Wake up and smell the coffee....

Ahh...it's finally hear - Saturday! No waking up to the sound of the alarm. I can actually enjoy my coffee instead of gulping it down as I'm running around the house, making my kid's lunch, making my lunch or trying to figure out what to wear to work. Now, I know what you're  probably all thinking, "Why don't you do all this stuff at night?" Well there was a time long ago, in a galaxy far away that I did do all these things at night. So what happened, you ask - I started writing books and when I get on a roll all of my free time at night becomes consumed with writing. So, I just deal with the craziness that is my life and go with the flow. Now if you will excuse me, I have a cup of cinnamon pastry coffee with french vanilla creamer, that I need to be alone with! I just wanted to wish all of you a wonderful Saturday and remind you to take some extra time to stop and smell the coffee!

The S Factor

I really don't have anything to blog about today....just wanted all of you to see the face lift that I gave to my blog.....what do you think? I kind of like it! See what happens when you're ADHD starts kicking in when you're suffering a bout of writers block....you become creative in different ways!

Hmm....on second thought maybe I do have something to blog about - The Smut Factor! I was chatting with another author friend of mine today about you guessed it - writing those "steamy" scenes! Now, I will be the first one to admit, I love reading them....stink at writing them! Maybe it's because that little voice inside my head (I only have one of them. On a bad day maybe three....kidding!) is telling me "your mother will be reading this!" or  my grandmother's famous saying, "What would the nun's think?" is always etched into my mind.  I will say I did step up my smuttiness (if that's even a word) from The Exception to The Rule to An Unplanned Lesson. My face was pure red when an older woman that I work with told me be she had to go to bed because she was so tired after one particular scene from An Unplanned Lesson. I think I've even upped the smut factor another level in the novel that I'm currently working on....but I still like to keep it tasteful. So I guess my question is..... how do you like your smut?


Hand me a fanAhhhh they're so in loveClose the door I know what they're doing but I don't want to hear about it!
I think I'm a number two with a little bit of three. Don't be embarrassed to admit you're a number one. Embrace you inner smut Goddess and say it proudly:



Okay, for someone who had nothing to say, I sure said a lot! I should get back to my book....I'm feeling some good inspiration coming on!! Have a great night :)

Just Checking In!

Hey everyone! Sorry for not updating this blog like I should be! I've been trying my best to stay focused on writing my third novel, which I’m finding is going to be another tear jerker. Not sure if you will need as many tissues as you did for The Exception To The Rule….but I will keep you posted as I go along, so you can have an adequate supply on hand before it's released. I cannot tell you how pleased I am over the positive feedback that I’m receiving on An Unplanned Lesson. And for those of you that can’t get enough of Dailan O’Maley and have been asking about a second book….I’m thinking about it! I just want to make sure that my whole heart is in it. I don’t want to write it just to write it (if that makes sense). I want to be able to strengthen on Nicole and Dailan’s story without taking away from the original story. I’ve seen too many bad sequels to some really good movies….that’s why I’m a little hesitant about this one! I've been finally getting the idea of this whole Pinterest thing as well. For those of you that have read The Exception To The Rule, check out some of these great character inspiration photo’s for Kat & Julian that I've re-pinned from Smittens book blog. I think she did an excellent job with Kat & Julian, what do you guys think? http://pinterest.com/bethrinyu/the-exception-to-the-rule/
Why you're there, check out the pins that I started for An Unplanned Lesson http://pinterest.com/bethrinyu/an-unplanned-lesson/ I wish I could was more creative at this but I'm learning!! If you haven’t read my books and would like a chance to win a free e-copy of one.  There’s still time to enter the giveaway going on at: http://tammyandkimreviews.blogspot.com/2013/03/giveaway-unplanned-lesson-beth-rinyu.html?zx=a191985ddaeabd8a  Okay, that’s all for now....talk ya's soon! xo

What's in a name?

Wow....It's been almost a week since I last posted on here! I've been so busy with working on my third novel and trying to get the word out about my other two that I've been neglecting my blog postings...I apologize for that !
Speaking of my new novel, it took me a while but I have finally decided on a name for my main male character (I think). I was really having a hard time with it for this one! I still am open to suggestions and am willing to make a change if something strikes me. So please, feel free to leave your suggestions in a comment.



In other news.....I'm having a  "Help Me Get To 300 Likes" giveaway on my FB page so if you want have a chance to win.....you have to like my page https://www.facebook.com/BethRinyu and then share it with your friends!! Thanks a bunch :)

I want to say hello to all of my new Facebook friends and Twitters followers as well! I'm having so much fun discussing Dailan & Nicole's love story from An Unplanned Lesson with all of you guys! I'm so glad to hear that you guys love them as much as I do!

I've been working away on my third novel trying to make sure that these characters live up to the same standards as Kat & Julian and Dailan & Nicole.  Although I'm just getting to know them, I'm really starting to like them and I'm hoping you guys will too! So, now I'm off to spend the rest of my lunch hour getting to know these two a little better and getting a step closer to introducing them to you guys!

Have a great afternoon, morning, evening (depending on where you are!)

Just a quick hello....

Sorry that I have been M.I.A these past few days and not keeping up on my blog posts! Just wanted to drop in and let all of you know that I appreciate all of the kind e-mails, facebook messages and positive reviews that I've been getting about my latest novel An Unplanned Lesson. To say that I'm in total shock over the amount of downloads that it's getting is an understatement! I am so happy to finally be sharing Nicole and Dailan's romance with the rest of the world! I'm also noticing with some of the feedback that I'm receiving about Dailan O'Maley - either you love him or you hate him! Believe it or not, that makes me happy, because that is exactly what a set out to do when I created him. I personally LOVE him, but what kind of author would I be if I didn't love my own characters, even when they aren't on their best behavior! So if you haven't met him yet, get to know him and let me know what you think! If you have read met him and read my book,  would you please mind leaving a review from wherever you may have purchased it ....I really appreciate it :)
Oh and if you are looking for the paperback version, I'm hoping that amazon will have the link up by the end of the week or you can purchase it from here: https://www.createspace.com/4192137
