Back online…. but still cleaning up
It happened again!! Unfortunately my websites were hacked last month and I’m just getting everything back online after switching web hosts. Some of the most recent content was lost in the changeover and I’ll be adding it back as time allows. If you haven’t been following me on Facebook, you may not know that I went back to college full time for a paralegal certificate in September 2015 and I put writing on hold until I finished. But now I am getting back to writing and being part of...
Camels, Horses and One Amazing Bull #mmromance @dreamspinners
A couple of years ago, Brandilyn Carpenter asked me for my favorite places in the world. I can’t find the list right now (that would have been a miracle!) but I do know that you’d find Jaisalmer, India in one of the top spots. I’ve been lucky enough to travel extensively around the world and even luckier to have been able to set stories in many of my favorite places so I can share the joys (and the occasional horror) of my own experiences. So I knew that eventually I’d set a story in one of the most...
Delectable NEW Release: “12 Courses” & Exclusive Recipe #mmromance @dreamspinners –
12 Courses, the sixth book in the Delectable Series is officially here! I can’t believe it. Six books. Actually more than that, when you count the missing scenes and freebies along the way. Working on this series has been nothing short of a joy for me, a real dream-come-true to combine my passions into one project. I love cooking. Not just cooking, but trying new things, but challenging myself in the kitchen. Except for a few cooking classes here and there, I’m mostly self-taught, through trial, error...
Should I bring back Wet...
For a couple of months I posted some NSFW pics of guys here. I got a lot of traffic. I didn’t get many comments or people stopping to chat about books, reading, or writing. I felt like the community here got broken up and I haven’t seen the same level of comments or...

Tomorrow I get up super-early so I can get out the door around 5 am for my flight to Atlanta for GayRomLit 2013. I’m so excited for this trip to see old friends and make new ones. I can’t believe how much my life has changed since the first GRL in New Orleans two years ago. I’ve met some...
#NaNoWriMo Story Planni...
As I mentioned in my last post, Why You Should Plan Your NaNo in Advance, I believe planning the key elements is a fool-proof way to develop a novel that is big enough to last 50,000 words, and offers you the best inspiration to make it to the end before November is over. Today I’ll...
How to Blurb (and How N...
As an editor I see a lot of blurbs come across my desk. As a reader I see even more. And as an author, I have written plenty of them myself. I don’t particularly like to write them, but I know how vital blurbs are to marketing your book. So what is a blurb and how do you...
Why You Should Plan you...
Over the years I’ve discovered the hard way that planning a story is the difference between a smooth writing experience and one where I’m pulling my hair, digging into a tub of Ben & Jerry’s, or deciding to watch re-runs of Law & Order instead of staring at a blank page....
What kind of romance do...
I’m debating between two different ideas for my next book. Dreamspinner is expecting both of them, and I can decide what order to send them. The horse racing story ended up a little darker than I expected, so I’m thinking it might be a nice change of pace to do something on...
