And She Missess! Kyllleeeee!!!! 2008-01-07 08:59:47 Ugh. I did not get any writing done. Not. One. Word. Actually, I take that back. I did manage to write about 1k which was Chapter Five of Dead by Dawn. But other than that hastily scribbled chapter, I didn’t write a bit last week. Not even over the weekend. Grrr…
Instead, I installed four wordpress websites I designed. Check ‘em out:
www.vonnaharper.com
www.sheliago.powweb.com (Temp site, to be moved to her regular site today)
www.jannaleehayes.com
www.essencefantasies.info
Whew! Miss Vonna’s was by far the hardest. I don’t know where the woman finds the time to write so much! Wow!
Oh! I also did my good friend (and future writing partner) Shara’s site. She’s still got some futzing to do with content, but it’s live! www.shara-cooper.com Ain’t it purty?Â
Hmmm…. Other news…. The winners of the Blast in the New scavenger hunt will be posted/emailed today. Woo Hoo! I’ve got ano
FFF - Dead by Dawn Chapter Five 2008-01-04 05:43:23 Hi All!
I’m cheating…Â I’m giving you chapter five of Dead by Dawn since I had to write it anyway.Â
————————–
Between one heartbeat and then next, he enveloped her in his arms and called to the darkness. It wrapped around their entwined bodies, shielding them from the assailants while pulling them into another realm. His realm.Â
Shadow dwellers, the souls of those dispatched by Shadow Demons, swirled around them as he navigated the midnight black world of the shadows. He pulled her with him, fending off the hungry shadows, looking for a new body to inhabit. There was a reason humans feared the dark, the shadowy corners on a midnight street. Nothing a corporeal being could do would ever compare to the damage a hungry bodiless soul could impart on a human. Nothing.
Her curves molded to him as they traveled and her pulled her tighter against his chest. He could tell himself he wanted her close to p
It’s a GOAL! Beckhammmmmm!!!! 2008-01-03 07:04:15 *snort* That’s a bit of insider humor with Mr. Kyle. He likes to play his soccer x-box game while I write and generally keeps the TV low, but the only things I truly do hear from the room are: It’s a GOAL!!!! and then: Beckham!!!!!!!Â
LOLÂ Okay, so it doesn’t take much to amuse me, but when I thought about writing a “Goals for 2008″ post, I immediately thought of hubby playing the xbox.Â
On to my goals for this year:
-Publish no less than eight works. I mean, that will give me like four whole months off, right?
I’ve gotten started on this one already with today’s release, Yeti! Were?, from Changeling Press. I’ve also got the following in the can and ready to roll:Â
Rookery Cove: Nipped from Changeling Press (Feb 2008)
Del Fantasma: Silk Panties from Aspen Mountain Press (Feb 2008)
Love Defined from Cobblestone Press (No clue as to release date)
Battered Not Broken from Liquid Silver Books (April 2008, maybe?)

Blah! OR I need to get to writing 2008-01-02 09:56:14 So, December… Ah, I had plans for December. I was going to finish Tie Me to the Bedpost AND my shortie for the Going Down? Anthology. Alas, I did neither. I did, however, manage to write the first three chapters of Fiery Ember and submit those to Resplendence Publishing for consideration. Now, those of you authors that are fussing at me for submitting something that wasn’t finished… hush. They knew it wasn’t done. I sent a query first and they asked for the first three when they were done. Hopefully, by the time they get around to reading the first three, I’ll have the rest done.Â
My goal this week? Write one chapter per night between now and Sunday. That’s 10k between now and then. It’s doable. With luck, I’ll finish one of the three stories and then some. *sigh* THEN I’m going to start work on Man-grove, my next BBW alien shifter story for Changeling. Now, that is one story I can’t wait to writ
Free Hosting & A Poll! 2007-12-24 16:06:26 Hi All!
Well, some of you may have been aware of my initial project/offering to the romance community, literalseduction.com. While I believe this project to be a success, I admit that it drained on my time. So, I went searching for a way to automate the process, so that I don’t have to be as intimately involved with setting authors up for space. Enter, literalseduction.net. Now, authors can sign-up and be automatically granted access to their host space and setting up their website. There’s a control panel, add-on domains, subdomains, instant installation of many popular scripts (wordpress included) and much more. All for free. There will be a small text link type ad at the bottom of each page simply proclaiming that the site is hosted by literalseduction.net and partnered with my design co, LS Designs.net. That’s it!
So, literalseduction.net is my first offering, but I’m planning another free host site and I need your help:

