Geeky writer-ness
January 20, 2008 | Uncategorized
Yesterday, I didn’t write. A non-writing day is a novelty for me. But I’m resting my over-worked head for a few days before finishing up the Instant Seduction entry. So what did I do with all those hours I usually write?
Read. What else? It is cold and wet outside. I’m re-reading Bird by Bird, by Anne Lamott. If you’ve never read it, you’re missing a wonderful book. It’s about writing and life and is wise and funny.
I also read a few chapters of friend’s first draft and loved that too. He put the links to his first chapters on the web.

Then to round out my reading I opened up Linda Winfree’s What Mattered Most

I’m not done with the book yet. However, I am hooked. To the extent that I hesitate buying another of her titles, what if it’s not as good?
When I googled myself, yeah I know but it’s good clean geeky fun, I found Dangerous Surrender is now available at Fictionwise.

It’s classified as an erotica, I’ve decided I’m okay with that designation. It is however, an erotic suspense, there is violence in addition to sex and graphic language.
When both Hunter and Tru bond with Amber their mating triangle threatens everything they hold dear.
Determined to help rescue the princess, Cassandra agrees to act as the dragons’ sex slave, but can she guard her heart from the dominant males?
Camille, a plump, sweet-natured breeder, is caught in New Eden’s endless war with Baldor. Her mates, Jaxon and Aegis, need cunning and courage to rescue her. They need a miracle to capture her heart.
Werewolf-whisper Daniel is the only one who can heal Scarlet’s broken werewolf connection. If he succeeds then the pack’s needs will eclipse his claim on her heart. But if he fails, they'll both die.
A lonely woman finds passion with a dominant much younger lover, when she tries to leave she learns her new master plays for keeps.
One dangerous warrior woman plus two rogue demon males equals a love to threaten an empire.
Getting paid to watch Eduardo is Desiree’s dream assignment, but when he reaches out to her, crossing the line, everything changes.
Deep in her secret heart, she lusts for a sexy pirate who’d be her master and commander in the bedroom. But, this man may be too dangerous
She finds paradise in the arms of twin brothers, but their law demands she chose one warrior to mate and one to die.
One woman, two men, three wounded hearts--though already mated their love is still forbidden.

Thanks for the link, Evanne! Every little helps, eh? (Incidentally, I’ve reciprocated and added you to my blogroll under Writing Links.)
It’s a wet afternoon in Middlesbrough so I’m going to follow your excellent example and settle down with a good book and a packet of Maltesers after a productive morning ;)
Talk soon.

Thank you Gary, I’m tunneling my way to notoriety one reader at a time, so don’t expect a big rush of attention ;) Enjoy your afternoon of reading–I’ve positively wallowed in books for two days now I may be ready to do something productive….

Evanne, wallowing in books is productive :-)
