Updates and Stuff

Hi Everyone!

Currently I’m battling the tail end of a cold that’s kicked my butt for the last week. I hate feeling tired. Ugh. Anyway. I’m currently working on Last Call Europe: Dog Sled. I’m up to 20k with it and hopefully will have it done by the end of the week. It has a release date of April 30th. *Grin*

I just started edits for Bedtime Stories: Inspiration which is due out April 2nd. So you have two dates for April.

This month I have Sex and Chocolate: Chocolate Bliss due out on the 15th the same day as the fabu authors: Mina Carter, Cat Marsters and Anne Kane have books out. So excited! (Pssst I just finished reading Cat’s Almost Human, LOVED it). We’re gonna have an all day party on the Changeling Reader loop so please stop by and party with us.

Speaking of Chocolate Bliss check out the cover candy Mareteeka Karland did:

Gorgeous yes? I’m so excited. Also, use coupon code: ChocoBliss for 5% off your purchase at ChangelingPress.com.

Here’s the blurb to the story:

All Connor wanted was for his significant other Roxi to relax. Opening her new caf? has been stressing her out. So to help her unwind he concocts his special Bliss Out Hot Chocolate. Only it doesn’t go quite as planned.

Roxi’s not relaxed at all. The seal containing her succubus nature is deteriorating and the hunger for sex is wearing down her self-control. Connor calls on his best friend, an incubus, for help.

I should also mention that out this week is the Aftershock Antho which features Carlanime Bligh, Michelle Hasker, Me, B.J. McCall, Cynthia Sax and Kira Stone.

Enter The Layer — Nisha is gifted with special powers of love and intimacy, and decides it’s time to take her new powers for a test drive.

Catching Adan — Rayna wants more from Adan than their current friends-with-benefits relationship. But Adan’s got a secret ?- he’s a werewolf. Is it worth risking what they’ve got for a chance at so much more?

Special Training — Some spanking and a bit of sex is what Michelle needs to get her magikal focus back, and off of her sexy vampire mentor.

Flying Into Paradise — A blue-eyed captain brings an island myth to life.

Sweet Haunting — While waiting for the next aftershock from a recent earthquake, Bayley’s prayers are answered in a most unexpected way.

Deep Feelings — A shipwrecked vampire and a Caribbean water god — Is this a match made in Heaven or will each swim with the fishes alone?

My story is Special Training. These are all flash stories about 3k+ in length.

Find out more by clicking ?here.

Also, before I forget, the?fantastic?Chris Marie Green has a new release coming out tomorrow. *Squeeee* Deep in the Woods. I’m soooo excited. I’ll try to get a bit more about the book from Chris. I sooo can’t wait to read this book. As soon as I get it I’ll probably go off and read it. Shhh, don’t tell my Critique/Word War buddies. Especially Michelle Hasker, she might get out the flogger. *whimper*

Um, let’s see what else. Oh Appearances!

Loose Id’s Readers’ Retreat at Coffee Time Romance Starts Monday!
Some exciting events and activities have been planned! Here is just a sampling:
Lissa Matthews and Suzanne Rock will be interviewing each other on 1 March and 18 March.
On 7 March, Ali Katz will give away a copy of her book, The Highwayman. Also, anyone who visits her guestbook and signs on that day will be entered into Passion in Spades Monthly Drawing for March. She will also announce a monthly drawing on 9 March, so look for that.
On 8 March, G.G. Royale will post the humorous article “Everything I Needed to Know about Treating Other People I Learned on a Kittenplay Forum.”
S.W. Vaughn will give a title away on 10 March. The reader will get to chose from three different titles.
Look for exciting theme days, when many authors may be poking their heads in to share and chat. Saturday, 6 March covers contemporary erotic romance, mystery, and suspense. On 7 March, we’ll have historical, westerns, and action/ adventure. For those of you that like to let your mind explore far-off worlds, come to the forum on 13 March for science fiction, fantasy, and time travel. If you’re not tied up on 14 March, stop in for BDSM and all the deliciousness that comes with that. 20 March is our last day in the forum, and that will be given over to the darker side, to the vampires, shape-shifters, and paranormal stories.
So mark your calendars and your browser’s bookmarks and make sure to join us throughout the month of March.

That Essential Romantic Story

One of my favorite movies is The Princess Bride. I could sit there and watch it ten times in a row and never tire of it. It has everything I could ever want romance, action, adventure, comedy all rolled into one. To me it is the perfect comfort or date movie. Plus, Cary Elwes (Wesley) my first ever movie star crush is in it. Just adored him and who wouldn’t want a hero like Weslely? I know I would, loyal to a fault and when he came back to Buttercup (Robin Wright) there was some bad ass mixed in there. *Grin*

So my question is what is your Essential Romantic story? What is that one book, movie or song that to you just screams ROMANCE!

NaNoWriMo update:

I managed to do 17k this week. *Big Grin* Just a little bit more and I can make the 50k goal I aimed for.

The song that’s currently driving me at the moment:

I’m planning on a week of Guest Blogs about television shows that some of my fabu author friends are addicted to. Look for posts about Chuck, Supernatural, Sanctuary and many more.

I’ll also be?announcing?some new contract news soon. Hopefully sometime this week.

Okay, laters guys. I’m off the treat myself for getting 5k in wordage done by reading some yummy ebooks.

News, New Contract and Contest

Hi Everyone!

Look three blogs in one month, wow! LOL.?A few things, first Changeling Press has contracted my next Dawg Town Story called First Snow which will deal with Robbie and Kitty. *Grin*

My writer’s block is over. Yaaaay, I’m so happy. I’ve also started a new story which I hope to finish soon and have turned into my editor ASAP. Just been dealing with a few things lately. Buut, I will be at the Authors After Dark Convention the 23rd-24th. I hope to see you there. It looks like it’s going to be an awesome gathering. :-D

I’m putting together two bags as prizes. The first one is a pink plaid weekender bag filled with print books, promo and some awesome stuff. The other bag is a beachy/tote bag filled with promo, print books and stuffed animals. *Grin*. Hopefully I can get some cool swag at the Con to give away to you guys.

Now for a Contest that is currently going on. Check out Wick’d Reads for an awesome contest. I’m giving away the Tartan Interlude candle. Go here for the details.

Next Week I’ll have a whole bunch of fabu Guest Bloggers and the theme this week is Urban Fantasy. I hope you’re as excited as I am.

Soon the site will be getting another makeover and I’ll be getting a forum. I’m so excited. Once it’s up and running and everything is as it should be I’ll let you guys know. Squee!

I’ll be posting one or two new polls.
