You create a world where readers visit and share your characters' experiences. They ask you questions and want to know more. They ask for more of your people, more of your stories. You're challenged to write. Will you make them happy every time? No, but it's all about the journey and finding those people who will travel with you anywhere.

Running a One-Author Circus (Send Snacks)

Mercy! I want to applaud every independent writer out there. You are not a joke. You are a master. You have skills. And wow! Thanks for your help as I embark on this journey without a publisher. No Dreamspinner Press. No Extasy (though I'll always love them). It's just me, and wow, am I tired. Let's talk about it. The Cover Ya'll, a lot went into making this cover. I had to decide what to use. Luc Read more of this blog post »

“I've just fallen in love with you. What is your name, and please tell me you're gay?”
― Jet Mykles, Just For You
tags: gay, love

Z.A. Maxfield
“Dear Lord,” began Randy, who paused for long enough that Tristan sneaked an eye open to look at him. His saw his mother’s cheek twitch with what he thought might be apprehension. “We are so grateful to be gathered here today with our family, and the family of our brother’s homosexual boyfriend, and our new little goth friend who has a gay dad, whatever the heck that is all about. We’d like to say we’re grateful this year for condoms, lube, and Ellen Degeneres, and for those guys on Queer Eye…”

Randall Evan Phillips!” his mother shouted.”
― Z.A. Maxfield, Crossing Borders

Mary Calmes
“I want you back here now. I want you next to me now. I cannot believe that my family, your brother, all our friends, and an entire police force can't keep tabs on one twenty-six year old graphic designer who thinks he's fuckin' Batman.
--Detective Sam Kage in A Matter Of Time (vol 2 or part 4)”
― Mary Calmes

Mary Calmes
“I love you" I sighed, unable to keep the smile from my face,leaning back and looking at him through heavy-lidded eyes. "I really do".
"I know", he grunted, very pleased with himself. “You can’t live without me. I’m like cheese.”
― Mary Calmes, Change of Heart

Mary Calmes
“I think you're wrong. I think, in real life, magic happens every day," he said...”

Deja Black 34!

Deja Black Okay, time to focus. Bring on the Trolli Sour Crawlers!


message 37: by Deja

Deja Black 32! 32! 32 have added Broken Bones! I think I will pass out right now. Smile on my face, glazed eyes, and joy!

Deja Black Check out my blog, the latest pic. WARNING: Twisted and dark with some derogatory language.

Deja Black dejablack77.blogspot.com - Hi! Check out my blog!


message 33: by Deja

Deja Black Reason to celebrate: I have a book coming out in September 2015. The title is Broken Bones. So excited!


message 32: by Deja

Deja Black Check out my blog: dejablack77.blogspot.com


message 31: by Deja

Deja Black Hi,
Does anyone know what AMA means? Amy Lane uses it in Blackbird Knitting in a Bunny's Lair. I looked it up, and Urban Dictionary defines it as Ask Me Anything. Doesn't see like it fits.


message 30: by Deja

Deja Black Does anyone know if JL Langley has stopped writing?


message 29: by Deja

Deja Black Perhaps I need something sweet. Amy Lane? Let's see.


message 28: by Deja

Deja Black Not sure what to read at this point. I got burned by a book and am now unsure about what to choose next. Decisions. Decisions.


message 27: by Deja

Deja Black I can now promise that I will no longer ask an author if and when another book is coming out.


message 26: by Deja

Deja Black WTF - Am I supposed to be crying over Amy Lane's Christmas Kitsch? Well, I am. Argh!

LOL! four eyeballs and two brains would surely help :)


message 24: by Deja

Deja Black Argghh. So, Jet Mykles, Amy Lane, and Derekica Snake have books out. Even I can't read that fast to partake of each delightful morsel plus read the series I have purchased three books of and do my review. Arggh. I need two more eyeballs and another brain. Oh, and a clone.


message 23: by Deja

Deja Black Nice to have people to chat with on Goodreads about the books we read. It's like a community.


message 22: by Deja

Deja Black I wonder when the e-book will be on Amazon for Ethan in Gold by Amy Lane.


message 21: by Deja

Deja Black Me, too!


Elizabetta Thanks for the invite, look forward to chatting with you :)


message 19: by Deja

Deja Black I have lost faith in Derekica Snake's return. Time to find a replacement.


message 18: by Deja

Deja Black I would like to read some m/m stories in which the dominate character is younger. Know any?


message 17: by Nik

Nik Thanks for the add, Dejal!


message 16: by Deja

Deja Black Currently reading Notturno by Za Maxfield. A reviewer said it was not passionate. What book was she reading? Dinner? Wine? Sizzle!


message 15: by Deja

Deja Black When reviewing, treat with love. No writer likes their heart ripped out. That's what their writing is, a part of their heart they have chosen to share with you. Being critical doesn't mean be vicious. <3


message 14: by Deja

Deja Black Sigh. I love reading old favorites. Especially when I can not figure out what to read.


message 13: by Deja

Deja Black Ann Lee writer of Etxhed in Skin, please write and publish another book!!


message 12: by Deja

Deja Black Ohhhh. What to read!! What to read!! Sigh!!


message 11: by Deja

Deja Black The String - a good movie about a closed architect and a houseboy.


message 10: by Deja

Deja Black Just reread Double Blind by Heidi Cullinan. Love that book!


message 9: by Deja

Deja Black At an Impasse...no other book will do until I have Alex Kidwell's latest in my iPad.


message 8: by Deja

Deja Black Okay, love the reviews on Amy Lane's Chase in Shadow. Will get that one!

One of Derekica Snake's books comes to mind.

Deja Black Edina wrote: "Really? Could you give me an example, I'm just curious."

Edina wrote: "Really? Could you give me an example, I'm just curious."
I will have to remember which books I have searched for; let me look back through my pages. I sometimes find myself saying,"Did they not like it because it had a gay theme or a subject that was found 'not the status quo', or is it truly being judged on its own merit?"

Let me look and I will get back to you. Won't be tonight because my six month old is finally asleep, and I am soooo going to crash right now while I have the chance!


message 5: by Deja

Deja Black For me, it is more that any book that does not fit what is acceptable rarely receives good reviews. I stick to a select few when deciding on books now.


message 4: by Deja

Deja Black I have learned not to trust Amazon reviews. Thank goodness for Goodreads!!


message 3: by Deja

Deja Black I can not find anything I want to read, so I am rereading old favorites.


message 2: by Deja (last edited Dec 30, 2011 03:34PM)

Deja Black Rereading Andrew Grey's Spot Me. Love his characters, their shyness, the need for love and the trepidation. Love that there is a strong man just around the corner to fill those needs.


message 1: by Deja

Deja Black Rereading Mary Calmes's Matter of Time. I love the interaction, the relationship of Jory and Sam. I always go back to read their lines to each other, the sensitivity and the romantic brutishness, the sweet honesty and the reticent "I would die for you love". Inspiring,
