Dark Chocolate and Raspberries

Greetings Loved Ones,

Things are rolling along for Dark Chocolate and Raspberries this last week. I received my edits and as always it's a love/hate kind of thing. As an author, you love your stories and want to see them become the best that they can be, yet it is always difficult when your editor and you may not have the same vision for the story. The editor's vision of the work may not be the same as you intended originally. That doesn't make their vision wrong or your vision wrong, just different. It's a work in progress and sometimes it pulls a bit a the heartstrings. Like anything though, your editor is doing their best to make your story the best it can become and you have to work together to accomplish that.

I also received the list of possible models for my cover. Basically it's going on a man hunt, for the right look for the guys on the cover of Dark Chocolate and Raspberries. Let me tell you, that was no chore at all... YUMMY!!!  That was an absolute blast! What can be better than looking through pictures of hot men deciding which best represent your characters. Oh Baby!

Now I need to get back to work and get the edits done ... LOL...  I've said it before and I'll say it again, editing is not my favorite part of the job.

Wishing you Love and Butterflies,

Work in Progress

Greetings Loved Ones,

I have fabulous news, my paranormal m/m romance, Adel's Purr has been accepted by Silver Publishing. This will be the third title for me and the second book scheduled for release in 2011. It's shaping up to be a very busy new year and I'm loving every minute of it.

Adel's Purr is a romance between Adel, a gargoyle, and Evan, a handsome young man with the powers of an earth elemental. It is set in the not so far future, after a biological war. I won't go into great details but this is the first book in a series that I am hoping will be enjoyed. I know I'm having a lot of fun working on it and now that it has been accepted the real work begins. Yes, I'm again talking about the author's nemesis... editing. LOL...

I'm also participating in the Free Fiction blog being sponsored by Silver Publishing called Silver Flash. A number of authors from Silver Publishing will be offering Free Flash Fiction on Wednesdays under the Cover Badge - Silver Flash. My first contribution to the Silver Flash will be 02/16/2011. So watch for it and if you are interested in seeing what is being offered, check out the Silver Flash authors contributing this week by clicking on the link to their blogs. I hope you enjoy them, I know I am!

Wishing you Love and Butterflies,
