So a lot’s been going on with regards to my keyboard and Word. I just got notice that my latest submission to Dreamspinner Press has entered the editing queue (Poor Grace, my lead editor) and will be out in March.

The book is called “There’s This Guy” and it’s a bit of a departure for me in that I don’t actively murder someone in it. This isn’t a murder mystery, paranormal or urban fantasy. I was sort of “challenged” to write a contemporary and thought, okay… let me have a go at it. As one of my betas put it… Oh I can definitely tell you wrote it.

I’ll do a cover reveal once I get a blurb and a publication date but basically it’s about Jake and Dallas, two men who come at life from vastly different perspectives. Jake needs a bit of healing and Dallas is definitely someone to have in your corner for support.

This will be a standalone but let me tell you, it’s difficult not to murder someone. It’s just the way I lean. I went through all of the OMO is this going okay feelings and doubts I always have when writing so the book went true to form. It was a great challenge and stretched a few brain muscles that needed stretching.

So I was all… okay, ready for the killing again.

And instead, I’m working on Dim Sum Asylum. Expanding it to a full length novel. Which is a bit insane because you know, urban fantasy so I have a lot of room to work with.

Dim Sum is different from Kai in that Roku has sex. There’s sex on the page. Roku has relationships. Kai has to learn how to have them so the jumping off point is a bit different. I’m enjoying having the faerie in San Francisco in Roku’s world. The logistics of wings…dealing with INSECT WINGS… is a fun challenge. Clothing! Seriously, thank God the wings bend or I’d be dealing with transportation issues as well.

Lastly, I have started a Rhys Ford Reader group on Facebook. There are a lot of reasons it’s on Facebook and I hope that even if you aren’t on Facebook regularly, you consider joining. It’s an open group for another week then I’ll be closing it so only members can view, post, comment and participate in exclusive contests and ARC lotteries. I weighed all the pros and cons of where to put the group…and it had to be in one location for logistical reasons. I know I’d botch managing multiple locations and Facebook provided a good, solid and lockable portal.

If you are interested you can see and join the group at this link. Rhys Ford’s Coffee, Cats & Murder

That’s it for now. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I need more coffee and um… I have to get back to cursed statues. *grins*

That’s right, friends and fiends… ALL of the boys are on Twitter now. Okay, men. Our men with their silken, lovely voices and the acting talent they bring to the mic! Player Three has entered the game as Tristan James joins Twitter.

So to celebrate, I’m going to offer up THREE audiobook codes (in honour of the three guys) for your listening pleasure. Leave a comment below with your favourite line spoken by one of the three guys and be entered to win one of the codes. Doesn’t even have to be one of my books. Just something they narrated.

Haven’t heard the guys? Then comment and let me know which book they’ve done you’d love to hear.

Lastly, be sure to reach out and give the guys a hearty thank you for their time and efforts. They really bring everything to the mic when recording our books and work their damned hearts out.
