I have been working hard at finishing my first novel. I am on track for my personal deadline of August 8th and really excited because my main character has had a turn of events. And it involves a very cute man.

I have a bit of a crush on this fictional character myself so I’m looking forward to writing today’s scene after I get this post out. This post about crushes.

Do you remember your first crush?

I remember mine.

It was grade two (I believe) and his name was Bjarne Saxhoug. I think his family were Norwegian or Swedish…definitely Scandinavian. Of course, I denied the crush but my sisters used to tease me about it.

Many years later, when I was 12, my first celebrity crush developed. I was smitten for several years and I still have the hots for this guy. Even though he is past 55 years old, he still looks damn fine!!! I thought it was pretty cool when I learned that my (now) husband and Billy Idol share a birthday. All my teenager dreams of marrying my idol, sort of came true.

Over the years, I have had many celebrity crushes. Though Billy will always hold the #1 position, here are my other significant crushes.
