You need to read a blog that will send you over the edge. It sure did me! Boogie on over to http://www.bethanderson-hotclue.com/blog/, that’s Beth Anderson’s blog written by Hotclue, an amazing woman if I ever met one.
Her latest entry is not only funny, but it will teach you a lot about critique partners. While you’re there browse through her site for some very educational info on writing.
Have a good time! I sure did.

I am ecstatic to tell you all I met my contract due date with Triskelion Publishing. Lonnie Heats Up has been submitted and received by my editor! It’s a relief to be completed and now I can sit back and relax until she sends me the edits. I can also come back and blog with you now that I have fulfilled my commitment.
Lonnie Heats Up is the second book in the Magnificent Men of Munich series. Be sure to check out chapter one of Teddi Turns On for the premise of the series. Better yet, head over to www.triskelionpublishing.net and pick up your own copy. The reviewers and readers tell me they love it.
To celebrate, Studs and I went to our favorite haunt, Shannon’s Irish Eatery, and listened to great Irish music performed live, yes folks I said live a rarity these days in our neck of the woods, by New Element. Lou and Sharon, of Dolly’s Mammary fame, were there. They’re a fun couple to spend time with. Someday I hope you all get to meet them.
Lou brought up two interesting questions about our world today so I’d like to ask you your opinion.
1 - Why is it that today so many women expose their bodies and erase the mystery for men?
2 - Where have all the ladies gone?
Have a great week-end!

Today is great. I’m still on a high from my first chat last night at Coffee Time Romance. Many old friends showed up along with a host of new people. Thank you for being there. All of them helped me get over the jitters in a New York second. We had a blast joking and commenting on my excerpts. The hour passed much too fast.
Susan, the moderator, and I agreed to give away two free copies of TEDDI TURNS ON and bars of honey soap. The lucky winners were:
RAM from Singapore
Jeanne from the U.S.
Please remember ladies to send me your addresses so I can mail the prizes.
Have a great weekend.
Sloane
I’m so excited! This Thursday, August 24, I’ve been invited to chat with Lise Fuller at Coffee Time Romance at 9:00 PM EST. The link is http://www.coffeetimeromance.com/Chat.html.
We’d love to have you join us!
All my best,
Sloane
This is a great week. I’ve completed the synopses for books 2, 3,and 4 in the Magnificent Men of Munich series. They’re now in the hands of my kind editor who was very happy with my proposal for books 2 and 3. Still haven’t heard from her on #4, but I have everything crossed that’s possible.
The three remaining books lead Lonnie, Francine, and Isabella on a terrific journey of freedom and love as they let go of their fears with the help of Heicke, Rhineholdt, and Wolfe. You really should read TEDDI TURNS ON to learn about the people I’m referring to here.
Our three heroes also find a new world as the ladies teach them there’s more to life than living in the past and one night stands.
Now for even more good news. Studly and I are off on a well deserved three week vacation in Europe. Studs is making the supreme effort to savor as many beers and wines he can swallow while I research more data for the above mentioned books. Ya gotta love a guy who will go to such lengths to make his woman happy.
We decided to create some fun for you as well. Please sign up for my quarterly newsletter. When we return two names will be drawn. The lucky winners will each receive two bars of the honey soap featured in the Magnificent Men of Munich series, a bath scrubby, and a free copy of TEDDI TURNS ON. The drawing will be held August 15.
Enjoy yourself while we’re gone!

The Passionate Ink BIAW ended better than I had hoped. Friday I was ecstatic to post my accomplishment as 2082 words. It was a struggle at times, but I did it. My goal was 8000 words and I surpassed it by 14. Not a world record, I know, but damn I feel good about.
My new novel has direction, strong sexual tension, and two characters I am falling in love with. Don’t worry, Studs, you’ll always be number one. Does anyone have an opinion as to when they should make love for the first time? Should it be love? Or should they get down and dirty?
Today the writing has been so due to other unavoidable commitments. My calendar is clear for the rest of the week and I will produce!
Have a great week and I’ll be back Friday!
