.
Love each other and be just a little kinder than you need to.
p.s. of course you I am linking to Five On Friday and you can find the other posts here, via the badge in my sidebar or the post after this one which is where you can link your post.

Have passed on the details of Agnes to our local secondary school as thought it such a valuable resource.

Great quotes & a different way to do your Five on Friday. Thanks. Have a good weekend and take care.ReplyDelete
Great quotes from a lovely little book (I enjoyed reading it). I'm a fan of 'less is more' too – often quoted to my children. Also 'quality not quantity' (which amuses me, not them!). Have a great weekend, Amy. Sam xReplyDelete
Thought provoking thoughts they have certainly given me something to ponder. Hope all is well with you. Take care.ReplyDelete

All lovely quotes Amy. One I love: From the gentle Mister Rogers:ReplyDelete
7. "If you could only sense how important you are to the lives of those you meet; how important you can be to the people you may never even dream of. There is something of yourself that you leave at every meeting with another person." — Fred Rogers
Some interesting and inspiring quotes. I hope all goes well over the next few weeks, Take care:)ReplyDelete

Have a good week - I've started a sock by the way lol
Hello - the Hygge craze has not really hit us in Australia, I wonder if it's because our climate is different. I will pick up the book when I am over in the UK in a few weeks as it is of interest since your post. I like the quotes!ReplyDelete
Have a happy, if busy week.
Wren x
Lovely quotes - all important to remember. Hope you're doing ok - have been thinking about you. xxReplyDelete
I missed the Agnes post before, but I've visited the page and am going to look more into it. I have a 14 year old girl who I'm sure will be very interested. Thank you so much for sharing that! Have a lovely weekend Amy.ReplyDelete
Those are some great quotes. I especially like "how we spend our days is how we spend our lives." Such truth in those words!ReplyDelete
Thanks for hosting this link-up!
I read in an Instagram post from Bellagrace magazine that a great Valentine's gift to ourselves would be to create a little quote book (with pictures) to remind ourselves to surround ourselves with love each day. These would be a great start in that book!ReplyDelete
Great comments - some of them are favorites of mine too.ReplyDelete
Thank you so very much for stopping by to visit and for leaving a comment, I love hearing what you have to say and I read all of your messages.
All comments are moderated, so it might take a little while for your comment to appear, but it will once I have read it!

