Taboos and Perversions

 

This picture reminds me of my WIP( Read more... )

 

So, Anasa is DONE!

*runs around the room screaming*

I'm really stoked about this book. I love the two characters, their banter is really some of the best I've written in a long time. I really happy how it turned out, but again, the ending is lacking. I hope to fix it once I get it back from the beta readers, but in the meantime, I'm happy with Anasa. 

I'll be putting down the paranormal for a bit and concentrating on two contemporary novellas. One is an MF for my new muse, Veronica and the other is an MM for Rawiya called Save Me. Save Me is actually a continuation of a story I wrote for my cousin who committed suicide in 2011. A lot of the parts were done in a short I did called Guardian Angel and an antho with the same title. I'm basically rewriting the whole book into one to give this book the happy ending I wanted for it in the beginning. I'm hoping to release that for Xmas. 

Teacher's Pet is my MF and I hope that will also come out in Nov/Dec. Those books, along with Calisto's Quest, which is Immortals 4 and my short Double Play for Minor League Alphas, will finish out the year for me as far as releases. I really wanted Immortals to be done by the end of the year but again,I have a series that will be carried into the following year. Thankfully, with only 2 books. Mercurio's Mating, book 5 and Book 6 for a character who has wormed her way into my heart, the kid Annerxa. We shall see what happens with that. 

So as far as WIP's, I have Teacher's Pet and Save Me on tap. Also edits on SMOKE which I got back from my content editor. This book might not be out this year, but we will see what happens. I might hold it back until January so I'll have something new to look forward to for the new year!

Thanks for listening

 

The title of this post, is WRITING!

I know what you're saying. Shar isn't your blog, taboos and perversions about WRITING? It sure is, but I wanted to chat more about what I'm working on. 

For some reason I am feeling EXTREMELY chatty today. I've written three blog posts and this is the 4th. What can I say, I have a lot on my mind. 

Ahem

Okay, so I'm working on Nola Nuptials and Immortals One Demon be Mine. If I can stop blogging and get back to these stories, I should have both finished by Monday. Demon is at the point where the MCs want to jump in bed. They're diggin each other, blah blah. And Nola was a request from a reader to see a wedding. Frankie and Kajika's wedding since they've been through so much. They are my most beloved characters so I'm giving them their HEA.

Once I'm done with these two, I will start PROTEKT 3. I have the title, I wrote the synopsis. My editor likes it so she is waiting for me to send her the damn book. I'm also starting Veronica's first short story. It will be very simple, sexy, erotica MF to get her going before I start writing longer works. This is to get her out there and hope she grabs some people along the way. When I finish one of those, I'll be working on Our Father Gren DuMont which is the twins PREQUEL. I'm also doing a story for Rawiya. It looks to be Sugar Daddy and I'll be making it simpler instead of the complex plot I'd already done. 

By the time May is done, I'll be ready to pull on BL again and we'll start with UTG3 as well as Hirah 3. Hirah 3 is done first draft wise, but I plan on adding more and perhaps changing some things. BL and I also would like to do a new erotica series called Fender Benders which will be all metal erotica shorts. We'll see how that goes!

In this mosh of info, you're probably wondering what happened with Smoke. Well, Smoke is getting read by the betas and I already have 3 people who've gotten back to me. One wasn't okay with the 3 POV thing, so I separated it in chapters. When I get the others back, I'll begin going through chapter by chapter to see what can be cut or added. I'm sitting on 72 chapters. Some are long, some aren't. If I figure out that the chapter isn't needed it will get deleted. 

Tempo was actually accepted by Evernight which gives me and Michael our first contract of 2017! *throws confetti* the plan was to have 10 submissions this year. *grimaces* Right now I'd settle for five but we'll see what happens. I'm also self-pubbing books and as you know that takes time and money. I need covers and editing done on these books, so we shall so how it all goes!

That's the update for now. 

Oh and the muse? That is Mario Dapper. He is Veronica's first vic ... I mean, muse. *winks* A sexy MF IR with some heat. *winks*
