Gideon's Heart Is Under Contract...

And edits are back with my awesome editor, Callie, at The Wild Rose Press. I'm really thrilled about this! I have loved Gideon since the first book in Bound By Blood, The Legends. His role as Zacke's mortal partner was for me one of the most fun to write.

PLEASE MAKE WELCOME GUEST ROMANCE AUTHOR SKY PURINGTON!

Sky is a wonderful and dear friend of mine. She is also and excellent and
awesome author. I'm so happy she's here to fill us in on what's she's doing
and what comes next!





What is the first book you wrote and is it published?

The first book I wrote was Fate’s Monolith (Book I in Scottish Trilogy). Yes, it’s published.

What is one of the most favorite books you’ve ever written and why?

I would have to say Destiny’s Denial (Book II in Scottish Trilogy) because I related with it the most. A great deal of the heroine’s character was based on myself! (except her looks J) In addition, my grandmother made her first appearance in this one. No longer with me, it was wonderful reconnecting and remembering her in this novel.







How do you manage your writing, revisions, etc with day-to-day living?

*Smiles* With a lot of patience! My four year old keeps me pretty busy. I’m a huge goal setter and allow myself a certain amount of time to do certain things. For example, from 8-9 PM, I’ll promote to various groups, etc. From 9-10, I might edit. From 10-12, I’ll write. The schedule varies but I find I get more accomplished if I pace myself and not get overwhelmed.

What inspired you to pick up a pen or a pc and start writing?

Well, I’ve been writing on and off since I was a child. What made me finally commit to writing a novel? A trip to the Scottish Highland Games here in New Hampshire. There I discovered my clan─the Brouns─had been intermarried with my husband’s clan (Lamonts- ancient Gaelic name- Mac’Lomains) for over 300 years during the medieval period. As you can imagine, this sparked a story idea about fate, destiny and true love.

Where do you see yourself as a writer five, ten years down the road?

#1 Best Seller on Amazon Kindle, B&N Nook and Sony Reader! *Grins* The way I figure it─though I love paperback books─Ebooks are indeed the wave of the future. I intend to be part of that!

What was the hardest basic writing tool you had to learn and why?

Hmm. Can I say, “Microsoft Word?” It’s what I’ve used to write everything. At some points I wanted to throw my PC out of the window. But it was never the PC’s fault, simply my many ‘oops’ while learning the ups and downs of MS Word.

What do you do to get your books out there for readers?

Everything! J An , ‘off the cuff list’ of some sites I utilize? Coffee Time Romance, Author’s Den, Author’s Meeting Place, Manic Readers, Amazon forums, Facebook, Myspace, my website. Other ways include blogging, putting book trailers up at Blazing Trailers and UTube. I stay active at all groups, including Ning and Yahoo. Provide a mailing list and created my own Yahoo Group (If you join my group today you’re entered for a chance to win a $10.00 gift certificate to The Wild Rose Press! (Here’s the link.. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/skyromance/). I send out bookmarks, etc to bookstores and libraries. Try to schedule as many local book signings as possible. There’s much more but…I want to leave some space on your blog!

Tell us a bit about you before you became a writer and now.

Before I became a writer, I kept busy working for Weathervane Seafoods doing everything from waitressing to managing. I guess you could say the restaurant business is in my blood. I love meeting new people and making friends. I met SO many wonderful people over the years working for them. More characters than you can possibly imagine! In addition, I took five years worth of correspondence writing courses while working.

What do you have planned for your next book?

My next book is actually the second novel in my newest trilogy. This trilogy follows three modern day guys─ paranormal investigators all─who become part of the most intense haunting ever. They’re victims of an ancient curse set upon their ancestor, Callum. All three tales tell of a different house that traps an evil creature. The first tale (The Victorian Lure (Callum’s Curse: The Beginning) is Leathan (Scotsman) and Dakota’s story. The story I’m working on now, working title The Georgian Dimension (Callum’s Curse: The Years Between) is Devin (Irishman) and Isabel’s story.

If you could rewrite one book, which one would it be, and why?

It doesn’t have to be one you’ve written. Truthfully? Probably, The King’s Druidess (short lead-in to Scottish Trilogy) Why? This story ties everything in my Scottish Trilogy together so it’s important. I’d probably make it a tad bit longer.

If you could go one place inside your book, be with one hero, etc, where and who would it be?

Lord, didn’t I mention I was half in love with Ferchar, the hero from Destiny’s Denial (Book II)? Ferchar is named after the original recorded Chieftain of the Mac’Lomain clan in Cowal, Scotland 1199. Naturally, I transformed him. Picture this...tall, lean muscles, black hair, light blue piercing eyes, wears a tartan…sighs, swoons! I suppose more than anything it was his attitude─blunt, brooding and dwelling in his past. I know, doesn’t sound that appealing…but it is. C’mon, tell me you haven’t looked twice at that strong, ‘says it like I see it’ guy with issues? And─ in this case─ the right woman comes along and the ‘Ferchar’ his family once knew and loved slowly resurfaces. Where would I be with him? Oh, that’s easy─in the highland cave behind the waterfall on the night of the traditional handfast. I’m doomed to make love to him. I shouldn’t. But I didn’t run run fast enough to avoid such an outcome. Yet I burn─yearn. I want this. No. How could I? Ferchar’s magic ignites. He will have what he desires. You guessed it…I’m putting myself in the shoes of Caitlin!

Is there anything you want to say to your readers?

Yes! Sylvan Mist (Book III in Scottish Trilogy) will be released on June 18th. It’s a huge day for me in that I’ve been waiting three years for this. At long last, my entire trilogy comes to life. Pop over to my website to learn more. Here’s the link…http://www.skypurington.com

Please Join me!

PLEASE WELCOME ELIZA MARCH...

Eliza is a dear friend, and a wonderfully talent author or erotic romance!!!

Hi Faith, thanks for asking me to stop by. I once visited Santorini... not quite like the story that erupted off the pages of this book. The beautiful island in Greece makes one think of all kinds of possibilities and here are just some.

SULTRY SANTORINI SUNSETS is available today from http://www.bookstrand.com/sultry-santorini-sunsets

[Menage Amour: Erotic Menage a Quatre Fantasy Romance, M/F/M/M, sex toys]

Three thousand years ago, six warriors of Atlantis pledged themselves to the Goddess of Sensuality, exchanging emotions for heightened senses and immortality in order to protect what remained of their lost world. Three went in search of their lost emotions and became unredeemable. The others maintained their honor with help from their leader, and they all became the Gods of Atlantis.

Mira fulfilled her responsibilities, denying herself pleasure for years, but she's escaped. On Santorini, she takes three men as lovers who help her make-up for lost time. When emotions start infiltrating the men's souls in her presence, they discover she's the one woman capable of returning their emotions. Now they must convince her to share their love and lives for all eternity. Will she believe their fantastic tale and trust in their love enough to make the final commitment? Will she accept immortality, their bond, and their love?

Follow the link above for a short but sizzling hot excerpt. I hope you enjoy yourself.
