Another Project Down!

YES! I've finished another project. So far 2011 has been productive, and I am liking it!

I've already completed two short stories and finished the first round of edits on FALLING HARD, my 2011 Carina Press release. (The next round just arrived in my inbox this weekend, so there is still work to be done!)

This last project, however, was interesting. A distinct shift away from my usual fare--since there is not a kiss, lick, or even a longing look to be found. It's the story of a gentle, civilized female werewolf taken from her home and plucked down in the middle of a dangerous game where the one left standing at the end is the only one coming out alive.

It's for a horror anthology that I heard about and an idea came to me. After that, I couldn't NOT write it.

I'm not sure if I'll write more of these really dark stories, but it was definitely good to stretch the creative juices, and I think it turned out really well. Hopefully, I'll be able to celebrate its sale soon! Cross your fingers and wish me luck. :)

What has everyone been up to this winter?
