If it wasn't for bad luck...

     It’s Friday the 13th! Are you superstitious? Superstitions are any belief that is based on fear and is inconsistent with the known laws of science. We’ve all heard the common superstitions that lead to bad luck, but I found a few new ones that I have never heard of that I’d like to share.

*It is bad luck to turn a loaf of bread upside down after a slice has been cut from it.
*It is bad luck to leave the house through a different door than one used to come into it.
*If a candle blows out, evil spirits are nearby.

     How about one for good luck.

*If you catch a falling leaf on the first day of Autumn you will not catch a cold all winter. Just so you know, I’m going to take the entire staff and the children outside to catch leaves this Fall and see if it works.

     Anyone have a superstition to share?

     In Action Thriller, Bolt Action from Champagne Books, Detective Leslie Bolt is a smart talking, gun hording, Harley riding investigator forced to work a serial murder case with her sexy ex-lover.  After a childhood of abuse suffered at the hand of her father, Leslie sleeps with a Ruger Blackhawk .357 under her pillow, has a Browning A-Bolt Stainless Stalker rifle in her broom closet, and a Saturday Night Special stashed in her road-hog cookie jar. The body count mounts and Detective Bolt must conquer her own past, as she races to capture “The State Quarter Killer” before her sister is the next victim.  Secrets of the past, murder, deception, sexual tension, and “The State Quarter Killer”, Bolt Action offers it all.
