finding calm

By Cat Johnson

What?? Two posts within two days? Yes, I’m procrastinating. Don’t judge me. Anyway, here’s the thing…my life is weird. It is a dichotomy which might give a lesser person whiplash. It certainly hasn’t done much for my sanity–or perhaps it has. Maybe it’s saved me, because when one part gets too annoying, or stressful, or... »

my favorite things: cowgirl creamery cheese

By Cat Johnson

A few months ago I posted on another group blog I belong to about Purple Cowboy wine. Well here is the perfect accompaniment to that–Cowgirl Creamery Cheeses. As I’ve mentioned here before, my friends and I are foodies. We get together weekly at one house and basically cook and eat together. I won’t say it’s... »

i have become what you always thought i was

By Cat Johnson

I have a romance story published. Boy meets girl. Boy’s best friend has a crush on girl. Boy hides his feelings until they are thrown together into a deadly situation, then boy and girl give in to their feelings. One single night of sex ensues. Boy loves girl. Girl loves boy, but boy leaves... »

life imitating art

By Cat Johnson

Years ago I wrote a book, the idea for which wasn’t even mine. Here’s how it went way back then… Me: I need an idea for another cowboy book. The Cowboy: Write about a romance writer who asks a cowboy to help her write a book about cowboys. Me: Haha. That’s not very original. Fast forward to 8... »

to each his (or her) own

By Cat Johnson

What are you doing for Valentines Day? Romantic dinner? Flowers? Lingerie? Then you’re probably among the majority. I, however, rarely do what’s expected. I wanted something totally different for Valentines Day and I’m happy to say I got it. I wanted to take a roadtrip from NY to NC to watch the professional bull rider... »

piggin’ strings–they’re not just for rodeos

By Cat Johnson

I tend to think out of the box. It’s my job as a romance writer. Normal people see things as they are. I see things as I can remake them to suit my purposes. For instance, while other romance authors are spending tons of money, preaching to the choir by placing their bookcover in... »

fresh from the garden…

By Cat Johnson

…the famous Madison Square Garden in NYC, that is. My life truly is a strange dichotomy at times. I’m just back from a weekend full of PBR–the NYC Invitational and the opening weekend of the 2011 season. For the first time, I brought my friends with me. You have to know the background to appreciate... »

a year of sexy–happy anniversary to me

By Cat Johnson

I realized it was just about this time last year that I joined the Eat Something Sexy blogs. What a year it has been. Since October of 2009 new bloggers have joined us here, Amy has a released another book, and I’ve had a few releases myself. So is the cycle of life. A year... »

all the world’s a stage…

By Cat Johnson

“All the world’s a stage, And all the men and women merely players” ~Shakespeare Yes, the great bard was correct. The world–life–is a stage and at times I wish the contracts would expire for some of the bit players in my own life so I can either kill off their character or hold an open call... »

say i won’t…

By Cat Johnson

I was watching pro bull riding on TV a few months ago and I noticed a bunch of the riders had the words “Say I Won’t” on their vests. Being the Google queen I of course searched who and what this sponsor was. I was pleasantly surprised to find it’s a line of clothing,... »
