I now have the cover for Sole Support from Samhain Publishing: He can find a use for his lover’s hands…except when he needs help the most. Blurb: Kellen is short on cash—at least until his first novel starts to sell—but he has plenty of friends. None of them, unfortunately, share his love of books. For that he turns to IM chats with Mike from his online book group. Though he manages to coax the shy, … Read more

My stand-alone contemporary romance The Rebuilding Year which released in ebook format last March, is now available from Samhain in paperback format (and is currently significantly discounted at several retailers, including at Samhain’s own site.) If you’re not a big fan of ebooks, you can now hold this one in your hands. I’m doing a giveaway for a couple of signed copies on Goodreads via their giveaway program (I hope – I’ve never tried it … Read more

I try not to post about good reviews and making best-of lists too much, because the books should stand for themselves with everyone making their own judgments. So I hesitated to post this, right after the bit about the M/M group awards. Which I am still really thrilled about because… yeah, a whole bunch of readers voted for my books. *Big grin* But this blew me away, and I am so chuffed. (Isn’t that a … Read more

The M/M Romance Group had their second annual Member Choice Awards announcement this morning. These awards are always fun, because it’s not just a few knowledgeable individuals rating the books, but votes from the people who count most – readers, like the 9000+ who make up the group. These awards mean a lot. I had a bunch of nominations this year. (Okay, I did count them – 36.) Each of those was a gift, of … Read more

Brandon Shire, author of several acclaimed books including Afflicted, invited me to come visit his blog and talk about which of my books is my baby. You know, the story that as an author you secretly favor over the others, (although we don’t tell them that,) and had fun writing, and hope the cruel world is good to. That book. So I did, and the post is on Brandon Shire’s website here.

This has been just a fun week so far! First I got to see a rough version of the cover for my upcoming Samhain book, Sole Support. Yes, the book still isn’t coming out until June, but Samhain is always waaaay out in front with everything. I like this cover a lot. Second, I wrote a lot on Life Lessons #4 in the last few days, and I’m 2/3 done with the book. I’m still … Read more

So that was 2012 – wow. It was a year of ups and downs for me, with lots of pain and anxiety on the personal side. But that was balanced by wonderful support and success on the professional side. The very best part was finding all the friends, readers, reviewers, authors, and other folk whom I met online in the past year. I’m going to start and end by saying: Thank you all for your … Read more
