Welcome to the Trailer Tuesday series!
Today, I am pleased to feature a trailer from Soul Mate author Rose Vanden Eynden.
Author of three best-selling books on a variety of metaphysical topics, Rose also entertains and inspires us with her fiction. Her ultimate goal is to help all of us recognize our own Divinity and joyfully express it in our lives.
In Merlyn’s Raven, Rose skillfully weaves legend and romance together in fifth-century Wales.
Enjoy!

I’ll organize my cancer.
That’s the first thought that came to mind when Dr. McGillivray started talking about my treatments. As she spoke, my well-developed left brain itemized all the tasks that had to be completed over the next ten months. And of course, everything had to be done perfectly and by me. That’s how I had survived during the first fifty years of my life. Or more precisely, the first forty-nine years, seven months and seven days.

Hope to see you there!
My Goddess Fish blog tour starts this Wednesday, November 6.
At yesterday’s Agvantage Toastmaster meeting, I was the Table Topicsmaster. This is my favorite portion of the club meeting, and I welcome the opportunity to practice thinking and speaking quickly. As Topicsmaster, I announced the topic and called on members, one at a time, to give impromptu one- to two-minute talks. With Halloween just around the corner, I created a series of questions using the holiday as a theme.
Preamble
I am the fairy godmother of Halloween. I bestow upon each of you $500 to be spent on one of the following Halloween related scenarios…
Scenarios
1. Design the Halloween costume of your dreams.
2. I am sending you back to the Halloween of your sixteenth year. What type of costume would you wear?
3. Decorate your workplace for Halloween.
4. Organize a Halloween party for the children in your neighborhood.
5. There is a lot of waste at Halloween. How would you make Halloween greener?
6. Throw a Halloween brunch for your friends.
7. You have decided to cruise the streets on Halloween night. How would you decorate yourself and your car (motorcycle)?
8. Provide healthy treats for the children on Halloween night.
9. Create the perfect Halloween bash for you and your friends.
10. Create a Halloween wonderland on your lawn (if you live in a house) or lobby (if you live in an apartment).
11. Decorate your child’s classroom or daycare center for Halloween.
12. I am sending you back to your first Halloween. What type of costume would you wear?
13. I am allowing you and your partner to skip Halloween and have a spectacular date night instead. What would you do?
14. Make your street safer for Halloween.
15. Dress up as your favorite superhero or celebrity.
When I announced the release of Between Land and Sea, a novel about an overweight, middle-aged mermaid, I was surprised by the subsequent comments.
The typical male response was a Duchenne smile followed by a puzzled expression and several pointed questions…
Why is she so old?
Just how overweight is she?
What happened to her?
The men had preconceived notions of what a mermaid should look like—wavy auburn tresses, mesmerizing green eyes and a curvaceous twenty something body.

The lawyer shook his head. “I still don’t understand why your mermaid has to be old and fat.”
“Fifty-three is not that old.” I ignored the weight issue.
He persisted. “It is when it comes to mermaids. Why couldn’t you just let her be young, thin and beautiful?”
Thankfully, the conversation was interrupted by the facilitator’s call to resume the workshop. A few minutes more and I might have lost patience with the annoying lawyer who simply wouldn’t accept my vision of an older mermaid.

Searching for a bible reading was the farthest thing from my mind during that first month after receiving the diagnosis of inflammatory breast cancer. Between appointments and all sorts of tests—biopsy, bone density, ultrasounds—I had very little time to do much else. Once the chemo treatments started, I was barely able to focus on my dwindling list of daily tasks.
