Cat Grant's Blog: Memoirs of an Amnesiac - Posts Tagged "appearing-nightly"
Hello! :)
Go ahead, call me clueless. I didn't even know you could blog on Goodreads until my good friend (and fellow author) Lori Toland told me about it. So here I am!
In case you've never heard of me (and in that case, what are you doing here?), I'm Cat Grant, author of the Courtland Chronicles menage series and a number of m/m titles from Amber Quill & Ellora's Cave. In fact, my drag queen romance Appearing Nightly will be available from EC on December 15th! Mark your calendars!
Watch this space for more info, not to mention some cool giveaways over the next few weeks! :)

New cover!
Appearing Nightly appears 12/15 from Ellora's Cave! Here's some cover pretties to whet your appetite...
And here's a blurb...
You can call me Mike—or Diva Michelle on the weekends. But just because I strut onstage in an evening gown and high heels doesn’t make me a sissy. I’ve still got a man’s body, feelings and desires. I’m also a man who knows what he wants—and that would be Ryan.
One look at our new employee with his hot physique and boy-next-door face and I was lost—falling hard and fast. It broke my heart each time he rejected me… Until the night he finally fell into my arms, desperate for the comfort only I could provide.
Each night our passion burns up the sheets, but Ryan’s holding something back. He’s been hurt in the past—leaving him scarred both inside and out. He won’t let me reach that secret part of him. I’d be willing to give him anything, but if he can’t trust me with the pain of his past, is there hope for a future?
Getting excited? I know I am! :)

Release day!
Appearing Nightly
sashays across the stage today at Ellora's Cave!
You'd think after nine books (!!!), I'd be pretty jaded about release days, but nope - they're still a genuine thrill. I'm very grateful that EC took a chance on this quirky little book. You don't see too many drag queen romances out there!
A year ago I never would've considered writing anything like this. But then I saw an amazing documentary called Paris Is Burning , about African-American and Latino drag queens in 1980s Manhattan. It touched me in ways I hadn't expected. I'd never understood the appeal of effeminate men until I saw this film, but afterwards I couldn't shake it from my mind. I wanted to know a drag queen's heart, get inside his head. So when Mike, my hooker hero Cameron's best friend from The First Real Thing practically jumped off the page at me, I knew I had to give him his own book.
I hope you all enjoy his story. :)

Night Owl Reviews has given Appearing Nightly 4.5 stars and a Top Pick!
I'm really amazed - and pleased! - by how well my little drag-queen romance has been received! Everybody seems to love Mike, Ryan, Cameron and Trevor. I'm actually thinking of pushing the DADT book to later this year (so I can do more research - I don't know nearly enough about the US military to start writing yet) and write the book about Trev's son Brian, the twenty-year-old goth rocker with a king-size chip on his shoulder.
Sounds like fun, huh? *rubs hands together*
