A good, good day
Hey all,
I usually don't talk about personal things but I'm going to just a little bit. If you're not interested, just skip over it. No hard feelings, really.
Today was a heckuva great day for me. First of all, the fine people at Horsepower Harley-Davidson held a benefit for my dad, who had pancreatic cancer. It was very uplifting to see so many people come out to support him, and to see how well loved he is by the community. This hasn't been an easy time for him or for my sister and me, but seeing people be so selfless and just great, and seeing my dad have a good time, made it a little easier. A sincere thanks to everybody!
Good thing Number Two: I came home and found another acceptance letter in my email. My quirky/kinky fairy tale Violet Tresses will be published by Silver Publishing! I filled out the cover art form and sent it back right away, because the cover art there is just so beautiful, and I can't wait to get some of it! This is my second acceptance at Silver, the other being an urban fantasy, Epiphany.
Good Thing Number Three: I did my friend's hair today, and I managed to get it white, white as thistledown, with minimal damage. Not a hint of yellow anywhere; not even blond. It's the virgin snow, and looks completely supernatural. I am pretty pleased with myself. I guess I've got some skills, at least when it comes to white hair and dirty writing.
Peace, everybody!

Some smut for you
As promised, here's a dirty little excerpt from me and Eon's upcoming steampunk novel, Boots for the Gentleman. We had a blast writing it and it ending up at 102K! And it's just the first book in a series. As mentioned, it's unedited, so please forgive any typographical errors or the like. Look for the complete, polished novel (with gorgeous cover art no doubt) at Dreamspinner Press in August.
AS orphaned children, Reginald Whitney and Querrilous Knotte grew up in the work houses and factories of the city of Halcyon as it suffered the birth pangs of rapid industrialization. Their mutual agreement to watch each other's backs soon turned into much more. Now Reg, having been adopted by a wealthy family, is determined to marry and lead a respectable life, while Querry refuses to bow to society and earns his living by theft and mercenary work for the vilified faeries. Querry is unwilling to give up on his first love, and makes a discovery that draws the two men back together. What he finds in a hidden basement reveals a conspiracy that reaches all the way to the aristocracy and could threaten the entire city. To protect this priceless find, Querry and Reg must fight the vast resources of the nobility and make allies wherever they can.
In Querry and Reg's world, magic and industry make very uncomfortable bedfellows, but the young men will need both to protect each other and everything they love. Their adventure will take them from the dangerous back alleys of Halcyon, to the elaborate ballrooms of the privileged, to far-flung foreign lands, and even into the Other World itself. Along the way they make friends and enemies of eccentric geniuses, scavengers, resistance fighters, mercenaries, wizards and criminals. They know that the technology they've discovered will alter the course of history, but first they have to escape the forces that will stop at nothing to possess it.
Here's an excerpt. I hope it's not too much of a spoiler that Reg and Querry hook back up. Please comment. I'd love to know what you think!
"Feels good to hold you again," Reg said. "Especially since I never thought I'd get another chance."
"Love you, Reggie."
"Love you, Querry." Reg placed a trio of long, hard kisses across Querry's brow.
"I'm glad to have you back. Glad we're together. I'm sorry it took something like this for me to realize that's how we belong."
"Shh." Querry reached up and petted the blond hair out of Reg's face in two firm strokes. His fingertips skimmed down Reg's cheek and stopped to trace around the perimeter of his shapely lips. Stretching his neck, Querry closed the distance between his own lips and Reg's skin. He kissed and suckled just below his jaw as his adept fingers dropped to the bow he wore and worked the knot loose. Reg's shirt fell open, and Querry kissed along the muscle that stretched from his ear to his collarbone. His hand moved back up, over the delightful, soft hair on the back of Reg's neck and into his plentiful locks.
"Come here," Querry said, giving Reg's tresses a tug. "Give me your mouth."
"Yes, Querry," Reg breathed. He slid down until they faced one another, and their lips met. Querry took a second just to savor the contact of their faces pressed close, and then he angled his head and let his tongue venture into Reg's mouth. Reg's tongue met Querry's fervently, the tip swirling around Querry's tip as his hands clawed at Querry's shoulder blades. Wriggling his arm between their tightly-pressed bodies, Querry began to pop the little ivory buttons of Reg's linen shirt one by one. As soon as he finished, he brushed it aside and took hold of Reg's waist, feeling the muscles twist and contract in his hand as Reg writhed with anticipation. Then he let his fingertips dance up Reg's spine and back down, to the downy hair just above his ass.
