Breakthrus and Stuff

I had a delicious breakthrough about Levi and Van the other night, one that put the excited spark back in ma belly. Means as soon as I finish the book I’m working on, I’ll be going back to the boys. I went back and read over what I’d written before, sobbed as per usual, and let the stuff ruminate in my brain. There’s a lot of things I don’t know about Levi and that’s the way it should be, they all let me in the deeper I get into writing the story, but he’s a tough nut. I’ll break him, I alway...

Levi, Van, and Audio Books

A reader emailed me with a very thought provoking question last night. But not in the way you’d think. Thanks Dee :-)


Is the reason I can’t get into Levi and Van because Levi slept with JP when he’s still married to Van?


No. But…


There’s a but.


In case you guys weren’t sure, Levi and Van are indeed married in the very legal sense. How that is will be explained in their book, but yep. Very married. But when Levi found out about Van’s deceit and the real reason they got together in the first place, h...

Things…

Started a new project yesterday. The third book in the Fantasies: Thr33 trilogy. MMF. Gotta get that done because I told the publisher it would be a trilogy and so…yeah…gotta make it so. Lucky for me those stories are short stuff. Should be quick and easy to punch that one out.


Should be. Because the instant I say shit like that, the story automatically turns into a freaking long ass thing. So fingers crossed.


I aim to take up the mantle of Levi and Van after that. Yeah. We’ll see how that goes...

Final Part: Sinner Like Me

Swear to God. There is nothing as sad as typing “The End” on a Sinners project. But we have come to the end of yet another Sinners episode.I’ll take a few days then reread to fix any errors then turn it into a PDF and put it up on the Free Reads page. You can download it to your kindle, for those who’ve been thinking they’d have to come back again and again to reread. I can walk you through that in the comments so let me know if you need help.


I have to get rid of the mental block that’s stopp...

Release Day

asnightfalls1sIt’s a wet, snowy mess outside my window this morning so Mr. A and I decided to keep kid home from school. This means a day of TV, reading and playing around, but no writing. So we’ll be back to our regularly scheduled business tomorrow.


In the meantime, As Night Falls is officially out at Evernight, and Amazon.Chapter One is up if you haven’t checked that out yet, and please remember it’s MMF. The cover kinda says it all, but still…MMF means that the men also have sex with each other. Always...

Part 14: Sinner Like Me


PS: I’ll let you know when it’s the final part, by actually saying Final Part so unless you see those words, there’s more to come.

Playing host to a bunch of rowdy men wasn’t as hard as it should have been. Syren just stood back and gave everyone free run of the house. That w...

Part Thirteen: Sinner Like Me

The thing about sitting down to write without a single idea of what will happen, is that your characters will always take over and surprise the hell outta you. It’s why I never know what the hell will happen until I actually, literally, type it out. That being said, this is by no means the end. The characters have more to say, apparently, much more. I’m not even gonna tell you how much more parts are left. More tomorrow, for sure.


As Night Falls, Fantasies: Thr33, book 2, will be out on Wednes...

Part Twelve: Sinner Like Me

He still couldn’t make himself speak. Syren rubbed the towel over his still-damp hair and looked around. Kane was in the bathroom brushing his teeth. After saying his piece, he’d helped Syren out of the tub and dried his skin. He’d said what he had to, and it was Syren’s move.


Did he want to make that move?


He...

Part Eleven: Sinner Like Me

I’m back from feeling sorry for myself. LOL Took the whole weekend for that. Remember howI said there were two parts left? Welp. Turns out it’s three, because the boys had to talk. They wanted to talk. So yeah. After this one, there’s two more.

By the time they made their way to their hotel and the room they’d booked, Kane was beat. Dead tired. Syren remained next to him, silent since they’d left Vince. Kane didn’t know what he should say. He hadn’t expected that...
