Too Many Words In My Head

 

Hello, gentle readers! Hope you are all well and staying safe!

So, you all know that I’m working on Wife Unexpected, the fourth book in the Wives of Bravado County series, and I open that file every weekday to add more words to the story, but here’s what happened.

I’m going along, writing, deleting, rewording, trying again when all of a sudden, another character’s voice pops into my head. Now, I’ve been fully immersed in Faith and Tysen, hearing them talk to me (most times…sometimes they don’t say anything and I’m left trying to figure out what they want) but this was a different voice. Low and deep, kinda rumbling, a little on the hoarse side, but very pleasant…and persistent. Oh my gosh! So persistent!

"Write me!”

“Tell my story!”

Because I didn’t recognize this voice (no, hearing voices doesn’t  scare me because I hear the voices of my characters all the time. I’m not sure if other writers do. Maybe it’s just me.), I tried to ignore it. That didn’t work because it just became more insistent. And louder.

What was I to do? 

I was intrigued (and a little annoyed) by this persistent voice so I started asking it questions. You know—like who are you? Why are you talking to me NOW, when I’m knee-deep in another story? What do you want?

He just kept repeating ‘tell my story’.

“Well, I can’t tell your story if you don’t tell me who you are.”

Yes, I said this out loud. It was a good thing no one else in the house was awake, just the dogs, who are used to hearing me talk to myself.

“Tell my story,” came the answer again.

So here I am, sitting at my computer at 4:30 in the morning, arguing with a voice inside my head (and yes, talking to myself).

“Who are you?”

I hear laughter and that lovely voice says “Ryland Harper.”

Ryland Harper. Ryland Harper. I know that name (and I should because I name all my characters) and then it hits me, like a cast-iron skillet upside my head. He’s the hero in Mrs. Marlowe and The Monday Man, the fifth story in the Matchmaker Mischief series. Holy cow! I haven’t even written the fourth story yet!

“Why are you here now, Ryland?” I asked (the dog, my big girl, lifts her head from the futon and just stares at me, blinking her beautiful and confused brown eyes.) “You know I’m not ready for you yet.”

“Don’t care. You gotta write my words before you forget.”

And so I did. Easiest (and fastest) 900 words I’ve ever written (in less than an hour because I have limited time in the morning).

Ryland was happy and quieted because he’d gotten his way, but not before telling me he’d be back and I was able to get back to Tysen and Faith.

I guess it pays to listen to the voices in your head even if you’re not ready for them.  

And that’s all for me. Stay well! Stay safe! And remember to spread kindness wherever you go!

She’s ruined. He’s lost it all. A perfect match?

Lady Georgina is devastated. The lord who said he loved her, ruined her, then married another. Now her parents are desperate to keep her situation private by marrying her off to the first willing man no matter who it is. But even then, everything depends on her keeping her shame a secret…and she’s never kept a secret in her life.

Lord Philip Durham has lost it all on a sure bet. Desperate to save his father’s legacy and keep his situation hidden, he agrees to marry a woman with a large dowry. Discovering she’s also ruined only makes him more determined since it’s fitting penance for his past failings. Being forced to make a life with her, and thereby raising his family’s reputation, will satisfy both of his goals.

However, Lady Georgina appears to have goals of her own, including digging into his awkward family dynamics and returning to London for the remainder of the Season. As she becomes more confident, she seems to rise from the ashes of her old life like the mythical Phoenix. But can he avoid being burned or will her transformation bring him down in flames?

Work In Progress

 

        Hello, gentle readers! Hope you are all well and staying safe!

        It’s a beautiful morning as I sit down to enjoy my first cup of coffee and write this. It’s still hot, but this is summer in Arizona…and it’ll be hot for a while. That’s okay. The air conditioner is humming away so I’m staying cool. They say you get used to the heat, but I’ve been here forty-five years now and I can honestly say, no, I haven’t gotten used to it. Still, I can’t imagine being anywhere else.

