Shhh… I’m not supposed to be on here today! Don’t tell :)

It’s Canada Day up here and I’m in a celebration mood. I spent last weekend at the Alberta Rockies Gay Rodeo (http://www.argra.org/) and this friday is the official kickoff to the Calgary Stampede, the Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth (http://calgarystampede.com/)! I am loving the cowboys right now.

So, in honor of all three events, here is a little free story for you guys :)

Peter shifted on the bench, nervous despite his best efforts to relax. He had no idea what to expect. He’d only been in Calgary for a month now, and he didn’t really know that many people. Which was why he was headed to the rodeo for the whole day. He needed to do something to get out and mingle. This was supposed to be a huge pride event in the area, so he was looking forward to it. Should be fun, right? Continue Reading »

Last week, I asked you, dear readers, to answer a couple of questions for me: would you like to see Rick Gonzalez from Love’s Evolution have a hot dream full of mansex for an upcoming blog freebie story, and if so, who would you like to see him paired up with in this sexy dream?

There were some awesome suggestions — naturally, since y’all are a smart bunch *g* — but the overall concensus was for Rick to pair with a hot stranger. Sounds good to me!

So here’s another chance for y’all to do my work for me make your voice heard :D What kind of stranger should Rick get with in his dream? Should his dream lover be:
- a sweet, shy virgin-type whose nipples Rick pierced (thanks larri824dinner for the suggestion!)
- a hot, sexy guy (or two) Rick sees licking an ice-cream cone and he can’t get the image out of his head (Tam, thanks for THAT suggestion *g*)
- the new barrista at the coffee shop down the street from Dragon’s Den (where Rick works)
- a pair of young men he saw kissing on the corner one day; one of them gave him an obviously seductive look and he knew he could’ve gotten both of them into bed if he’d wanted to
- a handsome forty-ish man in a suit who Rick sees at the coffee shop sometimes; he spots the very tips of what is obviously a large tribal tattoo peeking out the neck of the man’s shirt collar and is intrigued by it
- the pretty college boy who does yard work for the elderly woman down the street

Okay, that’s about what I can come up with right now. Go forth — or, well, stay here, I guess, LOL — and vote, my children. I’ll tally votes and announce results next week :)

I can has new cover art? Why yes, yes I can. Renee George has done a fantastically fun job with the covers for the upcoming “Screen Shots” series at Changeling.

The Screen Shots series is the one I chatted about for a good while on Twitter — the gradual formation of a ten-way amongst a group of hot young things hard at work making amateur porn.

(Aside: I love that the reaction to “is tensome a word?” was mostly O_O . After that, I had to write it — couldn’t have resisted if I’d tried. I’m gonna say that “orgy” is a more appropriate word than “ten-way”, but the playfulness and number of flailing limbs counts up to the same yummy total.)

Series Blurb:

At twentysomethingtwinks dot com, a handful of studs with open minds find that there’s no end to the benefits of a hard day’s work. Where work is a pleasure, they’ll find not only employment but the man — or men — of their hottest fantasies, and friends with lots of benefits.

So, Daniel is cross dressing again. The little bugger is trying to give me ideas, I just know he is. I keep telling him I don’t have time for more plot bunnies, especially since I’m in the middle of a few WIPs. He just won’t let up, though.

I was discussing with a beta reader today the flow of a narrative and whether a character (Nick O’Malley) would ever actually want to move to the city where the other character (Dt. Brandon Carr) resides.  Now, Nicky is from Vegas.  I don’t have to explain Las Vegas to anyone.  Even if you’ve never been there you know what Las Vegas is and how huge it can be…you’ve seen pictures.

So the first misconception we had to deal with was WHICH Riverside, CA. I thought I’d made it clear from references to San Bernardino and LA that Riverside is actually in Southern California, you know Riverside County, the Inland Empire (hence the title of the second book of those characters).

And then we spent a good twenty minutes on IM discussing just how freaking big Riverside the city in So. California is. This is a city that still thinks of itself as a small town. The mindset of the 909 area code…it’s hicksville —

YEAH, when compared to Los Angeles, where the city almost fills the boarders of the county, and the county is bigger than some small east coast states. Riverside itself has a population of 300,000+ souls. It’s the 12th largest city in the state — bigger than the capitol Sacramento.  

So I guess I have to drop something into the WIP to clarify that position.

I’m not sure which I had but the other night I had a story occur to me that featured a sexy beast of a man as the hero on a mission to stop a killer. A killer who is offing supernatural beings like vampires and sirens and witches and warlocks. Both male and females, the ancient or newly formed beings are victims of this killer. He seems best at taking out the worst of the worst. And it’s uncanny how he gets close to them all without the supernatural beings figuring out what’s happening before its too late.

Our this sexy hero works for a tough guy–Satan. Seems our hero is a demon sent to hunt down this vicious, very successful serial killer before all of Satan’s minions are wiped out. He’s being punished for being a good guy once too often. He’s not actually expected to survive.

