It's snowing in Connecticut and parts of New England. It's snowing in Central Park in New York City. Be safe and warm, everyone.

The Wandering Paranormalist

Fortunately vampires are portable. Such is the life of a wandering paranormal romance author. When you think about packing, cyber traveling is just so much easier. No coffins to carry. No suitcases of clothes for the shapeshifters and werewolves. No pots of gold to cart around. Actually I wouldn't mind that. But leprechaun gold is dicey at best. It tends to disappear just when you need it. LOL That sounds like all money these days. So where am I going?

June 9th I have an author interview with BK's Live Journal

If you'd like to drop and comment, that would be great. In the meantime, I'm packing my hair dryer just in case. The Vampires in Manhattan apparently need me to visit and that won't be a cyber visit. They are a lot of fun. I love walking in Battery Park at night with my own fanged bodyguard.

Writing Romance with Bite

Driving home from kickboxing class always assaults my senses. I enter the dojo in daylight and leave as the sun is setting. It's like entering a different world where all the rules have changed. I race to beat the sunset. Some primitive part of my brain remembers a time when it was BAD to be out after dark. Creatures with tortured cries ruled the dark and waited to devour an unfortunate who didn't make it safely home.

Yet when the moon shines on the sea, it's hypnotic. You can't take your eyes off it. It calls you and dares you to be embraced by its depths. So many late night swimmers have paid the price when some monster of the deep thought they were a late night snack.

It's the same with the eyes of a vampire. They draw you in and that glow warms your heart, fires your blood, and before you know it--BAM! You're a member of the undead.

Ah, that's why I love writing romance with bite. I love the moment when all the rules change. The moon is coming up. I think I'll take a walk on the beach. Want to join me?
