I’ve become a Twitter addict. Anyone else Twitter? I’m blaming Dawn Montgomery who introduced me to the fun. Now, I have Twitter on my iGoogle home page and check it obsessively. If you do Twitter, feel free to come Tweet with me 🙂

Writing…wow, it’s been a rollarcoaster few months for me on the writing front. Lately I’ve had days where I can’t even write a sentence, let alone 1000 odd words, other days where I can’t NOT write and the words just pour from me. Currently I have two WIPs: Savage Transformation, the sequel to Savage Retribution, which follows Sydney Detective, Jackie Huddart (whom we met briefly in a Sydney Mansion in Retribution), and Bound In Defiance, which is a very very erotic demon-hunter meets vampire tale set in the paranormal underbelly of the Sydney suburb, Kings Cross (which will probably have a title change by the time the books in finished). Bound By Defiance is set in the same world as Death, The Vamp and His Brother (which is currently under consideration with a publisher – I’ll tell you more when I know *grin*). In amongst all that, I’m working on another Spaceport, called Spaceport: Heartfelt Scoundrel and The Sun Sword, an erotic sci-fi with a high body count that will be part of an antho with Dawn and Kim Knox (just out of interest, if you haven’t checked out any of Kim’s work, get your butt over here and buy something – anything, they’re all brilliant – now!).

Here’s a little (unedited) snippet of Bound By Defiance (anyone who’d like to take a look at what I’ve written so far and tell me what you honestly, think, just let me know *grin*)

He dropped his head, his mouth crushing hers with brutal force. His tongue plunged between her lips, battling with hers before Inari realised she’d parted her lips to his assault. She growled and bucked beneath him, desperate to free herself.
Navarr lifted his head and chuckled at her actions, his fingers dipping closer to her folds, his black eyes glinting. “Do you really want me to let you go?”
Inari stared up at him, the pulse in her neck a thumping canon.
No. She didn’t.
Shamed heat flooded her face and she turned her head to the side, the fire in her sex blazing hotter. Tighter.
“Oh, Inari,” Navarr murmured, his voice like velvet smoke on her flushed flesh. “You should not present me with such a beautiful neck.” His fist tightened on her wrist and Inari felt his weight shift between her legs. “Not when you smell like heaven and look like sin.”
Cool lips brushed the side of her throat, just below her ear, the contact followed immediately by the gentle flick of the tip of his tongue. Inari hissed in a breath, her sex constricting on a cock that wasn’t there, every muscle in her body snapping tight. She rolled her head, pushing his mouth from her neck with a sudden blow just as she jack-knifed her legs up around his hips and locked her ankles behind his back. “Bite me and I’ll pull your fangs out.”
Navarr looked down into her face and chuckled again, the action sending rumbles of sensations through Inari. “You say the nicest things, Protectorate.”
He plunged the hand between her legs deeper, dipping two fingers into her pussy at the same time as he claimed her neck with his mouth, his lips closing over the exact spot he’d tasted with his tongue and sucking hard.
Wicked pleasure tore through Inari – a traitorous response she could not control nor deny. She arched beneath him, driving her nails into her palms, the pit of her belly knotting, her nipples pinching hard. By the Powers, what was she doing?
Enjoying yourself, Protectorate. When was the last time you did that?
She didn’t know whom the thought belonged to. Her? Navarr?

I know it’s only a tease, but there’s not a lot I can share with you without giving away too much.

Would you like a snippet from Savage Transformation, too? (This is also unedited, so please excuse any typos)

Staring at her face, its pleasure-enrapt beauty mesmerizing, he smoothed one hand from her hair and stroked his fingers down the line of her spin. A shiver rippled through her body, pinching her already hard nipples into puckered tips. He smiled and tasted her collarbone with a string of lingering kisses. “Tell me.”
She shook her head again, licking her lips as she closed her eyes.
A little pulse leapt into life below her ear and he pressed his lips to it, breathing in her scent through his nose as he smoothed his hand from her back to her ribcage. “Tell me,” he ordered against her neck, punctuating each word with a tiny bite. “Tell me what you want me to do to you.”
Jackie’s breath quickened. Grew shallow. Ragged. “I want…” A low whimper fell from her as he moved his hand between their bodies and captured her nipple between his knuckles. She arched her back, grinding her sex harder to his impaling cock. “Oh…”
Marshall squeezed her nipple again, freeing his other hand from her hair and placing it on her shoulder. He pushed – gently but with undeniable command – creating space between them enough to cup her other breast and palm its swollen weight. “You want me to suck your nipples?”
The question was a statement. Before Jackie could respond, he grabbed her ass with both hands and moved into a sitting position, the sudden action stabbing his cock against the inner wall of her pussy.
She cried out, the sound raw and loud, her back arching, her sex taking him deeper still.

OK, so they’re both a little naughty. Trust me there is more to sex with both books, but I’m currently right in the middle of sex scene in both mss, so that’s what you got to see *grin*

What else? Oh, that’s right. Detoxing. Urgh. Has anyone detoxed before? I decided, after being stupidly fatigued and irritated that I needed a kick in the butt health wise. How did I chose to do this? The Lemon Detox Diet. I’m on my second day. Yesterday the day finished with a massive migraine so severe I threw up and cried for about an hour. Today, not so bad. I’m hungry, but better than yesterday, so I’m thinking this is an improvement. I shall keep you all posted (both here and on Twitter).

Which leaves me with Jess Dee. I meet Jess at ARRC this year (I hang my head in shame that I have not blogged about ARRC before this) and we hit it off immediately. Jess is fantastically wonderful and I would have been awfully lonely without her. She also introduced me to Jordanna Ryan, an incrediably wicked and lovely writer who made me blush. I. Never. Blush. Ever. Jordanna made me blush. She’s that wicked. But boy, did I like her *grin* Anyways, I met Jess and she is everything you’d expect a friend to be – with the added bonus of having a dirty mind. Her books are hot, hot, hot and Ask Adam is so hot I had to wake my husband after reading it. Yes, it really is that good.

I had lots and lots of fun at ARRC and I really want to say thank you to everyone I met who made me feel welcome. I can’t wait until the next one 🙂

Well, that’s me for now. I will be back with more. Promise.

No, really, I do.

Honest 🙂
