RIP Carrie Fisher

I'll be honest: I don't like rushing. I've always hated having to get a story done every week instead of taking my time to make it something I'm proud of. That's why I gave up on deadlines this year and decided to take my time with my stories.

Happy birthday Bronxie!  My friend who is such a great help to me, especially here!

It looks like I’m actually going to finish my Christmas story “Comfort and Joy” before Christmas. Of course, I originally planned to have it finished before LAST Christmas, but you know...

As much as it pains me to ask this, if you’ve purchased books from Torquere Press, please don’t. They’ve stopped paying authors, editors, and cover artists. While we’re all trying to get our rights reverted back to us, our books are still listed for sale on Amazon, Torquere, Smashwords, Barnes & Noble, Google Play Books, and All Romance, to name a few. Check before you buy: if the publisher is Torquere, please don’t buy. We won’t get paid.

There is no mead in the mead shop. Not a single drop. Not until after Christmas, anyway. In desperation, I walked into the ASDA earlier to ask if they sold it. They’d obviously never heard the word before in their lives, and insisted on pronouncing it as: “Meeeeeed…?” That is what I call a wasted youth, and *waggles finger* it’s a sign of just what has gone wrong with this country since the time of King Arthur.

Let’s make Britain great again. Let’s make mead! We could employ at least… ten people! And thousands and thousands of bees. That will give the bees work to do, and stop them from dying all over the place from worklessness. We have lots of bees, all doing nothing for most of the year. Hiding in their homes with the curtains drawn while the rest of us go out to work in the morning.

We all know China is making cheap mead on the side, flooding the market with it. That was a fantastic day… but anyway! We will install a giant net over the UK, keeping our bees safe, and foreign bees out!

Tip! To make this parody for yourself, mix equal parts Donald Trump and Iain Duncan Smith. Full recipe details can be found on any mainstream news outlet.

Oh, but sadly I wasn't kidding about the mead

Unpopular opinion: I hate A Christmas Story; I hate the characters, I hate the story and I hate that infamous line "You'll shoot your eye out." -.-

I've asked myself this a lot when writing: does the length of a chapter matter?

So, just signed a contract for Loving Sarajevo! I’m pretty excited and really looking forward to the end of 2016 because 2017 is going to be awesome. The tentative release date for Falling for Him is April 2, mark your calendars!

I’ve been trying to write Elrond/Celebrian all day, despite frequent interruptions, and I have to say, while she is a dreadful tease, he can really tie her in knots with words when he puts his mind to it… Surprised me when I started noticing it, but then I suppose it makes sense, him being such a diplomat and all.

Yes, this means I am writing heterosexual romance… hold the press.

It also means I have broken into your box and eaten your chocolates, CL… I was writing het, I was desperate. I will get you some more

Sigh, I hate it when the desktop’s water pump starts leaking…..

Happy birthday to our very own DemonGoddess061!  Huzzah!!     

I have like a million things to post, but I am lazy. Also, one of my fillings fell out. What is *wrong* with today?

Happy Halloween!!!!!!! … !!!

And my halloween fic has been finished!  Now,  the usual week for it to age properly, and I’ll be posting it next weekend. 

Got 2 new kittens last night; a boy and a girl. Skittish but very cute best describes them

So I guess my lucky streak continues… I just got offered a contract to publish Falling for Him!!! Off to celebrate with a bottle of wine! 

Wondering if we’re going to have a Halloween round robin this year… it was fun last year.
