Busy [Work] Week
2017 #ROW80 Round 1:Check-In #4 |10 Minute Novelist: Update #2
Based solelyon numbers, I have done almost as much work this week than last. Which is good, but I don’t feel as accomplished. I wanted to be done with all the re-reading and planning today so I could start writing tomorrow. That’s not happening. Well, maybe. I can start the extensionfor Binding Jax’s Heart and go from there.
Today is cover reveal day for me at Scattered Thoughts and Rogue Words. Therefore, the plan for the week is...

Even if Webb wanted a May-December romance to work, it might be too late if he can’t win Dario’s trust.
Dario Navarro is a twenty-four-year-old man who has taken care of his ill mother his entire life. When his mother’s illness gets to be too much and he has to put her in a nursing home, rediscovering himself turns out to be harder than it seems. All he wants is someone to rely on, who has his back. He’d thought maybe Webb could be that person, but Webb’s iss...

30 Weeks of Kink: Week #2 – 1/12/2017
Week 2: List Your Kinks!
I might have many kinks or none, but this is about my books. When I’m writing a BDSM story, I have to be careful not touse the same toys, and elements over and over again. As a reader, I hate when all the books have similar scenes, and I try to stay away from classics like gags, basic floggers, bondage, and definitely, watersports. I thought about including golden showers, but I don’t think I’m quite there, yet. Maybe enemas? Soon?
Well, my favorite kink is mental pla...

Writing Guides Obsession
2017 #ROW80 Round 1: Update #3
One thing I do before I start a new project is to read about writing. For some, it might seem unnecessary since each book serves as practice for the next, but, I like to find new ways to make the next #WIP sail smoothly. I’m still trying to get comfortable into a writing structure.
I’m not much for following the same formula for each project. Each one is a new challenge and for it, I need a new set of skills or at least, to freshen up what I know. Perhaps when I...

He expected something to be wrong with her daughter or perhaps her husband, but never in his wildest dreams had he expected the call to be about Madison Bishop having a m...

It’s been a while since I wrote a flash fiction piece. The #MondayFlashFic grouphad a Winter event, but I didn’t get the chance to participate. So here’s my modified entry.

Snowed Beach
“Let me get this clear. You invited me here—” Jason said, pointing at their surroundings, “to see the beach for the first time. And now, all I’m seeing is your backyard, covered in snow, and we can’t even throw a line in that pond of yours because everything is frozen.”
“Are you done? Because I live in Virgi...

Feeling Encouraged
2017 #ROW80 Round 1:Check-In #2 |10 Minute Novelist: Update #1
This week has been interesting. Getting back into the routine is taking longer than I expected, but it’s been very fulfilling. Yes, there are things like updating my website that I haven’t had the time to do, but I’m up-to-date with everything else; including my reviews.
Writing might take an extra week because I want to do some planning before I start. It’s one of the things I kept moving to the next day. I know my main character...