Reg groaned with need, the sound reverberating through Querry's body. Querry pried Reg's clutching hands away from his clothing and sat up on his heels. He tugged away his necktie and flung it off to the side. As he hurried out of the expensive waistcoat and shirt, he watched Reg stretched out on the blankets. He'd rolled to his back, and his white shirt hung open, almost off his shoulders, revealing a smooth, slender body that looked made of gold silk in the firelight. His heart beat so hard and fast that Querry could see it shake his entire torso. Across his lovely face came a look that mixed trepidation, desire, and compliance in an intoxicating way. With a trembling hand, he reached out to stroke Querry's bare chest.
"And just why did I bother dressing?" Querry teased.
"I, I don't know," Reg managed.
As Querry unbuckled his belt, Reg kicked off his plain black shoes. Both pairs of hands seized Reg's waistband and tore his trousers and under-shorts to his knees, and then off. He sprawled back out, his head propped on one of the former sofa cushions, his dark erection pointing up and left and jumping with his pulse.
Querry stood, toed off his own shoes and slowly unbuttoned his fly. Taking his time, taunting his lover, he reached inside and took hold of his hardened cock, bringing it out through the opening but not removing his trousers. As Reg looked on with longing, Querry gave himself a squeeze, causing a pearl of pre-come to bud from his slit. Reg moaned again, and his hand jerked like he might touch himself. Instead, though, his fingers opened and closed around handfuls of blanket as his waist twisted. A shiny film of perspiration covered his body.
"Querry," he panted. "There's some hand lotion. In the box with the soap."
The thief got out of his clothes and dug among the fragrant shells until he found a little tin with a chemist's logo stamped into the lid. He turned back to face the bed, ready to scoop out some of the creamy, musk-scented balm, rub it over his length, dive on Reggie and take him hard.
But then he stopped. As much as he wanted Reg, wanted to be inside him, for once in their lives they had time. For once, they wouldn't need to rush to satisfy themselves before someone noticed them missing. They had all night, and Querry planned to put it to good use. He set the tin on the barrel table for later and crouched down by Reg's feet. Wrapping his hand around Reg's left sole, Querry lifted his leg into the air and kissed the dome of bone at his ankle. His other hand moved up Reg's opposite thigh slowly, leaving raised pores in its wake, until it reached Reg's balls and gave them a gentle squeeze. In response Reg's hips bucked up, and Querry chuckled.
Kneading Reg's sack, feeling the testicles inside it rolling over his fingers, Querry kissed up the inside of his leg. When it met his body, Querry let go of Reg's foot and stretched out over his chest, savoring the amazing feeling of skin against skin. He touched Reg's burning cheek and felt out his lips before kissing him long and hard, thrusting his tongue almost into Reg's throat. Reg's legs wrapped Querry's hips, his heels compelling Querry forward.
"Not yet," Querry said into Reg's ear.
"But Querry—" Reg practically pleaded.
Sitting back up, Querry grinned mischievously and said, "Not until I kiss every inch of your beautiful body. Touch you everywhere. Just lay back, Reg."
He obeyed, and Querry's hands and mouth began their tour of his skin, beginning at his chin and taking a meandering path down his neck and across his chest, and then down the gully between his stomach muscles. When he reached Reg's cock, he held it in his hand and licked from the base to the head, letting his tongue circle around the corona until it glistened with saliva. Then he kissed in an angled line over Reg's protruding hipbone, and then up his waist. Taking Reg's wrist, he guided his arm over his head and ruffled the sparse hair beneath it with his nose before continuing across his bicep and forearm. Next Querry took hold of Reg's shoulders and rolled him to his belly.
Right away, Reg started to draw his knees up and lift his ass into the air, but Querry held a hand to his lower back, halting him. He looked over his shoulder at Querry, confusion and need pouring from his soft eyes.
"I don't know how much more of this I can take," he said.
Running a hand up the long, vertical muscle of Reg's back, Querry said, "Just be still. Be still and let me admire you. I've never really had the chance."

I'm bad at this...
So yeah, it's been a really long time since I updated this thing. It's difficult for me to think of something interesting to write about on a regular basis, and I don't want to be one of these people who just tells everybody what I ate for every meal. It's usually ramin anyway...
Here is what has been going on since I last posted in what, September of last year! So sorry. I will try to do better. In December I published a novella with Dreamspinner Press, and my lifelong dream of having Anne Cain as a cover artist came true! Her artwork for my book Neskaya is more gorgeous than I ever could have hoped. See if you don't agree:
It has been very well reviewed, which makes me happy.
