Happy Friday….
I’m happy the weekend is finally here, though it doesn’t really matter all things considered. I still do the exact same thing on the weekends that I do during the week…lol.
Okay…I just got the news that my Total e-Bound book release dates have changed. No biggie…they are all still coming out, but most of them will be coming out a month later than they’d been scheduled. It’s to accommodate some new pre-ordering and pre-release sales that Total e-Bound wants to set up for readers. So it’ll be new opportunities for you all.
Well, I hope you all have a great Friday and a wonderful weekend.
Two New Books…
Gypsies is available now from Total e-Bound. Click here to check it out. It’s the first book in a new trilogy called The Beasor Chronicles, and will also be available in print. 🙂
Here’s the blurb:
Book one in The Beasor Chronicles Series
Will the unconditional love of his best friend be enough to help heal Percy after almost being broken mentally and physically?
On Beasor, being a Gypsy gives Percy almost god—like status. His power over nature and animals could allow him to make a good living exploiting people, but he chooses to live with his best friend, Alden, over Alden’s pub in Catalai, the capital of Beasor. Percy loves Alden, but has never been able to tell Alden, afraid the truth would ruin their friendship.
In a fit of jealousy one night, Percy travels through the universes to Earth, and finds himself captured by two humans. As a magical Beasor, silk binds him to their will and Percy finds himself close to breaking in every way as the humans drain his magic.
When Alden rescues Percy, the best friends finally admit to their love, but Percy needs help to replenish his magic and find a way to ease the memories of his captivity. With Alden supporting him every step of the way, Percy fights to heal and become the Gypsy he was once.
Reader Advisory: This book is best read in sequence as part of a series
Angel’s Evolution was re-released on Friday by MLR Press. Click here to check it out. I missed announcing it last week. Sorry about that.
Here’s the blurb:
I’m a monster, but with one kiss, he changes everything I believe.
I’m a monster and I’m imprisoned in a world I hate and fear. As heir to my father’s title, I’m expected to marry, but my secret desires may keep me from fulfilling those expectations. One night, a stranger kisses me. In his touch, I see the possibility of a life beyond my prison. My name? Just call me Angel and this is my evolution.
Thank you for all your support. I’m hoping to get back on track today and get the next installment of Threadbare Gypsy Souls done as well. 🙂
Hope you all had a great weekend.
The Vanguard-New Cover
Here’s the new cover for The Vanguard, and while I love the original cover by Anne Cain, I love this one as well. 🙂 This will be re-released in September by Total e-Bound and it’s long enough to go into print as well. Yay!
Well, this is a quick post because we’re heading down to the zoo today, and I won’t have time later in the morning to post anything.
I hope you all have a great Friday and a wonderful weekend.
New Cover
This is the cover for the upcoming anthology I’m in at Total e-Bound. As you can see, there are some of the best m/m authors in it with me. 😀 The theme of the antho is conventions..and all our stories take place at one convention or another. My story is titled Ninja Cupcakes. I’m not sure about the others, but I know they’ll be awesome. 🙂 The antho releases August 6th, and then in December, each story will be released individually as well. Also, it’ll be going into print, and will be available at GayRomLit in October. Plus, I do believe all of the authors will be there to sign it for you. 🙂
I got another new cover yesterday as well, but I’ll be sharing that one with you on Friday. It’s the new cover for The Vanguard, and while I love the old one, this one is gorgeous in it’s own way…lol. The Vanguard will be re-released in Sept by Total e-Bound. 🙂
It’s my 40th birthday today…and I can’t think of better presents than beautiful cover art.
Hope you all have a great day.
Happy Hunk Day
There’s just something about this guy’s eyes and smile that I love. I had to post it. You can find the rest of the series at Beautiful Magazine. They have some awesome eye candy photos, but most of them aren’t safe for work. Just keep that in mind if you visit…lol.
