Okay, haven't been here much lately because X is ex to me, but I have to ask where the latest 'sex scenes must further the plot' discourse began? Shoot me a clue, #Romancelandia .

The free speech absolutist strikes again!

Hey, I have 3 Bluesky codes up for grabs. Preferably you are someone I've interacted with and thus kind of 'know' or you're friends with a mutual.

Get while the getting's good, I say

Not sure she's clear on humility, either, TBH.

Maher really looked at Drew Barrymore and asked her to hold his drink.

Fuck Bill Maher and the horse he rode in on.

I have two unclaimed Bluesky codes knocking around for any of my mutuals who want to escape the Elongated Muskrat...

Gott damn, this is a gorgeous. Give me ALL the illustrated covers like this one.

Hey, FIRST COMES MARRIAGE released today, everywhere except B&N where the page has just vanished (WTF?). They're looking into it but in the meantime, you can get my cinnamon roll/wife guy meets jaded (and pregnant) formerly 'kept woman' romance here: books2read.com/u/4New7z

I got a wild hair and decided to redo the covers for my Lords of Lancashire series since I have to reupload everything to update the back matter with First Comes Marriage releasing on Tuesday. Check out the video to see the new covers featuring art by Joanne Renaud.

I know I've been radio silent for a couple of weeks, but I've been feverishly getting the final files FIRST COMES MARRIAGE ready to upload to retailers. And I did it! Preorder now and you'll get it in just 4 days and change (9/5/2023). books2read.com/u/4New7z

I need autocorrect to stop changing 'its' to 'it's' regardless of context.

Wait, there's a hurricane heading for Southern California? This is what happens when the writers go on strike. WTF?

Possibly unpopular opinion:

Unless your clinch cover is VERY suggestive, I don't believe Amazon or Facebook are burying it or sabotaging your sales by putting your book in erotica jail. There are still LOTS of books w/ clinch covers, and they still sell well, esp in historical.

If you want to see a show about Leonard Bernstein, you'd be far better off catching a performance of Hershey Felder's one-man show, Maestro, than going to that movie. Don't know how often he performs it , but it's great and Hershey is Jewish to boot. Clip: youtu.be/Vz4HsvC0SUg

If you're an author and you love Eva Leigh/Zoe Archer's books, you truly can't go wrong bidding on this developmental edit offer from Nico Rosso, as he's her beta reading/plotting secret weapon! 32auctions.com/organiza...

Speaking of covers, look at the full print cover for First Comes Marriage that Beverley Kendall just finished making for me. I think it's absolutely gorgeous.

If anyone out there in #Romancelandia has the ability to do cover reveals, I would absolutely bid sky-high for that in the #romanceformaui auction because I want to do a nice, splashy reveal for the next two covers in my House of Uncommons series very soon.

Just suggesting!