For those who are following this story sorry if there's delays between chapters. I'm trying to actually get the story that this was spun off of finished so I can reference it in this story. So yeah that's what's going on enjoy the next chapter in this plea for insanity
The weekend had ended just as soon as it began, Leo taking note of it to his siblings and friends. Monday everyone was back in school for the 2nd week and everything had just gotten a little harder, every class done with the intro and little review to get their brains rolling. Now was the time to the new stuff and for reading junk students always questioned when they'll need to know after school is over and of course the one thing Leo hated above everything else…
"Ugh! Look at all this homework I got, and it's only the first half of the day!" Leo said showing his couple of sheets of homework that were filled with questions to things he didn't know about to his friends and siblings at their lunch table.
"Oh come on Leo it's not that much" Dex said
"Of course you'd say that your great at school work"
"That's because I don't snooze in class" Dex said as Leo growled at him
"Oh come on Dex don't be mean he's doesn't fall asleep in class" Luna said coming to his defense as she took a bite of her sandwich
"Eh I beg to differ" Bob said as Leo glared over at him
"Ok one time in English class that's it, but it's hard to stay up when the teacher trys to read to us!"
"Whoa ok kids stop barking at each other" Miles said not liking it when friends fight even over something stupid, because it was always the stupid things people constantly fight over. "Besides we got other things to think about"
"Like what?" Leo asked
"Like who's gonna get picked to represent whoever's grade in the homecoming competition"
"Oh yeah" Patty said "I bet it's gonna be Akiza who represents the juniors"
"Oh thanks Patty but I don't think I'll get choosen, who knows it might be Miles"
"Fat chance" Miles proclaimed "I may be a good duelist but as a student not the greatest" he said as he took a bite of his apple he brought for lunch.
"Oh don't put yourself down like that" Dex said as Miles shook his head
"Nope, I'm only telling the truth. Tell 'em Akiza"
"I'm not going to say you're a bad student" Akiza said trying to be as modest as she could be "but you do like to copy off my homework a lot"
"Ha! You do it to you liar!" Leo said cocky, Miles and his dad both on multiple occasions told Leo not to rely so heavily on getting answers on his homework and tests from others like Dexter. However like most kids he just shrugged off what they said and kept doing it anyway.
"Hey at least I don't get caught every other week for doing it" Miles retorted as the cocky grin disappeared from Leo's face as he slumped back in his seat and crossed his arms with a annoyed expression on his face.
"it doesn't happen that often" Leo grumble as everyone got back to their lunch. As soon as they were done the headed for the next class which to everyone came as shock because a surprise was waiting for them there
"Pop quiz!?" Leo groaned as his teacher put down a 100 answer scan tron on his desk and continued to the rest
"More like a pop test but don't worry this is only for extra credit it wont count against you, please do your best"
"But if we don't have to do it why do we have to?" Leo groaned as Dex and Luna rolled their eyes.
"Leo please just do it and don't ask why" Luna asked as Leo rolled his eyes then started the test. After the third question he tried to look at Luna's test but was shot a glare by his teacher
"Eyes on your own test Leonard!" the teacher yelled as Leo glued his eyes back on his test.
While in another room Miles was zooming past this test, not really trying to hard because he barely knew that many things on this test. Apparently every student was taking this test at the same time right now. Why? They'd have to wait and see.
When the school bell rang and every student fled to their homes Miles, Leo and Luna were on their couch playing a fighting game to clear their heads of that test. Though it's hard when you keep talking about it…
"What was with that test I didn't know even half the stuff on there" Leo groaned as he punched in a combo that sent Miles flying across the screen
"Ugh! Leo stop spaming that move!"
"Hey learn to play the game" Leo retorted as they kept up the brawl
"But yeah I agree that test was hard my head still hurts from it" Miles said the grabbed a item then through at Leo who dodge and watched it hit Luna taking out one of her lives
"Why'd you keep the items on?" Luna asked
"It's not a tournament Luny"
"And it's funner with them on"
"More fun Leo" Luna corrected as Luna grabbed Leo's character and did a drop move
"Oh don't turn into a grammar nut Luna no one likes those. By the way what did you think of the test. Ou! Mine!" Leo yelled as his character dashed for a icon that could be used to unlock their character's finisher
"Oh no you don't!" Miles yelled as he punched Leo mid air then tried to get it
"Actually I thought the test was really easy, some parts were harder than the others but…" Luna said as she rushed on the screen and jumped off Miles character's head the grabbed the icon then a second later a giant wave of light beamed out from Luna's character and screen killed Miles and Leo's characters as they both groaned out in defeat as Luna smiled cockily, a rare thing for her "…I kept my eye on the ball" Miles sighed in defeat as he looked at his sister
"Well good job Luna" Miles said with a smile
"Yeah good game Luna, and I hope you did good on the test" Leo said with a smile as Luna sighed and asked
"How many questions did you copy off me?"Luna asked as Leo chuckled then switched the tv back to cable
"More like how many questions did I actually answer" Leo said with a laugh as Miles even chuckled a little. Luna just rolled her eyes and smiled, the way Leo was couldn't be helped but really she wouldn't want to change him at all, even if at times he cheats off her.
The next day…
School was going by normally everyone going about their days as quickly as possible, again no one really wanting to be there but still there because either they realized that school was necessary by this point or they're parents are still telling them to go every morning. Leo and Luna were in their respective math classes while Miles was in chemistry when once of the school officials came into Luna's class and whispered something into her ear
"Excuse me Luna" her teacher said bringing all eyes on her in the classroom, which Luna didn't like. She didn't like to have too much attention on herself "If your could please go with Mr. Sanatago to the office" a couple of immature students ouud at Luna causing the teacher to bark at them as Luna got up and quickly made up front and out of the room with Mr. Sanatago next to her walking her to the school office. As they walked they passed Leo's math class where he saw Luna walk in the halls through the window in the door
"Leo eyes front!" his teaher yelled
"Sorry!" he said as he quickly got back to work. Luna and the teacher took another turn and passed Miles chemistry class where he just barely saw her, he honestly couldn't tell if he did actually see her or if he was imagining things
"Miles back to work!" his teacher yelled as Miles brought his eyes back on his paper and got back to work. It wasn't like he was creating a disturbance by looking out in the hallways so why the heck did the teacher have to yell at him?
As soon as they got to the office he lead her to his room and told her to have a seat, finding her voice Luna took a seat and finally asked
"Did I do something wrong?" she asked as Mr. Sanatago chuckled as he gave her a piece of paper that said Academic achievement award, and on the bottom was a couple signatures from the chancellor and a couple other school officials.
"No not at all, in fact you did something very right" he said as he took his seat behind his desk "Do you remember that test you took the other day?" He asked as she nodded "Well while we haven't completed the grading of all the tests yet yours was one of the first we did grade and quite honestly Luna you've done better than anyone ever has on the test in the ten years we've been using it"
"Yep 87% usually a good student gets 75% and the highest we've had on that test before you has been a 82%. You should be proud of yourself." Luna cracked a small smile she was a little proud of herself "And along with that little piece of paper you'll be the class rep for your grade in the homecoming games along with the other grade reps. Not only that but the real reason I brought you down here was to tell you that if you want you can go up a grade after homecoming heck you might even be able to transfer to academy island"
"Wait… Really!?" She said shocked as he nodded
"Yep so what do you say to that?"
"Well that's awesome Mr. Sanatago, I cant even tell you how happy I am right now" she said with a bright smile as Mr. Sanatago grinned to
"I'm happy for you Luna, I bet you can't wait to tell all your friends" he said as that rung in Luna's ear, her friends. If she went up a grade her schedule would change dramatically and she wouldn't be able to see her friends as much as she does now, and if she actually was able to go to Academy Island she wouldn't be able to see them at all or her family. Her smile vanished as she thought about this "Luna you ok?" Mr. Sanatago asked as Luna shook out of her thought and looked at him
"Uh yeah I'm ok… can we discus me skipping a grade some other time, I need to think about it" she said as Mr. Sanatago nodded
"Ok Luna but think quick you have till the end of the semester to decide on what to do" he said as Luna nodded and got up
"Thank you Mr. Sanatago"
"Welcome Luna you can ask for a pass back to class at the front desk"
"Ok" she said then left his office and went back to class. When the day ended and the siblings got home it was only natural that the first things to come out of Leo and Miles' mouths were
"Why did they take you to the office?" they asked as Luna collapsed onto the couch, wanting some sleep
"They just wanted to tell me I'm the class rep for the homecoming games" she said, only giving half the truth
"Wait really?" Miles asked excited
"That's awesome Luna! Great job!" Leo said as Luna just turned her head to the back rest of the couch and sighed, Miles and Leo could instantly tell something was wrong
"Luna? What's wrong?" Leo asked Luna just said
"I'm tired, can you guys just let me sleep?" she asked as Leo and Miles looked at each other and shrugged to say 'yeah let's let her get her sleep' Leo walked as Miles stayed there and walked over to Luna and knelt down to her and rubbed her head as he said
"Really congratulations Luna, I'm proud of you and I bet dad will be too" he said then kissed her head "Get some sleep" he said then walked off to go hang with Leo. Leaving Luna on the couch as a tear escaped her eye and she let out another sigh as she curled up into a little ball and wondered 'What should I do?' and wishing she actually had a parent to help her decided what to do, like a real family would