        It’s been a busy week (it always is between the day job and the home stuff) but I feel like I accomplished a few things, especially on the writing front. I am 42K words into my current work in progress (Wife Unexpected, the fourth book in the Wives of Bravado County series). Now, whether these are good words or not remains to be seen. I am wondering if I somehow got off track, which is entirely possible. Like the last book I wrote (The Madam & Mr. MacLean), I did not write an outline or plot points so I’m winging it…and of course, writing the scenes as they come to me then puzzling it all in as I go. I may have mentioned before that I don’t write in a linear fashion. Believe me, I’ve tried, but it doesn’t seem to work for me.

        I can also report that I have viciously (yes, viciously!) ripped out entire pages in this work, sometimes one paragraph at a time, but more recently, several pages all at once. Does that make me want to cry? Yes. Yes, it does. The words don't always come easy. Sometimes they are dragged kicking and screaming from my brain so deleting them is devastating.

        Still, I am happy with what I have so far. Reasonably so. I’m trying to incorporate everything my editor has taught me (hahahaha, yes, it is hard to teach an old dog new tricks!). I have a list of words I’m trying to avoid. It’s a pretty long list and I never realized before how much I depend/use those words and that just makes it so much harder, but I’m willing to learn to make my stories better.

        And that’s about all for me. Wife Unexpected isn’t going to write itself so I should get back to it before the rest of the day takes over. Stay well! Stay safe! And remember to spread kindness wherever you go!

It's Too Darn Hot

 

        Hello, gentle readers! Hope you are all well and staying safe!

        I have been hibernating—in my house, at the office, in my car—wherever I can find some coolness. It is way too hot for me right now in the Valley of the Sun. I’m sitting here listening to my air conditioner continue to hum and praying it lasts another year. 

        Apparently, we are under a heat dome and I don’t know when it’s going to let up. The thermometer I have in my carport (in the shade) has been regularly reaching 118 degrees and I can attest to the fact if feels like a blast furnace outside.

        I should be used to this after living here for over 40 years, but quite frankly, I am not.

        But there’s an upside. I’m saving money because I don’t want to go anywhere except to places I have to (like the office for the day job. I run all my errands on my home) so home it is, which gives me more time to write.

        Last week, though, was an unavoidable trip to the car dealership because my Brandy (that’s what I named my car) was acting kinda hinky. When I say hinky, I mean just plain strange. The radio was cutting out and the display screen was going black. This is a livable situation. I don’t really need music when I’m in my car although I do like to sing while I’m driving—usually loud and sometimes off key, but I don't care. The other thing that was happening when the radio cut out is that the air conditioning was cutting out, too. I know. Strange. And unacceptable.

        I refuse to live without air conditioning. (I'm old and cranky enough as it is. Can you imagine if I was old, cranky and hot!?!?!?) So off to the dealership I went. I go to the dealership because they treat me well and offer a few perks, like contracting with Uber so I can wait at home while they work on my car. Works for me.

        Anyway, about this trip home from the dealership after dropping off my car. My husband tells me that I have ‘that kind of face’. People tell me things…usually things I don’t want to know. They take one look at my face and open up like water spilling from a dam. Or a tidal wave.

        What do they talk about? Anything and everything.

        Such was the case last week. The Uber driver was a sweet young man who proceeded to tell me his entire life story. And what could I do? I was trapped in the car, tooling down the highway. I couldn’t go anywhere. And I certainly couldn’t tell him to stop talking (that’s not my way) so I let him talk. I’m not sure, but I think he needed to.

        And you know what? The incident (and this is not the first time this has happened—probably won’t be the last!) made me realize something about my current work in progress (Wife Unexpected). My heroine (Faith) seems to be a woman with ‘that kind of face’ because the hero is telling her things he hasn’t told another living soul. It’s freeing (and scary) for Tysen, but the big question is, can Faith accept who and what he was before they met? I think she can because deep down, he's a good man. And she’s falling in love with him even if she doesn’t realize it yet.

        And Brandy? She needed a new battery and a new fuse box, all covered under the extended warranty I purchased when I bought her. Yay!

        Anyway, that’s all for me. I’m going to hibernate a little more and get back to writing. Stay well! Stay safe! And remember to spread kindness wherever you go!

Sunday Morning Musings

 

        Hello, gentle readers! Hope you are all well and staying safe!

