A humorous erotic paranormal fantasy

Once upon a time, there lived a man with five rambunctious daughters. They were an average American farming family except for one minor detail. The man was a warlock, and all of his daughters were witchlets—half witch and half human.

Rick Carr and his friend Booey came to Toppers Cove seeking employment at the seafood plant. For Rick, it was a chance to try and re-establish roots on the eastern coast, hoping to make a life out here. He never expected to meet someone like Kimberly Blakeney. One glance, and he knew he was falling in love until he discovered that she was a witch. A real witch. But despite that revelation, his feelings didn’t change.

The only problem was, before he could sweep her off her feet, he first had to pass what she called a “sex hex test” to prove they were meant to be together. Rick didn’t mind, but what he didn’t realize was that his best friend wasn’t about let him fall under her spell...even if it meant taking drastic measures.

Wow! Two releases?

Wow!  It looks like I'm going to have TWO releases in October with Red Rose Publishing!

Rhythm and Boos is scheduled to release October 14th.  Rub My Pumpkin, book 1 of Tales of the Blakeney Sisters, is definitely a Halloween story, so should be releasing in October as well.

Anyhoo, here's the cover to R&B, and I'm psyched!

Still more "questionable" catalog item.

First, there's the name.  Suble butt?  Really?

Secondly, here's the pitch:  Sometimes you just con’t control a gassy stomach...and what may happen as a result. But relax—the pressure’s off when you’re protected with these antimicrobial pads. Just stick to your underwear (even thongs) and go about your day. If you make a slip, don’t worry—the odor is neutralized by the activated carbon layer, and you’re spared the embarrassment. Great for travel, office or anywhere you’re in close quarters!

Okay, they'll control the SMELL, but what about the SOUND?

Tis the season!

If you're anything like me, this is the time of year you're being inundated with a gazillion catalogs in the mail, tempting you to spend the majority of your money on the internet.  Since I live out in the somewhat middle of nowhere, internet shopping is easier than spending the gas, time, and energy going to the mall.

Most of my catalogs are pretty cool.  Nothing racy except for a little underwear or nightgowns - or so I thought. 

Get a load of this item.  It makes you go WTF?  It's called a Kush.  Here's the description:  Firm yet lightweight, the Kush™ Bosom Sleep Support makes side sleeping more comfortable, especially for the woman with C cups or larger. Once you try it, you won’t want to sleep without it!

My mother had overly large bosoms.  She wore a sleep bra.  This thing looks like...well, you get my drift.

Statistics

For every 50 men, one is well-endowed in both length and girth.

For every 50 books, there is one written by an erotic romance writer who has a very well-endowed hero.

Coincidence?  I think not.

Growing vegetables

A beautiful woman loved growing tomatoes, but couldn't seem to get her tomatoes to turn red. One day, while taking a stroll, she came upon a gentleman neighbor who had the most beautiful garden full of huge red tomatoes.


The woman asked the gentlemen,"What do you do to get your tomatoes so red?"

The gentlemen responded, "Well, twice a day I stand in front of my tomato garden naked in my trench coat and flash them. My tomatoes turn red from blushing so much."

Well, the woman was so impressed; she decided to try doing the same thing to her tomato garden to see if it would work. So twice a day for two weeks she flashed her garden hoping for the best.

One day the gentleman was passing by and asked the woman, "By the way, how did you make out? Did your tomatoes turn red?"

No", she replied, "but my cucumbers are enormous."

There's something about a man in uniform.


While looking for Labor Day pictures, I found this neat blog with some fantastic hunks in uniform.



Thanks to Kittylicious.

Happy Labor Day!


Not only do I not have to go to work, but it's one less Monday to stress over!

Yay! New Contract!

YAYYY!  I finally heard back about my series! RUB MY PUMPKIN, Book 1 of "Tales of the Blakeney Sisters" just got contracted, so now it's off to finish book 2, TICKLE MY CANDY CANE.

More details to follow!

What's happened to Fictionwise?

What has happened to Fictionwise?  First they stop offering their bonus points (micropay rebates), which I can understand.  You don't make money by giving away books for free.  But why does it no longer have the "liquidity" it used to have?  At any time you could go onto the site and search for your book, and see where it was currently ranking in sales, not to mention reviews.  Now you have to wait every Monday to see where it is.

The rebates I can see.  The liquid function makes no sense to me.

Remember that series I told you about a few weeks ago?

The one that came to me after a couple of months of not being able to write anything?  I got book #1 written, and the other 4 books somewhat planned out.  Well, during the interim while waiting for word back as to whether or not the book/series is contracted or rejected, I searched for some possible pictures so that I could give the cover artist an idea of what I wanted (yeah, I'm hoping for a contract.  :)

Anyway, I ended up making the cover.  And not just for book #1, but for the whole dadgum series!

I just hope all that time and effort isn't wasted.

Will keep you posted.

I don't know what's worse.

Waiting for that rejection for a book I submitted nearly 2 months ago (waiting time is 4-8 weeks).  Or waiting for that contract for a book I submitted nearly 2 months ago.

Accidental Penis

I stumbled on this site by accident.  You might want to stick it into your Favorites and check on it on occasion.  It has some hilarious photos of Accidental Penis.

I'm baaaaack!

Sorry I've been gone.  My computer went belly up, and as soon as I dished out the $$ for a new one, the telephone company decided to install new equipment.  When it rains, it pours, as they say.  But hopefully that's in the past.

