I've known about this little piece of news for a few weeks now and been dying to tell you all! It was hell to keep it bottled inside for so long, but now that I've got the all-clear, here it goes...

I just sold a story to Noble Romance Publishing!

I'm so, so excited about this! Noble is this amazing house that I kept hearing amazing things about, and I decided to take a chance and send in one of my mss titled Walking The Edge. The story overlaps a few genres, and though it can be classified as ...

Hey peeps

As an author, I'm always advocating authenticity in writing. This might mean tons of research, contacting people familiar with the 'world' and 'culture' you're writing about. It can also, as in the case of actors needing to portray a role, consist of some form of 'method acting' wherein you as the author literally become your character so you can translate her POV better on the page.

My point here is - there's a difference between simulating something (say, a set of circumstances) and...

Hello beautiful people!!

Sunday again, and I'm once more on the Six Sentence Sunday bandwagon.

I met so many great people last week and can only hope this will be the case again this time. I'm looking forward to trolling the SSS list and discovering lots of astounding gems among the authors and authors' works posted.

So, without further ado, here's today's tidbit. Last week, dipped into the heroine's POV, to shed some light about her thoughts on the hero. I'll turn the tables today, a...

Late posting today because of this *points at picture on the left*. It's now close to 5 pm here and I've been in front of my TV since 11 am this morning catching everything and anything about the wedding! After all the waiting, the hype is over and this goes down as a page being written in the book of history.

Absolutely beautiful wedding, no other words to describe it but perfect!

Back to business... no WIP progress per se this week. I have worked out some kinks about the 'future' for the prot...

Men... Need I say more? They fascinate us, horrify us half the time, make us wonder if there's something inside that skull...

Turns out there is something going up there!

Check out this artucle, which sheds some startling light on the male psyche. It's accessible , and is from Glamour.com, written by Andrew Lincoln. Some of this insight is funny, some is downright in ?!?!? mode, and some is downright sweet.

Enjoy, and discover!



15 Things Men Don't Want You to Know About Themby

I have recently been taken in by a show on satellite TV here, on French channel M6. The show is called Un diner presque parfait, which translates to, A near perfect dinner. It runs for 5 days every week, in one specific region of France every week. 5 strangers, decided by the production crew, meet and invite each other for dinner every day. Each contestant is then judged by the remaining 4 guests on the food, the table decoration, and the ambiance/atmosphere of the dinner. The one with the hi...

I'm back online. I apologize for not posting yesterday. The Internet was a hit and miss deal here most of Easter Monday (prolly a lot of people online!) and my pages weren't opening even after 5 minutes (after which they timed out and I had to refresh. See the dratted pattern here?)

Anywayz, I've got quite some stuff listed up for today.

Starting with - it's the 26th of the month, and I'm over at blog for my monthly Agony Zee slot. Check it out! I received queri...

Hey peeps

For a while now, I've been following this bandwagon where authors post six sentences of their WIP on Sundays. If I'm not mistaken, Six Sentence Sunday just celebrated its first anniversary. I thought this was a cool idea, to have a little tidbit up every week, so you guys get to see what we're working on.

Here's mine, and please bear in mind this is my first time at this so I'll prolly mess it all up. *grins*

The following lines are taken from my current WIP, a contemporary romance, an...

WIP meter up at 40% this week. Measly climb upward, but then I haven't been writing much in the past 7 days. With us being away for the weekend, it took a moment to get back to normal, and then I had contractual work coming in that used up my time and resources. Not to mention that I also have to study for the exam which is less than a month away.

I also hit a stump on the story because the scene I needed to write required some detail-specific information and I had to go scour for that. Thank ...
