The wind has gone out of my sails :( It's not really writers block because I have the story for Witch and Dragon completed in my mind, just feeling a bit... I don't know. Like I need a little vacation. I'm sure that if I had an entire week of no interruptions I'd be able to get inspired again and finish the whole book in a matter of days. But I gotta work, plus in the evening I gotta go pick up my other half at work and then, of course, there are the phone calls just when you start on the exciting parts of the book with the usual "hey, how are you doing? Why haven't you called?". And then I'm kept on the phone for hours. By the time I hang up I just want to sleep. Writing is hard. No wonder some writers become crabby hermits.

Gotta LOVE this darn phone and my new weebly phone app. ;)
I've been busy (as always). Uploaded a new version of FALLEN ANGEL, longer and more erotic and I'm working on the fourth book of the series that originally was called Golden Angel, but I might change it to The Witch and the Dragon. Haven't decided yet. I've also started sketching again, and did a really beautiful pic of Davariel. Weird, nut every time I look at that drawing I can't keep from staring into his amazing eyes... And that mouth...mmmmm! Darn, I'm sick for getting all hot and bothered with that picture-oh well. Later, when I'm feeling inspired again, I'll work on another character. Remi'll be fun to try!!! I uploaded FALLEN ANGEL to literotica and based on the feedback I got there, I decided to revise FALEN ANGEL and put back in the hot and reacey scenes I had deleted in the first edition. It's available on amazon.com and also Kindle edtion. Don't miss out on Dava's hottness!!!
Got VERY sidetracked, but now I'm working furiously to finish the first draft of Golden Angel. I'm going to shoot for one book a year instead of two. I was just re-reading FALLEN ANGEL and realized that I rushed the ending and cut out too many of the HOT scenes. I uploaded the first four chapters on a website called Literotica and FALLEN ANGEL has had so far over 10,000 reads and still climbing. Some of the readers on that site got mad because I never uplaoded the rest of the story, so I decided to give them the rest. Also, I'm turning FALLEN ANGEL (the first edition) into a free kindle read, so if you haven't been angel-struck yet. now the time. When I finish the series, I bringing out the extended version of FALLEN ANGEL which will include the grand finale of the series... the final battle of Davariel, Devon, Jazriel, and Ozzy against Lucier.
Well back in the saddle for the next thrilling ride. I was having a hard time developing Zachariel, Zak, because from the beginning of the series he was cast as a sweetheart. He's huge, like Conan the barbarian, an is into kink. I knew from the get-go that he was a Dom. I did two submissive heroes and wanted to try my hand at a dominant male, so I did a little research online and realized that BDSM isn't what I thought it is. It's not about some overbearing male playing at being a god, rather about a man with a dominant sexual nature that uses his dominance to pleasure his female...or slave. Dom's are very much in tune with their sub, they watch expressions, body language, everything to make sure their submissive is feeling the ultimate pleasure...pleasure that is their own as well.
Zak comes from a wealthy background, but was banished by his father because of his powers. Zak overwhelms himself in liquor and women, indulging in decadent orgies to drown out his sorrow and loneliness. He figures if he loses himself in twenty females at a time, there's no space or chance he'd lose his heart to one of them...although he longs... Alluna has been trapped in a tower almost since birth. Always frightened and lonely, she longs for protection and affection. The woman she thinks is her mother warns her about how evil men are, how they will hurt her if she ever leaves the tower. But when Alluna sees Zak for the first time, she realizes how pleasurable that hurt can be. The story is filled with intrigue and twists. Alluna's 'mother' is an evil witch, gathering Davariel's lost disciples in hopes of unlocking the anti-Davariel from, Davariel's evil opposite from beyond the realm of mirrors, Leivarad. Remuel, Zakreel, and even Rowie's father Drakken make a comeback in this tale that will have you shivering under your covers at night. I'm back... After almost a year, I'm finally getting my act together. 2010 was kind of mad. Lot's of drama at home, little time to focus on my writing, but I finally got DARK PRINCE out in November and the third book in the ALPHA ANGELS SAGA, ANGEL OF RETRIBUTION out last week. I'll start with the rewrites and edits of GOLDEN ANGEL, the forth instalment of AA, after my visiting relatives leave at the end of this week. Already started making some notes. The covers to these books are really beautiful and had me redoing FALLEN ANGEL with it's own unique cover. So here they are... my babies for your enjoyment... Now back to the drawing-board. Now I've got to finish editing DARK PRINCE. It's going pretty good so far. I had stopped all editing while I got FALLEN ANGEL out on the market. I'm going to try to get each book out at three month intervals. Hopefully I'll be able to keep up this schedule except for the last book of the series, SETHALIEL which is only half way written through the first draft. I've got a ton of other books just sitting around getting dust, that I've started but not finished. Let's see what happens.
Sample synopsis of my other WIP's: *RED PASSION- Red Passion was a pleasure pet from another planet. Beaten and ravaged by the jealous pets of his mistress' sister, Mistress sends him away to Earth to try and save his life. On Earth he feels confused by this new society, where men and woman are equals. He desires to win his reluctant new mistress' favor, but she seems to love her dog more than she loves him. *DARK SECRETS-Sasha has been living on her own after going through the American fostering system. Being homeless isn't easy and she must sometimes resort to turning tricks in order to eat most days. Making her way down south before winter strikes, she comes across a rock band, whose lead singer intrigues her. Surprising for her, because she ususally prefers men, but Clover is a woman. Someone's out to kill Sasha. Can it be Clover's physicotic ex-girlfriend, Crimson? Sasha falls more and more in love with Clover,who protects her, but will Clover reject her when she finally reveals her dark secret? Sasha is really...not what she seems. This is it! FALLEN ANGEL has finally been published. I worked hard for almost two years, built up a fan base and finally delivered. I had allot of problems with the upload for the cover, so unfortunately had to give it a premade one on createspace, but it doesn't look too bad. As a matter of fact, it looks like one of he scenes from the book. The surface of Megdoluc, the demon planet. The book was first available (ebook) August 1st, 2010, then I uploaded it for Kindle on amazon.com. Supposedly it will be available in paperback by August 15th. Next step, marketing. Below is the author's image I used for my bio and the section and chapter break tattoo's in the book. The interior of the book looks really beautiful! I'm very proud and satisfied. Last night I finally uploaded FALLEN ANGEL. Had a little trouble with the cover, but no real biggie. I'm just waiting to resolve this, but from the look of things, the book should be ready for sale by next week on amazon.com both in print and ebook format. I'm uploading it for kindle too and it's supposed to be available in bookstores that want to sell it. Noble Romance Publishing is a no go unfortunately, but it doesn't matter. FALLEN ANGEL will be made available for purchase on amazon.com and Barnes and Noble. I'm going to find out of I can get a few copies sold through Borders.
My graphics artist finally re-appeared. He is now designing the cover for the book so as soon as that's finished to my liking, the book will be uploaded through createspace.com. I'm also making it available for purchase on the Kindle. Cool, huh? |
