Quick update. My contemporary romance, Lucifer’s Lover, just hit print.  It looks gorgeous!  Especially with that cover.  And it’s a long novel, so it’s a pretty hefty tome, too.  You can pick up a copy directly from Createspace right now, or wait a few days for the print page to populate over at Amazon.

And The Royal Talisman, my erotic historical romantic suspense, has popped up at Barnes & Noble.com for all you Nook readers.  Although, as usual, no sign of a blurb, excerpt or author information, despite faithfully filing all that guff when I uploaded…  So I’m directing you to the book’s page here, first, then you can click through to B&N…

Also, a brief housekeeping note, because I’m so squeezed for posts over the next few weeks, this is the only place I can get it in.  Recently, I did a big Spring clean up of the categorized links in the sidebar, updating them according to the criteria — they were getting a bit out of date.  There’s quite a few new entries, too.

Have a browse.

A quick follow-up to my announcement the other day about book title rights that have been returned to me, and therefore won’t be available for sale — just for a short while! — while I repackage and beef them up and put them back out there.

Several other books have been returned to me and I’ve taken the “for sale” sign off their pages:

Black Heart
Red Leopard
Solstice Surrender
Masquerade’s Mate
Dangerous Beauty
Forbidden

If you’re interested in obtaining a copy of the new edition of any of these titles (I’ll be releasing in e-book and print for the novel-sized titles), sign up for my newsletter, so that you get a notice of the release of the new edition, or subscribe to my RSS feed via your favourite Newsreader or via Email, to catch any announcement I make on the blog.

1. Working Notes – September 26: Blood Stone I’ve been getting a huge number of hits on the site lately for Brian Austin Green, and the role he played in Terminator: The Sarah...

So you may have wondered about the abrupt and echoing silence that has been my major form of communication for a while.

Chirping crickets have been louder, I know.

There are generally two reasons that bloggers go silent — either they’ve suddenly discovered that blogging is really hard  and they lose interest in it.  Posts peter out and become more infrequent until they stop altogether.  Eventually the blog gathers dust until one day it quietly disappears.

The other most frequent reason is that the blogger has had personal crises and upheavals that have prevented them from attending their blog as diligently as they would like.  So posts go adrift until they can return with a dustbuster and renewed enthusiasm.

Guess which camp I’m in?

Yeah, alas.

If I were in the first category, I would have stopped this crazy game, oh, about three years ago.

I won’t go into detail about the more personal elements of the family situations that have dogged us for about the last six months, because I know that family members read this blog and I don’t want to stir up unnecessary emotions, and it’s really not for public consumption.

But for me personally, it has been a hard, uphill slog since Christmas last year.  I hung in there as long as I could, keeping all the balls in the air, but they slowly began to drop one by one.  We dashed off to Australia in May, which didn’t help, and as soon as we returned I began the ego-destroying and time-inhaling task of finding a better-paying full time job, while we eeked out a living on my paltry $9/hr shift work and tried to sweet-talk credit card companies into being nice to us just one more time…

On September 1, I started that job.  I’m now a public servant, and earning nearly four times what I was as a barista.  While the finances will take a while to smooth themselves out, Mark and I can finally see daylight.  And it’s very sweet.

Also a huge plus:  I can start writing again.  Since I returned from Australia in May I haven’t really progressed at all on the sequel to Blood Knot, because finding another job was such a desparately all-important and time-consuming priority.  But now I’m a 9-5 suit again, and have a predictable, stable routine, I can already feel the creativity starting to fire up and the juices starting to flow.

Which is good news for you.

More news in the days and weeks to come.  Plus excerpts.  I know you love ‘em.

Cheers,

Tracy

Some quick housekeeping notes.

1.  Blood Knot, my erotic MMF urban fantasy romance, has just been released in print and is available on Amazon for $11.97.  As the distribution system slowly trickles down, it will become available at other stores like Barnes & Noble, etc — I’ll report on them and add their links to Blood Knot’s page here, as I spot them.

2. The guest post on Escape Between The Pages today was posted with comments closed, which meant you, the reader, couldn’t post comments or enter the contest for a copy of Kiss Across Swords.  I’ve been attempting to find out if this is just a technical hitch or if there is an alternative method of entering the contest.  Stay tuned, and I’ll let you know if the situation changes.

I have to finish this post then go rebuild my site to accommodate the blog once more.  Which pleases me no end, because I have so missed blogging it’s not funny.

And there’s so much to tell!

Rather than overwhelm you with all the news in an info dump of one post, I’ll just contain myself to the big one.

My latest book came out three days ago.  Blood Knot is:

1) Erotic urban fantasy romance. (MFF, vampires, paranormal, contemporary)

2) The cover is gorgeous (see below?)

3)  It’s up on Amazon already.

4)  It’s only $2.99  (gasp!)

5)  And…it’s self-published.

Yep, I’ve joined the ranks of the indie authors.

There’ll be more about future titles I have planned and the huge book tour (free books!) I’ve got booked for BLOOD KNOT, later.  For now, I have to go rearrange my site.

Please drop in and say hi!  I’ve missed you all!
