Retro Blogging

Friday, July 29th, 2011

Two blogging incidents have happened recently which have made me decide to retro blog (which I will explain momentarily & hope it’s not a term that describes a real thing).

1. My schedule at Contact Infinite Futures changed, putting all my scheduled blogging in the 3rd & 4th weeks of the month, which leaves potentially 3 weeks per month blog-free — surely that’s not a good idea, right?

2. Due to a catastrophic technical failure, the Flirty Author Bitches site had to be relaunched — sans my spectacular bon mots, words of wisdom and uh… romantic hero cage matches. Since I’m completely paranoid, I have all my blog entries back up. And since I don’t want to deprive the world of my words of wisdom (yes, I can hear the eye-rolling from here) I will repost some of those FAB posts here as… retro blogs. So, retro blogging is essentially me cheating by posting stuff I’ve already posted and through no fault of my own has since been deleted from the FAB site.

I’m also toying with the idea of 100 word blog entries, but I haven’t yet decided. So, next week, I’ll post my first retro blog.

New contract with Dreamspinner Press!

Tuesday, July 19th, 2011

So thrilled! I recently signed a contract with Dreamspinner Press for my first contemporary novel. It’s a lot harder (for me) to write a story that doesn’t have a vampire, werewolf or alien in it somewhere, so I was really pleased with the way this one turned out. It’s called Cop Out and it’s — surprise — the story of a cop coming out. It should be out before the end of the year, and I’ll post a blurb soon!

Mid Year Check In… AKA Oh, those New Year’s Resolutions…

Thursday, July 14th, 2011

Back at the beginning of the year, I posted my writing goals for the year. As a quick summary, I intended to write at least 215K words while completing (and hopefully submitting) 6 manuscripts. Well, I’m pleased to say I hit 171K words this week. There’s still half the year left; I’m definitely on target with word count. YAY! As for completed manuscripts, I have four done and one in progress. What do you think? Looking good? I think so! As for submissions, only two them are on submission so far, but I think — for the first year EVER — I came up with goals for the year that I could attain! Fingers-crossed for no catastrophes

Lords of Aether
- A Simple Complication May 12, 2012
  It turned out Spence was nothing like the chatter box Jacob was, and the companionable quiet came as a relief to Leo. And the relief itself, as a surprise. He’d never consciously disliked Jacob’s company, or the younger man’s constant nattering. Walking towards the wharf with Spence, he found he was enjoying the occasional and […]

- Confessions of the Lovelorn May 5, 2012
  Spence wandered downstairs, unable to stay in his rooms any longer. They smelled of Anthony and sex, neither of which he could bear at the moment. His legs felt like rubber from the force of the orgasms he’d had and from his emotional turmoil as well. Although dawn was barely beginning to peep over the […]

- The True and Scandalous history of the Lords of Aether – a digression April 27, 2012
  My history of this club is rapidly approaching the present day and the current load of limp wristed, gin swigging, somnambulant burgesses. (Poll is getting concerned about my language and is advising I resort to minced oaths and euphemisms. You’ll have to bear with me – or Beare with me – until I can work […]

- The Terror Within April 22, 2012
  Silas opened the doors to Byron’s library and gasped in pleasure. Most of the walls had shelving that went from the floor to the ceiling and every bit of space was filled with books. Since Silas craved knowledge more than food, he was powerless to resist the temptation they presented. He walked inside the room, […]

- Bad Anthony April 13, 2012
  Anthony took his leave from Shelley under the guise of needing to speak with Jack and Nash. So while Shelley still stood with Emmett Montgomery, Anthony slipped from the room behind his former lover. Jack shot him a surprised look, brows raised. Nash just smiled, a smug movement of his lips that told Anthony he […]

- A Tempting Invitation April 6, 2012
  Caleb sat stiffly, doing his best to avoid any contact with Montgomery, who’d seen fit to sit down next to him on the sofa. He recognized a number of the men, but seeing them all in a group was unexpected. He also had no idea why Montgomery had dragged him in. Accepting a commission hardly […]

- Summons March 30, 2012
  Jack hated being wrong. He hated being ineffectual. He hated admitting he couldn’t do something. He hated admitting he needed help. And he knew Anthony was fully cognizant of his failings too. It had gone against the grain for him to ask Anthony for help to find Nash. In part because of his failings and […]

- The True and Scandalous history of the Lords of Aether, Part the second March 23, 2012
  My account now comes within the realms of living memory, at least that of the club’s tortoise, Gazunder, who has remained loyal to the Lords of Aether since he was barely out of his eggshell and who still sees fit to take a leaf from Lord Anthony’s hand and pee in Jack’s slippers. Gazunder was […]

- A New Commission March 16, 2012
  Caleb tapped his fingers against the arm of his chair. A waiter looked over but Caleb waved him away. He’d already had far more to drink than was wise. Jaw tense, he pulled out his pocket watch again. Two and a half hours since Montgomery had gone upstairs to a private room. After six drinks, […]

- Escape March 10, 2012
  Worry hadn’t ever been a companion of Nash’s. Things always worked out for him in the end no matter how dire his circumstances. His mother spouted her metaphysical babble about him having been born under a perfect alignment of the moon, stars, planets and such as an explanation for his phenomenal luck. His father, the […]
