The ereader has revolutionized my reading, greatly improving ease of acquisition, expanding selection, and eliminating those pesky storage issues. Thanks to organizing the virtual titles, even finding a book I want to read is faster. There are fifty unread titles and countless books I want to re-read waiting for time and whim to coincide. Despite this largess,I buy a dozen new books each month in addition to library titles and free releases. What with writing and real life this is way more books than I have time to read. Hence, the book buying sabbatical.
I’m already making a list of titles of I want to buy.

Dalila orbits Enyo, prepared to carry out her orders to conquer the hostile warriors by any means necessary. But warriors shoot first and ask no questions. Blasted out the sky, her damaged ship plunges into a stormy sea. Rescued by intimidating twin brothers, she is stranded with them on a remote island. Her weapon training, hand-to-hand combat skills, and sketchy mind control instructions didn’t prepare her for dealing with the overwhelmingly male warriors. In desperation, she wields a dangerous new weapon, sex appeal.
The attraction between the three of them is a two-edged blade, slicing her as deeply as it does the men. She’s instantly drawn to Kelvar, who saved her from drowning. His raw male instincts, strength, and honor fail to hide a tender heart. His twin, Dexon secured her damaged spacecraft, incurring serious injury. When she tends his wound, she awakens potent desires.
Now she’s caught between the two men. Their law demands she chose. She has only three days to decide. One twin will be her mate for life. The other will die. But how can she choose between the two fierce warriors, when both have captured her heart?
This is the new and improved version of Dalila’s Choice released in February of this year!

More dialogue from the scrap file…
“By the way, the next time you’re upset with whatever I’m doing you could say stop, dragonfly or nymph or even peanut butter.”
“Peanut butter?”
“Yeah. I hate the stuff. I’d quit instantly to make gagging noises.”
Impulsively she pinched his side. As soon as her fingers released his skin, her chest constricted with fear.
“Ouch. What was that for?”
She let the breath she’d held out with a sign of relief. “Being a smartass.”
“I was serious.” His voice deepened further into sexy dominant man territory.
Oh, you’re dangerous. You make me believe in the impossible. She wriggled out of his hold, pulled back and aimed her fiercest glare at him. “You’re not treating this seriously. You wound needs proper medical attention.”
“Fine, you’re a horrible person and my injuries are your fault.” His voice lowered again. “Since I’m the injured party, I should decide the penalty.”
She swallowed a lump of fear and managed a nod.
“Good. Your nursing responsibilities will suffice as punishment…”
“Taking care of you isn’t torture.” She rolled her eyes.
He leaned back, crossed his arms and fixed his intense gaze on her. “Don’t think you’re getting off easy. You’re not.”
Dear God, the man redefined stubborn, manipulative and he was so dominant he made her bossy brother look reasonable.

The kind reviewer said, “I loved Ivy and Chet; they make a wonderful couple. Ivy is a strong woman and is more than willing to stand up for herself and those that she cares for. Chet is an honorable man who loves with all his heart. Alone they both are stand strong but together they are a force to be reckoned with. Watching their bond grow stronger was a great read.”

In a bout of nostalgia, I cruised by the websites of some longtime writer friends. These are women I met on discussion boards and critique groups when I first pursued writing for publication almost a decade ago. Writing is lonely pursuit and this group of dedicated women were wonderfully supportive and encouraging.
Out of the dozen or so I exchanged enough commentary with to consider friends most were eventually published and met with various degrees of commercial success. None have released any titles recently. The reasons are likely as personal and varied as their delightful voices.
John Steinbeck said, “The profession of book-writing makes horse-racing seem like a solid, stable business.
I’m grateful for new friends to commiserate and cheer with, still I miss reading my old friends.

Dalila’s Choice exclusive kindle status comes up for renewal next month. I’m wondering how many nook fans are out there? How many readers prefer to shop at All Romance? How many are happy buying from Amazon?
This indie publishing business is loaded with choices I really have no idea how to make.

A bit of backstory, already cut from the current manuscript…

The Crucible offered the added attraction of the wizard. A master famed for his ability to match dominants and submissives with uncanny perfection. Tiana might meet the legendary matchmaker and be introduced to the master of her heart.
She snorted softly. That’ll happen right when I take up flying without a jet.
Of course, she wasn’t expecting to meet the Dom of her dreams right away. She probably wasn’t ready for him anyway. Someday, with luck she would be. In spite everything that had happened, her heart still hadn’t given up on the dream of a forever master or else she wouldn’t be here. Would she?

Whilst tromping through the lush tropical forest of ever changing characters and plots from time to time I draw out my synopsis and revise it to reflect the current landmarks, because a girl needs a map even if it’s been through a few editions…
Reading my own work aloud always seems faintly silly, but I catch things I know I’d miss without this step.
What is your most favorite and least favorite parts of your job?
