I’m a member of the Goodreads M/M Romance group, and we’re gearing up for the annual free story event – this year called Love Has No Boundaries. There are about 180 stories planned, and three have already been released early. The main event gets started June 1st, with a couple of stories appearing daily through June and July, and possibly into August. Some of my best stories (Into Deep Waters, Like the Taste of Summer, … Read more

Today is the International Day against Homophobia and Transphobia. There’s a blog hop going on among authors and publishers for this event – and I’m not actually part of it. (Life got a bit complex and I just missed the chance to sign up officially. I put a link for you at the bottom of the post.) But I still wanted to write something today. And if you read down, there is a prize drawing … Read more

So, a progress report… I’ve turned in my free story for the Goodreads M/M Romance group event, Love Has No Boundaries. My “short story” ended up as a 103,600 word fantasy novel. (Oops.) It’s pretty much classic fantasy, with a hurt-comfort friends-to-lovers type of M/M romance at its heart. There’s no fixed release date at present – sometime between now and August is as close as I know – and the cover’s not quite ready, … Read more

I’ve uploaded the files to Smashwords and Goodreads for this free short story (or is 33,000 words a novella?) Either way, Unwanted Appeal – Hidden Wolves 2.5 takes place shortly after the end of Unexpected Demands – Book 2. It has spoilers for the novel, so they’re really best read in order. Goodreads isn’t letting me upload .mobi files at the moment, but it’s available there in .pdf and .epub. All the formats are available … Read more

On Thursday April 25th, I plan to release the next installment in the Hidden Wolves series. Unwanted Appeal – Hidden Wolves 2.5 This story follows after, and contains spoilers for, Unexpected Demands – Hidden Wolves Book 2. Blurb: Werewolf packs traditionally stay aloof from one another, but gossip still spreads like wildfire. Whispers and rumors about Simon and his mate-bonded male lover, and the pack’s experiences with human were-hunters, are still making the rounds. Aaron, … Read more

You saw the gorgeous cover last week; Unsettled Interlude is now available for free download on Goodreads from its book page, and also on Smashwords in multiple formats. At 11,000 words, this is about a double-length expansion of the short story “Interlude” that I’ve had on my blog and website. Don’t read this before the first Hidden Wolves book, Unacceptable Risk, because of spoilers. If you’ve read Risk, then this story adds an extra glimpse … Read more

Today I finished the rough draft of the free story I’m writing for the Goodreads M/M Romance Group’s summer “Love Has No Boundaries” event. It’s going to be a somewhat angsty fantasy novel (over 90K because I’m addicted to writing.) I can’t tell you the title, since the group likes to play guessing games with that, but it will be a summer release. I’ll be able to give you some more information about it later. … Read more

I haven’t posted for a while, partly because I’ve been busy with real life and partly because I haven’t released anything new. In the past I’ve usually had an impending release to blog about, so it’s been a bit odd so far this year to have nothing. But I thought I’d let you know a few plans going forward. The fourth Life Lessons book was accepted by MLR Press, and is in editing. I can’t … Read more

For the month of Februaury, I ran a giveaway drawing through Goodreads for a couple of paper copies of The Rebuilding Year and they’ve pulled two winners out of the hat. Out of more than 750 entires – wow! I had a link here on my WordPress blog too, and someone pointed out to me that you had to be a member of Goodreads to enter the drawing. People who were not, couldn’t get into … Read more