Five Angels from Fallen Angels Reviews: and "Highly Recommended" by Obsidian Bookshelf here: It was also a recommended read at All Romance Ebooks! So yay!
Let's see, I also played Fallout New Vegas, which was a fine game despite the many glitches, which are now patched anyway I think. I played Dragon Age 2. A lot.
Eon and I wrote a monster 102K steampunk/fantasy novel titled Boots for the Gentleman, and it was accepted at Dreamspinner for a tentative release in August or September. I'll toss up an unedited excerpt in my next post.
My urban fantasy solo novel Epiphany will be released at Silver Publishing on August 13th. I can't wait to see my cover art on that one either!
Thanks and love to everyone who's supported me and Eon and our work. I've bored you enough for today, I'm sure.

The Right Wing Strikes a low blow (surprise)
Yesterday's overturn of CA Prop. 8 may have been a huge victory for the GLBTQ community and for equality-minded Americans everywhere, but the extremists and bigots have already struck back. Not shocking from the National Organization for Marriage, they have chosen to go after the judge and his lifestyle personally, rather than debating the issue in a rational, adult manner. This is disgusting and childish. I've often thought that the best way of dealing with these bigots is to just let the...

Lemon Kisses!
This was my first time as an editor, but the authors made it easy by being awesome! I just reveled in the hotness to the point where I could scarcely proof!
Lemon Kisses contains four tales of love, lust and passion between beautiful men. Two friends explore their darkest fantasies. A young man becomes a hero and finds true love in the most unexpected way. A wealthy record executive risks everything for a pair of soft lips. And a group of models with an ancient secret join together to realize their power and defeat a deadly enemy.
Your Fantasy or Mine by A. Steele: Seth Quan knew it was stupid to fall in love with his gorgeous, skirt-chasing, straighter than straight friend Kevin Bishop. Really stupid. But hope springs eternal – and all that crap. Then one drunken, mind-blowing kiss changed everything between them. Or did it? Apparently not. The next day Kevin didn’t remember a damn thing. So Seth tried to let it go... And when that didn’t work he paid ten thousand dollars to have Kevin kidnapped and chained naked to his bed.
Now Seth has just one night to prove to Kevin that they belong together. The question is: can love, Darth Vader, and lots of kinky sex really conquer all?
Amorela Veritath by Eon de Beaumont: All Ren ever wanted was to be a hero. He trained relentlessly, studied every story about every renowned hero he could get his hands on and borrowed money from a vampire to purchase named Elven weapons. Now he’s down to his last few pieces of gold, his weapons have been repossessed and he may not have a place to sleep. When the beautiful, silver-haired Celestrian walks through the door of the local tavern looking for a hero to hire, Ren believes destiny (and cash flow) are calling. After facing bandits, a dragon, goblins and zombies, Ren thinks his career may have been poorly chosen. But with a little help and a lot of luck he may just be able to take his place among the legends he admires and find the lost civilization of Unicorns.
Bitter Fruit by Imari Jade: Japanese music producer Takai Nakagawa is rich, famous and runs the biggest entertainment company in Japan. He has limousines, fast cars, a penthouse apartment in Shibuya, and a bevy of beautiful women vying for his attention. He has everything money can buy except love. Then one day he hears an angelic song that changes his life.
Inspiring writer Kin Watanabe dreams of one day penning the great Japanese novel. He is dirt poor, barely making a living as a waiter and never had a girl friend. But life throws him an unexpected little surprise when he is overheard singing a lullaby.
Swept of his feet by a pair of soft lips, Takai fights against the strange attraction he feels for his young protégé. But try as he may he cannot get him out of his mind. Will he succumb to such a forbidden fantasy with the hopes of finally finding happiness?
The Daemon Within by B.J. Franklin: Miki is a young model who is thrilled when his idol wants to do a photo shoot with him. He is even more thrilled that his idol, another model called Alek, desires him intensely, and Miki cannot resist succumbing to their mutual passion. But he does not know that Alek has dark secrets in his past, secrets that Miki is unknowingly involved in, and the people concerned will stop at nothing to separate them and pervert Miki to their evil cause. Miki must use his wits, his intuition and his burgeoning magic to thwart them, while he is forced to confront unwelcome truths about his own past, about the world we inhabit, and about the point where reality and mythology entwine.
