The Four Novels
Okay, so only one of the four novels is finished -- Red Moon Rising -- a sassy supense with a touch of romance -- but it is completely finished (if an artist can ever say that about any piece of art) and is going through the submission process. The others are in various stages of completion.
One is a sequel to Red Moon, working title, "Once in a Blue Moon". It's also a sassy suspense, with many of the same characters, plus a couple new ones. Writing it is comfortable and feels like home.
The third has a lighter, chick lit feel to it as, a real self-awareness journey, although it is also a suspense. The romance in that one is much more heated and central to the story theme.
And the fourth is a saga that I am aiming at Silhouette's new Epic line. It's also a self-discovery and growth story. It encompasses a woman's life from age nine, when she is sexually assaulted -- also the year she meets the hero -- to age 70 when she is lying beside the hero in their bed, reflecting on her life. Think "Notebook" with more tension and suspense. The working title is "A Dash in Time". Speakng of which, I should jet now myself and dash out a few lines. Ug. Sorry. Bad pun. No biscuit, Danita, no biscuit.

Ahem...Piper is a liar. She's reading my most recent book. And I think it's shocked and frightened her. LOL
Glad to see you're back to writing. But 4 wips? OMG. My head is spinning. I can't work on more than one at a time, even though I have like four others churning away in my brain.
