We all love our Saturdays and most of us have our routines. Mine is to visit the library and the supermarket, maybe enjoy dinner out. In my latest release Miss Good Samaritan (April 2012, Rebel Ink Press) Robin Cavanaugh’s ordinary Saturday goes awry. After visiting the Laundromat and heading toward her hair appointment, she’s […]

Since I’ve been out promoting and talking about my new series, the Minivan Mom Mystery Series, I’ve been asked about being a man and writing mystery for women. There was a saying I’ve heard dozens of times about how behind every great man is a greater woman. Well, I’m the proof in that one, especially […]

Searing Kisses, better than sex? Thank you for hosting on Books–n-Kisses, Kelly. A kiss can be either drugging, or well, disgusting. Depends on who is doing the kissing. I believe chemistry between the two people plays a big role. What about if it’s the first kiss between two people? Imagine the anticipation and anxiety wondering […]

Guest blogger: Betty Midnight
Please welcome Betty Midnight to the blog: Why are werewolves just so damn sexy? I get offered this question every now and again and each time it’s given to me, I sort of freeze. There’s an obvious surge in the creatures who used to be more horror than objects of lust, people exploring some […]
Guest Bloggers: Leia Shaw & Cari Silverwood talk about 31 Flavors
Writing the Perfect Romance There are any number of reasons why us writers choose to pen a romance – fun, a desperate need to tell stories, a need for more alpha males in our lives, money…Leia and I had all those and one extra one. So many of the romances out there are well, romantic. […]

Show, Don’t Tell Who among us has not seen those dreaded words in the margin of a manuscript? It sounds so easy. “Show, don’t tell. ” Those of us who are, shall we say, of more mature years, are programmed to tell. Our parents and grandparents told us stories. Charles Dickens and Jane Austen and […]
Guest blogger: Elise Whyles
Books-n-Kisses is pleased to let Elise Whyles take over the blog today. Finding a happy place with a writing partner. When I came up with the idea of a series about mythical beings I never believed it would ever get as large as it did. I was thinking four books maybe, but I knew I […]