Did 'ja miss me?

Go follow Freaky Facts NOW!

If you don't follow FREAKY FACTS on Twitter or Facebook, go do so NOW. Here's some of the very strange but very interesting tidbits they throw your way:

The freaky part of being immobilized and tied down, makes your sexual pleasure way more intense.

Humans and dolphins are the only mammals that have sex for pleasure.

Sex is the safest tranquilizer in the world. It is 10 times more effective than valium!

The Ramses brand condom is named after the great pharaoh Ramses II who fathered over 60 children.

Men often fantasize about a sexual encounter with 2 or more women at the same time. Only 9% will succeed.

"3 in every 5" women own or will purchase a Vibrator/Sex Toy in their lifetime.

Only 25% of women will experience a nerve shaking orgasm. Very few men are capable of giving a woman one.

The left testicle usually hangs lower than the right for right-handed men. The opposite is true for lefties.

More STD's are transferred through oral sex than sexual intercourse.

A woman's desire for sex may change with time, but overall they are just as sexual as men.

85% of all men lie about their Penis size. But, why lie...she's going to see how small it is eventually.

Studies have found that the greater the orgasm, means the deeper the sleep. Make sure you get YOURS!

Women are most likely to want rough hardcore sex while they're ovulating.

The female genitalia has four Erogenous Zones: The clitoris, the U spot, the G spot and the A spot.

Sexual Orgasms boost infection fighting cells in your body up to 20%, which helps keep you in good shape.

I came across this by accident.  It's just too funny for words.  Go check out The Naked Barbie Project.  It even includes instructions on how to make your own.

More sexy body jewelry

All this research into body jewelry has left me drooling.  I've seen these waist chains in abundance, and they can be awesome.  Hell, wear one of these, and the rest of your wardrobe could be WalMart clearance, and no one would notice!

Sexy body jewelry

Yesterday I mentioned body piercings, and it got me to thinking about body jewelry in general.  I've never seen this kind of "body necklace", but it's very beautiful.  Does it come with pearls as well as diamonds?

Hey, hunny!  Lookie what you can get me for my birthday!

What else do you have pierced?

I was at the mall last weekend, and I passed by one of those jewelry kiosks that had a huge display of pierced geegaws for bellybuttons and noses and whatnot.

My ears are pierced, but nothing else.  But I've noticed that in some erotic books I've read, the hero or heroine may have their navels, lips, tongues, eyebrows, and sometimes their genitals are wearing studs.

Is this a "fad" thing? Or are piercings becoming more prevalent in society and fiction?

Female condoms - Put a ring on it!

Saw this over on CNN.  It's the female condom, and you can get more information plus watch a video demonstrating how it's inserted here.

What I'm not quite sure about is, let's say you're getting ready to go out bar hopping with the girls, and hoping to get lucky later in the evening.  How comfortable would this thing be already inserted?  Because it's obvious from the video that it takes at least a good 30 seconds to a minute to get it properly inserted, and by that time the mood might be gone.  And that's not even considering the cost.

It's Mayhem Monday!


For those of you (like me) who were taught by our mothers that "the way to man's heart is through his stomach", here's a couple of cookbooks you can get to test that "theory".

Do you like men with long hair? Really?

I just finished a book where the hero had "long, golden hair" he kept in a ponytail down his back, and I realized you don't see long hair on men very often.  Not unless they're biker guys, and usually have beards of equal length.

Do girls really go for the long hair?  On the opposite end, how about a young bald guy like Vin Diesel?

(Oh, yeah.  Now I could go for bald if it came with THAT package!)

Interracial romances seem to be one-sided

My publisher is Red Rose Publishing, and it has become very successful with its line of interracial romances. But I've been keeping tabs on the types of romances that seem to sell much better than others. At first I thought the sales were linked to individual authors, but after watching the Top Ten Best Sellers list over on the RRP website, I've discovered that wasn't exactly the case.


Romances featuring a black woman and white man far outsell books with a black man and white woman.

What I can't figure out is why.

Another sexual group survey, with unusual results

Brown Sexual Group Survey Finds Men With Higher Fico Scores Are Studs In The Bedroom

Click the link above to read what the survey discovered.  I guarantee it's interesting reading.

Hmm, I guess there's a whole more to that Free Credit Score (dot) com stuff than what we've been led to believe!

No longer fluid?

Has anyone else besides me noticed that the book lists are no longer fluid?  The only time you see a change in position and number of reviews is on Monday, when they update and add new releases.

I miss the fluidity.

Is Twitter the modern version of the C B radio?

I'm not on Twitter, but I know many authors who are.  I work during the day, and I just don't have the ability or time to sit on the computer and read all the comments scrolling down.  My evenings are blocked out in three sections:  fixing dinner, doing chores (like un-loading/re-loading the dishwasher, or doing laundry, or any number of things, including taking care of hubby and the kids), and writing.  Notice which one takes the back seat.

I wish I could participate.  I wish I had more time to advertise.  But then I wondered how long something like Twitter would last.  I remember back in the 70s when C B radios were The Big Thing.  I had one.  So did my folks, my neighbors, my siblings, and just about every car and truck you passed on the road.

How long will Twitter last before something else becomes the Next Big Thing?  Remember when MySpace was THE place to be?  Now it's Facebook.  What will come next?