Deab by Dawn - Chapter Four 2007-12-21 08:22:37 Woot! Tuesday wrote chapter four this week and it’s wicked cool!
***
Her heart pounded with every step she took. Ba boom. Ba boom. Ba boom. Each step echoed through her mind as Isis ran for her life. Sweat coated her flesh and slid down her skin in thin rivulets of water. It wasn’t until she was forced to run through the club that Isis realized just how large In Darkness was.
Each foot she took seemed to take an eon. She moved to the right, sliding past an arguing couple.
Two vampires. The man would rather be hunting. The female was determined to spend the night dancing.
Isis envied her as she glided through an open doorway which lead to a smaller, more private dance floor.
The door had barely closed behind her when she heard his voice. She hadn’t run far enough, fast enough.
“Why do you run when you know you’ll be caught?” His voice was dark, deep, and painfully seductive.
Isis pushed aside the need she felt as she listened to the intoxicating ton
Howdy Partner? 2007-12-18 09:11:03 So, I’ve got this idea…. It’s a yummy idea, really. With werewolves and claimings and kidnappings… oh my! The thing is, I’m wondering if maybe having a writing partner for this one might be a good idea. You see, I anticipate this baby being novel length. I’ve never done novel length and I’m sceart. Weird, right? I’ve been doing lots of short stuff, but I’m thinking that maybe holding hands with a writing partner on this one might be a good idea. It means I’ll only have to write half of the 60k, which is my normal length anyway. Hmm….Â
So, any readers out there that are writers and lurv BBW heroines and werewolves? How about it? ;)Â
Your first qualification is that your name must sound good with mine! Or, we can come up with a new one! LOL

Double Fisting December! 2007-12-17 11:42:27 Yep, I’m pulling double this month. I’ve got two short stories that I’m determined to finish before 1/1/08. One is What Goes Up, a contemporary domme-ish elevator shag story and the other is the follow up to Silk Panties titled Tie Me to the Bedpost. Both are uber hawt for their own reasons. Like, smokin. What Goes Up is planned for an entire anthology of ‘vator stories. And we’ve got some kick azz authors involved, let me tell ya. No pub as of yet, but I believe queries are going out soon. Yay!
Tie Me to the Bedpost… Ah…. A m/m/f menage with a boy butt virgin. *sigh* I’m just getting to the buttsecks, but I’ve placed the story aside until I can spend hours focused on the buttsecks. No rushing and incomplete descriptions, no sirree….
Otherwise, my life is tame this holiday season. I’ve got one book due out on the first of the new year, but otherwise, my life is plodding along. Mr. Celia j Read more:Fisting

FFF - Dead by Dawn Chapter Three 2007-12-06 22:14:06 Woot! Here’s chapter three of Dead by Dawn. I honestly think Tuesday is going to kick my butt. I make things up and change them without consulting her and when she reads this post, it’ll be the first time she’s read this chapter. Talk about living on the edge! Anyway… enjoy!

Vincent melded with the shadows, surrounding himself in their dark embrace as he waited. The demons who called the dark their home burrowed beneath his skin, seeping through his very pores, in search of his soul. They wouldn’t find it. He’d determined long ago that whispers of souls were myth told to human children.
Seconds ticked by and he remained ignored by Sola. He wasn’t surprised. They’d danced this same waltz many times before. She would tell those who begged her for assistance what exactly what was in store for them and then… he would go to work. The dirty task always fell to his shoulders.

Yep. Only… this is good… It’s open to everyone. It’s a place to share ideas, answer questions, network and more. And all for free. It’s open to published and unpublished writers alike. They don’t discriminate or reject an author because they haven’t had anyone actually contract their book. Epubbed? Print pubbed? Doesn’t matter. An author, is an author. Period. Just because an editor hasn’t seen how wonderful your writing is, doesn’t make you any less of an author.

FFF - Waiting #3 2007-11-30 04:35:34 A warm palm came to rest at the back of my neck for a moment before he slid his fingers down my spine. Those work-rough fingertips left goosebumps in their wake as the callused skin skimmed my back. I tried to supress my shiver of excitement, but failed. I didn’t want him to see my reaction to him. Knowledge is power and that was knowledge I didn’t want him to have.
“Too bad, sugar.” He whispered against my ear. I loved that he could read my mind. I’d given him permission before our meeting to delve into the depths of my thoughts.
I hadn’t taken my eyes from the mirror behind the bar. It had granted me the ability to view my surroundings without craning my neck, but now, even though I felt his touch and reveled in his hot breath fanning my neck… it revealed nothing.
My lover for the evening, the man caressing the crease at the top of my ass and nipping my neck with infinite care… he didn’t cast a reflection.

