Southern Sizzle Blog

Standard

I am one of seven members that blog on the Southern Sizzle Romance blog. We each blog one day a week. Saturdays are my day to blog. I have dubbed my day Bad-urday as I feature bad boys of fiction- books and films.  This month is our one year anniversary as a group blog. We have Dianna Love as our guest blogger of the day and she’ll be blogging about her series co-written with Sherrilyn Kenyon. The heros of these books are all employed by the BAD Agency. An agency so secret, even the CIA knows nothing about it. It is an awesome series.  Not paranormal which is usually Sherrilyn’s forte.  I love these books.  The first is Phantom in the Night. I bought it at LaGuardia Airport on a trip home from New York a few years ago- before I ever knew Dianna- and I loved it. 

The second one  is Whispered Lies (my personal favorite),  and then there is Silent Truth.  On September 28, 2010, a novella will be released.  It is in an anthology called Deadly Promises and I’ll be lined up to get it.  It’ll be my only one that isn’t autographed so I’ll have to wait til I see Dianna again to get that one signed.  She’s an awesome writer and a great person.  I highly recommend her work- I hope you’ll all drop by and check out the SS post on the 14th- here’s the link:

Here are the covers of the books so far- there are more coming in the future- stayed tuned as I’ll  update you on the series as the books are released- here’s hoping for a long run.

Home From RWA

Just got back from Romance Writers of America National conference.  Am quite done in. Really.  But I came home to an awesome email- the cover for the next Halloween Anthology.  I have a story in it called The True Believers.  This is a wicked cool cover and I’m happy with it. Whortleberry Press is stepping up their game with these covers.  This one reminds me of the cemeteries in New Orleans.

 I believe the book will be available Sept. 1, 2010.  The last one came out  a week early so we’ll see if this one does as well.

My story is called Rumpelstiltskin’s Quest. Hope you’ll enjoy it if you read it. It was a fun one to write.

Lighthouse again

Standard

Had a plan for a story for a Halloween anthology- had the first ten or so lines rattling around in my  head for a few days.  It was going to take place in New Orleans- or near New Orleans, I should say.  At Oak Alley.  But, little did I know, the trip to Pensacola Lighthouse with Cynthia Eden on the 4th of July weekend for a ghost hunt was still lurking in the old noggin.

Started the story and lo and behold, these characters were NOT at Oak Alley, they were at the lighthouse.  Rascals.  Didn’t let me in on that one til the writing  process was underway.  I always say I like to be surprised by my characters and they got me this time.

Woke up  this moring with the premise of a story I plan to submit to an anthology about Dream Lovers.  Here’s the place that inspired me.  Check out the lovely gardens.  Can’t you imagine a dream lover here?
