Monday: Accidental Powers; Guest Post with Dakota Cassidy



Welcome Dakota Cassidy and thank you for guest posting.  Dakota is author of several series: Accidental, Hell and the Ex Trophy Wives series.  Oh- but it doesn't stop there, Dakota knows how to turn up the heat, light the fire and warm the sheets with her Erotic Romance titles from Liquid Silver, Changeling Press, and Ellora's Cave.  Be sure to peek at her new website.



Felicia and I, wanted to learn more about Dakota but without the normal Q&A segment.  So we (mainly, Felicia) decided to ask Dakota:



"If I could "Accidentally" develop powers what 10 would I pick?" 


And this is what Dakota had to say:

"Okay--If I were to accidentally develop powers, they'd be --

1. The power to lift my ass with no exercise, and no surgery, and so my carpets would quit complaining about ass-burn :)
2. The power to lift my boobs so they won't keep getting stuck in my waistband.
3. As if I weren't vain enough already after 1 and 2 (LOLLOL)--the power to erase my double chin.
4. The power to make my 16 year old instantly 18 and get him off my back about stupid things like food and electricity. All of which I consider luxuries. LMAO
5. The power to save all the suffering, abused, homeless animals in the world. Sappy, but true. I'm an animal lover. Just ask my 6 dogs and 2 cats :)
6. The power to banish the color yellow in clothing. Because I swear by all that's color holy--it looks good on almost no one's person :) Walls, flowers, cars--awesome. Covering your boobs? not so much.
7. The power to change the weather to suit me--it would never be hot in TX again, people!
8. The power to turn back time. Because by hell--I SHOULD have been Miss America 1984. LOLLOL
9. The power to fly. It's the only way I'll ever be able to afford Italy :)
10. The power to rid the world of stupid people. You know, the one's who don't use turn signals and cut you off? Or the people who don't know who goes first at a four-way stop sign? LOLLOL"

My 10:

1: To borrow Dakota's #1, #2, #3
2: I am with her on #7: I would want the power to make TX never go above 85 (though if it was just up to me, 75). I suppose I would go with 85 for those people who insist on summer type weather.
3: The ability to have the time to adopt at least 2 more dogs. There are 3 in the house but I wish I had time for more.
4) The ability to know what my dog is trying to tell me. Tonks is a bit like---"Felicia could you please understand me now please".
5) The ability to read technical manuals once and commit them to memory. That would be very helpful in my day job.
6) The ability to add more hours to a day without losing sleep when I just can't get it all done.
7) The ability to teleport--I love to travel but the going there/back (unless a planned road trip) is just draining.
8) The ability to find the perfect Burberry scarf---I have always wanted a specific one they quit making forever ago.
9) The ability to finish school faster than I am going to be able too.
10) The ability to be as creative as many of the authors I read though I would do it with crochet :)

While I love Dakota's #2, I would want the power to be in two places at one time. That way I could make the money I need at the day job while being home enjoying my family and reading more books!!

Paranormal Haven said...

Haha, I love Dakota's #10. Could not agree with her more. I'd also like to...

1. Have the power to be thin while eating whatever I want and not exercising.

2. Have the power to be able to move things with my mind. I'd have so much fun messing with people :-)

3. Have the power to be able to make my bank account say whatever amount I want it to.


4. Have the power to read faster without missing any details because I swear that will be the only way I will ever be able to get my TBR pile under control.

Crap, Paranormal Haven--what was I thinking? I wanna trade in my power to turn my kid into an 18 yr old for the one about eating whatever you want and being thin!

LOLLOL! Good one :)

I would want to "Accidentally" develop the ability to fly and a photographic memory that will make test taking a whole lot easier!

Hmm...

I've always wanted to defy gravity. Do that and most of the drooping stuff wouldn't droop. However, you may bounce like those girls on anime. :)

I love the rescuing animals one. Oh yea... no animals shall suffer.

I want my smart stick. That is a mythical object that allows you to smack people over the head and they magically get common sense. Oh, and empathy. That is a good side-effect.

I'd also want the healing power. You can heal those wonderful people (including self).

I don't know if I want any more powers. I know I don't want the one to know what my dogs are saying to me. I already understand too much. I don't want to know any more. ;)

Fun. :)

I would like to be able to teleport. Just think of a place and *bing!* I'm there. No more dealing with rush hour traffic. Being able to go any place in the world whenever I wanted.

My 'Accidental' powers would be:
1. Teleportation, no more paying for holidays.
2. Paranormal Havens being thin while eating anything I want.
3. Telekinesis, see that chocolate bar over there? I now don't actually have walk to get it. It comes to me.
4. Save all mistreated animals and humans. No one should have to suffer.
5. To be able to bring book characters to life. I'd start with Acheron, then Vayl, then Jean-Claude, all the Black Dagger Brotherhood & the Midnight Breed boys......I'd even be generous and share them with you ladies.

Hilarious, thank you! :-) I'm with Dakota on no. 7,8,9,10.

If I could "Accidentally" develop a superpower I would like to be able to "beam"/"blink": that I had just to think of a locationa nd poof i'd appear there! I could drink my morning café au lait in Paris, eat lunch ina cozy trattoria in Italy and then shop a bit in NY in the afternoon. I could travel the world without spending fortunes and time on transportation and I could just drop by for a nice sunset in Greece and then be back home in a minute. Would love this superpower!

Oh Em Squeeeeee! DC is a TX gal like me! Most awesomest thing ever! Her would be powers are super fun! She is one smart chicka!

If I could accidentally develop a super power it would be to become ASkars super hot girlfriend that he can't get enough of, and wants to worship day and night. A little turning the table would be nice, JS! :D