I Should Stop 2007-11-27 07:05:01 I really should stop emailing people. Like, seriously. I sent an email to M (Changeling Power That Be) about an idea for a series of Hot Flashes, yada, yada. She said thanks, but we’ve got some plans in the works, but go ahead with the idea for yourself if you want! <-Note the exclamation point.
And then, “Shoot for over 8k and you’ll get a regular pub slot…” <- Note the teasing ellipse.
So, what have I now added to my already full plate? A new shortie titled Clover. *sigh* It just wouldn’t go away and he’s just so cute.
Chrissie, if you’re reading this, the proposal is on its way. It’s all M’s fault.

Sequels 2007-11-25 22:16:57 Okay, so I have one series: Office of Kink and Karma. I dig it. The series doesn’t have a recurring character beyond Eric and the secondaries getting their own books.
How do ya’ll (readers/writers/whomever) feel about sequels involving the same characters? I’m thinking, super duper hard, on making the second book in Jaguar Pride about Paige and Vincent again. This one would be titled To Have and To Shift and would pick up where Wicked Shift left off. Maybe more exploration of Stephen and Lukas’s relationship while seeing how Paige and Vincent fair in the were world.
What say you?

Sometimes it takes others… 2007-11-25 14:15:30 To see what I’m missing.
I’ve been in a funk over my current WIP. Nipped is going along and for some reason I’ve had trouble writing the darned story. I packaged it up and shipped it off to Dawn Montgomery for a quick read since we were chatting about other things. One of my comments was “I think the last chapter may be a bit mundane. Not sure if there’s enough going on.” Yada yada.
Dawn read the few chapters I had finished and her response was “You threw her in the ocean!” Yeah, I threw my obsessively clean, neat-freak character in the ocean. That is pretty funny. *snort*
Then I realized that maybe it takes someone elses opinion to make a writer see that what they’ve got, really is good.

FFF - Wating #2 2007-11-23 10:00:23 She’s there. Just like I told her to be. From the four inch heels to the skin tight teal satin dress, she looks exactly as I imagined. She had hesitated at my order. I remember the discussion clearly. She felt her curves, those luscious curves I can’t wait to trace with my tongue, were too abundant to wear such a tight fitting dress. I instructed her otherwise.
And there she sits.
Watching.
Waiting.
Wondering.
Hoping.
Praying.
She’d expressed her concern over becoming another statistic. Meeting a man in a strange place… But she still came, as I soon would.
Just being in this place makes my cock hard. Not because of the less-than-stellar décor, but because of what I’m here to do… to her. I adjust my dick, hard and aching against my leg. It lengthens further beneath my palm and I know I’m going to embarrass myself as I walk across the room. Then again, why should I be embarrassed?

I’m a big ham lover and not so much with the turkey, so you’ll have to settle for my ham recipe. Maybe The Mom will stop by and comment on what the best turkey recipe is a little later.

3. Eat Ham.
See how easy that was? Now you know how to make THE perfect Holiday Ham! Don’t tell me I never shared my trade secrets with ya.

Office of Kink and Karma: Touch Me
4 Red (Scorching) Tattoos from Megan @ Erotic-Escapades.com
In a world where racial prejudice goes beyond color or creed and becomes more about what you can or can’t do with your
mind. The ability of one man to work around social boundaries to bring soul mates together is an extraordinary ability.
That makes Touch Me, the first book in The Office of Kink and Karma series, a special book that will motivate us to judge each person on their own merits. Josh is incredibly strong psychically, and his unwillingness to compromise his feelings for Emily make him extremely loveable. Emily is a strong woman ready to go to bat for those who can’t or won’t stand up for themselves, making her an inspiration to others. With every touch ratcheting up Emily’s libido, the heat between the pair is scorching even if the action is practically in slow motion at times.
With such an excellent start I c

“Is it going to hurt?” He whimpered.
“Not too badly. Besides, I’ll kiss it and make it better.”
That wasn’t all she’d be kissing, but he’d never sit still through the procedure if she told him.
Isis fired up the Thermal Cautery Unit placed the mask over her mouth. Minutes later, she placed the finishing touches on her artwork. Three perfect letters forever branded on her boy’s hip.
She pressed delicate kisses on his new mark. Focusing her attention on her favorite part of his body, she licked a path from root to tip.
He groaned aloud.
“Did that hurt?”
