Byzantine Heartbreak

Disasters & Deals! (Not Related)

We’re still hunkered down behind closed doors here.  But I’m getting so much done while we are!  I’m writing lots, and also getting lots of other types of work done, too, including all the cooking.

My Life/Working Notes – Wednesday, May 29, 2013

Happy Hump Day! From one perspective, May has been a long, hard month. On the other hand, I’m kinda reluctant to let it go, because I have to let go of my favourite series at the same time, and move on to something else. I’ve written at length about my withdrawals symptoms over Kiss Across

I’m at That’s Erotica! Today

The book tour for the second book in my erotic vampire romance series, Blood Stone, continues today, with a guest post at That’s Erotica! where I’m talking about one of erotic romance’s favourite obsessions, vampires and sex, and why vampires should (theoretically) be hotter and generally more depraved than they are.

Is Romance A Feminist Genre?

Despite the romance genre readership being 99% female, there’s room for argument that the romance storylines are anything but feminist. It depends on how you measure them.  There are two “tests” out there by which romance novels fail miserably.

Refashioning, Frugality and the New Poor…Indie Reading Is Part of The New Sexy.

You know when the threes start happening?  You won’t have heard about her in months, but suddenly in one day three different people will be talking about Jessica Simpson — all three totally unrelated stories about her?  Or you move through your day and see a picture of a Tessler on an advertisement on line,

As I’m quietly and steadily working my way through Blood Stone, and the weekend started out with an empty email in-tray, and nothing moving on Facebook or anywhere else, I thought this was going to be one of those bulletins where I would have nothing to report, except for progress.
