New Cover Art!!

I couldn't be more pleased with my new Cover art for my new erotic paranormal short story titled, A Pleasurable Cure for Death.

Here it is!

Computer viruses

Apparently there is a terrible computer virus being circulated as an email message titled postcard from hallmark. Don't open it.

The message that was sent to me about this goes as follows:

It is a virus which opens A POSTCARD IMAGE, which 'burns' the whole hard disc C drive of your computer.

This virus will be received from someone who has your e-mail address on his/her contact list. That is the reason why you need to send this e-mail to all your contacts. It is better to receive this message 25 times than to receive the virus and open it!

If you receive a mail called' POSTCARD,' even if it is sent to you by a friend, do not open it! Shut down your computer immediately. This is the worst virus announced by CNN.

It has been classified by Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever. This virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this kind of virus. This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information is kept.


My advice, best to avoid it.

Spam on Twitter

Somehow someone got a hold of my twitter info and started sending all my friends a quiz as though it came from me. Don't open that file. Apparently it has the potential to host a virus. I deleted my twitter account to stop it from sending anymore quiz invites but it certainly didn't waste any time sending enough by the time I got to it.

I don't intend to open a new Twitter account.

What I've been up to

I realize my word counter meters haven't moved in a little while. I am writing, honestly I am, but everything is in the final stages, involving tweaks, rereads, edits, rereads, and time. (More time than I have, apparently.)

I have a week of late evenings lined up in which I plan to check a few of these titles off of my to-do list and into the submitted pile.

I'm working on the second round of edits for "A Pleasurable Cure For Death", my short erotic vampire story that will be published through Cobblestone-press.

At the same time I'm putting the finishing touches on "One Night's Desire" the fairy tale anthology submission I'm intending for Samhain.

I'm also working on the fast paced, sexy, paranormal Rise of the Black Phoenix, under the name of Joaquin, with Keta Diablo.

For the time being I have set aside "Island of Three" but will pick it up again before I start on "Black Leather, Crimson Cheeks", a few short anthology stories on a submissions call, and "Tess' Trio".

Once that is all done and filed away I'm taking a break, a breather. (What I really mean is I'm going to start up on the four YA titles that are patiently waiting their turn to be finished and sent in.)

I have also been trying my hand at cover art design. I hope to submit a portfolio within the new year. I'm looking for a neato mosquito name for my graphic artwork. Any suggestions are welcome.

Blurb:
Kena Bass found the man of her dreams in Dan Madison, and she made sure those dreams came true. When good friend Elana suffers a personal crisis, Kena and Dan come to her rescue, helping her sort out her feelings. Passions and lust are cast away on a houseboat filled with Friends and Lovers.



Excerpt 2:
An hour later, Kena joined Dan on the helm. She carried a glass of iced tea. “Sure is hot up here.”
Dan took the drink and drank, taking in just under half.
Kena looked out over the horizon. Water stretched as far as the eye could see. “Do you think our love will last forever?”
Dan smiled and kissed her lips. “Always and forever!”
“Do you think we have an open relationship?”
His confused glare sent a silent warning, but he knew she wouldn’t consider it. “What do you mean by that?”
Kena stumbled. “I don’t mean we see other people or anything like that. It’s just I know you’re on the road a lot, and we have talked about you and me taking care of ourselves when we are apart.”
“Yes. And?”
“When you’re alone you look at porn to help you, and I’ve used porn when I masturbate.”
“Yeah…”
“Do you think of being with another woman as…?”
Dan appeared to try and find the right answer. “I guess when you’re looking at porn you’re fantasizing about that person. I would never physically cheat on you with another person. Where is this going?”
Kena put her arm around Dan. “When I masturbate, sometimes I think of another woman. I guess it’s just a thing that I’ve been curious about.”
“Really?” Clearly shocked by her statement, Dan stared at her.
“Does that upset you?”
“No, fantasies are just that, not real. If that gives you satisfaction when I’m not there, I have no issues. But really, where is this going?”
“I want to help Elana.”
“I’m confused. How…? What does that have to do with this conversation?”
Kena thought for a moment. “What if we, as in you and I, have sex with her?”
It seemed a light feather could’ve knocked Dan over. He stared at his wife, dumbfounded by the suggestion. “Is this a test?”
“No!”
“I can see it now. Dear Playboy, my fantasy started when my wife used sex as therapy for her sexually confused friend and asked me to have a threesome.”
“Oh, stop making jokes.”
“Kena, how will me and you having sex with her help her situation?”
“Elana told me when we were on the beach earlier, that when she was watching us, she couldn’t believe the passion. She’s never felt that passion with a man. I thought maybe if she has it both ways, it would give her a better perception.”
Dan shook his head. “What makes you think that she and I will have that kind of passion? Or, that me having sex with her would help her make a decision on her sexuality? Also, is Elana in on this?”
