I'm back on the piracy today. the first installment 'The Devil's Rose' should be out soon. Part two 'The Conquest' is nearly up to 2k, and someone has mistaken my heroine for a boy, again! Much gender confusion, silliness and seduction will follow.

I finished editing and formatting Max Griffin's new rmance thriller Lindermount Lovers - rather fun, some delightful 'Rebecca' homage in there too.

In the meantime, I have timbers to shiver...

I'm a good two thirds of the way through writing my second pirate story - The Conquest. Edam as a weapon - it came from an idea on Radio 4 a few weeks ago - I listen precisely in the hopes of picking up strange details I can steal for stories. Apparently Edam has been used in lieu of cannonballs, although now I have to figure out what that would change in terms of firing ranges, trajectory etc. I am consulting with the research assistants, some of them have a grasp of these technical things.

The first installment 'The Devil's Rose' is already available from http://tinyurl.com/c9evo5 in ebook form!

Well, that's the first draft written! Pirates, Edam, gender confusion... so far so good.

Next stop, a contribution to an anthology of m/m paranormal stuff, and another anthology about holidays ( have vague ideas for both) then back to pirates I think.

I might try and organise a pirate theme day at coffee time if, I can find any other pirate obsessed authors who want to play?
