Wicked Wednesday

Well, I was far busier this weekend than I planned. I didn’t get a lot done, but I made up for it yesterday. Added another 3k to Shades of Dreams, which is coming along. I’m hoping to have it finished by the middle of Sept. Once that happens, I’ll let you know when the release date for it is.
Aside from my blog story, I’ve been working exclusively on Shades. ๐
Thank you to everyone who left a comment on my post for last Friday. I really am floored by your support. And for those of you who are disappointed, thank you for posting as well. You have every right to feel that way and to say something about it.
I hope you all have a great Wednesday.
Friday thoughts….

I thought Iโd give you all some eye candy to start the weekend off right. ๐
But I need to have a serious moment with all of you. Thereโs something that I need to get off my chest and itโs been bugging me for quite some time. Iโve just never been able to figure out the best way to say it. After talking with some good friends, Iโve decided just to come out and say it.
Iโm female. I chose my pen name for personal reasons and never really thought Iโd meet people I would come to consider good friends online. Then like a snowball rolling downhill, it got bigger and bigger until I had to chose; get swept under it or stop it. Iโm choosing to stop it from taking over. Being honest with you all is a new start. But even though those reasons still exist, I couldnโt in good conscious continue to stay quiet about this.
As odd as it might sound, though Iโve never met any of you, youโve all become important to me as readers and as people in your own right. You deserve to know the truth. I want to be able to look my readers and friends in the eye knowing there are no misconceptions about who I really am. I will now be able to meet some of you at conventions without the worry of discovery.
I canโt imagine how any of you might feel right now and you are more than welcome to vent on my blog about it. I didnโt mean to hurt anyone by my omission, but I donโt blame you at all if you feel betrayed, hurt or angry because of it.
Please understand that Iโm very sorry for not having said anything before this. I hope you can forgive me and keep stopping by my blog to check out the eye candy.
I hope everyone has a wonderful and safe holiday weekend. And I do plan on posting something on Labor Day. ๐

This is a quickie post. ๐ I have to head out for an all-day meeting, so I won’t be around. I wanted to make sure you got some kind of eye candy to start your day.
Oh, and for the person who asked about Home of His Own not being available on Amazon. I have it on good authority that it’s being worked on. The thing about Amazon is, no matter how fast the publisher is on making a book available to Amazon, Amazon itself takes as long as it wants to actually list it. But I did want you to know its being rectified. ๐
I hope you all have a great day.
Another Friday….

8 more hours or so before the weekend officially starts. Ugh! I don’t want to be here. I want to be home enjoying the last days of summer…lol. Okay, enjoying the last days of summer has nothing really to do with the fact that I don’t want to be at work today. ๐
Got a bunch written on Shades yesterday, so I’m happy about that. It’ll be at least 40k, if not more. That means it’ll go into print. Woo-hoo! Maybe I should see about adding Be the Air for You to it…make it an anthology with rockers. That way you can have both stories in one. Hmm…might have to think on that.
Well, I don’t have anything else to talk about. I hope you all have a great time today and this weekend.

I’m loving this whole series of photos. If you go to www.beautifulmag.eu and check them out. They aren’t work safe, and neither are most of the pictures on the site. Just so you know.
Okay…I’m making great progress on Shades. I’m hoping to be done by the beginning of Sept. If I can do that, there’s the possibility of it coming out in Oct. If not Oct., then Nov. at the latest.
Please, give Stephan a chance. That’s all I’m asking. The poor guy isn’t having the best time of it at the moment, but he isn’t a complete dick. Maybe I made Rocky too perfect. I have plans for Lee, Hal, and Stone. None of which include Rocky or Stephan. Those two guys were meant for each other. In a way, it’s like an older man falling in love with a younger guy, but letting the younger guy spread his wings a little and grow up before committing to him. At least, that’s how I see it.
Hope everyone has a great day. ๐
Wicked Wednesday

Good morning, everyone. ๐ At least I hope it’s good wherever you are.
Writing is going well. I’m managing 3k a day on my stories. I have a schedule set up where I work on one story Mon, Wed, and Fri. A different story on Tues. and Thurs. A third story over the weekend. The two that I work on during the week are two that I have deadlines for. The third one is one without a deadline, but I’d like to finish sooner rather than later. I’ve been doing pretty good and getting about 3k a day done on them. As soon as one is done, I move the weekend story into the weekday slot and pick another weekend one to work on. It keeps me busy, but also keeps me interested, so I don’t get bored with any specific one. ๐
That’s really all I have to talk about today…lol.
I hope you all have a great Wednesday and remember it’s all downhill to the weekend from here.
All I Can Say….

Thank God, it’s Friday. Feeling like crap, but I hate calling in sick on a Friday. Not sure why. Probably because I don’t want anyone to think that I’m trying to get a jump on the weekend. Not today. I might leave early though, depending on whether or not the medicine I took works. ๐
To be honest, I have nothing exciting to talk about. My mind is mush at the moment, so I hope you enjoy the picture. There’s just something about it that I love.
Have a great Friday and a good weekend, everyone.

Morning, everyone. This picture makes me wish I’d stayed in bed…lol. ๐
Someone asked about seeing Stephan’s picture…well, you’ll be getting that next week on the 19th…which happens to be the last post for Shades of Dreams. What you’ll have gotten on the blog is basically the first two chapters of the story. And yes, they are in Rocky’s p.o.v., but don’t worry. Stephan talks as well, so you’ll get to know both of them.
As for a happy story, I have one I started a while ago for a publisher’s submission call, but I ended up not having time to finish it. It’s about a technology-challenged guy and the geek he falls in love with. I’m going to pull it out, dust it off, and see if it’ll speak to me. I’ll see about writing up a blurb for you all to check out as well. At some point in the near future. ๐
I hope you all have a great day.
It’s done….

Not Shades of Dreams….lol. But my YA, I Call Death Dad, is finished. I sent it to a CP to look over and then it’ll be on to the publisher. Woot!
Now I’ll be working on a couple different stories until one really catches my attention. One is Dreams…which I’ve decided to pull…though what will happen is there will be installments up until the 19th. I already have those written and scheduled. I just don’t want to take the time to pull them down. So, you’ll still be getting Rocky and Stephan for a couple more weeks. I plan on working on their story to finish it up and sub it. I also have two stories I need to finish by Dec. 1 for Amber Allure. I’ll be writing on them as well. We’ll see how well that goes…lol.
Thank you for letting me know what you think. It always helps to get a second opinion. Now I have to figure out the next blog story…or at least get two blurbs ready for you to pick one. ๐
I hope you have a great Monday.
