Today is the Day for Cobblestone Authors. Congrats.





















The wave of the future is here. Ebooks are growing in popularity. I love them because I buy the book online, and then I can read it. Print books I order online take forever (it seems) to get here. Cobblestone is one of the best epublishers I've seen. Their covers are great. Their authors are extremely talented and they are easy to deal with both for the authors I've talk with and the people who buy their ebooks.
Enough smoozing.
Today is Friday and although I'd like to be blasting Linkin Park and diving into my wip, I'm having to keep the house relatively quiet for sleeping nineteen year olds. *Sigh*. I've asked them to clear the house out, but there just doesn't seem to be a nice way to get rid of them. Would "Get. Out." in the Amityville Horror voice get it done?
Worst of all, I'm stuck. Not just with one wip, but both of them.
"Cold Vengeance" is clicking along. The H/h have just made love and the afterglow period is next. In the old version, I missed the emotional turmoil that is stirred up by sex. Somehow, I have to find that turmoil--emotional turmoil--to move on. I've got turmoil. It's just nineteen and needs to stop screwing around.
"Rough Seas" has also hit the shallows. I've gotten to the part where I need to introduce the villian and it's not coming very easily. Part of the problem is that my villian is a wet dishrag. He needs some "evil". The triangle has to be equal. Right now, some of my secondary characters are more interesting than my villian.
I was hoping to hash it out this morning. I'm thinking I may chase them out anyway. Maybe if I play some Johnny Mathis? LOL. I know! I'll put in some Abba! That'll chase them off.
Oh, I just finished "Bound By Love" by Loribelle Hunt. Whew! What a fabulous story. I'll gush more about that tomorrow.
