Six Sentence Sunday – Ty the Sexy Dragon

Today's #sixsentencesunday is a fun one. Ty the Sexy Dragon is the first book in the Fire Mate series available from Ellora's Cave (the second, How to Love Your Dragon is coming soon, and the third (Crouching Tigress, Horny Dragon) and fourth (Enter the Dragon) right behind it *grin*). Enjoy. **** Dragon. He was making [...]

First Page – Timeless Wrath

In case you haven't firgured it out by now, I'm a little…twisted. Occasionally, I let that…twistedness…off its leash and it runs amuck. Timeless Wrath is the end result of one of those unrestrained runs. It started it life as part of a different series at Changeling Press (known then as Anger). A few years past [...]

Wednesday Weigh-In – Week Three

I'm stating my goals today. I'm doing this for two reasons. Last week wasn't such a good week. I indulged when I shouldn't, I allowed myself to skip exercising and I gave myself excuses for being pathetic. Also, my husband did some serious damage to his back and we spent some time in hospital (which [...]

First Page – Death, The Vamp and his Brother

Y'know you're going to be heading into trouble when your heroine is THE Grim Reaper, your hero turns out to be related to someone really really holy and your villain wants to bring about the Apocalypse. That was what I started with when Death, The Vamp and his Brother came to mind. Suffice to say, [...]

First Page – Spaceport: Captured Rapture

I know a lot of people don't like reading books writte in 1st person. I love writing books in 1st person. For some reason, when I write in 1st person I get all sarcastic and cheeky and flaunt all the writing conventions. Straight after writing The Sun Sword, my muse was still in sci-fi mode [...]

Six Sentence Sunday – Misplaced Cowboy

For today's #sixsentencesunday I'm sharing something special. Misplaed Cowboy is the parrallel book to Misplaced Princess, both currently being written by myself and the most fabulous Mari Carr. Suffice to say, there shall be more teasing to come as the months progress. Enjoy… **** An Australian stockman had no place being in America. None at [...]

First Page – The Sun Sword

This book is not for the feint of heart. Nor is it your typical sci-fi. The heroine's backstory is brutal, the hero is hard to get to know and there's a lot of blood. But the pay off is, in my opinion, worth it. I've called The Sun Sword my most hated book, and that's [...]

First Page – Stone's Soul

When I decided to write a submission for Ellora's Cave, I was nervous. Really nervous. I don't know why, but I was. In 2008, Ellora's Cave was running a monthly themed series based on birthstones. Depsite the fact my birthday is in April and the diamond is my birthstone, I decided to write a submission [...]
