Keepers
Have you ever read a book you love so much you put it on a keeper shelf? I have a couple like that. They encompass about three shelves, and they include names like Ocrzy, Dickens, Bronte, Stephen King, Dan Brown, Jude Devereaux, Loretta Chase and Judith McNaught.
What Makes A Good Romance?
I often wonder what makes a good romance book for a reader. There are numerous subgenres in the romance genre, and for me personally, I like most types of romance books as long as it’s a book I can’t put down. I do confess to having a preference for historial and paranormal romance, which is why I write in both.
Wing It
I’m often asked where I get my ideas from. I’m never sure how to answer that question because I really don’t know. Take this post for instance. I don’t have any clear cut idea of what I’m going to end up with here, but as a pantser (someone who writes by the seat of their pants) I just wing it.
Living Dangerously
I love danger. I’ve always been a risk taker. I’ve had angels retire because of the stress I cause them. However, they do perform admirably when I need them. grin
Dangerous Men on Release Day
Dangerous men have always fascinated me. By dangerous, I mean tortured bad boys. There’s just something about a scarred hero that appeals to my inner psyche.
The Changing Bodyscapes of ER/Erotica
On Michelle Buonfiglio’s blog at Lifetime TV’s website this past week, the Queen Bella (as she’s affectionately known by her following) has been hosting a veritable feast of erotic romance and erotica authors all week long. The discussions there have been open, honest and quite frank. Yesterday author Pam Rosenthal asked whether we thought erotic romance/erotica has changed and developed in the past few years.
A Good Reviewer Is Like Money In Your Pocket
This past weekend, the DH and I went to the movies for the first time in more than a year (If you’re a parent, you understand). I was dying to see Live Free, Die Hard with Bruce Willis as John McClain. The trailers were awesome, but then they showed all the best parts. Too bad my favorite movie critic, Roger Ebert hadn’t reviewed the movie yet. We could have saved money and just bought the DVD. I imagine Ebert’s not going to like the movie any better than I did. How do I know that? Because Roger and I have the same tastes. Only occasionally do we disagree. It works the same way with books. Find a reviewer who likes the same type of reads you do, and you’ll stand a good chance of liking the book they recommend.
