Penny may be wishing right now that she had let Bryce stay a little longer. No sooner had she closed the door on Bryce when crazy Rex came in wanting to talk to her. He now has her out in the bush and has decided that he needs to make her pure again. Yeah right!

This has taken a turn I was not expecting, so it is going to be interesting just where this all goes and how it turns out. It will also be interesting to see how Bryce reacts to this latest development.

Current word count 32,152 words and growing.

What’s Penny to Do?

Here’s an update on Runnin’ Wild’. Bryce came and visited Penny after not seeing her for almost two weeks. She didn’t say much to him the whole time he was there, he is trying to get her to forgive him for being an ass. Once he touches her her body goes up in flames and she decides to have him one last time and then she is going to cut him out of her life once and for all. Here is an excerpt from the last scene, no it’s not the sex scene this is just after he made love to her in her kitchen.

            He cupped her face in his hands. ‘Say something Pen, anything, tell me to fuck off but at least say something.’

            She pulled out of his grasp and straightened her cloths. ‘I’d like you to leave please.’

            He stood watching her, his heart racing, he wanted her again, right this minute, but he knew she would fight him this time and he wasn’t about to force her, no he’d leave but he’d be back. He’d return every day until she realised that she was the one he wanted to spend the rest of his life with. He pulled his clothing together.

            ‘I’ll go but I want you to know one thing, I love you.’

            She turned and walked to the door holding it open for him. ‘Good bye Bryce.’ Her tone was flat and empty, which was fitting because that was how his heart felt at that moment.

 

Word count at the moment 30,982, and I still have at least another 3 to 4 chapters to go, plus some layering. I better get to it if I’m going to ever get this finished.

Runnin’ Wild

  WE ARE ON THE MOVE AGAIN!          avataronehundrednine                   

  WOOHOO, we are writing again. Yes, Runnin’ Wild is on the move again. We haven’t made a lot of progress but we are writing again. Now all I have to do is keep it going. The words are flowing and I can feel it in my bones, we will get this finished.

I have to say all is not looking good for poor Penny, she has a stalker, not that she knows that just yet, but the time is getting close. If Bryce doesn’t do something soon to convince her he loves her he could be too late. Of course his brother is being the shit he always is, trying to divide Bryce and Penny, but it’s the stalker I’m worried about. This guy is a real fruit loop so there is no telling what he’ll do, plus Penny thinks this guy is a friend, boy is she in for a shock.

Well I’m feeling pretty good at the moment, Madame has had a long day and she has an even bigger one tomorrow, what with having to work on two novels, because now that I have her attention I’m not letting her go off and ignore me again. Oh and we have a chat to look up tomorrow on the Romance Divas, all about erotic sex. Just my cup of tea, well coffee really.

Okay we are off to bed. I’ll keep you posted on my progress.

Road Block

We have hit a bit of a snag in our writing process. Not major. well I don’t think it’s major. Seems we need to find another 2,000 words for both Sex Me Up and Merry Maids. Yes, most publishing houses have a minimum word count of 5,000. You would think we’d know that now wouldn’t you? 

So now the decisions is do we add more sex scenes? (I say YES, all the more the merrier). Or do we had a lot of layering and put in more description of the surrounds. Maybe we could do both.

Other than that little hick-up not a lot has been happening, mostly because Madame has been suffering from migraines (I wonder if that is my fault?), no it couldn’t be me, more likely the noise everyone is making up there in Head City Motel. I’m not game to tell her I have a couple more moving in, she has just had two more take up residence. The poor old chock will have a heart attack before we get any of these books finished.

Well I better go it sounds like she is on her way back.

See ya.

We’re In Editing Mode

The power that be has gone crazy with editing. We are pulling out all stops and going on a roller-coaster ride through the editing minefield. Up for editing on my watch are ‘Sex Me Up’, ‘My Merry Maid – Lady Georgina’ and ‘Always You’.

‘Runnin’ Wild’ seems to be still running around in circles at the moment, hopefully things will get a move on there soon. The first scene is going to need a complete re-write because we have decided we don’t like it at all.

Personally I’d just like to get the thing finished then worry about the re-writes and editing. But who am I decide such things I only get to come out and play now and then, to tell you the truth I think the migraine this week is still having side effects on you know who.

Anyway as soon as the editing and re-write are done I’ll post a short excerpt for you to read, mind it will have to be x-rated, can’t have the young ones reading this sort of thing.

Bye for now.
