So I’ve been on a bit of a writing break the past week or two. In fact, I haven’t been on the computer much wanting to give my tired old eye a break *snort*. But enough is enough! I have stories to write people.
The next question I have to ask myself is what book I want to work on next?
Want to help me pick??
Here are the options:
- Book 4 in the Eternal Bond series (Sean’s story)
- Book 2 in my urban paranormal series
- Sequel book to Wizard’s Thief
I’m also going to get back to work on the sci-fi m/m story I’m writing with Amy (you’ve been warned girl), but as I’m only writing ever other chapter, I have time.
So vote now people! What do you think?? 
Okay this is just wrong.
I went to the eye doctor on Tuesday. I have bad eyes, so I have to go every year to make sure things are still okay. After she does all her tests, I’m informed that I need reading glasses on top of my normal glasses. Or else I can get BIFOCALS?!?!
People, I’m 33. If anyone ever told me I’d need bifocals at 33, I would have laughed in their face.
*sigh*
I’m NOT getting bifocals. *NOT*
I’m ordering reading glasses for when I’m on the computer and…well…reading.
I’m so depressed, I’m going to have some wine tonight.
Woot!! The Bond That Heals Us finally has it’s first review.
Title: The Bond That Heals Us

Heat level: O
Sara Fergus enjoys her work as a doctor on the space colony Eurus. Even though it is exhausting work, Sara has her best friend, Haylie and Haylie’s husband Kamran, lend a hand whenever she needs one. But she doesn’t know what to think when Davin, an alien captain, crashes his ship on the colony. Davin gets her very hot under the collar and before long, these two begin an interstellar affair unlike both have ever experienced.
Christine d’ Abo writes some of the best sci-fi romances out there. The Bond That Heals Us is about Sara, a kind and loving doctor who has the healing touch with her patients. She is all work and no play until Davin arrives on the scene. Davin is an alpha alien male who turns Sara on in so many ways. Davin may act like a space pirate but he has the healing touch, literally. He comes from an alien society where he can heal others just by touch. Touch to Davin is the ultimate way to give and receive pleasure. And you can only imagine what these two will experience together when they finally become intimate! The passion and sex between them is hot and steamy. Ms. d’Abo can sure write some excellent sex scenes. It was enjoyable to see Davin fall for Sara as soon as they make love even though he denies his feelings for the lovely human. Sara first wants Davin for more physical fun but when she realizes the ability he has in the palms of his hands, she is there to lead him in the right direction. These two lovers build a partnership that makes The Bond that Heals Us an excellent read. There is some drama and suspense that adds to the plot giving some insight on Davin’s internal struggles on whether to do the right thing. For a steamy romance with a hero and heroine who will not disappoint, definitely pick up The Bond That Heals Us and introduce yourself to the world that Christine d’Abo has invented

Thank you Kate

And then the flu hit my household. I didn’t get it (though I’m a bit dizzy this morning), but my daughter and husband did. Poor hubby is sick in bed right now…and that is just a sad sight.
I did manage to get most of the first part of a new story finished. I wanted to have more done, but that’s okay. I know the direction I want to take with the characters and for me that’s half the battle. This one is more of a fantasy and less of a romance, but knowing me, there will be lots of romantic elements. How can I resist?
So the plan for this week is to get most of the story done. I do have a few distractions though. The first is finishing the FANTASTIC Law of Averages, by my friend Wylie. I love this book. Oh man… I really didn’t want to put it down once I’d started reading, but vomit did take priority.
I’m going to finish it tonight and I really can’t wait! If you haven’t read this one yet, check it out!!
Taking some time off just to goof around is really good. I’m bouncing and ready to tackle a new project…one that I’ve just gotten the green light to go ahead and start on.
One that I can’t tell you all the details about because I don’t physically have the contract in my hand yet…but I can say this:
It’s a new story that I’ll be writing.
I’ll be using a new pen name.
It’s going to be REALLY cool.
I’m hoping to have the contract in hand in the next two to three weeks, and then I can fill you in on the details. But I’m going to start working on the story this weekend.
So I’m all bouncy again, ready to rock and roll…and it’s Sci-Fi Saturday again this week. Both Doctor Who and Battle Star are on and I plan to have a nice evening watching them.
What are your plans?
I’m so happy summer is on its way. I love the heat…miss the heat…but not too hot. I’m so Canadian.
It’s been a pretty lazy week for me so far. I haven’t done much in the way of writing, more like playing around. I have been reading some wonderful stories though (Fox’s Bride by the wonderful Amy Ruttan neener neener) and generally taking it easy. I needed the break from all my projects to get myself charged up again. Because the next thing I want to take on is book four in the Eternal Bond series.
And that one is going to be a fun one to write.
I’m all caught up on my TV shows with the exception of the CSI finale. I’m not looking forward to watching it because I know what happens and it will make me cry. I’ve had enough crying because of TV LOL!
So reading and writing are filling my time these days. How is everyone doing? What are you reading/writing?
Wow…I can’t keep up with things anymore. I’ve barely been online the past two weeks, not because I don’t want to be, but because I’ve been so flipping busy! We were out for most of the weekend. When I wasn’t socilaizing, I was critiquing (I’m getting there Amy!).
I’ve also begun edits for two new EC novels. The Bond That Consumes Us is looking good. That’s right, Taber will be coming your way soon! Primal Elements is book one in a new series that I have planned. I had to clean a few things up, but I forgot how much I liked that story.
I’ve been so busy with this stuff, I’m actually behind in my TV viewing. Not that there’s much on anymore, but I’m about three episodes behind for Battlestar Galatica. The only good thing, is that I’ll have three to watch back to back.
Did you all have a good weekend? What did you do?
I was very lucky to have been able to see the new Indy movie the other day. I got advanced tickets through work and my husband and I took in a matinee.
Wow.
It had all the elements that I really enjoy in movies. It was fun, fast, had great dialogue and didn’t take itself too serious. Harrison Ford still has it people!
This weekend I’m going to be neck deep in edits for my next two books (The Bond That Consumes Us and Primal Elements) and after that I’ll be going through the critiques I’ve been promising people. Lots of reading for me.
My treat for getting everything done? Law of Averages by Wylie and Love Thy Neighbor by Amy! Of ladies, I’m so looking forward to reading these. If you haven’t picked these books up yet, go now to EC…buy them!!!
What are your plans for the weekend?
