IWSG Day and My Publications Together for the First Time
nniversary ISWG Day!
Posting: The first Wednesday of every month is officially Insecure Writer’s Support Group day. Post your thoughts on your own blog. Talk about your doubts and the fears you have conquered. Discuss your struggles and triumphs. Offer a word of encouragement for others who are struggling. Visit others in the group and connect with your fellow writer - aim for a dozen new people each time - and return comments. This group is all about connecting!
The awesome co-hosts for the September 2 posting of the IWSG are
Kate Larkinsdale, SE White, JS Pailly, Olga Godim, and Natalie Aguirre!
Every month, we announce a question that members can answer in their IWSG post. These questions may prompt you to share advice, insight, a personal experience or story. Include your answer to the question in your IWSG post or let it inspire your post if you are struggling with something to say.
September 2 question - Do you have a favorite character archetype you tend to gravitate toward in your writing?
I don't think I do? I tend to write romance and I tend to write sweet, fluffy romances (even if they get steamy).
The Writers on the Moon project is back on (I need to update all the info!), and Where There's Life, my story that's headed for the moon, is now available for only 99 cents!
You inherit a library card for the Library at Alexandria, and decide to try and visit.
What might you learn there, about your past—and your hopes for the future?
Where There's Life by Deniz Bevan
Summer Fire! I still have my review contest open!
ello, it's contest time!
Summer Fire is out in the wild
and the anniversary of publication month is coming up!
The Dirty Bits from Carina Press "give you what you want, when you want it. Designed to be read in an hour or two," these "microromances are guaranteed to pack a punch and deliver a happily-ever-after."
"'You know how it is with Canadians. We come alive in the summer.'
Ayse had resigned herself to an interesting—but in the end unromantic—trip visiting family in Istanbul. Great-aunts, touristy sites and endless meals…until she meets fellow doctor Hakan.
All tanned skin and defined muscle under his polo shirt, his kisses cut off her breath, making her dizzy. His every touch is a thrill.
Ayse wants all of Hakan at once. His sweet mouth, the heat of his body against hers, their heartbeats slowing together.
A holiday romance might give her some blazing memories come the lonely winter, but maybe, just maybe, the fire between them doesn’t have to be as fleeting as the summer.
For those times when size does matter. The Dirty Bits from Carina Press: quick and dirty, just the way we like it.
One-click with confidence. This title is part of the Carina Press Romance Promise: all the romance you’re looking for with an HEA/HFN. It’s a promise!"
Here's a lovely shot of Heybeliada, one of the Princes Islands, which features in part of the story.

A celebration of Druid's Moon release day, which is close. It's fun to go back and visit my blog tour, so many blogging lovely hosts!
Lyne Vanlith, an archaeologist who seeks a logical explanation to any mystery, discovers an ancient Druidic curse on her first dig.
And that’s even before a Beast rescues her from a monstrous sea-creature.
She drops a grateful kiss on the snout of the Beast, who transforms into a man, Frederick Cunnick, Baron of Lansladron.
Lyne is meant to be Beauty to his Beast—and break the curse forever.
Now both spellkeeper and monster are targeting Lyne. She must take up her legendary role, to defeat the curse and save Frederick—and herself.
Instead of logic, for the first time, Lyne must trust her heart.
