About this author

Under a prickly, cynical surface Lou Harper is an incorrigible romantic. Her love affair with the written word started at a tender age. There was never a time when stories weren't romping around in her head. She is currently embroiled in a ruinous romance with adjectives. In her free time Lou stalks deviant words and feral narratives.

Lou's favorite animal is the hedgehog. She likes nature, books, movies, photography, and good food. She has a temper and mood swings.

Lou has misspent most of her life in parts of Europe and the US, but is now firmly settled in Los Angeles and worships the sun. However, she thinks the ocean smells funny. Lou is a loner, a misfit, and a happy drunk.

I'm just too damn lazy and unorganized to make one happen. I'll have a few blog appearances though.
June 3, Stumbling Over Chaos: Fabulous Chris is organizing a giveaway for the book.
June 16, Chicks & Dicks: A recap of the LA Pride Parade of this year. I expect there will be pictures.
June 18, Cup-O-Porn: The theme will be coffee and inspiration, gratuitously illustrated by half naked men.

What I liked most about this book is that it felt a departure from other Lanyon books I've read so far. The characters felt fresher, newer. To be fair, Perry's asthma is in line with the physical ailments that the more effeminate one of Lanyon's coup...more
