Angeni has gone to print from Red Rose Publishing! Thank you Red Rose.
Shape shifters and paranormal transporting - multi-cultural entertainment. She a spider - he a wolf, she a singer, he a promoter--but nothing is quite as it seems and when this dynamic duo connect evil is bound to be on the run.

Lavender Lust and Spider Island are available (around June in print) from Bookstrand
Lavender Lust is more than black and white and Spider Island makes a person look at Stephen King's Dome in a whole new light. How could two authors have the same ideas - basically, at the same time. Mine was published long before his however {smile} and mine --is an island in Lake Superior, bound to chill your spine and thrill your need for a romantic suspenseful read.

And Dark Thunder and Valentine Express are available at Erotique Press.
Thunder is the noise, the lightening strike precedes - clairvoyance doesn't always protect its owner - and the raven-eyed warrior may be the devil in disguise.

Changes

When you live in Northern Wisconsin you expect changes (winter/spring/winter) rain/snow/rain I love it.

When you are a writer you expect changes. Some publishers open doors others close theirs. One of my publishers will be closing their doors at the end of the month. I'm very sad to see Forbidden Publications going by way of the also rans.

Irish Whiskey - that just came out late last month with them and Inferno which was scheduled to release the 5th will not be released. Two others which were contracted by them will also be looking for a new home.

It's never ending this submission/rejection/acceptance route in this business. As an author one must have a calloused and turtle shell psyche, other wise I'm afraid we would all just give up.

But, you know what they say, "When the going gets tough, the tough get going." Time to pull up the bootstraps and dig in for yet another round.

Meantime you can still find Cricket releases on Erotique or Red Rose or Siren/Bookstrand--so come on up and see me some time! (Special Thanks to Mae West - "She Always Knew How" a bibliography by Charlotte Chandler (and Mae's verve.)

Time Flies and Turtles Take One Step at a Time

Sometimes when you are in Turtle mode you get there, eventually mean time you may miss out on a whole lot... So,for today I'll be in time mode and fly over here to say - HEY!

Oh! Oh! Oh! Would you believe Blue Interlude is in edits -- it won't be long before you will get an eye full of Cyan and her blue-eyed hunk. Can you imagine getting stuck in a tornado in a root cellar in the middle of Oklahoma? If it was with a hunk to die for you wouldn't really mind would you? What if his Camaro wound up deposited in a tree by the same tornado? (shhh, I don't want to give it all away--but if you thought Darien was a dark knight in search of a love story- wait until you meet...Nathan {VEG}
