One of my closest friends Alex got the chance of a lifetime very early last year. One of his business clients and golfing buddies offered Alex his home on the Caribbean island of Anguilla for five days as a thank you for a huge deal.
I was so mad I couldn't go. Alex, bless him, took full advantage of the offer and took his dad and his closest male friends for a few days of drinking, rest, drinking, rest, drinking…well, you get the...

 I've fallen in love. Thanks to my awesome pal Jackie Kallen, the First Lady of Boxing, I've discovered the awesome joys of Wordscraper, a Scrabble-style game played on Facebook. I had no idea the game existed but it's one of the many applications available on the social networking site and it has saved my life.I used to be one of those socially-awkward people who punished friends and family members for a game of ScrabbIe. Yes, my nieces...

My friend Nadia opened her own day spa salon in Studio City a couple of years ago and told me when I rant into her in the street the other day that she was hurt that I hadn't made an appointment for a facial.Number one, I suppose some guys go in for this sort of thing but not me. Number two, I can't afford her rates. Number three, I sort of felt ambushed because I was walking my dog.She didn't care. She dragged me and my dog up to her...

I've been a loud and consistent opponent of file-sharing theft sites. I've even taken part in the worlds first M/M anthology, Stealing My Heart, published this month by Total eBound promoting awareness of this disgusting virus.
However, this past week, I had an unusual problem. A theft site that refused to remove illegally uploaded links to my books, thus violating my copyright.
All the tricks and tools I've learned did not help. I contacted...

I am blogging today at The Many Shades of Life and Love and here is what I posted:

It doesn't matter how great YOU think your book is. It matters not one whit that you're selling huge numbers of copies, or that you've gotten awesome reviews.
It takes one clown to post a negative review and you feel like total crap.
Then you start to think, "Will this affect my sales?"
Should this lead to a writer suing a reviewer for...

I recently gave up my volunteer work at my local library where I spent almost every Saturday working for the last three years. I still love my library but recent changes there made me realize it was time to leave. It was a tough decision but now I wonder how I did all the work I did there…and I am feeling a lot less stressed.I felt it was time to learn, to explore new adventures.Life is so amazing sometimes. I've been wanting to take...

Fire and Ice (Sin)

AJ Llewellyn and Stephani Hecht could not have been named more appropriately. From the beginning I was drawn into the world of hard core sports, boxing and hokey. The emotional neglect and lack of nurturing endeared me to both Angel and Cristano. The misery of being used and blackmailed endeared me to Alex. Intense passion stained my cheeks with blushing and made my mouth water. But it was the overall picture of the story that affected me. I enjoyed reading Tiano and Alex's story, and I hope ...
