How about a Few Extra Hours in a Day?

Time for a deep breath... Ahhh. Much better. I'm making progress on Two Pirates to Treasure, but a STOP sign popped up in front of me on Tuesday afternoon. EDITS!!! I got first edits for Two Fated for One and had to tackle those first. Mostly simple fixes. A read-through. All done :) Now back to writing!

BTW--Honeydews do NOT ripen after picking. They ferment and explode on your kitchen counter in the middle of the night :P Melonoma???

Entanglements...

The Sextet has submitted the fourth anthology to Siren this week--Entanglements. If you haven't guessed by the title, the stories involve some major emotional and physical ties! My contribution to this volume is String Theory. An imaginative physicist and her sexy coworker enjoy some after-hours experimentation :) I'll post the release date as soon as I know!

The fifth volume, Mistletoe and Menage, is coming right along too. I plan to finish my story today and send it off to the rest of the group for critique. Still thinking about the title...

Back to writing!

A Quick Update

I've set aside Two Pirates to Treasure for the past few days to work on my contribution to The Sextet's Christmas anthology, Mistletoe and Menage. I've added about 5K words to it, and The End is in sight!

Off to write! Deadlines!!!

Writing, Canning, and LOTS More Writing

Two Fated for One (Bewitching Desires 3) is on the SirenBookstrand calendar with a tentative release date of November 14th. Book 4 of the series, Two Pirates to Treasure, is well under way, and I'm making progress on my contribution to the next Sextet anthology, Mistletoe and Menage. AND Two Knights of Passion releases tomorrow!

In between, I've been trying to keep with my garden. Yesterday I chopped 30 pounds of tomatoes and a bunch of peppers, onions, and celery for bbq sauce. I now have enough to last two years! It joins the 30 pints of salsa I canned last month.

Off to write :)

Back to the Grindstone

After a fun weekend of kayaking, picnicking, fishing, and shopping, I'm trying to get back into the writing routine. Laundry is done. The cats and dog are home from boarding. Time to crank out my contribution to The Sextet's Christmas anthology, Mistletoe and Manage, and the fourth book in the Bewitching Desires series, Two Pirates to Treasure. September is going to be a busy writing month!
