I love the month of October.

Fall is in.

The leaves are turning pretty colors, and, of course, Halloween comes. I love the spooky day.

And then there's must-see fall TV.

Lots of new shows coming on and old favorites like SUPERNATURAL (go Sam and Dean, you sexy boys you) and AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL (Heather, I'm cheering for you!).

By the most part, I'm not much of TV watcher. I haven't gotten hooked on HEROES, or GREY'S ANATOMY. I don't watch DANCING WITH THE STARS or THE BIGGEST LOSER.

There have been a couple new shows that have piqued my interest. GOSSIP GIRL, based on the books by Cecily von Ziegesar, has totally won me over. I'm loving the vibe of the show. The young actors and actresses are doing a great job.

Is it wrong for a woman my age to relate to that? Hmm, I guess I haven't grown up much.

The other show I think I'm going to dig is MOONLIGHT. I liked the pilot episode. I'm loving the main character Mick St. John and the actor playing him. Not drop dread gorgeous but very very alluring. He could bite me on the neck or anywhere he'd like to, thank you very much.

The one show I was anticipating, the BIONIC WOMAN, hasn’t so far impressed me much. The only reason I wanted to watch it was because of one of my favorite actresses Katee Sackhoff (Starbuck from BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, thee greatest show ever on television) is playing the baddie on the show. So I only want to watch the episodes she's on. I hope it satisfies my action gene that is fully ingrained in me. I love me some action TV and movies.

I love to write action too. My story QUICK SILVER in the ALLURING TALES anthology is all about action. The follow-up to that story SILVER WATERS which will be in the next anthology, ALLURING TALES II, middle part of 2008, has lots of action, too. Both in and out of the bed. Can't wait for that one to come out.

Are you loving the new shows coming out this year? How about old favorites? What are you watching?
