Fish and Ghosts Book is done. Put a fork in it.
Edits later. First, sleep….coffee… a book cover for Black Dog Blues…some edits there and um… did I mention sleep?
Really.
Love this boy. And he just kicks ass in concert.
So I’m reaching the end of Fish and Ghosts. I’ve just the epilogue to do and then well blurb and synopsis. I’ll let it sit for a bit before editing so in the meantime, I’ll be working on that steampunk short to submit to DSP’s anthology.
Steampunk is an odd genre. It requires a delicate balance of science and non-contemporary voice. A certain mood needs to be set and since this is a short… twelve thousand words max… I won’t have much time to do it. But I think it can be done. Just has to be layered through.
And somehow have two guys meet and fall into something in that short of a time. *grins* Which also can be done.
So, what do you like about steampunk? Or dislike? What draws you to the genre? Or have you not read any and are curious? Or not curious? Let me know 😀 I’ve got a day or two before I start tinkering with my brain and kick into the gears.

And the performance itself….
I want to thank Lou for taking over for the past couple of days. If you’ve not read through her posts, please go back and enjoy what’s she’s laid down on the blog. And the Giveaways ROCK! *grins*
Wanted to wish you all a good morning and let’s go back to the basics. Some pretty boys doing some lovely things….

Dirty Day by Rhys Ford
This is a FREE Cole and Jae short to celebrate Dreamspinner Press’ Sexy Sixth Anniversary. Told from Jae’s POV and happens after Dirty Laundry. It clocks in at 3000 words. I got it right to the 3000 word limit I was given. And damn, I wanted to add more…. *grins*

Dreamspinner Press’ authors were asked if they could provide a kind of anniversary short story to celebrate their fantastic Sexy Six.
So… I tossed a Cole and Jae into the mix… from the poll you all took.
Here’s the link to the blog where the stories are being posted.
Please stop in and keep tabs on what is being launched because there are some damned smexy stories coming from the DSP stable and damn the talent there rocks.
Here you go…. Cole and Jae’s Dirty Day.
I love vampires. I hate vampire books. *nods* Yeah, bear with me. Nothing is new. Nothing is different and sometimes, it just gets too… Wuthering Heights. But dudes, this is Lou Harper and there’s a twist and some humour to this one.
Enter the Giveaway. I’m not because I just flat out bought it. *grins*
I’ve never been a big Superman fan. Okay I watched Lois and Clark because you know… DEAN FUCKING CAIN but the hero himself… meh.
Too clean. Too righteous. I like my heroes a bit… grungy.
But hey, this Superman looks pretty decent. 😀
This pretty much sums up how I feel about readers. This is a sign I could use on my blog for readers. Authors should remember this and hold it fast to their hearts. Readers are the most important visitors to our works. They are.
So thank you, guys. Really.
