You like to read. So do I! There's plenty to read on this site besides just the fiction.

Everyone's gotta blog these days and I'm no exception! I tend to yak about what's going on in my life, with a lot of sidebars about writing, art and comics.

Come over to the travel section and see where I've been and what I thought about it. Hopefully 2010 will see another exciting destination. New England in the autumn, anyone?

Hey, there's some nice artwork in my art section. Give it a look-see!

The comics section contains one of the web's largest discussions about Wonder Woman. No, really. Come over and check out some of the indexes, like the costume history.

Then peruse the rest of the comics section for oddball characters -- most of whom are literally strong women.

ENTER TODAY:

Picture me like one of those TV-type book writers who hand over their manuscript to their friend and then pace behind them as they read it. Like them, I wait anxiously for them to finish and express an opinion.

So this is what I'm going to do: I'm going to give the first two people to post a positive review on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Cerridwen or Lulu concerning my books or stories (a review that shows that they've actually read the volume and aren't just BS-ing) a DVD of their choice from the PHE family of companies: Sinclair Institute, Adam & Eve, VideoMail, and AdamMail. That'll give you a nice choice of heat and subject matter.

The DVD must not be labelled "new," meaning it's got to have been in a catalog for at least 6 weeks (so I can take advantage of the employee pricing that kicks in then). All DVDs are double-therapist approved, so there's nothing awful in them. And all entrants will have to state that they're over 18.

Oh yeah: it'll be formatted for US DVD players. What is that, Region 1? A? Something like that. If you live in a place where that formatting doesn't work, we'll figure out a nice substitute prize instead.

So: Post your review and send me an email stating that you've just done so. I'll point you in the right direction to start choosing your DVD!

Two novels are now available in both
print and ebook format!

 

The THREE WORLDS
Adventure Fantasy Series:

Touch of Danger

A contemporary sf/f romance with superheroes. Heat: a medium scorch!

Lina O'Kelly, a psychic healer, finds herself running from terrorists across a deserted South Pacific island in the company of Valiant, the world's most powerful hero.

But Valiant's powers have been involuntarily leached from him, though they'll return eventually. Fortunately for him, this is the one day in his life when he'll be able to experience what it's like to be a normal man—if he can escape the terrorists and protect Lina. Unfortunately for him, Lina has an acute phobia to touch!

This is the first volume of the "Three Worlds" series that involves superheroes, galactic empires, psychic healing, the evolution of mankind... and romance out the wazoo!

Ordering info and a short (Cerridwen only lets us leak out so much!) sample are here.

Burgundy and Lies

My historical novel! It's a sweet romance. (For the uninitiated, that means: "no explicit sex.")

In Sixteenth Century France, the Renaissance is changing the world as well as opening it to every manner of new exploration.

Abbie is a hard-working master of the family's wine business, who lands smack in the middle of a moral quandary as she unwillingly finds herself in a false betrothal that involves switched identities. I hope you'll love her and the man she can only have if she dooms herself (and maybe him as well) to an eternity of Purgatory.

"Nothing to Lose": a short story

Being fat is hell. What if all that extra weight isn't your fault?

Four plucky dieters intend to find out if their problem doesn't stem from a more darkly mystical source than too many french fries and not enough time on the treadmill.

This satiric SHORT STORY skewers today's diet industry. Presented by someone who knows it all too well! The story runs about 7000 words, which translates to about 28 pages.