Armed to the teeth, brave, strong and fearless he tracks down the brutal monster, missing him time and again until he finally catches him in the act of destroying an ancient wizard. What our hero doesn’t count on is that this wicked, brutal murderer turns out to be a slight fair haired young man, fair of face, slight of limb, pale, quiet and beautiful. Angelic. No, really angelic. He’s an angel fallen from grace, atoning for a sin he won’t reveal, working his way back into grace. Of course the demon hero is captivated by the fallen angel. There are few more twists and turns and secrets revealed but you get the idea. And sex, lots of hot monkey sex. Guess how much the earth actually shakes when a demon falls in love with an angel?

But I’m not sure it’s worth devoting time to. What do you think?

Ever since Love’s Evolution first came out, I’ve been getting periodic email about Rick Gonzolez. For anyone who hasn’t read the book, Rick’s a tall, dark, handsome, bisexual body piercer who is a secondary character in the book. A very popular secondary character, judging by the volume of email I get begging me to get him away from “that woman”, LOL, and let him find his HEA in the arms of some lucky guy instead.

Sorry to disappoint anyone, but I have no intention of rewriting Rick’s history at this late date :)

BUT.

All the emails are wearing me down.

Dammit.

Rick really is hot, and it really would be cool to see him get his mansex on again, just one more time.
**wallows in nostalgia**

So, here’s my compromise. For one of the upcoming FWF holiday short stories, why not give Rick a nice, steamy-hot mansex dream sequence? I reserve the right to pick the holiday (since I’m not sure which one we’re doing next or who else I still need to write stories for) but y’all can pick who Rick gets paired with in his sexy dream. Does he want to dooo eeet with Chris? With Matt? With both? With someone else he knows? With his favorite movie star? With a character from one of my other books? I am not above having a guest appearance so if that’s what floats your boat just sing out *g*

What do y’all think? Good idea, or no? I will tally votes and announce next week both whether or not I’m going to do this at some point, and who Rick will be dream-sexing if I do :)

So, last time I posted, I yakked on and on about indecision and came to the conclusion that it was damn well time to get busy writing again.

…I’ve almost started.

Which isn’t quite the truth. I’ve started two WIPs, one which twisted and turned and just about corkscrewed around on itself. I think I finally understand the characters and the story they want to tell — it just happens to be absolutely nothing like the story I set out to write.

No big deal, though. I like this new story much better. Though I will be charging my muse for the bottle of whiskey I bought to sob into when I thought it had deserted me.

But! I did say WIPs, plural. Because while I was poking away at the one, this scene unfolded in my mind. And my brain really really wants me to get busy with it. We shall see. And in the meantime, I’m sharing with you.

*****

TJ found Mr. Jontan with flour on his face. “What…” He almost didn’t ask. His mouth finished the rest without his permission. “…the hell are you doing?”

“Baking.”

“Yes. I can see… huh.” He jiggled his keys. How exactly did one ask a senior wizard not to blow up your kitchen, please and thank you?

Probably, you didn’t. You practiced stop, drop and roll instead.

This is an excerpt from my current WIP, Bound To Please, which will be available some time this summer in both print and ebook from MLR Press. BTP is Benny and Jason’s story.

* This is an unedited excerpt and as such all errors are my own.

“That’s such a girlie thing to drink.” Benny eyed Rain’s wine cooler and grinned. Grabbing the bottle opener he popped the cap off a bottle of Sam Adams lager, raised it to his lips and drank deeply.

Rain grinned back. “Yeah well, I hate the taste of beer. I have ever since …” He paused, took a drink and set down the bottle on the coffeetable. “–ever since I was a kid.”

Jason cracked open his own beer and drank. “We won’t tell anybody.” He set down the bottle. “Who’s got the movie? It’s Blue Velvet, right? Isn’t that what you said? And where are Adam and Jimmy? They should be here by now.”

Thursday movie nights had become a tradition. Benny, Jason, Adam and Jimmy, and sometimes even Shannon, would gather at Jason’s to watch a movie, the choice of film rotating among the attendees.

Benny and Rain exchanged a look before Benny seized his beer once again.

Adam should have called by now to say that they weren’t coming to movie night. That was the plan. Something must have gone wrong.

Benny’s stomach danced with nerves even as he did his best to appear casual. “The disk is already in the player. Where’s the remote?”

Jason’s phone rang. He pulled it off his belt, glanced at the display and flipped it open. “Yo, Highland, where are you guys? We’re all here waiting on your sorry asses.” Jason listened.

Though he couldn’t hear Adam’s end of the conversation, Benny imagined him telling the story they had concocted to keep their little gathering down to just the three of them. Would Jason go for it?

Sure, he would. Why wouldn’t he? Continue Reading »

“Who’s my Daddy? Rory!”

“Son of a bitch!” Garth stepped back, slapping his hand to the door jamb, not at all amused by the loud and horny voice that had shouted that lovely exclamation from inside his little brother’s house.

Beside him peals of laughter let him know that at least someone was enjoying themselves. Garth glared over at the offender, momentarily distracted by the sight of the very pretty man beside him. Fonz lifted his hand, trying vainly to stop laughing, but it was way too late.

Covering his eyes, Garth stepped inside the entrance of the townhouse, stopping the minute he crossed the threshold. “Both of you better damn well have clothes on, and one of you better not be touching my baby brother!” Continue Reading »
