What do I like to watch
Once the kids are tucked into bed at night, it's my turn to enjoy a little television, not that there anything wrong with PBS Kids
or Noggin in the afternoon... SIGH... 
Primetime Television
At the moment I'm really enjoying American Idol, Smarter Than A Fifth Grader and re-runs of Family Guy, which I never thought I'd end up loving so much. I'm looking forward to the return of Hell's Kitchen. There's something so satisfying about watching that brash Chef Ramsey. He simply fascinates me, though I've no idea why... I recently tuned in to the BBC here on American cable television as well. I find myself enjoying some of the most unusual British television shows at times.
But, deep down I'm a Food Network and TLC sort of girl. I grew up watching PBS television in the evenings, so shows associated with cooking, science and learning usually have my attention when my "shows" aren't on...
One of my worst habits at night is flipping stations over and over, staying up far later than I should, watching re-runs of shows
I've already seen at least a dozen times or more... 
Why do I do that?
Historical Medieval Fiction

About the author: For
years I was an avid reader of historical romantic fiction... At least I was before I began writing my own novels. Before I started writing, my favorite
novelist was definitely the author Julie Garwood. I would have read anything she wrote. If I should say my style of writing mirrored anyone's, it would
have to be hers. She was just such a fantastic storyteller. Others who I read faithfully were Catherine Coulter, Linda Howard, Jude Deveraux... And I was a fan
of the irresistable Silhouette Special Edition novels as well... Now a days that kind of time is no longer a luxury. As the mother of two, I'm lucky to
find time to read the back of a cereal box... In the quiet hours of the night though, I do manage to tuck myself away in a quiet corner to relax and
write...
Calignous - My newest novel coming to The
Quiet Corner this fall!
On sale now! Silent Mysteries...
Some Wonderful Movie Links
Somewhere In Time (Christopher Reeves)

Featured Videos This Week
First? Here's a peek at the medieval novel I wrote that keeps me feeding my family...
AND NOW! THE J&J CLIPS!
BRAND NEW! This incredibly moving video is one that I had to share with you the moment I saw it. It was created to spotlight Jack rescuing Jennifer from the bridge. The haunting music playing in the background fits this video like a glove.
Clip #1: How's about a little dip, J&J style? Could holding Jennifer so close effect Mr. Deveraux's determination to remain friends? You'll have to watch and see...
Clip #2: Tango, anyone? Perhaps the second time around the dance floor would be Jack's undoing, eh? In an attempt to make up for his deception the night before, Jack takes Jennifer in his arms for a second time on the cruise...
Clip #3: "I love you, Jack..." Sweeter words could never have flowed from Jennifer's lips than they did during this monumental moment on The Cruise of Deception. I still find myself enjoying this clip time and again. It was simply beautiful!
Clip #4: This is simply one of my all time favorite J&J video creations. I have never found one that moves me more! It is Everything: By Lifehouse! It features the love between Jack Deveraux and Jennifer Horton from Days of Our Lives, and it's just beautiful from start to finish. Check it out! How can you NOT love this song?
Clip #5: This is a video which will probably remain fixed on this page forever. It is one created by our own DI2CJNJ from Devoted to Deveraux. It features the infamous kiss that Jack and Jennifer shared at the Spectator. It was created with an enormous amount of love for the writing project Diane and I worked on together for Miranda's Corner... It's, I Believe In You - One moment in time...
Clip #6: DI2CJNJ said it best in her description for this video. Jack loves Jennifer, it's just that simple. I was so inspired by this touching video that I felt myself wanting to update all of the videos on this page because of it. Here is, Jack & Jennifer: All I Know...

Awww.... The Party's Over!

In hindsight, I'm sure I knew it was only a matter of time. Unfortunately though, the party is over. It is with a heavy heart that I'm going to have to shut down the link to the Days Video Page on The Quiet Corner. The pages will still remain active for anyone who has the link bookmarked, but you will no longer be able to get into it from the main page on The Quiet Corner. The big sweeping hand has come along to swat certain websites on the butt for posting so many old clips of the show.... -
More clips coming soon!

It was a lot of fun working with all of the Jack Deveraux clips for The Quiet Corner last year. It came time for me to take a break from it this winter, but very soon the fun will begin again! By the end of April, my work on publishing Silent Mysteries should be finished, at which time I plan to begin working on adding in new Jack Deveraux clips to TQC. Thanks to Roz of Devoted... -

How could you NOT love this precious first story for Jack and Jennifer. I posted the last two scenes from this storyline on The Quiet Corner. Jack has learned that Hannah is going to be taken away from Jennifer. Knowing the news is going to hurt her, he decides he wants to be the one to try and tell her. And when Sally's parents come to take the baby, he's there for Jennifer to hold on to... -

Welcome kiddies! I was going to work on the IBIY kiss videos today, but I was inspired by a music video I have posted as my favorite... There was a quick clip from the firetruck adventures storyline and I had to watch it again. I had to clip it for you! Five new portions have been added to TQC. Come and enjoy these special memories again!
Who am I
I just recently completed my first full length medieval romance novel called Silent Mysteries. You can enjoy reading that book and the rest of my work at http://www.thequietcorner.com. There is a lot more to love over there than just Silent Mysteries, but please come and discover the mystery of Kyra at Damon Manor...
For those who enjoy Matthew Ashford and Jack Deveraux the way I do, you can also enjoy the wonderful collection of clips I've put there as a special treat. Before I found D2D, I was enjoying the same form of entertainment that I see so many other people are...
The main reason I'm now a member of Yuku is the wonderful compay of The Deveraux Clan. What a wonderful bunch of people over there!
What else do I enjoy?
Some other hobbies I like quite a lot are knitting, quilting and learning to cook different things like bread, pasta and desserts from scratch. Hey, I'm a mom... Although now that the kids are getting older I find myself able play with these crafts less and less... LOL!
Want to know more?
There is a small biography you can read at: http://thequietcorner.com/Misc_Pages/about_author.htm to learn some more interesting tidbits about me and my life. I've led a pretty unique one so far, that's for sure.

I appreciate it.
Yes, it does fit him well, doesn't it?
I actually made him two.
He posted one at the soapcity board.
I made this one because I didn't like the way the first one turned out. lol
I can be so picky like that.
Anyway, thanks again.
