Snippet Saturday – Author’s Choice

I love Author’s Choice. I can give you a snippet from any book at all and it doesn’t have to fit a particular theme. Makes it so much easier sometimes. So, let’s see… What do you want to read a snippet from? Something old or something new? How about something new. So new in fact [...]

Birthday Bash for Leah Braemel

Do y’all know Leah? She writes cowboy hotties! She writes a little kink too… And she’s forever clad in boots and a white cowboy hat. How do I know this? I’ve met her and she’s awesome. She’s one of the most down to earth authors I’ve met in the few years I’ve been in this [...]

Guest Post: Kay Jaybee

Lyrical Inspiration By Kay Jaybee The question I’m most frequently asked as a writer of erotica is, ‘Where do you get your ideas from?’ The truth is that my creative processes can be sparked off by literally anything; overheard conversations, pictures, locations, even aromas.

Music Monday – Just The Way You Are via Glee

When characters die on television shows or in movie franchises, we mourn. Sometimes for years, depending on how beloved, or for a moment. When the actors die while in the midst of filming or in the off-season or in the middle of the viewing season, it hits us a little harder. We like to emesh [...]

Snippet Saturday – Belong To The City

I’m back y’all! Did ya miss me? I’m sure ya did. Today’s snippet is about the big city. I don’t write much about the big city. Most of my books take place in small towns but I have a few that feature bigger places. I’ll think I’ll use something newer… There’s talk of the city [...]

Music Monday – The Boys Of Fall

Over on the sidebar, there’s a College Football countdown widget. If any of y’all know me, y’all know I love me some college football. I like the NFL too (don’t have a fave team, just certain players I follow), but my heart and soul with football is college ball. Now, I’m not a huge Kenny [...]
