GIVEAWAY: I’d like to give away a digital book of Perceived Love. To be in the running, just comment on one of my post today. I write m/m contemporary and paranormal romance, so if that’s to your liking then I look forward to reading your post!
What’s new for 2013? That’s the big question I’m asking myself now that December is winding down.
Every year, I have a New Year’s Day party with a few family and friends. We have a tradition where we write down our goals and I save them to be opened at next year’s party.
I love making goals for myself. I’m not that concerned if I keep them or not, but I feel if I write them down, then I solidify the thought form and I can make it reality if I chose to do so. Goals are not set in concrete and are meant to reevaluate and change along the way. I rarely meet all of my goals I write down. And some I really never wanted to accomplish!
For my writing goals, I ended 2012 with four published books and two new publishing houses. My contemporary books are mostly with Musa Publishing now and I have my new paranormal book with Ellora’s Cave. I didn’t get a chance to publish with Loose Id who has my shape shifter and vampire series and my coming out story, Out of Bounds. And I have For the Bite Of It with Liquid Silver.
Here’s a quick recap of my 2012 book:
John’s Match ““ Third book in the Woodland Village series
John Kramer discovers two guys humping on the hood of his Ferrari in the parking lot of the local gay bar. When he finds one of the pair alone and in a drunken stupor, John drives him home. To his surprise, the young man’s father is his new next door neighbor, Scott Marwick. Tempers flare when Scott accuses John of getting his son inebriated and taking advantage of him. John plans to never see the man again.
Then John’s boss flips out when he finds out the jerk next door is the Scott Marwick, a temperamental, but famous fantasy writer. The elusive author could save their company from financial ruin if they can get him to sign over his characters for a computer game. Ryan insists John befriend Scott, show him around the Village and get him to agree to a meeting.
The last thing Scott needs is friends. He moved to Woodland Village to forget about the past and to write. Since his partner’s death three years ago, he hasn’t written one word, and his agent, publisher, and fans are clamoring for the final book of his award-winning series. His life is spiraling out of control and he doesn’t know if he can finish his series. He doesn’t need the complication of love and he certainly wouldn’t associate his name with a computer game.
But when John’s life begins to fall apart, Scott must decide where his loyalties lie — with John or his principles.
Lover’s Trill – Let the musical magic of Vienna weave a second chance at love.
Rocker Leo needs a break. From the band, roadies, everything related to his present life. Wandering the streets of Vienna, he chances upon a poster that just might change his life. Andre Revele, renowned violinist, and Leo’s ex-lover, is performing in the city. It’s been years since Leo slipped out of Andre’s life, but he’s never forgotten their passionate love of music and each other.
Andre is shocked when Leo shows up backstage after his performance. He is angry, but he can’t walk away. Against his better judgment, he invites Leo to his hotel for a drink. Not sure what he wants from Leo, he knows what his body wants. A night of passionate sex leads to another, until he’s lost his heart to Leo again.
When Andre finds his trust in Leo tested, Leo must prove his loyalty by using their one common passion ““ music ““ to bind their hearts.
And as I already posted – Sins of Lust and Perceived Love.
Some goals I haven’t met, like publishing the second book of For The Bite Of It ““ but my co-author had other areas of her life that took priority. We have the first draft written and need to polish it before we hand it over to our editor. This will be one of my writing goals for 2013. I’ve also started a third book of my Chances vampire series that I have with Loose Id. I feel bad that I haven’t given them any new work since 2011.
I also might write a male/female paranormal book to change thing up. When you have a clean slate to write on, anything is possible.
Happy Reading,
Viki
