Brain. Tired.\u00a0 Last week was crazy week-finished up taxes-shudder.\u00a0 Don’t ask.\u00a0 Taxes for a writer are almost always scary…we’re self employed, which means we pay.\u00a0 And this year, I’m paying in blood and gold.\u00a0 o-O.\u00a0 Well, almost.\u00a0 But it’ll be okay.<\/p>\n

Finished up an erotic paranormal romance-she’s a psychic, he doesn’t quite buy into it, but they are crazy about each other.\u00a0 It’s going to Ellora’s Cave.\u00a0 Also finished up book 3 in the Grimm series for Samhain.\u00a0 Right now, the title is Crazed Hearts and it’s Ren’s story.\u00a0 So…. anybody guessed who Ren is, or have any ideas?<\/p>\n

This next week, I plan on focusing more on the next book in my romantic suspense trilogy for Ballantine, getting the first three chapters together and polished for my editor so she can see them before I start focusing on the rest of the book.\u00a0 And there’s this strange contemporary I’m working on-I might finish that and submit it to Carina Press, see if they want it, dunno yet.<\/p>\n

Needless to say, my brain is shot, and it’s tired.<\/p>\n

So instead of thinking of something fabulously interesting to post about…I’ll ramble (which I did) and then do an open door (which I’m doing now).<\/p>\n

With an open door post, I just leave the door open for people to ask questions-simple things, I’ll answer in comments off and on through out the day, but it\u2019s possible I may reply in a separate blog post\u2026always need stuff for blog ideas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
