Rain Days…and Mondays….
That was the first song to play on my Ipod as I drove into work, and I thought it was fitting…lol. I’m still sick, hoping to stick out as much of my day at work as possible. Heck, I only have to be here three days this week. 🙂 Not like that’s a hard ship. Just when I don’t feel good, all I want to do is curl up with a blanket and my computer. Yeah, yesterday I was sick, so I had the football games on and wrote a little bit on a couple different stories.
Embrace My Reflection will be out Feb. 13th. Perfect Valentine’s Day treat for you all, plus I’m going to write a Christmas story featuring Ronnie and Lucius from EMR for next Dec. Woot! I wrote a little bit on Destroying Belief, the story next on my list. Got some done on Bound by Trust, though I didn’t type that in. I wrote that long hand. 🙂 I did a little bit on Trailing Air (Rover’s story), and a little bit on Mars’ Assassin. Now MA isn’t close to the top of my list to finish up soon, but I just got a scene in my head for it and had to write it down. So progress was made on several stories yesterday.
I’m finishing up edits on I Call Death Dad. As soon as I get those done, they’ll get sent to the proofer for line edits. So the end of the tunnel is close on that story. 🙂
I hope you all have a great Monday, and may your work week be short as well.
Geek withdrawal
I know everyone is going through Geeks withdrawals. I am too…lol. But while I can type a little bit at a time, I still can’t type long enough to get the installments done. So I’m going to wait and work on it this weekend. You’ll get at least two installments next week, if not four. Depending on how well my hand does. 🙂 I do have a few other things I need to get done this weekend as well.
I hope you’re all doing well aside from your withdrawals…and don’t worry, Chuck and Herb will return to their usually scheduled days next week.
Bad news….
I know I probably already used this photo, but hey, it’s hot. 🙂 I thought why the heck not use it again?
The bad news is my hand and wrist aren’t really any better, so I’m resting it again. Hopefully, it’ll be okay tonight. If not, I might end up giving you four installments next week. Which I bet wouldn’t be too upsetting to you, except you’ll have to go without this week.
I hope you all have a great Wednesday, and I’m going to keep my fingers crossed that my hand gets better.
Good Morning…
Running a little behind today. I guess that’s okay since it is a Monday…lol.
Did another 3k on Embrace My Reflection over the weekend. Getting closer to finishing it. I had hoped to be done with it by now, but real life sometimes steps in. 🙂 But I’ll do my best to finish it up this week.
Oh, Dracul’s Blood is up for Book of the Month over at Dark Diva Reviews. Hop over there and check it out. There are a lot of other great books nominated as well. So vote for whichever one you liked the best. (It doesn’t have to be mine…lol)
That’s about all I’ve got today. I hope you have a great Monday and that it’s at least sunny where you are. It’s sunny but really cold here.
TGIF…
Seriously…this week has been crazy. I haven’t been at my computer all week at work, and when I get home, all I want to do is go straight to bed…lol. Oh well, I’ll have time to write this weekend, and that’s what I plan on doing. 🙂 I really really want to get Embrace My Reflection done a.s.a.p.
I wanted to thank everyone for helping Wolf’s Survival stay on Amber Allure’s Best Seller list for a second straight month. It dropped to #4, but heck, it’s still on there, right?
Hmmm…not much else to report. I hope you all have a great Friday and a wonderful weekend.
1st day of November…all ready?
Where has this entire year gone? Wow…it seems like only yesterday I was talking about Soothe The Burn coming out in February. Now tomorrow will be the release of my print book, Tabloid Love, which has Tabloid Star and With This Ring in it. 🙂 Woo-hoo! My twelve print book.
Well, Embrace My Reflection is moving right along. I’ve hit the 21,000 mark in word count, which is great. I’m thinking I have three more chapters to write, giving me 32,000 words at the end of the story. We’ll see though. It might run longer or be a little shorter. I don’t mind. 🙂 But I’m hoping it’ll be done this week. I plan on finishing Destroying Belief after that. Once that one’s done, I’ll be working on Bound by Trust and some other stories. Have to go through my list and see which ones need to be in line after JT’s story.
I hope you all have a great day.
Sorry about being late…
I know I’m late posting anything, but I slept in today. I’m not feeling all that great, so I called in sick and decided to take it easy. If I feel up to it later on, I might do some writing.
Embrace My Reflection is going really well. The story just feels like it needs to be told, and Ronnie and Lucius are talking to me a lot. Which is always a good sign. 🙂
Well, I hope you have a great Friday and a wonderful weekend, everyone.
Windy Wednesday
So I figured out that Falling in Love…Again wasn’t working out. Something about it just didn’t feel right, though I have gotten quite a bit written on it. I decided to set it aside for now and work on something else for the Dec. 1st deadline.
In walks Ronnie and Lucius, and their story, Embrace My Reflection. Ronnie’s a cross-dresser who works at a cabaret in New Orleans, and Lucius is a NOPD detective and also was Ronnie’s first lover back in high school. (Actually they only made love once before Lucius left for the army) Ronnie’s having a problem with a stalker and Lucius comes to help him out.
I started it Monday night and already have over 8k written on it. Woot! It’s really flowing for me and this time, the story feels right. I’m hoping to get at least 20k for it, but we’ll see where it ends up. 🙂 I will come back to Falling in Love…Again, but probably not for a little while until I work out what’s wrong with the story…lol.
Tonight, I have to get the next installment of Geeks done, then it’ll be back to working on Embrace.
I hope you all have a great day. 🙂
It’s raining…
here…and it’s dark and gloomy. Ugh! I hate Mondays like this, but the great news is I only have 47 more days left. Yep…I’m quitting my job to write full time. 😀 I’m excited and nervous about it all at the same time. Starting Jan. 3rd, I’ll be working from home…which in a way makes me really happy because I won’t have to drive in the snow unless I really want to…lol. Hopefully, it means even more books out as well.
I made good progress on Falling in Love…Again, but it doesn’t seem to be flowing quite right. It’s one of those things where it just feels off. It’s hard to explain. 🙂 But while I was trying to fall asleep last night, I came up with a really good story line that I’m going to start working on and with just a little tweaking, it’ll be perfect for the PAX that is due on Dec. 1. As soon as I get a title and flesh out the story line, I’ll let you all know about what it’s about.
Oh, and there’s a contest going on at ARe, Just One Bite Short Story Contest. Our wonderful friend, Jambrea, has a story in the running. If you haven’t already voted, maybe you could stop by and check out all four stories. Vote for the ones you like in each bracket. Here’s the link. You have to register at ARe (If you don’t already have an ‘account’ there) Thanks for taking the time out to look at them. 🙂
Have a great Monday. Hope it’s nicer where you are.
Ugh!!!
It’s Monday. That’s about all I have to say about today…lol.
But it was a good weekend. I got Voice for the Silent almost finished. I’ve got another 3k or so to do. I have to finish up one sex scene and write another. After that, I have to do the synopsis before sending it off to the publisher. Woo-hoo! Then I’ll start working on Falling in Love…Again and Destroying Belief. Both stories got put on the back burning when Julio and Paine burst on the scene and wanted to tell me their story right now.
Of course, I got another idea over the weekend and did a little thinking on it. I haven’t written much down, but it’ll get put on the list to be written. 🙂
Let’s see…nothing else amazing happened to me, so I’ll just say have a great Monday, everyone.
