There's a cat sleeping on my desk and Anah and I have two novels in edits right now. She's working on a deceptively simple change to the backstory and plotline for Runaway Star and I'm working on the edits for Pit Road. While these are both technically reprints, neither one is quite as easy as all that.

We're better writers now than we were when ( Read more... )

But things are getting done!

If you're not on our newsletter list, you missed out on some spiffy announcements yesterday:

We've already shared that Carina Press will be publishing Runaway Star and in the process allowing us to restart our planned Pandora Project series. We've also got a new editor at Carina, the fantastic Deb Nemeth, who has already ( Read more... )

It's a rainy day here, but still somehow lovely.

Anah and I explored a new story idea last night. Tonight, we have a date to videochat and outline it so we can start writing tomorrow. The Plan is that Anah will have finished with Trammel by then, so she'll work on the One Real Thing line edits and I'll work on the Trammel revisions while we write ( Read more... )

Anah and I hosted the Torquere LiveJournal over the weekend. It was a lot of fun! We talked about Slow Bloom and May/December relationships; Pit Road, Renovations, and Sensational and disabilities; and Pit Road, Renovations, and Runaway Star and working class heroes.

Oh! And we talked about our spiffy new newsletter, which will include news and ( Read more... )

Anah and I finished up the edits for "Heightened Senses", which will be out in the K9 Taste Test, and the seventh Pit Road story, Southern Comfort, came out this weekend, as well.

I'm working on the revision notes for Parallax, the second Pandora Project novel, and we're 26,000 words into Equilibrium, the TPE D/s story I mentioned earlier. (I'm ( Read more... )

Jeff Hammond is now a TV commentator for NASCAR racing, but he used to be crew chief for some of NASCAR's most successful drivers. Real Men Work in the Pits [Amazon|Barnes&Noble] covers Hammond's career from his time in the pits for Cale Yarborough to working as Darrell Waltrip's crew chief and beyond ( Read more... )

Anah and I finished up "Training Wheels", the eighth Pit Road story, and we've started work on Pandora Project: Parallax. We're 11,000 words in and expect the novel to be around 80,000 words total.

One of my many favorite lines from this story so far (this one has the good fortune of not being spoilerific): "Hey, now." Suddenly, Sully was right there in front of him, catching him around the back of the neck with one big hand and pulling him up short. "Settle down and look at me." When Denny didn't raise his eyes right away, Sully repeated ( Read more... )

The revisions of Becoming Us are complete, and Anah and I finished up writing the next Pit Road story, "Southern Comfort", yesterday. It's in edits with Anah to cut it down just a little, and then it'll be off to the editor.

We're working on the Pit Road story that comes after "Southern Comfort" -- "Training Wheels" -- now. I expect it'll be done ( Read more... )

Becoming Us is two scenes and a final edit away from being complete.

I've taken notes on my intersex ghost story, and outlined "Safe" so that I'll be able to write them later without going "OMFG WTF was the story?!"

I really need to get on the stick and work on "At the Corner of 4th & Honesty", since it's due in a month.

What else? Um. I have torquere_social ( Read more... )
