Vampires, Werewolves, other Were-beings Fairies, Witches or a Time-travel?

Like I said last night, I just got back from the RWA conference in Atlanta and I'm Jazzed. There are a lot of great publishers and editors out there who are looking for paranormal romances. Since it's what I love to write, I'm going to go for it and submit to a few of them.

I have several ideas waiting impatiently for my undivided attention. My only dilemma is what do I write first? I have outlines for seventeen new novels. Ten of them are sequels to three of the books I've already finished. My problem is, which one do I work on after The Awakening? Anyone want to challenge me? I'm at page 113. Anyone think I can do it? I hope so. I work so much better when I'm under pressure.

Man of My Dreams, which is the working title for my new time-travel is near the half finished mark. I stopped working on that to start The Awakening. My editor wants it ASAP. I can't complain and I won't. Like I said I work better under pressure. Besides, it's a major compliment to get a phone call from your editor because she wants to tell you about how she kept forgetting to edit because she got dragged kicking and screaming into the work. Who in their right mind would complain about that?

Certainly not me.

I'm going to be running a contest on my site soon. If you're interested, please check back regularly as my site grows. Don't forget to visit www.extasybooks.com to see an excerpt from Virgin's Blood my new erotica \ vampire romance. If you haven't already visited my site, please go to www.tiannaxander.com.

Until next time.

News on my trip and work in progress

I just got back from the RWA conference in Atlanta, Georgia. I had a blast. I think everyone did. I met a lot of great writers there, published and unpublished. They were some of the nicest, down to earth people I've ever met.

On to business. I'm chugging right along on the sequel to Virgin's Blood titled The Awakening. Even with the activities of the last week I was still able to add forty pages to the manuscript. Though, to be honest, I did that in about six hours. I didn't have a lot of free time. Now that I'm home I plan to go back to it full time and finish it in the next couple of weeks.

With that said, I'm going to toddle off to bed since I've been up nearly twenty-four hours and get a little cuddle time with the hubby.

Check back often. I'll try to post here a few times a week to give news and updates and info on the contest I'll be running shortly.

Until next time.
