I Suck @ Twitter

There. I said it. I totally suck when it comes to microblogging. I didn’t always. I have friends who used to get all excited when I’d pop on my original twitter and start dweeting porn.

Dweeting = Drunk + Tweeting. Porn is self-explanatory.

Yep, I’d have two or three glasses of wine, start watching a great scene on my laptop that I’d either link to or credit, and then I’d start describing in graphic detail what was happening on screen, along with my candid reactions. You didn’t need to watch...

I Thought I Knew

I thought I knew everything about these characters after working with them for so long. At the very least, I thought I knew the parts of them they were willing to share, things I wasn’t even willing to blatantly share with readers because when Kevin whispered the secrets about how much his father’s emotional abuse hurt him, I knew I needed to stay quiet about the details.

But tonight as I finished up my third edits with my publisher on Flare, book 3 of North Star, I had an epiphany. Yes, it wa...

5 Stars for Fusion

I was blown away today by Sandra at My Fiction Nook. I was leaving work, feeling apathetic after a mediocre class when I started to read Sandra’s review of Fusion.

I loved this!!!

For a second installment, despite the heavy topic and the pain and the drama that ensued, this book was as close to perfection for me as possible.

She went on to say so much more and all spoiler free, so go read the rest of her review.

Heartwarming Kink

That’s a pretty good description ofFeathers From the Sky, which was released today. I re-read it after not seeing it for a good month, and there is certainly some kinkiness found in this story.

Jay Northcote talks about The Little Things

Today I’m lucky enough to have my good friend Jay Northcote visiting my site. She’s here to talk about her wonderful new book, but I’ll let her tell you all about it rather than getting in her way.

Thank you, Posy, for hosting me again as part of my mini blog tour to promote my new release, The Little Things.

Today I’d like to talk about love.

As a romance writer, love is obviously a subject that fascinates me. Back when I was a teenager (far too many years ago) and going through the wonderful c...
