Sleep In

Published on November 27, 2007 in Chasing Phoenix, NaNoWriMo and Promotion. 8 Comments

Hello everyone! I’m taking it easy this morning and let myself sleep in a bit later than normal. I’m about to hit my writing for the day and am getting anxious to finish up Taber’s story. I really want to go back and re-read what I have down on paper LOL! That’s the one problem with NaNo – no time to look back.

Today I’m posting over at The Romance Studio’s blog about Chasing Phoenix and secret identities. I’d love for you to stop over and tell me what you think of them!

And I also wanted to have a quick shout out for my friend Red Garnier’s new book The Sheeman from Loose ID. This book sounds so hot, I can’t wait to get my little fingers on it. :D

Chasing Phoenix

December 14th can’t come soon enough!

Blurb:

Abbey has a secret. Not only is she the mysterious Lady Phoenix, sensual storyteller, but she’s in lust with her co-worker and friend Michael Quinn.

The night he shows up unexpectedly at one of her performances she decided to take advantage of his blindfolded state and have a little fun.

But when Michael becomes determined to uncover the truth about

Phoenix, will they cast their friendship aside for a chance at something more?

NaNo – Day 23

Published on November 23, 2007 in Chasing Phoenix, Life and NaNoWriMo. 7 Comments

I’m so close now I can taste it! After this morning’s writing session I’m sitting at 45,073 words done for NaNo. I plan on plunking my butt down this weekend and wrapping NaNo up, even if it’s not quite the end of the story. I’m going to try and push through at this writing pace until the end of November, but it will be nice to know that I’ve reached my goal.

I’m also super excited to say that Chasing Phoenix, my EC Quickie that will be coming out December 14th has made it to the coming soon pages! I don’t know why I haven’t been checking to see when it was going to be up, but it’s there! And I love the cover. :D I’m hoping to get a copy of it today, so I’ll post it for you as soon as I do. If you just can’t wait, check out the Coming Soon pages for a sneak peek!

This weekend I only plan on cleaning my house and writing. Oh and buying new snow boots for my daughter. She’s grown…again…

What are you up to??

Challenges

Published on September 12, 2007 in Chasing Phoenix, Goals and Writing. 7 Comments

I love a good challenge. I love to push myself to see how much and how well I can perform, especially under pressure. I’ve been like that my whole life, always getting in over my head to see how well I can swim. Interesting character flaw that’s gotten me into trouble on a few occasions.

What this particular trait of mine has decided I should do right now, is write a story and enter it for consideration for the Ellora’s Cave Caveman series. The deadline is September 30th. I know a lot of my fellow EC authors are polishing their manuscripts, but I hadn’t even started thinking about it until yesterday.

So I wrote a chapter…and now I’m hooked. I’m going to try and push through the first draft this week, looking to have most of it done by Sunday. Then it will be off to someone to read over (because I don’t trust myself when I write this fast to catch all my mistakes), and off to the editor.

Crazy?? Maybe, but I’ll have a lot of fun.

As writers, we get lots of challenges every day, both internally and externally. My good friend Red was issued a challenge by a reviewer to write a hero who wasn’t as harsh. A kinder, gentler Alpha if you will.

You need to check out her amusing response on her website.

Finally, I found out last night that my EC Quickie Chasing Phoenix, will be released December 14th!! I’m so excited for this story to come out. It’s hot, spicy and good for a giggle.
