Welcome to #L&SR’s #Wednesday’s Blog Challenge 6-10-20 – Favorite poems, short stories, or novellas. Wow this one is easy. so many to choose from. Please have a seat, grab an iced tea or lemonade out of the cooler. Be sure and try a chocolate chip or peanut butter cookie. Lets get started with Favorite poems, short stories, or novellas.
This weeks topic is another another slam dunk. First let me say up front, I’m not really a poem or short story type of gal. Novellas, I can get into.
Novellas – Deerbourne Inn Series is a great small town series written by multiple authors at The Wild Rose Press. There are a number of them and each unique but set in the small town of Willow Springs, Vermont. Whether you love to read Contemporary Romance, Mystery, Time Travel, Historical, Thriller, or SyFy, You can’t go wrong with these novellas.
I would be amiss if I didn’t mention my novella it’s part of the Deerbourne Inn Series. Mystic Maples. I had a blast writing this book. A bit of time-travel, mystery, and magic is the small town of Willow Springs makes for a fun romantic adventure and an escape for the reader. A captivating furbaby by the name of Rag-A-Muffin steals the story. Earth/Fire witch, Mercy’s insatiable curiosity finds her trespassing under a full moon on enchanted land. The owner discovers her and sparks fly, both figuratively and physically. If you look close at the cover, you’ll see that Mercy has one blue and one green eye, just like my character. Sil, the hero is absolutely swoon-worthy, don’t you think? Silvanus is not without his secrets. His gypsy/fae blood has always been a thorn in his side. But when Mercy discovers his secrets, his well-ordered life unravels and they’re catapulted into the past to right a wrong. What fun!!
Novellas – One Scoop or Two Series – Another summer series written by multiple authors at The Wild Rose Press. Summer fun, ice cream and delectable tales written in a variety of genres. A few of my favorites are:
Devil’s Food Ripple with a Cherry on Top -Fenady Clark’s dream of owning an ice cream parlor has inspired her through some of life’s hardest challenges. Just when the grand opening’s within reach, that wicked rogue, Sebastian Bane, opens shop and starts serving Fenady’s designer flavors, all renamed. She suspects he’s using black magic to poach her recipes, and if she weren’t a good witch instead of a bad witch, she’d whip up a spell and retaliate.
Sebastian’s come all the way from England to establish his family’s business near Salem. He can’t explain how he and the lovely Fenady keep creating the same ice cream confections, unless it’s enchantment, or fate. Is there room in town for both their dreams? And what will it take to convince an angry white witch she needs him in her life?
Vanilla with a Twist – Tandy Blakemore spends her days running her New England ice cream parlor, single-parenting her teenage son, and trying to keep her head above financial water.
Engineer Deacon Withers is on an enforced vacation in the tiny seaside town of Beacher’s Cove. Overworked, stressed, and lonely, he walks into Tandy’s shop for a midday ice cream cone and gets embroiled in helping her fix a broken piece of equipment. Can the budding friendship that follows lead to something everlasting?
Root Brew Float – Josephine Brevil has lived hundreds of years haunted by the horrors she experienced during the Salem Witch Trials. She takes great care to hide her powers, though serving a Root Brew Float laced with a magic potion now and again never hurt anybody. The Order sends her to Massachusetts to deal with a paranormal threat, and she meets the young and handsome widower, Clarence Watts. However, being with him comes with a choice. How can she choose between the man she loves and the magic she holds dear?
One Scoop or Two is a new series and new novellas are being added each week. Now to be fair, I’ve read all of the ones released, yet. But I am working on them. Pssst… I have a novella in this series too, but it’s still in edits. So watch for Chocolate Raspberry Magic coming by end of summer, fingers crossed.
**This may not count as poems, but I just remembered the Dr. Seuss books of my youth. I loved those books and their rhymes, didn’t you?
So there you have it, favorite poems, short stories, or novellas. Do you have favorite poems, short stories, or novellas? I’d love to hear from you. Please list them in the comments below.
Alas, I must return to my writing cave where deadlines loom with edits on my upcoming release HIDDEN GYPSY MAGIC, Chocolate Raspberry Magic, and on a new WIP sixth book in A Demon’s Witch Series(very exciting and coming along very well) so let’s see what other authors list as their favorite poems, short stories, or novellas .

School’s nearly out. Looking an exciting read to whisk you away from your ordinary world into a magical, fantasy adventure in Ireland? Got just the thing. Mystic Maples. When Mercy discovers the truth, Silvanus’ well-ordered life unravels and they’re catapulted into the past to right a wrong.
A bit about Mystic Maples:
Earth/Fire witch Mercy Rose’s insatiable curiosity always gets her in trouble. After a break-in at her Colorado flower shop, and a court battle that comes to a screeching halt in her favor, she arrives at Deerbourne Inn for a much-needed getaway. Looking for peace and quiet, she finds just the opposite in a startling handsome but mysterious man and his dog.
Silvanus Forrest’s gypsy/fae heritage is a double-edged sword. The land he inherited from his parents is rumored to be enchanted. But when Mercy discovers the truth, his well-ordered life unravels, and they’re catapulted into the past to right a wrong. Along the way their lives intertwine, and they discover the true meaning of family and love. Will they change the past in time to save their future?
