Can you believe it’s only one week until “DAISUKI.” will be out on the virtual shelves? Oh my God, I am so not ready. My brain hasn’t wrapped around the fact my #1 dream of being a published author will come true next week. (Next level of that dream? Making a nice living off it!)…

Friday Flash: “Daisuki.” Scene Excerpt

June 30, 2012
| 2 Comments
| Categories: CROSS//, Daisuki, Excerpt, Friday Flash, Novellas

This week’s Friday Flash is brought to you by “DAISUKI.”, the F/F romance novella I’ve been working on this month. This is one of the shorter scenes, so I’m able to post it in its entirety.  No real warnings this week, other than some thin allusions to sex. Otherwise, don’t think there’s anything. —-            …

Friday Flash: The Ninety-Seventh Time

June 9, 2012
| No Comments
| Categories: CROSS//Rebirth, Friday Flash, Promotion

Today’s Friday Flash is brought to you straight from my WIP, CROSS//Rebirth. It’s basically the same scenario as my campaign flash piece “The Fortieth Time“, but obviously about 50 lives later. Basically, for context, Danielle is trapped in her hidden memories and is having a flashback to her (literally) previous life. You’ll notice a loooot…

“Do you love me?” “No.” “Is it because I’m a man?” “No.” “Do you love her?” “No.” “But didn’t you tell me you wanted to get engaged to her?” “No.” “Are you just saying that now to soften the blow of not loving me?” “No.” “Are you sure?” “No.” “Aha, I got you!” “No.” “You’re…

Hey everyone! Time to bust another one of these out. (What? It’s called “flash” for a reason, right?) Well, I had intended to write Red Scare, Pt II for this week, but it’s turning out longer than I anticipated and I don’t have enough time to finish / edit it. So instead you get this…

Totally spaced out writing something this week, what with all the editing going on in my personal life, ha! So here, seems only fitting that I should give you an excerpt from the files this week. Decided on a little of the usual confrontation between Danielle and Miranda because it’s fun. (Also, brief note, as…

What do I do with this tho. (What? It’s Friday here!) This is my entry for the Second Campaigner Challenge, which is kind of the King of Clusterfulandia. Basically, a 200 (oh excuse me, LESS! So I shot for a nice 199) word flash fiction based on five different prompts. Oh Lord. (I’m not listing…
