I’m busy these days writing the second “Finding Family” book, The Family We Make. It’s Rick’s story, and to some degree his brother Sam’s. I hope to self-publish this one, although not for free, and dip my toes into the official self-pub waters. I also have two books, the next Hidden Wolves, and The Rebuilding Year sequel, in line for editing. Real life stuff has slowed me down, but I’m getting back into the swing … Read more

Since I released my short free novel, Changes Coming Down in Hunting Under Covers a couple of weeks ago, I’ve had people PM and email me with questions. Since several were repeats, I thought I’d put the answers in a blog (because I’m lazy that way.) What is your actual story in the anthology about? The anthology blurb doesn’t say. When I put it on my book list on my website, I had to come … Read more

I said yesterday that I did two interviews, and of course they came out on the same day. The second one is more general, about my other books and my writing, and what is upcoming with my WIPs. It’s also longer, because Marc, the interviewer, is a friend. When we start chatting it goes on for a bit. Commenting at the end of that interview puts you in the running for a free backlist … Read more

I’ve done a couple of interviews about writing my first M/M/M menage story. Casey, Will and Scott were fun to watch emerging from the story. I spent three weeks deeply immersed in the relationship balance between an ex-Marine small-town sheriff, a ranch foreman with a lonely past, and a pro hockey player who is gone on the road more than he’s home. The first interview is posted on Shayla’s Little Shell, the blog of author … Read more

I know I said I wasn’t writing any more freebies for a bit. I have my books in existing series waiting for me to work on them. But here’s another freebie. It wasn’t my idea, honestly… For those who are members of the Goodreads M/M Romance Group, you may know that there are some book-reading games there. I’ve played Bingo, where teams read books for categories that fill up a bingo card. It’s a lot … Read more

So that was 2013. Well… On the personal-life side, it was the year in which I learned to use “but no one is dead, yet” as a positive statement. Enough said. But on a book and writing side, it was a pretty good year. I went to the Gay Rom Lit retreat as an author this year. For the first time, I created Kaje Harper swag, in the form of magnets and plot-bunnies, and ducks. … Read more

Some of my family are fortunately easy to please. And there is a satisfaction in making someone happy, even if it’s just the dog. This is the season for caring about each other, for sharing what we have with those less fortunate, and for doing the little things that make people smile. I’m trying to take a deep breath and remember that. Life has been crazy lately, and until yesterday I had done no Christmas … Read more

My free holiday short story, The Family We’re Born With, is now available from Smashwords. Hopefully tomorrow I’ll get it up on ARe, and for the usual initial .99 price to charity at Amazon. ETA: Now up both places Links ARe, Amazon. Enny Kraft helped me get the cover pretty: I hope you enjoy meeting Devin and Jesse, Jesse’s half-brother, Sam, his mom, and the rest of the family he was born with. I … Read more

Despite the week of cold here (minus numbers Fahrenheit are cold) and Friday the Thirteenth trying to outdo itself, two good things happened today. One is that I found out I made the short list of five authors nominated for Favorite M/M Author of 2013 on Jessewave. The voting just started today, and I already got a few votes and a couple of nice comments. *warm fuzzies abound*. The list includes Amy Lane, Harper … Read more
