Only in fandom…
Sniff, Sniff. I’m having trouble keeping a straight face over here. (Hey, I can grin as goofily as the next fangirl.) It’s all kinds of adorable that you’re recommending shampoo scents for his lordship. #SeriousFangirls

Chapter 56: Independent
“You and Inuyasha have been close. I mean, you… erm… travel together.”
“He carries me.”
So much for diplomacy.
Sesshoumaru lifted the twist of her hair, sniffing lightly. “You cleanse with a different scent.”
Aha!
“Scents are personal, ev...

Links and Tabs
Quick survey, because I have one person saying they can’t access my links/tabs.
“Unfortunately, the tab on this site doesn’t take us to anything. I have always (for over three years now) gotten an error message when I click on the links provided by this website.”
Good gracious! Are you able to navigate my site’s pages (about page, signed books page, fanfic profiles, da page, etc.) using the menu bar? Anyone else running into broken links and error messages? ::hand wringing::
**UPDATE** I swit...

Inktober Dare
Pen and Ink. All you artsy types know all about Inktober, when daily art prompts lead to creativity for the month of October. Well, I’ve just been challenged to use this year’s Inktober prompts as drabble prompts. (And I adore challenges.)

Do I Dare? Since I’ve been looking for ways to celebrate an October(ish) release anyhow, I’ve hatched a fiendish plan. What if I were to drabble in the Amaranthine universe? My very first Amaranthine fanfic! (Wait, can the actual author write fanfiction in...

Chapter 55: Undecipherable
Kagome’s heart stuttered at Sesshoumaru’s words, then exploded with warmth. This really was progress, and she didn’t know how to temper her joy. Oh, if only Inuyasha were here! She did her best to savor the moment on his behalf.
Sesshoumaru’s expr...
Planning Ahead
On release day for Tsumiko and the Enslaved Fox back in February, I marked the occasion by adding to Imperceptible (an IY fanfic), which was one (very long) chapter shy of completion. Looking ahead to the release of Kimiko and the Accidental Proposal, I’ve been sifting through my options.
Affinity [IY x YYH crossover] is certainly the closest to an ending. I could probably wrap that up. Tolerable [IY, Mir&Sess] is due for one more story arc before I’d call it finished. NEW STUFF [various] be...August 28, 2018

Chapter 54: Commanding
Kagome couldn’t pull free as Sesshoumaru rolled his wrist, slowly winding her hair around his hand. His cheek stripes were the dark red-orange of coral. Up close, she realized that the narrow bands of color on his eyelids matched the s...

Chapter 53: Variable
Lavender. The thought of being rid of her and the rest of them turned Sesshoumaru’s stripes a shy purple that was new to Kagome. But as she rambled on, the color quickly flashed to emerald, only to deepen toward black. Time to change the subject....

Details, Details…
One of the many (many, many) details I need in place before I can release Book 2 … is Book 3’s summary, which I’m writing now. And which makes me really (really, really) excited for release day because I am very (very, very) sure that my longtime readers are going to implode. In a good way. ::twinkle::
Current forecast for Bk2 – October-ish
(WHY is August almost over!)
Library Shelves
Did you know you can get Tsumiko and the Enslaved Fox on the bookshelf at your public library? Most city and county library websites include a place where you can request they add a book that’s not currently in their system. (Which means they’ll buy the book.) So far, two of you have mentioned to me that Tsumiko is now in their local library. Thanks for that! ::twinkle::

This is amazing to me! I have a library book! ::confetti toss::
