What Not To Google – Seven #SexySnippets on #MySexySaturday
Even angels are guilty of Google image searches for strange and sexy things: She couldn’t blame them – she was particularly partial to a well-muscled male torso, too. Admittedly, it had been a while since she’d been close enough to touch such a torso, but she held out hope that she might, sometime soon… Mel […]

Practice Your Poker Face – It’s Time to Play
I learned to play poker when I was five. A friend of my parents taught me, when I was supposed to be having an afternoon nap during a grown-ups party. Pontoon came two or three years later, when we were on holidays with another family, at a rented beach house at Cape Peron. The two […]

Crocodiles and Children – Coastal Romance Valentine’s Day Blog Hop
I love Valentine’s Day, yet I’ve never written a Valentine’s Day love scene.

Lucifer likens his lot to some of Shakespeare’s characters – Othello and Desdemona – as he reserves a special circle in Hell for authors: “I love you,” she’d whispered, even as she’d died at his hands. What kind of tragedy ended with words of love for her murderer from his victim? Who would write such […]

The Lure of the Lighthouse – #DCCC – Demelza Carlton’s Cursed Coast Episode 6

Tunnels and Torture – Buckland Hill Battery
“You have to go see them. They’re just…wow. And they’re open every Sunday…” A chance encounter with a Maori man in the Royal Australian Air Force Association (RAAFAWA) Aviation Heritage Museum yielded an emphatic invitation to check out the tunnels at Buckland Hill Battery, otherwise known as Leighton Battery. Admittedly, I was looking for information […]

What Have You Done? – Seven #SexySnippets on #MySexySaturday
Mel goes above and beyond the call of duty as she reveals Satan’s secret talent: “What have you done?” Raphael said as he stared at Mel, scared. “That’s not just any demon – he’s the Lord of Hell!” “He came to me and begged for my help. I’d do no less for a human and […]

The Depths of Hell – Dante’s Inferno Without Dan Brown (Part 2)
Time to go back to Hell – deeper, darker, to Lucifer’s lair…all for Mel Goes To Hell. Originally inspired by a badly-placed briefcase, this story has evolved from a series of comic shorts to something deeper with more angels, more demons and which ventures from the depths of Hell to the very gates of Heaven itself […]