        It’s Sunday morning as I sit down to write this. It’s a beautiful day. Not too hot yet (thank God for air conditioning…I tend to hibernate during the summers in Arizona) and there’s a lot I need to get accomplished. Sunday is my busy day, not like Saturday, where after my chores, I have a tendency to sit my butt on the couch and just veg. Granted, I do need that time to recuperate from the work week, but I hate the idea of being idle when there are so many things I could be—should be—doing.

        I’m not lazy. Not by a long shot. My house is cleaned and the laundry is done before I sit down. And I only do this on Saturdays (there’s too much to do and not enough time during the week).

        I have NetFlix, a constant draw for me and it’s both a good thing…and a bad thing. I particularly like the limited episode series. It’s so easy to get drawn in. You tell yourself you’ll only watch one episode then hours later, you realize you’ve watched the entire thing. I like the movies, too.

        That’s not to say I don’t do anything else during the time I’m vegging. I always have a pad of paper nearby so I can jot ideas, scenes, and bits of dialogue…somehow, just mindlessly watching a show frees up something in my head and the words I’m struggling with suddenly appear. 

        Which is a good thing because it seems like the writing is a hit or miss lately. I’m working on Wife Unexpected right now. I do have a deadline. It’s not for a while yet, but it seems like (feels like) I’m falling behind. I know, on one level, that I have plenty of time, but I can’t help feeling like I should be further along in the story.

        There are mornings (I write between 4:30 and 6:00 before the day job takes away every last brain cell in my head) when I’ll write 700 words then the next day, I’ll only get 200. What’s up with that? I have found though, when I’m having trouble in one scene, I will jump ahead and that seems to help (I am a puzzler).

        Ah, well, it is what it is. And being that this is Sunday, I should get moving! Lots of things to do today to get ready for the work week ahead…come on retirement! Only one year, five months, and twelve days to go before I can say goodbye to the day job! Whooo-hoooo!

Stay well! Stay safe! And remember to spread kindness wherever you go!

Amazon  | Amazon UK  | Amazon AU  | Amazon CA 

She’s shy, her nose buried in books. He’s the life of the party and maybe just the hero she needs to read. 

Painfully shy Lady Sophie is happy to blend in among the other shepherdesses at her friend’s Twelfth Night ball, at least until she gets lost in the corridors and a laughing stranger sweeps her into his arms and kisses her. Horrified, she runs away, enticed back to the ball only by a change of costume. But there’s something in her new costume that has her feeling as confident as the heroine of her favorite play, giving her the bravery to experience yet another kiss from the full-of-life Lord Tamworth. Unfortunately, the next morning, she must hide from him and return to her life at school.

Lord Tamworth has vowed not to wed until after he turns thirty, as he has secret plans that must be in place before he can settle on a wife. So, when he kisses an innocent shepherdess, he’s driven to apologize only to end up committing yet another faux pas. Determined to start his new life free of encumbrances, and to once again see the lady with the softest lips and keenest intelligence, he takes extraordinary measures.

It doesn’t take long for Christopher to discover teaching at the Belinda School for Curious Ladies is filled with many pitfalls, the deepest being the intriguing Lady Sophie. As his personal plans come to fruition, he’s torn over his growing feelings for her and ponders the unthinkable―breaking his vow. But he soon realizes his own plans are the least of the impediments to keeping Lady Sophie in his life. If he plays the villain in her story, will she ever see him as the hero?

The Madam & Mr. MacLean - Proofs are done!

 

        Hello, gentle readers! Hope you are all well and staying safe!

        Whoooo-hoooo! The last time I wrote to you guys, I let you know the first and second round edits for The Madam & Mr. MacLean were done. This week? The proofs are done as well!

        I’m so excited! Reading through the story for the last time before publication is still a thrill! Yes, it’s a lot of work, but it’s so worth it. At least in my opinion.

 

 The Madam & Mr. MacLean

Release day is July 7 (it’s currently up for pre-order on Amazon). I hope you love Sheridan and Wyatt as much as I do!

Stay well! Stay safe! And remember to spread kindness wherever you go!

The Madam & Mr. MacLean - First & Second Edits are done!

 

        Hello, gentle readers! Hope you are all well and staying safe!

