Bloody Hell & Then Some...

Well here is an update on what is happening in my life... You will be all happy to know that the flu is all cleared up and I am feeling a hell of a lot better...

I have 3K to write on On the 12th Day - which I have decided to rename I am just not sure what I will call it yet... Any Suggestions? It is a paranormal Xmas he is a on the spot blurb:

The Moon-runner pack is hosting this years Mating Contract Ritual (big party where numerous pack come and vie for a mate - very rare do you ever find you heart-mate).

Liam Kantry wants to be with the man he has loved nearly his whole entire life - yet rumours and innuendos have left Liam named as the pack slut - not something Liam has ever disputed - so what if it wasn't true.

Carlos Bruenelli is waiting for his heart-mate; he is one of those who believe they really do exist the alpha-mate is proof of this. In his heart he wants it to be his best friend even if he is the town slut. 

As Christmas draws near they have to work their way through not only their own but the whole packs ideas on what a heart-mate should be.

As you can tell the blurb still needs some work done to it.

Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes.

As you can see I have changed my blog yet again all the pictures on my wall that are not my cover or promoting someone or something else are pictures I have bought from the wonderful Dan Skinner and they are all Characters out of The Lines of Marsden. I just want you all to know I own the pictures I use though the ones I place in my posts I borrow from elsewhere and from now on I will try and let you know exactly where I borrow them from or who they are at least. I can't promise I will always have the answer for you. 

Why the picture's of The Lines of Marsden character's you may ask. Well the answer is simple: The Lines of Marsden is my baby, this is the story that got me through some of the toughest times in my life. Some of the character pictures are of future characters you are yet to meet and fall in love with.

On that note I will away as I have way too much writing to catch up on. Talk to you all soon to fill you in on what's happening or to post a new blog story episode.

It's Hard To Say Goodbye To Those We Love.

In recent days I have been informed of three deaths in my life, one of a relative, and one of a friend - or more someone I was beginning to see as a friend, and one taken at such an early age. I have no words so instead I will play some songs for them both and those they left behind.

Reviews: Words Hurt.

Today, I broke my own rule and I went and read some of my reviews. There were some really nice ones, and then there were some not so nice ones. I'm a big believer in it's okay to have your own personal opinion on whether or not you like my books; or anyone else's for that matter. But I'm also a big believer in if you truly don't have anything nice to say than keep it to yourself and let everyone else decide for themselves.

I am not naive enough to believe that my work is going to appeal to everyone, but as long as one person likes it then that's okay by me. It gives me the incentive to write something else.

No matter what; I'm going to keep writing. The words of bad reviews may hurt for a moment or two, but in the end I'll suck it up and keep going. Because the next one may be the one you do like, and even if it isn't, then I'm still going to write, because someone out there will like what I have done and will be happy to read more.

Back On Track!

I think I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel with this damn flu-bug. I still have the annoying pain in the arse cough, but hey I can live with that. Today I am going to try and catch up on some writing... I wrote 4 K about four days ago and I am dreading re-reading it in case I went off on some weird arse tangent and left what I was meant to be writing about (Christmas: On the12th Day) but that means I an over halfway on that story fingers crossed it makes sense (codeine based pain killers, flu medicine and writing may not work well together).

So I have heaps of writing I need to catch up on if I have a hope in hell of making all my deadlines on time. This is me and we all know I work fast under the crunch... just hope what I write is worth reading - LOL. But I am medication free and my brain is somewhat working again. It is raining here today so what a better atmosphere to write in.

Wish me luck.

Feeling Like Crap!

I am still feeling like crap; because now I have bad cold on top of everything else. How did I get a cold? who would know; as I hardly ever leave the house. Though, it has been raining here of late and it is winter so maybe that is the why of it all. So when I'm not trying to catch up on my writing; I am reading works by other authors. At the moment I am alternating between J.R.Ward & Lynn Hagen with a little bit of Stormy Glenn thrown in. I will check in tomorrow, and hopefully be well enough to catch up on my blog stories... until then, I am off to take some Panadol and find yet another box of tissues... Talk to you soon.

In Case You're Interested...

Okay, it's like this... I have lost the plot on Wind Walkers - I seriously have no idea where I was going with that story. So I am thinking of bringing it to a close and starting on the next chapter Beneath The Rising Tide: Featuring Kai, ? & ? I will have to look up the other two characters names. I have it written down somewhere. (All I know for certain is the note is written on the back of a spiral bound note pad and it is in the office somewhere).

While swapping over two of my bedrooms at home I finally found the notes on The Diamond Rose. Emily had them sitting on her bedside table and here she was blaming me for losing them - HA!

I have updated all my Word Widgets on the blog face so you can all see how much I have done or not done as the case may be thought I am thinking of giving the whole thing a face lift - SHOULD I KEEP THE PICTURES OR SHOULD THEY GO?

My stitches are still in and annoying the hell out of me, but what else is new. Other than that I am basically just trying to catch up on the writing I have fallen behind on, if that makes sense.

Everyday I have new plot bunnies jumping into my head, and I have Vlad filing them for use at further date when I actually have time to think about writing something new.  Everyone tells me to focus on the ones I am doing and at least get them done. So Yeah it is the twelve on my to do list for now I am concentrating on - LOL.

This is for Z Allora in case she missed it on Facebook.

Ain't he pretty, even with the short hair.
