Just another WordPress.com site. I’m an author of paranormal, contemp and historical romance. I like to inject sizzle and heat into my stories but with a touch of emotions to ground the story, because it can’t all be about the romance…sheesh! I live in Southern Louisiana with my husband, who loves me enough to let me stay holed up writing when I can, and one kitten. I love to hear from readers of romance, or anything between the covers of a book! Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here.

Some Assimilation Required: January 2014
http://chrisbaldauf.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 29, 2014. Recently, freezing rain shocked our south Louisiana sensibilities. As I sat warm in my living room, I watched some brown finches duck under a leafy green bush near the porch to escape the icy drizzle. While I pondered the small birds plight, white accumulated on the wood planks of our wharf. Mist rose from the chilled river in buffs that scurried across the ripples from the North Wind's breath. Where is the eagle? Where does he roost in an unlikely storm? But not his majesty.

Some Assimilation Required: January 2015
http://chrisbaldauf.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 22, 2015. My passion for prison ministry is officially married with my writing. A column I call,. Beyond the Wire , is now a feature in a local magazine,. The Voice of Southwest Louisiana. A brainchild of my early morning muse, writing journal articles is a stretch from my comfortable fiction where I’m allowed to wax poetic and lie. I chose The Voice. Visit The Voice of SWLA. And see my January article, “Crime Fighters” under. Favorite Columns. Let me know your opinion. The Voice of SWLA.

Some Assimilation Required: October 2013
http://chrisbaldauf.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 28, 2013. On a recent trip to the Grand Canyon, I used the excuse to visit a cousin I hadn’t seen in years. It was good to catch up and share old memories. A gracious host, we had the run of her home that was filled with her various collections. Every flat surface contained fun and whimsical collectables from cookie jars to cartoon action toys. Returning to my home turf, I started thinking about my collections. What have I got sitting on the shelves of my ego? Links to this post. This is ...

Monday, February 9, 2015. Along with my family and writing, prison ministry is my passion. In January I was elected President of the Board for. The Open Door Women’s Prison and Re-Entry Ministry.

Some Assimilation Required: Throw Me Something, Mister!
http://chrisbaldauf.blogspot.com/2015/02/throw-me-something-mister.html
Tuesday, February 17, 2015. Throw Me Something, Mister! It’s Carnival Season in Louisiana. The French tradition of Mardi Gras is upon us. Children are out of school for three days, businesses close to accommodate throngs of parade goers, and noisy revelers dance in the street. My cousin, a snowbird from Indiana, is visiting. I encouraged her to come this week, so we could “pass a good time”. Sunday we hit the parade route to see the Children’s Parade. The parade’s started! Fat Tuesday—this afternoo...

Some Assimilation Required: November 2014
http://chrisbaldauf.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 26, 2014. Driving home from an early morning workout at the local gym, I saw it. A huge flock of birds dancing and dipping in the sky. A black ribbon of feathers, dancing to the beat of some music I wasn't hearing. Check out the video from England. Many more birds than I saw. Https:/ www.youtube.com/watch? Links to this post. Thursday, November 20, 2014. I sit on the Board for The Open Door Prison and Re-Entry Ministry,. I’d like to state: not everyone in jail is guilty no matte...

Some Assimilation Required: June 2014
http://chrisbaldauf.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 7, 2014. Where were you October 1962? I was in the third grade - almost 9 years old when Kennedy went toe to toe with Russia's Prime Minister Khrushchev. A few nights ago, I watched a PBS presentation, The Man Who Saved The World. It seems a Russian submarine commander refused to go along with his comrades. It took three keys to program and fire a nuclear missile aboard the subs prowling the waters off the coast of Cuba. The commander spurned the idea. Bun candy bars aside, I think it was ...

Some Assimilation Required: May 2014
http://chrisbaldauf.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 28, 2014. At the Blog Hop. Sounds like a 50's tune with a millennium twist. Thanks goes to my friend Linda Todd, "Incurable Itch of LF Todd" http:/ lindaheberttodd.blogspot.com. Who tagged me to answer some questions that burn in the minds of my readers. 1 What am I working on? I'm putting together a query package for a children's book I wrote a few years ago and just recently revised, Al-lee Alligator and the Big Fat Lie. 2 How does my work differ from others in my genre?
