68th Anniversary of D-Day
for all of you who had someone who fought during World War Two and on this day, sixty-eight years ago, on the beaches of Normandy, tell them thank you for risking their lives to keep all of us free.
I don’t really have much news today. I’ll be writing as much as I can today. Only 8-9k away from hitting my word count for Tramps, and I’d really like to hit it in the next day or two. Then I can get some short stories finished before I jump into Thieves, the last book in The Beasor Chronicles. 🙂
I hope you all have a great Wednesday.
First week of June
Good morning, everyone. 🙂 I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I did, though it rained most of the time. I wanted to point out that if you come looking for any of the posts for They Walk Among Us, I’ve deleted them. It’s time to start a new blog story. While I normally would give you two blurbs to chose from, unfortunately I don’t have time to come up with two of them. So I picked a story that has a little bit of everything in it…lol. There’ll be bikers, cowboys, paranormal and romantic suspense elements in the story. We’ll see how it all works out…lol. I’ll be posting the blurb tomorrow, and then on Thursday, you’ll get to see the guys I’ve chosen to represent my characters, and read a little about them. The actual story will start next Tuesday. 🙂
I have a lot of writing to do today, so I’ll let you all go and I hope you have a great Monday.
Another new Cover and Blurb
From Slavery to Freedom is the sequel to Out of Light into Darkness, my vampire story. This one will be out at the end of July, and then hopefully we’ll be able to combine the two of them into a print book. 🙂 It’s not up on the Coming Soon page at Total e-Bound yet, so I can’t give you a link. I thought I’d share the blurb with you though. 🙂
Blurb:
Can a caged human learn how to be free, and break down the bars imprisoning a demon’s heart?
Malachi has spent centuries as the bodyguard and head security guard for Andor, a master vampire. He’s never concerned himself with the humans around him, seeing them as lesser creatures. It isn’t until Andor falls in love with a human, that Malachi begins to see some value in them.
Since he was fifteen, Doll has lived in a cage, being used and beaten by humans and vampires alike. Some days, he’s not even sure he’s sane any more, but some hidden strength keeps him going on instead of begging for death.
In fateful night, Doll and Malachi cross paths, and it changes their lives forever.
Sorry about posting this late. Got caught up in writing. 🙂
Have a great day.
New Cover and Blurb
This is the cover for the first of my July releases from Total e-Bound. Gypsies is the first book in The Beasor Chronicles, which is a sci-fi/alternate universes kind of story. lol It’s kind of hard to box into one genre. It’s not ready for pre-order yet, but when it is, I’ll let everyone know. Here’s the link to check it out. Also, I thought I’d share the blurb with everyone. 🙂 Oh, and it’ll be out July 9th.
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
Hope it sounds interesting to you…and I hope everyone has 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.
Another Monday…Another Hunk
Well, the wedding went off without a hitch, though we had a downpour earlier in the day, and I was worried it’d keep raining. But luck was with my friend, and she got to have her ceremony outside. Yay!
I hope everyone had a great Mother’s Day, whether you’re a mother or not.
I’m going to be bringing They Walk Among Us to a close on the blog this week. I will be adding more to the story afterward before I publish it. 🙂 I’ll be working on Tramps as well this week.
Have a great day, everyone.
Looking Forward to the Weekend
This weekend actually is a good one for me…aside from being Mother’s Day. I’m heading to a wedding tomorrow of a good friend, and it’s outside in a beautiful venue. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it doesn’t rain.
I’ll be writing as well, of course…lol. That doesn’t stop. 🙂
I hope you all have a great weekend. Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers out there.
Hunky Hump Day
I realize I post mostly the same things every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday…lol. Truly, writing during the day is pretty much what I do, except for going to the gym early in the morning, and lunch dates with friends once a week. 🙂
It’s probably pretty boring for everyone, but I don’t plan on stopping my posts. Occasionally I do have important news like books and things like that…lol.
We’re getting very close to the end of They Walk Among Us. I’ll give us all a glimpse of Opal before I end it on the blog. Then I plan on adding more to it before I sub it anywhere. 🙂
Hope you all have a great Wednesday.
Monday Monday
Yet another Monday. You would think I’d be used to them by now….lol. It’s all right. Looks to be a little dreary outside, so I think I’ll stay home and write all day today. Well, except for going to the gym, but that’s already been accomplished. I’m ready to start working on the blog story and Tramps. Yay! Hopefully both of them go well today. 🙂
Have a great Monday, everyone.
Weekend Fun
Hmmm….I’m hoping to be able to do some fun stuff this weekend, and not just writing. But I still have a lot of work to do on Tramps and other stories. 🙂
Not much to say. I hope you all have a great weekend. Stay dry and safe.