        Okay, I’ll admit it right off the bat. I am tired. As you all know (and probably feel this way, too) there’s too much to do and not enough hours in the day! I am, however, not too tired to let you all know that I have finished both first and second round edits for The Madam & Mr. MacLean…and I’m happy. I have one more round to go!

        As you all know, I just love my editor and copy editor. My publisher, too, and their outstanding cover artists. They’re all so wonderful! I am so blessed!

        The book is already up for Pre-Order. Just love this cover. The heroine looks exactly like I pictured her. And the hero! Wow! Isn’t he dreamy? He’s even more handsome than I wrote him!

The Madam & Mr. MacLean

Since there’s no rest for the wicked, tomorrow I can get back to Wife Unexpected. I will admit I have missed Faith and Tysen while I worked through my edits on The Madam & Mr. MacLean (scenes and dialogue were coming to me at the most inopportune times. I still stopped what I was doing to jot them down because when great stuff hits you, you gotta do that!). 

And that’s all for me. It’s Sunday so I need to clean out my fridge and get ready to go grocery shopping, plus a bunch of other chores I didn’t get to yesterday. Hmmm, the chores never seem to end, do they?

Stay well! Stay safe! And remember to spread kindness wherever you go!

Mistakes Were Made by Lucy Score

As a literary agent, Zoey Mood's career relied on her last client, her romance writing best friend, Hazel Hart.  Zoey had been relieved of her New York office and apartment while banned to Pennsylvania in a rural town where everyone knows everyone and everything about each other.

  

Her new landlord, Gage Bishop who's also an attorney and construction worker, made his upper apartment available for the attractive, yet entirely obnoxious newcomer.

Zoey had a mental list of things she needed to take care of including make enough money to survive, publicize Hazel's new book successfully, and not date any men.  Her taste in boyfriends always backfired.

Quite the opposite for Gage.  He has solid work and wants to settle down with the right type of woman.  

The best relationships can happen as a surprise, when you don't expect it.  All you need is two single people who don't really realize what is good for them.  

This is where Zoey's spontaneous and goofy nature collides with Gage's orderly and carefully planned life through funny and ridiculous events, which allow them to get to know each other.  They attempt to fight off the growing feelings because neither believes they are compatible.  But maybe the differences are more attractive and sustainable than they previously thought.

Many laughs will bring the results!

Happy reading,

Dawn

The Madam & Mr. MacLean - Cover Reveal

 

    Hello, gentle readers! Hope you are all well and staying safe!

    I am in the middle of editing The Madam & Mr. MacLean (my editor has once again taught me things I didn’t know I didn’t know and I am grateful to her) but I wanted to take a minute to share the cover with you all. I just love it! In addition to their excellent editors, Oliver-Heber Books has fabulous cover artists! Look at what they created for me!

 

Can you tell I’m excited? She looks exactly like I pictured Sheridan DuBois to look! And he’s just pure eye-candy! Can’t wait for this book to come out. July 7! Mark your calendars!

Stay well! Stay safe! And remember to spread kindness wherever you go!

A Kiss Is Just A Kiss by Melinda Curtis

When you need a quick shot of romance during the spring warmup, garden planting, and schedules for the new season, this is the best pick.  

Florida can be decorated for a beautiful wedding when the pockets are picked, and there aren't any second guesses.  

Here's the problem:  the second guess isn't from the bride or groom, but rather Kitty, the bride's close sister.

Kitty realizes a broken rung in the ladder of love at the door of the church wedding.  She has a few minutes to solve or ignore the issue.  Guess which avenue she picks.

Beck thinks he's got all the contracts and steps to a successful life planned and executed until Kitty gets in the way.  His wedding is in a few minutes to finalize the signature on the marriage license.

Wedding over, guests stranded, and unhappy family members depart.

Kitty is left with Grandma Dotty and no way get back to their home state.  At least G. Dotty has a way of making the worst seem funny.  Even when they take their only opportunity to ride with the (former) groom.  

Beck and Kitty start the ride home like oil and water.  Fortunately, with the right ingredients of information and knowledge the bumps in the ride smooth out.

They may even respect and like each other as the miles accumulate.  Who knows what will happen by the time they reach their destination.  There's never a set timeline for love!

Happy reading,

Dawn
