One of the most important things for an author is to be consistent with social media. That's fallen by the wayside for me a little bit this past month. Between some struggle with personal illness (nothing serious, just a nasty summer cold that won't go away) and the realization that a former coworker and colleague was among the dead in Orlando, I've been a little out of it.
At times like this I know I resort to comfort. I spent time reading comic books, searching my kindle for sweet stories. I think for sweet it's hard to beet the persistence of Theo's secret romance in The Colors of Romance. It's a quick short story, and more young adult than new adult (romance, not sex), but it's also a reminder of how we struggle to find love, and how love can work so hard to make us feel good. Also, rainbows and pride and stuff, so check that out too.
Among the things that got set aside was my serial, and this edition (Chapter 4) catches that project up. I hope you'll check it out.
Here's the blurb:
The One That Feels
Thommas Ashforthe should never have met his ex Brian at the club. Never able to refuse Brian’s pleas, Thommas enters the Realm to seek out the lost spirit of Brian’s dying boyfriend Jordan. The price of travel in that place of magic is steep and oaths spoken in the Realm cannot be broken. With time running out before Jordan’s body dies in the world of the real, Thommas rushes through the Realm on a hopeless quest.
Nem is a prince of Zaharoth, and Thommas represents a hope of escape from the ruthless authority of his father. But when Nem binds Thommas with an oath as a price of passage through the forests of his homeland, can he dare to hope that the stranger from the real will be truly bound by it?
Look for some news about that super secret WIP coming soon!