I just got the news yesterday that Tramps, the second in The Beasor Chronicles, has been moved up to be released August 20th. Which means I need to get cracking and finish it up. The reason it’s being moved up is because Total e-Bound is re-releasing The Vanguard in September. Woo-hoo! I’m really excited about the whole thing because starting in July, I’ll have at least one book a month coming out from TeB, and in July, August, and Dec. I’ll have two books each of those months coming out. We’ve done our best to try and alternate new books with re-releases. So you’ll be getting something new from me every other month, plus all your old favorites with new covers.
I also just saw the cover for From Slavery to Freedom, and as soon as I get the okay, I’ll share it with you. I’m pretty sure we’ll be putting Slavery and Out of Light into Darkness together in a print book, which would be great. 🙂
I still have some other older books whose rights I’ve gotten back, and have to work out who they’re going to. As you might have noticed, you can no longer get Fighting Dragons, Ghost of a Chance, and Dreaming of Dragons from Loose-Id. I’m pretty sure I have a new publisher for them, so as soon as I can, I’ll let you know when those will be available again. Also, I still have to see about finding a home for Death or Life and Not Seeing is Believing. The reason those two don’t have a place yet is simply because I haven’t had the time to re-format them to the right template. As soon as I get a moment to do that, I’ll send them in, and let you know about them as well. 😉
I have final edits to do on Pursing Hope and Angel’s Evoultion. Those will be done today, I’m hoping…along with other things I’ve been neglecting. Most of which are forms I have to fill out…lol. I did let you all know Angel is being re-released by MLR Press, right?
Someone asked about Rover’s story, and I’m hoping I can get to it later this year. I have a few other stories I’ve promised first to different publishers, but as soon as those are done, I’ll be getting to his story. 🙂
Well, I think that’s all I have to say at the moment. I hope you all have a great Wednesday.
April’s Over?
Hey check it out. I’m in Total e-Bound’s Author of the Week spotlight, which means if you haven’t picked up one of my books from them yet, they’re 20% off this week. Woo-hoo! Click here to see.
I can’t believe it’s the last day of April all ready. Where the heck has this year gone? I swear the years never seemed to go so fast when I was younger…lol. At times, it seems like I can barely keep up. I’ll be working on Tramps today and for the next week or so to try and get it finished asap. I’d like to get another story done in May, then start on the last two Home books. When those two are done, I have two stories to write for Amber Allure. After they’re finished, I can rearrange my schedule a little to fit in a couple of stories I’ve really been wanting to write. We’ll have to see if my muse cooperates with me…lol. He doesn’t always go in the direction I’d like him to go. Stubborn muse. 🙂
I hope you all have a great Monday, even if it’s the start of the work week.
Good news
Well, as those of you who visit my site might have realized I took back my rights to all of my books at Liquid Silver. I’ve been finding homes for them, and Total e-Bound has been gracious enough to pick up my Home series, and Stealing Life, so far. They’re looking at a few of my other ones as well. But unfortunately, Angel’s Evolution wasn’t a good fit for them, so I sent it to MLR Press and asked them what they thought.
My awesome editor, Kris, has offered me a contract for Angel, which includes both ebook and print format. Yay! So Angel will have a new home and will also be in print. I can’t wait…lol. I have two more books planned in The Transformation Series (I had to come up with a series title when I decided to write two more books…lol) Devil’s Temptation and Shade’s Enlightenment. I’m hoping when my schedule opens up a little bit more closer to the end of this year, I’ll be able to write them for release some time next year. Once I get outlines written for them, I might be able to give you a better idea of when they’ll be out.
I have to really knuckle down and get cracking on Tramps. It’s been a rough go with this story. Not sure why, but finally it’s starting to flow and I’m hoping to get it done by the middle of May. 🙂
Have a great weekend, everyone. I’ll be writing away…lol
Death has arrived
Hey everyone, Death, the last book in The Four Horsemen series is out today. Check it out here.
