HOT OFF MY NIGHTSTAND...Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children


This was recommended by my friend Russ.  It is classified as young adult fiction.  Tim Burton is planning on making the movie.  It is a quick read, but ultimately I found it a bit dissatisfying and rather like the epilogue for a sequel.  Click here for a review.

REGARDING PICTURES AND VIDEOS ON THE BLOG

ALMOST ALL OF THE PICTURES CAN BE ENLARGED IF YOU SIMPLY CLICK ON THEM! SOME VIDEOS TAKE A MINUTE OR TWO TO LOAD WITH THIS NEW BLOG FORMAT. GIVE THEM A MINUTE AND THEY WILL APPEAR!



ABOUT THE BLOG

This BLOG was primarily focused on a gay male audience. As time has gone on we have happily welcomed straight men and women, lesbians, bisexuals and trangenders. My BLOG is meant for ALL people: no matter race, creed, sexuality, religion, etc. Some images may not be "your cup of tea" but as I stated the blog was designed originally for gay men and I was actually surprised when straight people became fans. I work very hard to post things that everyone will be interested in. However, be warned in advance that some images may not be your taste, but still are not pornographic and no more "dangerous" to view than a cologne ad in a national magazine. Additionally, this is NOT a typical blog. Yes, I do Blog...but not every day..thus you can think of this little corner of my web more as an online magazine. Thanks for being part of the Life of Bratprince!

About The Bratprince

Bratprince was a nickname given to me in high school. I live in the heart of Dallas, Texas. Our house was built in 1917 and sits on two acres. I live with my husband, Gary of 17 years. We were married in California a few years ago (one of only 18,000 couples allowed to do so). After years of collecting, I have what is considered the finest Imperial Russian collection in the South which has been photographed for numerous magazines. We have two beloved dogs, Paley and Diego..Diego was our 91 year old neighbors dog...we took him when she went into assisted living...but she still gets to visit him all the time and our cat, the BLOG star, Astrid. I work as a National Sales Manager for various companies and own and run a small public relations and sales representation firm. Articles I have written are published in a number of magazines. In addition, I currently finished working on a novel which is now in the hands of editors and agents. Feel free to contact me at Bratprince@aol.com or follow me on Twitter @williamkolb.
