A New Body
Hi everyone,
thanks for letting me take over this blog today to talk about my new book, My Boyfriend’s an Alien.
There are lots
of stories about aliens falling in love with humans out there and while there
are some that have, shall we say, unusual features about themselves, many of
them are essentially compatible with human beings when it comes to
relationships and sex. But who are we to
say that is the case?
I am someone who
does believe that there is other intelligent life out there besides here on
Earth. The universe if so huge I think it is rather arrogant to assume we’re
alone in it. But why do we assume that
aliens would look anything like ourselves?
For my new book
I decided that this would not be the case.
Zak is an alien who has never seen a human being before in his life. In
fact, most of his people haven’t either.
At least until the day he turns into one.
Imagine finding
yourself with a human body that is vastly different from your own.
Having extra
fingers, no tail for balance and no fur for warmth is bad enough for Zak. But
when his new body also comes with stronger emotions than he has ever
experienced before as well as appendages that seem to have a mind of their own,
well, that’s just a recipe for disaster – or for evil authors such as myself to
inflict torture on their characters.
Poor Zak is
really put through the ringer as he tries to figure out what is happening to
his new body. Evil though it is, I have
to admit I had a lot of fun making Zak suffer.
Blurb:
Zak, an
alien from the planet Trimmeron, is a member of a race of beings who transform
into other species during their years of puberty. It’s customary for the
youngsters to be fostered to the worlds native to their new forms, to study and
learn about the races who will play an important part in their lives.
When Zak
turns into a human, it comes as a surprise to everyone, for only one other
before him has ever done so. Nevertheless he is sent to Earth, a world he views
as primitive and barbaric. He arrives with a chip on his shoulder and attitude
to spare. He does not believe that anyone on Earth could have anything to teach
him.
When Zak
meets college student Sam he soon discovers he has a lot to learn, not only
about humans, but also about himself.
Trapped
on an unfamiliar world and in a strange body that seems to have a mind of its
own, Zak has no idea what is happening to him—only
that Sam seems to be the key to the strange afflictions he is suffering
from.
But can
an alien find love with a human being?
Excerpt:
The lights
were already down when they made their way to a pair of seats near the back of
the room. Sam sat down first and Zak took the seat near the aisle.
“You’ll
really enjoy this,” Sam whispered as the big screen in front of them played a
commercial for some kind of vehicle.
Zak whispered
back to Sam that he was sure he would.
As the film
played on the screen, Zak began to feel rather strange. There was something
happening down there and it was
totally out of his control. He shifted in his seat and tried to change his
position so it wasn’t as obvious.
Sam laughed
at something happening up on the big screen in front of them. The sound sent a
zing right through Zak’s body, culminating in an uncomfortable tightening of
his jeans. This had been happening to him quite a lot recently, but not to this
extent.
Zak tried to
concentrate on the movie, but it wasn’t holding his attention as it had before.
His awareness of Sam heightened with every minute.
“Are you
okay?” Sam whispered.
Zak groaned
as Sam’s warm breath against his ear added to the problem down below.
“Fine,” Zak
hissed.
Sam took him
at his word and dipped his hand into the big tub of popcorn. At the touch of
Sam’s fingers brushing against his own, hidden in the confectionary, Zak sank
even lower into his seat as he tried to figure out what was happening to him.
Sam put a
handful of popcorn into his mouth and started to chew. When Sam placed a hand
on Zak’s thigh the pain in his groin became unbearable and he shot up from his
seat. “I’ve got to go,” he said, causing several other people in the cinema to
shush at him.
He didn’t
wait for Sam to reply. He grabbed his jacket and bolted for the exit.
