Collage of stuff-all

So, I decided I needed to actually get some writing done again. I'm working on Reasonable Doubt, the sequel to Bad Boys (Total-E-Bound dot com). Which makes me incredibly boring in the blogging department.

Much to Cecile's chagrin, I've decided to let my potential sex-slave go. Look, folks, I don't know where that boy's mouth has been. You know what I'm saying?

Kris of KrisnGoodBooks dot blogspot has issued me a challenge to write a 2k m/m erotic romance using choices selected by her blog readers. Oh. My. Gawd! Those people (although awesome) are totally messed up! LOL. Here's what I have to use...

1. the setting ~ a building earmarked for demolition

2. some background to one of the main protags ~ one is sucked in to doing a favour for a friend

3. another character/s ~ a lavender-haired matron in a twin set and pearls, who is constantly pinching butts

4. a conflict ~ one has a panic attack whenever he sees red M&Ms

5. an object/phrase to be mentioned in the story somewhere ~ a split trouser seam revealling a pink, lace g-string.

Lutefisk is not a starship entre

So I'm hanging out on other people's blogs and having guilty thoughts about no writing my own. You'd understand, though, if you went to CHRIS' or KRIS' or JANNA'S and saw what was going on in the comments section. Clearly, there are misguided individuals of loving nature who think I'm funny. They're deluded but we'll allow them their fantasy since I look good in it.

It's being a lot of fun. Chris posted an excerpt of Freeze Frame and a chance to win a copy. Everyone is giving me happy thoughts and sweetness over there. Janna posted a hot and steamy excerpt from Freeze Frame on her blog and then followed it up with an interview. There are computer fixers around the country cursing me for the beverage spray. Sorry. I'm not that funny. It's their fault. Really. Kris has challenged me to a m/m story piece of about 2k for mid-April.

Lutefisk? The bridge of the Starship Enterprise?? RED FREAKIN' M&Ms??? What the hell am I talking about? Commentors are picking from a list of possible inclusions that MUST go into the story I'm challenged with. These are just some of the hairball choices I'm seeing. And we have Kris and Bronwyn to thank for this mess. Geez. Being trapped on a starship with Lutefisk cooking is something no one should have to live through. The smell alone will put you at warp speed... to the porcelain throne!

But I'm a playah! I'm all about it and I can't wait to get my hands on the finished choices. Bronwyn, there will be payback (she told Kris the things which nast me out. She's a giver).

Right. So. I'm off to work and snark on blogs. Ta!
