I'm on hiatus... (yeah I wish)

Hey there Blogo-verse,

I'm temporarily on hiatus until late February. Now I wish I was off vacationing in Monte Carlo but sadly I won't be. I'll be editing and writing but mostly working my day job.

If you still want to @ message me on Twitter or message me on FB, I'll be around I'm sure :)

And here is a picture of kitties before I leave :)

 

Well, one kitty. Okay, I can't count. But he's cute, right? :D (and yeah, he was comfortable like that)

My latest work is submitted for editing!


I've been re-writing my latest book since November and it finally hit the point I'm really satisfied with it. Gosh, I can't wait for you all to meet Tony, although if my CP Kele is right, you'll all love the main character Agent Bradley. 
If you know me, you'll remember I love to hit up Damn You AutoCorrect on a regular basis. In fact my husband says he watches me laugh for hours while looking at my phone and he's not sure why I'm laughing, but he's fairly certain it's the autocorrect website.
To celebrate my latest work going in for editing, I'm posting my own DYAC of a tweet I did back when I was writing the book. 
(Execept it's not a DYAC, it's just my fat fingers)


So yeah. *face palm*
But I'm done with the re-writes so YAY!

Boooiiiiiiinnnnng!!

Today has been a rough day. I woke up with a pounding sinus headache. I was truly thankful I didn't have anywhere to be or too much to do today.

However, I did need to do one last return. For Christmas, my dad bought my husband and I this lovely present:




A Beavis and Butthead Lava lamp and

         

Beavis and Butthead Bobble Head dolls. I told him to just get my husband beer to make his Christmas tolerable, what with him having to be around his in-laws and all but Dad insisted.

We all had a good laugh but honestly, I could do without the bobble head doll and lava lamp so I called Spencer's Gift and asked if I could return it. They said no problem, just bring it in. But in our Christmas fun, I had pulled the tab on Beavis so we could all hear what he said. So all the way to the mall, Beavis was in the backseat spouting out "Booiiiinnnnnggggg" and "Shut up Butthead."
It didn't stop there.

Unfortunately I parked at the wrong end of the mall (which you always do because that's life) and I had to walk all the way from the opposite end of the mall to Spencer's with Beavis going "Booooiiinnnggg" all the way. I even half expected when I passed Victoria's Secret for Beavis to chime in but in fabulous Beavis fail mode, he stayed silent. Return went off without a hitch.

And I got one last present for my little sister's eighteenth birthday. It's less than a month and I know she'll be excited.

So that was my day. Not nearly enough editing of The Long Con because of my headache. I came straight back home and collapsed in bed.  :(

Holy &$@%!

It's been crazy cold here in Florida. We had a hard freeze warning here and I wasn't entirely sure what that was. I'm sure you Northerners are laughing at me.

I think we've left Florida, Milly. What do you think?




She says: You may be right.

Feel the peer pressure...

Everyone is doing posts about looking forward to 2012 and I don't think I've been surrounded by such excitement and treipdation for a new year since 1999.

1. 2012 is the year of the Dragon, which is soooo exciting. I'm a dragon so naturally I'm very much looking forward to this. (And I'm turning 36 too!)

2. I feel like we are dawning on a while new era of possibilities. Part of it is the buzz surrounding the Mayan calendar (since it's NOT the end of the world but the changing of the guard in their civilization) but of it is 2011 was kind of shitty for me so I'm looking forward!


So I'm raising my glass to a new year, and here's hoping that 2012 is fucking awesome!

New Blog... Almost New Year!

I've been working on moving to Blogspot for a while now. I finally pulled the plug and moved to my new home. I'll still keep my loritoland LJ but I won't be updating it as often. Just mainly big announcements and all.

Some news before the year end:

The Long Con (m/m erotic romance, suspense) is contracted at Loose Id and will be coming out in 2012 so look for a release date soonish.

I'm hard at work on the sequel to Soul Seduction, titled Soul Salvation (titles always subject to change) and hopefully this will release in 2012 as well. Yes, Soul Seduction is the first of the series with hopefully many more to come.

My CP Kele Moon has a new hot m/f erotic romance out at LI called Battered Hearts: Defying The Odds. I'll be posting links to Amazon soon.

I'll be updating after the new year so if I don't see you on Twitter or Facebook, please have a safe and happy holiday. Hug your family and tell them you love them if they aren't assholes. And if they are assholes, tell them you love them to fuck with their minds. :)

HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!
