By Kate Carlisle
The best of intentions get blown into the wind like a dandelion sometimes. Take this blog, for instance. Earlier this week, I had every intention of getting up bright and early this morning and posting a blog all about the need for meeting our deadlines.
How ironic.
Instead, yesterday morning I drove 140 miles out to the desert to take care of some things for my mother. I spent all day and part of this morning out there, then drove back home–and only then did I remember that I had a blog to write.
Ah, well. Anyway, instead of my brilliant and passionate spiel about meeting deadlines, I’ll simply make everyone’s day and post a photo of the man who inspired me as I wrote the hero in my new mystery series. My character is a former British Commander turned security agent. With that sort of background, who else could inspire me more than … well, you know.
So here’s a little inspiration for the remainder of your Sunday afternoon.
Cheers!

Kate,this was PERFECT for me. I’ve sick of deadlines (mine) and could use a little fantasy instead!
Hey Maureen! Yup, I was gonna do a whole rant on deadlines and meeting obligations….and look what happened. Sigh. But hey, Daniel Craig is a fine substitute for a rant! LOL
LOL, Kate! Yes, that is ironic!!
Hope Mom’s feeling better!
