A Delay in Progress

Hey all, I thought I would post something quick to let you know what is holding up progress since I did the cover reveal.

Sadly, I came down with some sort of illness that really knocked me down. I haven't been that sick in a long time. The good news is I'm on the mend and well enough to get back to work on things. I had thought I could work on some of it while I was sick, but my muddled mind wasn't having it.

I did get plenty of reading in while I was sick. I read a couple of thrillers while I was down, which normally isn't my thing, but both of them turned out to be great reads. One was 'The Girl on the Train' by Paula Hawkins. I'd picked up a copy at the last library books sale, figured since I hadn't read it, why not? I must say it was a good choice.

The other one was 'Kill Game' by Dean Wesley Smith. Which was a heck of a fun read. It had plenty of twists and turns that kept me guessing, and had a light fun ending.

Like I said, not my normal reading material, but I have started to read more mysteries and thrillers in the past couple of years. Probably because I've enjoyed reading romantic suspense from time to time. That and honestly, I'll read just about anything.

Now, I'm getting back to my own stories. I had hoped to have the next story out a couple weeks ago, but getting sick happens. Luckily it doesn't happen often with me. I do feel bad about the delay since I was making solid progress. I know it might take a little time to get back in the swing of things after this, but I'll get there. So keep checking back and I'll post more news about the upcoming release as I make progress.

New Release - Beach Fling with the Biker

 Another new release is here! Beach Fling with the Biker is live! The last thing I needed was the temptation of a hot biker who takes my mind off everything but him. . . Alexa A week alone on the beach. That’s all I wanted. A week to figure out how to escape my father’s accounting firm that he expects me to take over one day. Except, a reservation screw up ends my alone time. Now, I’m sharing it with a god of a man who rode in on a bike. I’m supposed to be figuring my life out, not obsessing over a hot biker I won’t ever see again when the week is over. Would I risk my father’s wrath for a man I barely know? Or could this biker be the life path I’ve been searching for? Damon All I wanted was a week alone on the beach. One last time to live wild and free before I take on responsibilities my family is pressuring me into. Only a reservation screw up has me staying with a woman who wears loud shirts and tempts me like no other. By the end of the week, I’ll have to make a choice. Do I r...

Blogs - Why I Love Them and Why I Want to Do More

  I like blogs. I read several almost daily. Most of the ones I read are by authors, but I read other kinds of blogs as well. Some blogs have helped me. For example, when I decided knitting a pair of socks was a great idea, I found a blog to help me figure out the stitches for the heel of the sock. Or when I decided to dual boot my laptop with Linux, while retaining Windows. Although, I'm not sure why, I've never really logged into my Windows partition. Oh well. The point is the info on a blog was there to help me. As some of you know I'm not big on social media. I've never understood Facebook and honestly, I'm not sure I ever will. To some extent I do, but mostly I don't. I feel like everybody is shouting, "Hey, look at me, and here's my views on this and that, today I'm upset at this other thing, and oh by the way this is what I had for breakfast with photos." I can live my life without that madness. Once upon a time, I did try to be active o...

Four Years of Self Publishing - What I’ve Learned and Looking Ahead

  Last month marked four years since I began my self publishing journey. It’s hard to believe that it’s been that long already. In some ways, it’s even harder to believe that I’m still at it and still trying. It’s been a learning journey for certain. Not just about writing and publishing, but also about myself. A Brief Look Back I’ve published nine stories in these four years. I’m disappointed I haven’t published more, but at the same time, I’m amazed at how far I’ve come. From being scared to death about putting myself out there, to having nine stories published. Not a big win, but a win I’ll take. When I started this, I set out to write erotic short stories. I'd read a few books that claimed that writing short erotica would have you earning money in no time. Sounded like a good idea to me. My first three stories, His Workaholic , Getting Her Clients and Her Holiday Fireworks , certainly revolved around sex. But they also have romantic elements and could've passed as erotic ...
