State of Sara

Since I haven't done one of these since May, I thought I'd do a little update to catch up. Since the last State of Sara, I released two books: Midnight's Ghost (science fiction romance), the first book in the Star Runner Saga, came out in May and Blood Fever (urban fantasy erotic romance), the second book in the Rebirth series was released in July.

I also sold Midnight's Shadow (science fiction romance), the second book in the Star Runner Saga. It's set for a early 2011 release, more than likely right around January.

My editor and I just finished edits on my next release, Hardware (contemporary erotic romance) and I suspect it should be released soon. I'm really, really excited to get to share this one with readers and can't wait for it to release. It's not too often you find a story where the woman is the 'geek'. And it's an opportunity for me to stretch my wings a little in a new genre and up the heat level even more in my writing. I had a few O_o moments going through edits–"Whoa. I wrote that!?!? That's HOT!"

Speaking of the writing front, I'm working on a few pots at once–which is usual for me. I'm nearly finished with the first "re-draft" of the third Rebirth book, which does have a firm title now. The book was actually completed two years ago, but as I've learned things in the past year of publishing, I've gone back and scrubbed through the manuscript I had. The main plot is still intact, but it needed to be re-worked as I wasn't that happy with what I had. Needless to say, the new draft is nearly done and filled with action, excitement and yes, a firm–and scorching HOT–resolution to the Logan/Evande/Quinn triangle.

I'm also working on a book set in the same small town I've created for Hardware. So, yes, another contemporary for me. Again, like Hardware, this book–which is currently untitled–pushes into new territory for me, even further than Patrick and Allison in Hardware do with their…tastes. So if you like full-on triad relationships, this work in progress is going to be for you.

There's also a new urban fantasy romance in the works, this one dealing with sentinels. This one is tentatively titled Fighting Daybreak and deals with an group of lesser Fae who spend their days guarding buildings and their nights saving the world. Yep, they be gargoyles.

I've also got a few chapters hammered out for a post-apocalyptic paranormal romance (wow, say that a few times fast) dealing with shifters. Have to say, I love the characters in just a very short amount of time, so I'm looking forward to diving in with them at some point.

Believe it or not, there's more. Yes, I'm perfectly sane, thanks for asking. I'm working on a co-authored paranormal romance. At this point, there are a whole lot of emails being exchanged with lots of  "!!!!!!" in the body of the emails. Needless to say, we're cooking up something awesome. But that's easy, cause she's awesome-sauce.

There's also some other things in the works, but it's way to early to mention as I'm still working on plots and such for them. But, this brain of mine, is filled with ideas, stories and characters and I look forward to being able to share them!
