Motivation or Procrastination?
This week it's been procrastination all the way. *sigh* I've managed a measly 1,000 words on Spin The Bottle when I really should have managed 10,000 but I've been distracted. One of our cats decided he needed a trip to the vet. Snickers was gone two days and the poor boy now has two stitches in his mouth, the inside of his cheek to be precise. Better than the weeping abscess he had there before. *shudder* I picked him up about three hours ago and I swear he hasn't stopped purring. It's like a damn v12 jag sitting on my desk between my keyboard and monitor. He's not really keeping me from working but I'm finding it far more enjoyable scratching his head than scratching out words that suck. LOL
I need to get a wriggle on so I'll be (as Beth Williamson says) getting my game face on y'all. *grin* Yeah, I know, it doesn't sound the same. Anyway, time to knuckle down and get this thing done. Aim is at least 2k a day but I'm gonna push for 5k because I like a challenge and I LOVE beating myself up when I don't make it. lol No, really, I think I need the push or is that a shove? Never mind, either way Mac and Lil are going down, pun intended

What a week.
I have no idea how I top last week but damn I'd like to try. In case you missed it, and really, what rock are you living under if you did I signed two new contracts! One for the third Coyote Hunger book, Coyote Whispers. This one is Steve and Doc's story and ended up take far more words than I imagined to tell. The second contract is for All Of You. It's a hot contemporary with a younger man older woman theme and I'm planning to write at least one sequel possible two. I'm excited to be having a release at Noble Romance again. I loved working with them before so I can't wait to dive in this time.
I've updated the coming soon page with the blurbs for both books so you can get some more details there and as soon as I know release dates I'll share. At this point we're looking at a possible early September release for All Of You and I know my EC editor works like speed-demon so it's possible Coyote Whispers could be out in the next few months too. Again, I'll update the coming soon page with details as I get them.
And don't forget the Passionate Reads Sizzling Summer Contest is still going and the major prize is a Kindle. CLICK HERE for details on how to enter.
Okay, enough with the 'back-end' work of writing, time to write! Who's turn is it to spin?

Coyote Whispers has been accepted!
In case you missed the happy dancing all over twitter and facebook yesterday…..
My EC editor has accepted Coyote Whispers! I'm so happy. Steve and Doc took longer than I ever thought they would and ran over by about 12,000 words on what I had planned. Damn characters wanting it their way. *grin* I should be nice and share a snippet. Unedited of course. lol

He wrenched her free and tossed the shirt over his shoulder. In a second he rolled her under him, slipped his knee between hers and spread her legs wide. His thighs brushed hers, the rough hair tickling her soft skin. Gordie lifted her pelvis to bring her sex in direct contact with his shaft. Hot and hard, the silky length slid along her slick folds, bumping her pulsing clit. She cried out and he covered her mouth with his hand.
"Shh. They'll hear you."
Gordie sucked her lips between her teeth, bit down to hold them in place and nodded. Steve removed his hand and gripped her chin.
"I want to hear you scream. Want to hear my name on your lips when I make you come but I don't want anyone else hearing that cry of pleasure. That's mine and mine alone."
Steve didn't give her a chance to answer. His mouth covered hers in a punishing kiss meant to claim. He flexed his hips and brought his cock to her opening. Pressing forward he entered her, breaching her body slowly. She wanted more—all of him. Gordie thrust up and drove his shaft deeper, wrenching a moan from each of them. They moved together, built a rhythm of give and take that quickly grew in speed and strength.
She gnawed on her lips, held them tight between her teeth to muffle the cries of pleasure she couldn't control. Steve's hands circled her hips, his fingers spread over her ass cheeks. He held her still, pinned to the bed, and drove in hard, his length dragging over her swollen clit with every stroke. Her head tossed on the pillow and her nails dug into his shoulders as her orgasm built inside her, tightening with each plunge, every retreat of his cock.
"Please." Gordie hooked her legs over his hips. "Steve."
Her words spurred him on. He pounded into her, pushed them both to the edge as their bodies slammed together—strived for release.
"Touch yourself." His hoarse demand sent a bolt of fire into her core. "Do it."
Gordie slipped her hand between them, her fingers searching for the spot that would bring her relief. She encountered wet heat and probed further. Cream coated her fingertips as she circled them over her clit, applied a little pressure and brought herself closer to the peak.
Steve leaned on his elbows and lifted up to look at where their bodies were joined. "God that's so hot. Watching you get yourself off is a huge turn on, Doc."
He pulled back and Gordie reached lower to graze her fingernails along his length as he withdrew.
"Fuck!" He slammed forward, trapping her hand between them. "Do that again," he growled.
She twisted her hand slightly, used her fingers on his cock and her thumb on her clit, and drove them both insane. Steve jerked, his rhythm erratic for a couple of strokes before he returned to the beat, this time faster. Harder. The first contraction rolled into the second and onto the third, her whole body flowing with the waves of her orgasm as they took her under and dragged him with her.
"Steve."

Sunday in…the sun.
It's freezing here at the moment so I thought I'd warm myself up with some 'sun' pix.
Coral Island, Thailand.
Phi Phi Island, Thailand
Monkey Beach, Thailand
All the water in Thailand looks like this. *sigh*
Damn. Is it summer yet?

Been busy and Coyote Whispers is done!
I've been writing up a storm. Last week I finished Steve and Doc's story, Coyote Whispers and I'm just waiting on a couple of readers to get back to me before I do one more read through and send it to my lovely editor, Grace. *fingers crossed she likes it as much as everyone has so far*
I also did the final check of the Truth Or Dare ARC. This gave me a super thrill because I wasn't real sure about this book for some reason but I can now say without a doubt that I LOVE it and can't wait for Jan 17th. *sigh* It seems so far away. *sob*
I'm now working on the next Party Games book, Spin The Bottle and I've left a little snippet of it HERE at the Down Under Divas blog. Hopefully I'll have this one done and on the brilliant Heidi's desk by end of month if not sooner.
So what's been happening in the world while I've had my head down writing?