Also, Famine, the third book in the series, is now available in print. Stop by and see it here. I hate to see this series end, but I do believe there might be a fifth book about a certain messenger angel named Lam, who has a few more scenes in Death’s story.
Also, while I was in Chicago, I had a short story release at MLR Press. Replacing Memories is the sequel to Joy of the Season, and lets you see how Hal and Tavis’s relationship is progressing. Check it out here.
Now that I’m back from Chicago, it’s time to knuckle down and write. I’ll be posting the next installment of my blog story tomorrow. I’m sorry I didn’t get to it last week, but I was very busy.
Have a great Monday.
Last Monday in February
Since it’s so close to the end of the month, I thought I’d let you all know what my news is. If you’ve gone to ARe, or really any of the 3rd party sellers-or to Liquid Silver Books website to look for any of my books published by them, you won’t find them. After four great years being published with them and working with them, I decided to take the rights back to all my books. The only two left with LSB at the moment are Where the Devil Dances, and Two for One. Because both of those are published with other authors, I had to wait the full 90 days before I could get those back. Which is fine with me.
Again, I want to emphasize that my decision had nothing to do with Liquid Silver Books. They’re great people, and I loved working with them. I just decided it was time to move my books somewhere else. The purpose behind it is to consolidate my publishers and make it a little less of a search for you, the readers, to find my books. If I have them at three or four publishers instead of six or seven, it’d be quicker…lol.
And the good news is Total e-Bound has decided to pick up the Home series and Stealing Life so far. The other books are under review with them. 🙂 So at the moment, I have release dates for them, barring any unforeseen problem. No Going Home will be re-released Oct. 15th, Home of His Own-Dec. 31st. Wishing for a Home-Jan 28th. Also, I have release dates for the last two books in the series, Leaving Home will be out Feb. 25th and Home Sweet Home will be out March 25th. Stealing Life will be out April 22nd. The other news is all of the Home books will be released in print as well. I added more to Wishing to get it up to the right word count for print. So that’s awesome news.
Now I know you’re all probably grumbling about having to wait until next year for the last two books in the series, but at least you have actual dates to mark on your calendar to look forward to. 🙂 There are six more LSB books that TeB will be taking a look at to see if they want them or not. If not, I do have other options to publishing them, so they will be re-released at some point.
I did a pre-release schedule from Total e-Bound that goes through April of 2013. That makes me happy, and it’s a schedule I can keep without pulling my hair out…lol. I finished From Slavery to Freedom on Friday, and sent it off to my beta reader. Once she’s done, and tells me everything I need to fix, I’ll get it in to my editor at TeB. FStF is scheduled to be released on July 31st. Woot! I’m working on The Deepest Cut at the moment, trying to get it finished as well. We’ll see how far I can get on that before I have to start the second book in The Beasor Chronicles trilogy.
There are plans to take back some other books back from another publisher of mine, but until it actually happens, I’m keeping as silent as I can about that. 🙂 Again, I’m taking my rights back for no other reason than it’s time to move on. It’s been fun working with all my different publishers. Simply time to gather my little ducklings into fewer baskets.
I hope you all have a great day.
Hunk Day
Wow..we’re heading down the homestretch of February, and again, it’s gone by so darn fast. There were some things I meant to do in Feb. but haven’t gotten around to them yet. I might have to push them into March. Ugh!
Anyway, writing is going well. I’m coming down to the last couple of chapters of From Slavery to Freedom. Then it’s on to the next book that needs to be written, plus one or two more that will be worked on as well during the month. Oh, I have good news. I’ve worked out a pre-release schedule with Total e-Bound that stretches all the way into April of next year. I’m so excited to have books with release dates that far in advance. It helps keep me honest about which ones I have to write, and keeps me on a schedule. But I’m also able to fit in other stories for my other pubs as well. 🙂 Which is always good…lol.
Have a great day, everyone.
