Writing from VA

A lot has been going on since leaving Florida for Virginia, a temporary move, I hope. Familial obligations have called me back to the Old Dominion, but the silver lining in the cloud is that a change of scenery has helped stimulate my writing....kind of. I'm plotting two books, one set here in NoVa and the other in my adopted hometown of Sarasota (actually Siesta Key). Today I am working on the sixth installment of the Heat Series which is set in Florida.

Let's see, what else?

Thankfully the sequel to Cruising with Destiny, one of my personal favorites, was accepted for publication by Siren. The working title is Cruising into Destiny: Commitment Ceremony, about, you guessed it, a commitment ceremony. You didn't see that coming, huh? Also I had the first installment of the PUMP series, The Men of PUMP: Grand Opening, edited by a wonderful new-to-me editor. She's awesome. Awesome! Although she questioned my use of the word "bud" for anus. Hehehehehe. I stand by bud! I am very excited about this new series written in the style of Tales of the City by Armistead Maupin, or 44 Scotland Street by my favorite Scotsman, Alexander McCall Smith. There are three main characters but they share the spotlight with quite a few more. I can't wait to get this series out to you. And I can't wait for the cover reveal! They will be great because they are being done by the super-fab and always lovely, Jinger Bruton, artist extraordinaire.

Okay, so that's about it for now. I will keep you posted with more updates soon. Stay safe, and stay sexy. I surely intend to.

Questions: How long have you been writing professionally? I’ve been writing professionally for the past year and some odd months now.   It’s been a wild ride and I have been thoroughly enjoying myself. J   What inspires your writing? Inspiration strikes at the oddest moments. It can come from pretty much any source, whether it’s a phone conversation, a planned adventure, or something mundane turned adventure like a runaway lawn mower. People especially tend to be inspirations. The best characters I’ve developed have come from the interesting personalities of people around me.   Who is your favorite author? Or do you have a favorite book? [or both if you’d prefer] I have so many favorite authors that if I listed them all, you’d be reading pages.   I can however, tell you that the favorite book on my shelf right now is Lover at Last by JR Ward. It’s been a book I’ve been waiting for for a long time and it didn’t disappoint. ...

LIFE

I've been MIA lately. Have I been busy? Oh have I! Last Saturday I received the wonderful news that my novel, Rainbow Hill and my novella, The Boys of Banana Court will be published by Wilde City Press, a new to me publisher. When I received this email I almost fell out of my rolly office chair. To say that I was happy is an understatement. Rainbow Hill took me around 6 months to write and I prayed that someone would agree to publish the sucker. My prayers came true. As for BBC that took me two weeks but I had thought about it for two years but never got around to writing it. I plan to have three more in that series....maybe four. Let's see. I refuse to commit. What's next? A paranormal trilogy! I love vampires and I do believe that I do write them well. My vamps are sexy and quirky and HAIRDRESSERS. How fun is that!?!? Well let me tell ya, it's FUN! Let's keep our fingers crossed that I can sell this series too. I think I can. I think I can. I think I can. What...

Sage Marlowe

Today I have the fabulous Sage Marlowe on my blog. I LOVE Sage, a great writer with great covers to match. Please welcome Sage to my blog with an insightful Q & A. How long have you been writing in the Manlove genre? I started writing in March 2010, which seems a lifetime ago now. My first novel, Sub-Mission was published in May 2012 by Total-E-Bound, so I have yet to celebrate my first anniversary as a published author.   Where do you write from? I write all my stories from the heart. Oh, I’m sorry, did you mean geographically? I currently live in Germany, in a very rural corner of the west. What is your writing routine? My only routine is constant chaos. I have a nineteen months old, very curious and vivid daughter, and any writing has to be arranged around her needs. This means I type most of my first drafts on my trusty phone while she plays or takes a nap. Once the first draft is done, I use the evenings to polish the manuscripts on the lapt...
