Getting There-

Today I am trying to get back into my writing... I have had a couple of days off due to my migraine and now I am once again running behind and quickly running out of time to get everything done. I am trying to at least reach 10 K on my warrior vamps - Sons of Evenmore: The Crimson Grimoire. I have come to a standstill on my NaNoWriMo story - Taking Chances: Lie to Me.

Why is it when you have so much to get done - everything else seems to want to jump into your path and slow you down? I woke up this morning with the greatest urge to change my blog - I am trying hard to wait until at least after November has ended but it is like an itch I just can't seem to scratch.

On that note I will away and get some more done in my writing for today so that I can at least try and catch up so that I make my deadlines.

PS: I heard from a little bird Embry Carlysle is on the tail end of her Warrior Vamps story (I will tell you the name of it after she has been accepted) - I heard it was almost ready to be sent to the beta reader. I am so happy for her and can't wait to see her name attached to a MLR cover let's all keep our crossables crossed for her submission to be accepted.

Ugh!!! & December Update.

My head feels like it is ready to explode. I have had a full on migraine for two days and today even though I don't feel as bad - my head is still pounding out and incessant rhythm that makes me want to hide under the blankets in a very dark room and growl at anyone who comes near me - Why is it when you have a headache, every one feels the need to talk to you - loudly... very loudly. Everything is so damn bright. So I am going to shut down and try and ride this thing out.

I must say now it isn't looking good to me finishing my NaNoWriMo but I am still going to give it a good go and try and get most of it completed - I am mainly working on my Warrior Vamps - Sons of Evenmore: The Crimson Grimiore and trying to get it done (luckily my awesome editor: Kimberly Brandt has given me the extension for it).

The In-Betweens.

In between doing all the writing that I have to get done during November I'm trying to work out what to blog for the month of December - and I've decided that I'm going to be blogging a month of Christmas and Hanukkah stories... I don't mind if they're years old or they're brand new - if you want to send me an excerpt of a story than I'll happily blog it. Hell, I don't even care if its MM or FF or MF or a multitude of other combinations. 

Email me if you have something I can share.

Can You Believe...

Can you believe how fast this year is flying by? It only feels like yesterday I celebrated Christmas and  now it is only 48 days away... I am busy trying to get my 2012 commitments finished because next year I have specific things I want to get done and out in 2013. But I will tell you what they are on Jan 1st.

My poor cat Droogie has had a woeful year as well - his latest incident happened when I was at GRL. A neighbours dog bit him on the head and no one even realised - when I got home it was the first thing I saw as half his face was swollen... Two weeks later he is almost back to normal and following me around in case I leave again.

Em is back at work and working hard - she has been working late nearly every day to help get some drilling done for her dad. Don't ask me because I don't know - If I act like I'm interested then I would probably have to help, (there's a method to my madness).

Exciting news is in about eight days Embry Carlysle is going to submit her first story (Warrior Vamps) for publication to MLRPress so I have all my crossables crossed for her. I know she is a tad nervous so can you all keep your fingers crossed as well.

This year I have met so many interesting people for the first time - some I have know over the net some not. And some people have given me as well as many other people plot bunnies (yes Jared I'm talking about you). next year I hope my friends list grows because there are so many interesting people I have still yet to meet.

Just Subbed...

Just a quick note - I just subbed my Australia Day story: Bush Bashin' to MLRPress. I am damn tired I can tell you as I wrote about 6K all up yesterday on all my different projects. I have to write a blurb for AD:BB and I don't want to as I suck at blurbs... but it has to be done and as my mum says, "Suck it up, Princess, and get the job done."

Now I can concentrate on the NaNoWriMo and the Warrior Vamps - Come on December - LOL. Once November is passed I won't be quite so hectic.

A Moon-Runner Christmas

BLURB:


Two Lives – One Destiny. When fate decides two people belong together, nothing can stand in its way. Liam Kantry and Carlo Bruenelli find themselves caught up in the madness of Christmas as they discover the meaning of being true heart-mates.

Liam Kantry wants to be with the man he has loved his whole life, yet incessant rumours and innuendos have labelled him the pack whore –– a point he never disputed.

Carlo Bruenelli is waiting for his heart-mate; he is one of those who believe they really do exist. In his heart he wants it to be his best friend, only Liam doesn’t believe in heart-mates. What will it take to change Liam’s mind?

Christmas is drawing near, and between snowball fights and the contract ceremony. Liam and Carlo find themselves caught in the excitement and obsessing over what their future holds.

Are the true heart-mates will they forge a successful future for themselves or destroy two families?
