Hope you had a wonderful weekend (it was a holiday weekend here in the
US).  Athena and I just spent 6 fabulous days with 14 of our closest
college friends and nine of their children (all 5 years and younger)
in one house.  You certainly learn a lot about relationships that way.

I've just finished my third book, 50 Secrets of Blissful
Relationships.  You can read about it at

Have a joyful week -- Michael

Eric Baglio of Mira Loma, California won last week's contest.

This week's contest is back on romantic ideas.  The theme of this week
is LOVE LETTERS.  How have you used a love letter creatively to
express your love.  The creativity can be the "paper" you wrote it on,
the ink you used, how you delivered it or even how you can up with the
love note.

The winning idea will receive a new copy of the beautiful book Love
Letters: An Anthology of Desire ($22.95).

A TRADITIONAL PAPER FIRST
by Dee King
http://theromantic.com/

Our first anniversary was coming up and I wanted all my gifts to be
the traditional gift of 'paper'.

My wife is a big fan of two 'day time dramas.'  I searched the
Internet until I found a couple of fan club sites with contact
information to the networks.  I was able to send an email to the
networks explaining that my anniversary was coming up, my wife has
been a viewer since a young age and could I get a couple of
autographed pictures for my anniversary gift to her.

One of the shows sent three autographed pictures (one was even
personalized for my wife).  The other show sent a script autographed
by the cast.  When I gave her this gift during our anniversary dinner,
she couldn't believe it.  She went on and on about how she loved it,
and how much trouble I went through to get it for her.

The Internet is a gold mine of ideas if you will take a little time to
search for what is special to you or your loved one.
