Kestrel is available!



Kestrel on the Horizon is now available in complete novel form!






Blurb: Nathanial Collins, captain of the Golden Horizon, seems to have everything a man could want, freedom to ride the seas, articles from His Majesty on hand, a new slave, and a great ship.


He has one thorn in his side, though, pirate captain Thomas Harrison of the Kestrel. Harrison is Collins' former captain and they parted on less than amicable terms.


Will Collins be able to make a life for himself and his new love? Or will the Kestrel be forever on the horizon?






I am interviewed

Circle Dark did an interview with me at their My Space.

I come off a little quirky but not totally insane.

Sexiest. Cover. Ever.

Glad Hands is currently in edits. But is that not the sexiest thing EVER?

The big truck, the hot men. Chuck making his move on Seven. Seven willing, but slightly resistant. Even the tat, kinda stretched as faded, as it would be because it was applied to Chuck when he was four.

Naomi and I are tickled pink

News!

Okay, I was totally off base
Kestrel comes out the 27th.
The Piercing toybox comes out Feb 20 and contains our story "His Wicked Way."

This will be readers' first look at Nick Harper and Jacob Plum, aka Torturo the Pain King, who have their own novel, a Turn of the Screw serial called Alive on the Inside, starting May 12!

Also, "Talk Like a Pirate Day," in which David and Robin do some sexy buccaneer role-play at the Lake of the Ozarks, got picked up as a Sip, but Torquere.

Anticipation!

If I'm not totally off base, Kestrel on the Horizon becomes generally available tomorrow!

I finished "Crossraods" for the Lovebites anthology. So I'm killing time by reading Chuck Norris facts.

My own personal Chuck Norris fact:
Chuck Norris has reached such a level of awesome, it requires a Corellian to accurately portray him. (Don't ask, it's a Fandom High joke)

A true Chuck Norris fact:
In Texas rest areas, the surveillance signs read "The Eyes of Texas are upon you," and have a stylized picture of Walker Texas Ranger.

First peek

I got the first peek at the cover art for Glad Hands. I can't share it, but it's very nice. I made some suggestions on personalizing it more to the book.

But this is going to be hot.
