Yesterday (4th June) I received the contract for Body Rocks. And tonight I returned it! Tentative release date at this time is 18th July.
Progress report on Lust in the First Degree - it stands at just over 28k. Another 20k and I'll be ready to submit. I'm working hard on it and hopefully will submit to Siren sometime in July. Hopefully before Body Rocks is released! I'm having a blast writing it. Matt is so cynical when it comes to romance and love, but, and just like his sister, Ramona, in "Animal Instincts" when the right man- or in Matt's case, woman- comes along, you're blown away. Darcy is the perfect soul mate for Matt. Well, if a volcanologist can't tame a bad-ass cop with a volcanic temper, I don't know who else can!
One final note - I definitely don't like this new look blogger page. Just got used to the old one and then they changed it! And for those who follow me, I do follow you too, but it always says I'm not following anybody's blogs!

Lust in the First Degree
Lust in the First Degree, the 4th and final book of the Andersons series, is going rather well. Am writing about 500 words a night, which I know isn't a lot, but it's better than nothing! At the moment it stands at almost 23k, but 13k of that is what I'd already written in notes etc. It all needs sorting out as the POV is all over the place.
After finishing this book, I'll be taking a break for a while to get my head into gear and then I will start writing "Addiction". David, a good friend of mine, is going to be teaching me karate. Well, not physically but virtually as in chatting on Facebook! Maybe even meeting me for coffee. Either way it should be good. I might even base the hero's character of Addiction - Anakin Howard - on David. My way of saying thank you and will probably dedicate the book to him. Some of you might know Anakin from "Secret Eyes", he's the brother of Leia, who made an appearance in the book and at the very end in the epilogue. In fact, that epilogue is going to be the prologue for Addiction.
After Addiction, I plan on writing a new series called "Sins of Silver Creek". Silver Creek is the fictional town in Montana that I created when I first started writing way back in 2007. It's the home of the Andersons. And the very first book I ever wrote but with a major tweek with the characters, it will be the first in the Sins of Silver Creek series. It's also going to be a menage, a first for me.
At the same time though, another book is shouting to be written for another good friend of mine - Mark. Decisions, decisions. What shall I write first and where will I find the time? Mmm, methinks a chocolate bar is needed to help. Don't know how, but it sure will taste good!

Bout time I blogged
I haven't blogged for like ages! Nothing to write is my problem.
An update on my books.
I've completed the edits for Animal Instincts and emailed them back to Siren. Just waiting for the second and final edits. I have received the cover and Jinger has done an awesome job.
Body Rocks is now definitely finished. I plan on doing nothing further with it. It stands at 48k. A massive achievement considering I didn't think I'd get to the 35k mark. I have done the brief synopsis and plan on submitting it to Siren when I have almost completed Lust in the First Degree. A couple of months at the most.
Lust in the First Degree is the new title for Laws of Lust. So far I've written almost 17k, but at least half of that is stuff I'd already written, like the sex scenes etc. Some people start at Chapter 1, I start at the sex scenes! They need some major editing though as they're in both Matt and Darcy's POV. I need to seperate their POV so not only do they read better but to add a few thousand words to the manuscript. One sex scene I haven't written though is an anal one. Yep, I'm going for anal this time. What I've briefly jotted down is hot, hot, hot! I've surprised even myself.
After finishing the Anderson series, I intend to write 'Addiction' about Anakin Howard (the brother of Leia from Secret Eyes). And then I have an idea for a new series titled 'Sins of Silver Creek'. The first book will be a MFM. Another first for me.
Well, that's it folks, and thanks for reading.
