Even though I’m on holiday I hope you’ll keep stopping by to see what I’m up to. All going well with internet connections, I plan to post a few photos and give you my impressions of the places we visit in the US.

In September, I have Terry Spear coming to visit and also Joy Nash. I’m taking part in Joy Nash’s big promotion for her new book Immortal: The Crossing.

Writing a Series with Josh Lanyon

I Spy Something BloodyMy special guest today is author Josh Lanyon. Josh writes for several publishers including Loose Id and MLR Press.

I read one of Josh’s books early this year, enjoyed it very much, and since I’m a huge mystery fan, I immediately went off to download the first in Josh’s Adrien English series. I loved this story so much that I purchased the rest of the series and read them one after the other. That’s the great thing about discovering a new author with an established series–being able to enjoy all the books without waiting!

I’m now eagerly awaiting the August release of Death of a Pirate King, the fourth story in the Adrien English series. And all this brings me neatly to the topic of the day–writing a series.

Interview and Sale.

I have a new interview up at Sensual. You can read it here.

And in writing news I’m delighted to announce I’ve sold a book to Samhain Publishing. Tea For Two is a hot contemporary set in London and is the story of a Hayley, a woman who reads tea leaves and finds love along the way. I’m really excited about joining the Samhain family. Actually, color me very excited!!

I’ve been reading a lot of m/m lately. I’m not sure why, but I’ve felt in the mood to read this genre. My favorite out of all my recent reads would have to be Josh Lanyon’s Adrien English series. Adrien owns a bookstore specializing in mysteries and has a habit of stumbling over dead bodies. His lover is a cop called Jake who is firmly in the closet and has no intention of coming out - ever. The books are not erotic and there aren’t many love scenes. They concentrate mainly on the solving the mystery and the relationship between the two. I’ve fallen in love with Adrien. Actually, I like Jake too. This is a seriously good series, and quite frankly, Josh needs to write faster because I’ve just about read all his books now. I highly recommend Josh’s books.
