  • Interview with Rachell Nichole

    BELLE BY NIGHT, the latest novel by erotica writer Rachell Nichole came out yesterday! I am faced with the daunting task of writing my first sex scene in STEEL BLOOD, so I invited her here to pick the expert’s brain a bit.

  • August Wrap-Up & September Goals

    August Wrap-Up: Goal: Write 10,000 words of book 3, STEEL BLOOD. Progress: A little over 5,500 words. Part of that was because I didn’t even start writing until August 18, and the other part was crippling uncertainty as to the way I was starting the novel, which is one of the hardest parts of any…

  • Monday bits and bobs

    I have a bunch of smaller tidbits for you today, so I figured I’d just combine them into one post. Last Friday, the lovely Shara White was nice enough to give STEEL VICTORY a belated shout-out on her blog over at Calico Writes. She was a fellow student during my time in the Seton Hill…
