So Pieces of Stronghold has been out for a week (see previous blogpost if you missed that) and so far everyone seems to have really enjoyed it, which makes me happy =) I certainly had a lot of fun writing it! I'm taking a break from Stronghold now, as I often do in between books, and starting a new Victorian series which is a spin-off of The Domestic Discipline Quartet and will be called Bridal Discipline. Unlike the DD Quartet, each story will only have two POVs and each have a HEA ending, so the books will all be self-contained. I got hit by the writing bug BAD and have been writing like a madwoman since last week. Already am working on chapter 4 of the book. I have no idea how long that will continue, but I'm riding out the wave as long as possible!
Anyway, if you're finished with Pieces of Stronghold and are looking for something else to read, there are some recent books just come out =)
Toria Lyon's second book, Playing Around, in The Scarlet Series is out. I read the first one, Playing for Keeps, and enjoyed it so I'm looking forward to digging into this one =)
Muffy Wilson, one of my fellow YSD authors, recently released The Para-Portage of Emily, an erotic romance with themes of love across time and a little bit of a supernatural bent. It kinda reminded me of a gothic romance, but without the bad guy. It's the first book of a quartet and the writing is quite beautiful.
Another YSD author, Pablo Michaels, also has a recent release if you're into MM stories =) Affairs of Men's Hearts.
As for me, my fingertips have been burning up on writing the first of the Bridal Discipline books, Philip's Rules, I haven't gotten started on anything for Lit yet, just because I've been so in the mood for the BD book, and when a mood like this hits, if I don't use it I lose it. I can't remember the last time I wrote almost four whole chapters in a week.
I did also manage to finally finish the edits to Venus Transcendent this weekend, so if you re-download it from wherever you purchased it, it will be better edited. I also submitted it to YSD for their servers and paperback production. Once it's out in paperback I'm going to have some kind of giveaway for a full Venus Desiring autographed set =) I'm also planning on bundling the quartet for the e-readers as soon as I can sit down and do all the tedious work necessary for that.
That's what's happening in the world of Angel right now... also hoping to get the website up and running by the end of this month, which will mean I can also get the newsletter up and running! =)
Hi, I just finished devouring Pieces of Stronghold and as always amazed at the talent, humor, and thought that you put into your stories. I've been a fan since I found your original Venus story on Lit. Thank you for continuing this series and I look forward to your next installment in the fall.
ReplyDeleteaww thank you so much!!! I'm glad that you're enjoying the continuing series =) It was thanks to the Lit readers who wanted Venus School made into a book in the first place that started this whole thing, so thank you! I'm always thrilled to hear that people have followed me from the site to the e-books =)
DeleteThanks for the mention! Sorry I haven't commented earlier, I've had a lot on with the op and other stuff. Hope you enjoyed NOLA (?). Squeeb is adorable. Tx
ReplyDeleteI'm a little obsessed with Squeeb =) Hope you're doing well with recovery after the op! NOLA was awesome, although I want to go back sometime and NOT party and do all the historical/cultural stuff. It's an awesome city. =)