Newton The Vagabond
The land between the guesthouse and the front gate, although it crossed a fair ten metres of light woodland, was far flatter than the land between the servants' quarters at the back of the estate and the front door of the main house. Nevertheless, Christophe and Alexandra kept their arms linked tightly, keeping each other from falling again.
As soon as the servants reached the front gate, it was clear that at least one guest had arrived well before the designated time.
Joshua Newton was a well-physiqued young man in his twenties, of marrying age yet without a wife or some distinct lady in his life. He was a good-looking worker of the wool-trade, low down in his business, yet a worker with a great potential inside him. His dark hazel eyes twinkled in the light with vain mischief, and his unusually long chestnut hair was doing what it often did: being blown along in the flowing wind. If there had been any smarter men of society in the proximity of Mr. Newton on this occasion, they would have scowled at the uncut shape of his hair as it was. Every inch of Mr. Newton emitted a saying, an implication that he was actually a warrior in his personal life; and it was that which aggravated the other businessmen when he put on the airs of one who always thought he could do, and be, the best.
"I say, man, can a chap get some entry here?"
A natural country-born lad, Joshua's accent was identical to the majority of the scullions', but tinged with the business-class accent of central London. The boy had, unusually, spent only a little time in business, jumping in at the late age of eighteen, after helping his late father out on his farm for a while. It could not have been there that Joshua had picked up the contacts he claimed to have had as a way into success, but it was known that the man had been a boy home-grown.
As she opened the gate, Alexandra closely observed the young man who stepped through. He was little known to the family; he was an acquaintance of the daughter, but Alexandra wondered whether the two young people actually knew anything on each other. It was a staff worry alone, as Alexandra doubted that the parents knew much of the girl's activities, that Daphne often mixed with the wrong crowd, without knowing what she was getting herself into.
"Sir," Christophe announced. "If you could make your way to the guesthouse, Mr. Winters and his family will be down at the quarter past."
"Will you show me the way, for God's sake, man?"
Mr. Newton removed a silver cigarette container from his coat pocket.
"I gather Miss Winters' father won't mind me smoking on his land." It was more of a statement than anything, and Alexandra suspected that the result would be the same, even if Christophe gave a negative.
"Of course. Whatever your good Sir wants," Christophe reluctantly complied. He often had a forced formality with guests. To Alexandra, the butler said, "Stay with the gate. No doubt there will be more."
