In the meantime I want to add a few words about birthdays and how I CANNOT believe I’ve been writing gay erotic romances for FIVE years! Seems like thirty! Naaaahhh…kidding.
In the five years I’ve been pestering you folks with my latest releases and Facebook posts (back when I started, MySpace was the king of social media) but anyhoo, I’ve seen a lot of trends come and go, publishers come and go, authors good and bad come and go and I’ve seen cake.
Plenty of cake.
I do like to eat cake and I blame author Amelia June for once telling me that one should eat cake when writing sex scenes.
My brain refuses to let go of this idea. I dream of cake. Big, luscious gobs of gooey cake. I’ve tried eating fat free muffins. I’ve even tried my cousin’s recipe that involves flax seed. Let me tell you, unless you relish the idea of spending hours in the bathroom, don’t cook with flax seed.
I’ve tried candy. Fat free and otherwise. I’ve tried chocolate. It comes a close second to cake.
Damn you cake. I love you!
I don’t eat it often. Not as often as my tiny mind would like but judging by my girth my brain and body think I have. I go by the reward system as a way to ease my cake-free world. A cupcake for every 10,000 words I write. This has worked well but lately I’ve been sort of cheating myself. Yes. I confess. I’ll allow myself some sort of cake per thousand words. Yes, soon I’ll be the size of a house boat.
As for the kinds of cake I like, I must admit I don’t go for healthy stuff much (see above) and I am not much of a cake baker. Perhaps this is a good thing. I have to buy my cakes. I did at the suggestion of my friend, author Silver Pixies try the Martha White packet mixes.
Oh, dearie me. They work. They are tasty. My fork is ready. I even went online and Googled Martha White. She has a packet mix for blueberry coffee cake. Even a cake dunce like me can manage that! I see cake in my immediate future.
Damn you Martha White. You feed my addiction. I love you! Can you possibly rustle up a red velvet mix? I love everything else you have that I’ve tried. My love scenes depend on your response…
And what about you my darling readers, authors, friends, co-conspirators? How do you celebrate birthdays, word counts or anything else you consider a milestone? Do you love cake?
