Updates Galore ( Okay, so there's only Four)

Well this week I have been keeping very busy... I have completed two lots of edits on By The Way - the free short story for Oz mm Meet in Sydney this October. I wasn't feeling this story all the way through I started it three times and had a name change and now it is finally done and the wonderful Alison T is working her editing magic.

I will be trying to finish the long hand on The Lines of Marsden: Living in Shadows... I have already gotten the spiral binder book to start straight on #3: You Make Me Die In Pieces. I will continue on in this fashion as it seems to be working for me especially for this series.

I have a new editor for Silver Publishing, someone named Jamie, and I am looking forward to working with her. This is for Windblown Kisses: My Knight In Tarnished Armour... This book is very close to my heart as it is one of the first MM books I began writing. I put it aside to do the first TLOM book and now it is finally going to see the light of day and I hope at least a few people enjoy Ray and Viv's tale as much as I did while writing it. I have already started on #2: His Damsel in Disgrace and I think I should WARN everyone ahead of schedule that #2 is a HFN the main couple they don't end up staying together but each person does get the HEA eventually in future books.

I should also have the next round of edits from Steve L over at MLRPress next week for Experimentals: Blessed With A Curse... I can't wait to see this one out for you all to see. I really like this storyline and can't wait to see what happens next.

Em's Turn.

After having dental surgery yesterday

Em wanted to play some songs 

So here they are

Enjoy!

What's The Goss?

Okay, I was looking at picture on Face Book yesterday morning, and found some that immediately had me searching out more... As In The Shadow Of The Dragon... pushed it's way to the forefront of my mind.... so I thought I would share what captured my interest.

I'm not sure exactly what the story is about yet, but it's slowly formulating, and one day Vlad will just tell me to get cracking.

Even though some of these pictures are obviously female - I just want to assure you they aren't inside my mind.

Whatever the story turns out to be, you can rest assured that there will be character who look like these four. Below I will add some scenery pictures which also caught my eye.

Unexpected Twists In The Story...

I was writing in long hand last night, and this version of The Lines Of  Marsden: Living In Shadows, has taken a twist that I never expected - Doyle has gone missing, and Michael is about to lose it big time to get him back even if that means tearing apart the whole of Great Britain to do so - I pity the dumbarses that took him as Michael wrath has got everyone running scared.

With the help of Gabrial R I have found some awesome places which actually have Marsden in the name so I'm going to work a few of them into the story in future books. 

I have to admit... Living In Shadows, has been a long time in coming - even though I've had the story written for over a year  - it just didn't feel right to me, and hence the re write and now this direction seems to be in a better place... I took the advice from the editor Kimberly B on the first TLOM book and made it a bit more gutsier.

Fingers crossed you all think so as well, and  you all like where the story is headed... On that note I must away as I have some more writing to do.

I Signed A New Contract.

I signed the contract on Windblown Kisses: My Knight In Tarnished Armour today and it took me three goes to fill in the cover art request - because someone who I will not mention who has a name that sounds a hell of a lot like mine - kept deleting it instead of saving it. Now I remember how much I suck at the Silver editing process... but I will get better as the days and edits go along.

Renovation Updates!!!

<= This is how I am feeling today. Well,  I'll start off by saying that over the weekend we painted and built some shelves for the library. - which I have already filled with books  - Again I say I don't think my hubs realises just how many print books I own (been collecting them for over twenty years). So far I have only transferred about a third of my books and have run out of room he is building me more shelves next weekend when he gets home.

On the plus side I can finally see my desktop again in the next couple of days I hope to have it completely cleaned off and set up so that it suits both Em and myself. Em has told me I'm not allowed to clutter up her side with all my research clutter and book notes... I don't do that - a lot... So instead I told the hubs to build himself a desk out in his shed because I'm taking over his spot as well. But I have to say all the spare desk space on Em's end is calling to me I don't think she'll notice if I place about twenty spiral note books in her area... LOL.

PS: I have two days to get everything back into the office that I have spread out all over the kitchen and dining room. My mum get back from her month away on Wednesday, and I want to have the house tidy. Well that, and the hubs threatened to throw it all out if I didn't move it... and considering most of it is story ideas and notes - It would be better if I just moved it.

I Found It!!!

I found my missing CD - Placebo: Without you I'm Nothing. It was hidden among my numerous amount of David Bowie CDs... I was jumping round like a loon, and had both Em and the hubs looking at me like I had lost my ever living fricken mind.

We  are doing more renovations this weekend - I can tell you I will be fricken ecstatic when the renovations are over and done with.

Also I just passed 75K in The Lines of Marsden: Living In Shadows re write. I'm enjoying the knew track it has taken.
