Well, I've managed to combine that in my hsitoricals as well. So maybe that's the best of both worlds?<br /><br />Marta--That cover model was chosen by the cover artist, Reese Dante. Isn't he just yummy? <br /><br />Beth--You're very welcome. Good luck!<br /><br />Louise--ROFL. I need more coffee too. I do write under another name, T. C. Archer, which is actually a collaborative name for myself as Shawn M. Casey and the very talented Evan Trevane. We write romantic/erotic sci fi, and romantic suspense and paranormal suspense. <br /><br />Lindsey--Thanks! I hope you love this one as well. <br /><br />Kara Lee--Wasn't that book so much fun? HA!! Evan and I had a great time writing Trouble at the Hotel Baba Ghanoush. Yes, you did see that My Highland Love is a series--the Highland Lords series. Right now I have two more planned, the first of which is finished in draft and features Kiernan MacGregor as the hero--he's the son of Marcus MacGregor, the hero of My Highland LoveTarah Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01387043773934181558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4502773361685989905.post-47401375435405657382012-09-30T18:34:10.165-02:002012-09-30T18:34:10.165-02:00I can't wait to read it.

Usually, about halfway or two thirds through the book, I have to do at least a basic outline so that I'm sure to tie up all plot points. <br /><br />Shannon--When I was twelve, I love Nancy Drew. By fifteen, my favorite book(s) were Zane Grey, with Riders of the Purple Sage as one of the top dogs. When I discovered Georgette Heyer--well, I was in heaven.

I have come to believe that everyone needs one good obsession. Life is far more interesting that way. Don't you think? <br /><br />ad0ffea6--Oh! I'm so glad you liked Labyrinth. I agonized over that book. Write m/m someday. I love good m/m! I honestly don't know where I would start. It's an intriguing idea, though, isn't it? <br /><br />Dusty katt--Dress up? No ma'am! That's one of the perks of not going into an office. On days I don't work my regular job, I oftentimes stay in my pajamas--at least until my daughter is due to come home. ROFL. I don't know why I care, she's as bad as I am. As soon as she gets home, she's in her pajamas. <br /><br />Chrystina--I write when I can. My schedule isn't set, so I plan my week down to the minute for my writing time. If I miss a day, I get very cranky. HA!

I had the bug to write for some time, but I had a toddler and was approaching forty, so really resisted. But when my first story--that's My Highland Love, btw--kept waking me up night after night with scenes rolling around in my head, I finally gave in and wrote my first scene. I was lucky enough to share it with a person who expressed sincere interest, and I was off and running. ROFL. I guess I was pretty much caught at that point.

ROFL. By the time I was 15, I'd read all of Zane Grey's books--I'm a Texas girl, so you know I had to read those. I then ate up Georgette Heyer who, as we all know, is the queen of historical romance. What made me choose the post Regency era for My Highland Love was the history behind the Highland Clearances. I really wanted to use that as a backdrop for Marcus' character. <br /><br />Joanne--Thanks so much! Any genre I won't write. Gosh, probably true erotica. I write erotic romance, but true erotica leans more toward the sexual experience and less on the plot. I like good erotica--who doesn't! But I write heavy plots, so would miss that. <br /><br />Scorpion Queen--Gotta love that name! I love Highlanders too!<br /><br />Cassandra--Oh boy, what inspires me most? ROFL. Life. It is just everywhere. <br /><br />Susanmp--I write in other genres, suspense and paranormal. I am a mythology lover, so paranormal was an easy move. I never thought I would write suspense, but it has crept into everything I write. HA! I really love the action in suspense.
