Pleasure Brigade: Passion Next Door

Hi everyone! I'm thrilled that the first story in the Pleasure Brigade series is available now at Ellora's Cave. Passion Next Door is probably one of the hottest stories I've written so far.

One of my bestest writing friends is having a release party for me over on her blog. Trust me, the eye candy's worth the click. :)

I've been getting a few emails asking if Autumn's story will continue. And what about the other guys?

Well, I have every intention for there to be another story for Autumn. I'm polishing up a Pleasure Brigade story to submit in the next week or so. Hopefully I'll have more on that very soon.

Someone asked where the inspiration for this story came. And, well, I wish I could say I had a neighbor like THAT in my past. But, sadly, this one is directly attributable to a very active imagination one night when I was thinking "What if..."

Hope you all enjoy.

Have a fabulous weekend, and don't forget to go check out the party Alannah's throwing.

Happy Monday!

Whew! It's hard to believe that yet another month is about to collapse. This is truly the beginning of the part of the year I enjoy the most, though. The crispier weather, the magical moments had around the Holidays with family and friends. There's nothing quite like this time of the year.

I had the lovely opportunity to take in some breathtaking fall folliage on Thursday though. Okay, it wasn't "take in" as much as glimpse as as the airplane I was on whirled by. But I still saw more bits of yellow, gold and red than I'd ever had before. Absolutely gorgeous.

I had a wonderful time at the RWA's NJRW Conference the past few days. The lovely ladies of that chapter know how to throw a conference for sure. Meeting so many wonderful people has never been quite so simple--now I can only hope all those names swimming around in my head choose to stay tagged to the proper face for the next time I see everyone. :)

What about you? What did you do this weekend?

'Tis Almost The Season

Wow! Can you believe it's October already?

The crispier, dark mornings have crept into Austin, even though I can't believe it's almost winter again. And with the encroaching colder weather comes....

Shopping!

Every year I vow to get a jumpstart on my Christmas and Holiday shopping. No matter my good intentions, something seems to encroach on my carefully constructed plan and leave me where I always am--frantically dashing through the aisles shoveling whatever I can into my cart in a harried frenzy of determination. This year I won't be buying gifts on Christmas Eve.

Before Christmas though I have two birthdays in my family, and one for my best friend. My friend's birthday is this month, just a few days away from Halloween. (Might I say it's quite difficult not to tease her about this every year...hehe).

My brother's is in November. He was a Turkey baby. So, does anyone have gift ideas for a technically inclined man?
