Site Changes

Some of you may have noticed there have been some site and email outages over the past couple of days. This is due to the site moving servers. Hopefully, everything is working as it should now.

If you sent me an email during this time and it bounced – please re-send it, as I didn't receive it.

Also, if you have any links on your own sites to pages within this site (i.e. not the homepage) then your links are wrong. Generally, if you look at the link and it says 'index.php' anywhere, then you need to remove this portion and it should work. To be sure, use the search box or the sitemap to find the page and grab the new link.

I'm so sorry for all the inconvenience but the new host is much improved and will result in a faster and more reliable website on the whole!

Thanks,

Lucy

I'm Everywhere At Once!

I've been a very busy girl of late, doing interviews and promo for Uniform Behaviour and The Great Outdoors Vols 1 & 2. And it seems everything has come to fruition at once!

Here's a breakdown of the latest:

I've been over on Bianca Sommerland's site talking about The Rise of the Girl Geek.
The delightful Dr Dick interviewed me about me, my writing and lots of naughty things. Check out the podcast here.
The beautiful Miss Rebecca Bond reviewed both volumes of The Great Outdoors on her website.
The Forbidden Bookshelf reviewed Uniform Behaviour – giving it an excellent 4.5 out of 5!
This was followed by an interview with me – I'm sure you can guess what I was talking about
The awesome Kay Dee Royal also reviewed Uniform Behaviour, very favourably.
Last, but certainly not least, Uniform Behaviour was named 'Top Pick' over at Miz Love Loves Books! It doesn't get much better than that!

 

Just a few photos from the reading at Sh! Portobello:

A Weekend of Smut and Books

Well, what an eventful weekend! I have spent the majority of it in London, having an awesome time.

The main reason for my visit was to descend on the lovely ladies at Sh! Women's Erotic Emporium and do a reading at their Portobello store.

The reading was a combined event, with myself, Rebecca Bond and Victoria Blisse promoting Uniform Behaviour, and Kay Jaybee reading from her two latest releases, The Perfect Submissive and Yes Ma'am. It was a star studded event, with attendances from K D Grace, Lexie Bay and Lily Harlem, to name but a few.

Kay began the proceedings with a fabulous reading from The Perfect Submissive. She was followed by Rebecca, who read from the delicious Sin City. Then Victoria and I read from our stories, Dirty Deeds and Just Couldn't Wait. The readings were punctuated by pink champagne and yummy cakes, which is always appreciated.

All in all, despite some travel mayhem, a fabulous evening was had by all.

Then today, I headed for the London Book Fair with Rebecca Bond and K D Grace. We did the rounds, checking out stands and lusting over books. We also did an awful lot of chatting and setting the world to rights. We headed to the Xcite Books stand and had a natter with the lovely Hazel Cushion and also bumped into Maxim Jakubowski, who asked how the Sh! reading had gone – I truly have had a star studded weekend! OK, I met not have met a famous actor or musician, but the people I have had the privilege of meeting and talking to are a damn sight more interesting!

So as you can see – I've had an incredibly busy weekend and am ready to drop! Will be posting pics over the next couple of days when I've had chance to download them from my camera and catch up on emails!

Get Your Very Own Uniform Behaviour Waiter!

When I saw this on SexToys.co.uk I just had to blog about it! A natty bow tie, starched cuffs… it just reminded me of the outfit of the delicious waiter, Sam, from my story in Uniform Behaviour!

You could get your hands on the Male Power Butler Set, team it with a white shirt (trousers optional) and re-enact that hot sex-on-the-desk scene from Just Couldn't Wait.

No idea what I'm going on about? Why not get your hands on Uniform Behaviour for starters? Once you've read it, I hope you'll be clicking your way back here to find the link for that sexy waiter's outfit…

This will be my last post until next week now. The Uniform Behaviour reading at Sh! Portobello is on Saturday and I have the whole weekend in London (with a trip to Sex Toys HQ en route!), then I'm off to the London Book Fair on Monday. Busy times!

Have a great weekend everyone, whatever you do!

K D Grace Reviews The Great Outdoors Vol 2

I just happened to stumble across another review of The Great Outdoors Vol 2, by none other than the fabulous K D Grace… and I think she liked it!

Here's a little snippet of her review:

"Lucy Felthouse has a talent for taking everyday life, lighting a fire under it and making  it sizzle larger and sexier than life. The sex is hot, and the stories are fun and quirky, with more than a hint of romance. Great Outdoors Volume 2 is another Felthouse winner."

You can read the review in its entirety on K D's website.

So, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to *squee* a bit at this lovely review. Oh, and if you want to get your hands on the book, the buy links are all here.

Totty Tuesday – Colin Firth

Usually, my Totty Tuesday selections are somehow related to something I've been reading or watching. However, all I've been watching just lately is Supernatural, Vampire Diaries, True Blood and The Tudors. And I think I already exhausted all of that totty. I know most of you wouldn't complain if I posted previous entrants, like the lovely Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles, Alexander Skarsgard, Ian Somerhalder and Henry Cavill, but that would be lazy. I like to mix it up.

Therefore, I was surprised to note that the lovely Mr. Firth has never graced the Totty Tuesday pages. How could I have missed him!? Even though I'm British myself, I am a total sucker for his posh accent and his very prim and proper attitude. I love him to bits in Bridget Jones and Love Actually – and thought he was well deserving of everything he was nominated for/won with regards to The King's Speech.

Now, however, I'm very excited to discover that he may be playing a vampire! There are rumours circulating that he's going to play 'uncle Stoker' in a film based on Bram Stoker's classic vampire novel, Dracula. Who knows whether it will actually come about or not, but we can but hope!

So I'll leave you with this yummy pic and let your imaginations go wild as they think about that famous wet shirt scene as he emerges from the lake in Pride and Prejudice…

Researching the Myth

Today I have been exploring my favourite stomping ground, the Peak District. It was done by car as I was with my dad and he 'doesn't do walking.' I wanted to go and do some research for my mermaid story, which will be included in the mythology anthology I'm putting together.

Luckily, the pond or mere as they're also called, is within easy reach of the road, so I didn't have to drag my dad too far. The area itself is just a little way off the A53 main Leek to Buxton road, if you're familiar with the area. It's moorland, so everything is very brown and beige but somehow, still completely stunning. There are brilliant views across to the west and Tittesworth Reservoir, Hen Cloud and The Roaches, all of which you can see in this video:

The pond itself is fascinating. The water is so dark that you can't see into it and there is no wildlife around it. Perhaps the malevolent mermaid keeps everything away? I was brave enough to get close, and this is what I saw:

Needless to say, there'll be a great deal more action in my story.

Still, a lovely place to visit, particularly if you're interested in myths, legends and history.

Six Sentence Sunday – 3/4/11

I'm working on a couple of WIPs at the moment and this is a random six from my unfinished, unedited, untitled erotic romance tale, so please be gentle!

When the name popped into her Facebook friend requests, Scarlet nearly threw up. It was a name she'd thought about a lot over the years, mainly in a hateful 'I wish he'd drop dead' fashion. But, as the saying goes, there's a fine line between love and hate.



And once upon a time, Scarlet had been madly, passionately, sickeningly in love with Charlie Warren. It was the kind of love that only teenagers have; where the slightest disagreement means it's all over and so, consequently, is your life.



Charlie had been her first love, in every sense of the word.
