Right now, the only thing I’m working on is myself. I’ve been dealing with depression for the past year and a half, and for better or worse, a great deal of that depression is rooted in the world of writing. Not writing, specifically, and no, it’s not about reviews. It’s about the business of writing, and the politics of my genre. They wear me down. They crush every ounce of my spirit. They exhaust me.
So for the moment at least, I am not writing a thing. I’m not even thinking about writing. Maybe someday in the future I’ll feel like doing it again but until that time, I’m removing the word “should” from any sentence that also includes the word “write.”
Family Man was just released. I have Flowers for Him, a short story that will release in April (co-written with Rowan Speedwell). I have a Tucker Springs novel, Never a Hero, coming in May, and I have Fear, Hope, and Bread Pudding, the final book in the Coda series, coming in June.
After that…. I have no idea.
(updated 3/15/12)
Soooo….how goes the cyberpunk? Any tidbits you can drop us that will titillate and lubricate our wanters? Who knows guys? None of us were sitting around waiting for Jon and Cole, or Angelo and Zack for that matter, when they appeared on the scene and stole hearts from here to Phoenix. Could be that what’s percolating in Marie’s cauldron could be just as sexy and compelling.
Just sayin’….
Ha! Nice way of putting it.
I did recently finish up my next Tucker Springs novel. It’s called Never A Hero. It will be out in May. I’ve also been working on the cyberpunk. I’m completely stuck on the ending though. One of my editors is looking at it this week, and with any luck she’ll have some advice for me. I feel like what I have is really strong. I just have no idea how to make the ending work. >.< Other than that, I’m contemplating a Blind Space sequel, and I’m working on a short story with Rowan Speedwell for an anthology. I’ve been at GayRomLit all this week (which is why it took me a bit to answer. sorry about that!) but once I get home I hope to get some work done.
Thanks!
Hi Marie,
Like everyone else I love the Coda books and look forward to more releases in that series in the future. But what I really want to know is whether there’ll be a Blind Space series? Just read it and it felt like a prelude to something more? Please tell its in your todo list:)
Hi Renato! Sorry for the delay in responding to your question. I’m at GayRomLit this week and just now opened up my laptop!
The truth is, I do have an idea for a Blind Space sequel, but I’m not sure what will happen with it. Sometimes I feel like I plan sequels to everything, but they so rarely come to fruition. Still, it IS possible. Keep your fingers crossed for me.
Thanks!
Hi Marie. I just wanted to say thanks for your amazing books. I bought all of the Coda books last week and now I just finished them all for the second time! I don’t normally read m/m romance novels. I have read a few and often they are over-the-top and often quite silly. Or they are so focused on the sex that the story is lacking. Your books have such a realism to them that I really appreciate. I also appreciate that you aren’t so focused on the sex that the plot suffers. Thank you for writing such wonderful books. Since I bought the Coda books I have bought a few more of your books as well. But the Coda boys still hold my heart! So I will start begging you to write more books about them too! More Coda books please!
Thanks very much! I’m really glad you enjoyed the series! The Coda boys were a lot of fun for me as well.
Well, this just had to be a bit disconcerting…bravely announcing the focus of your latest writing efforts only to be met with overwhelming, relentless Coda love and assorted bouts of begging!
First, your “Release” teaser sounds darkly epic in a prickly sort of way, and I’ll be in line to buy a copy, right on schedule. Of course, at this point, you could slap your name on a phone book and I’d buy that too, and then read it wondering what I was missing.
That said, it’s now time to blame the victim. This is all your own fault, you know. You cannot…I repeat, CANNOT…end a book like “Strawberries” with the tag line “I’ve always wanted to be a father,” and then just waltz away with cute but sadistic grin. See…you have an implied contract now with your mouth frothing readership (myself included), which is leading to the incredible lack of focus on current efforts and the generalized begging. Did you even see that dotted line when you hit that last period on the page?
We will wait as long as it takes, until, as Jo March used to say, “Genius Burns!” once again in this neck of the Colorado woods. Sort of like a patient dog chained to a tree, waiting, waiting.
But pardon us all if we bark once in a while. : )
In the meantime, cyberpunk is good….
Hi Julia! Thanks for your comment. It’s true, I’m getting used to revealing my latest story only to hear, “Yes, but when do we get more Coda?” Honestly, it can be a bit demoralizing on my bad days. Don’t get me wrong, though. My roots are in Coda, as well as a decent chunk of my heart. I’m really, truly glad people enjoy those boys so much. I do hope to get back to Jon and Cole someday.
Thanks again!
I totally get it, I LOVED Sinners, read it at least 20 times… So dear Marie, go where you want and tell us you fantastic stories… But please write more… And more…
Lot of love,
Madison
Well I have to totally agree with Julia, Marie, you can’t just keep things hanging like that. That is not so fair to us who absolutely love these people and want to know what happens to them next. I feel like this year you were not on a Cada mind set… and I for one would really like to see a change before the end of the year… don’t those guys need a little more love from you…
Maybe that’s a bit harsh? I get where you’re coming from–I want more Coda too, but I also want Marie writing what makes her happy too. I’m the biggest Coda fan in the world–I’ve re-read Promises at least ten times and the whole series at least a half-dozen, but I don’t think Marie *has* to get back to Coda. As much as I love Coda, I love her recent stuff too–Sinners & Saints with the dual POV was just amazing and ties Promises for me for my favorite. The Oestend series has been unique–I never thought I’d read high fantasy, but I’m glad I went there with Marie. Amazing world building. I recommend Blind Space all over the place–it’s going to end up rivaling Promises and Sinners for most-re-read status. What I love about writers like Marie is how they encourage me to test out genres I don’t usually read–like Julia says, Marie could sell her grocery list on Kindle and I’d buy it
And I’m excited to buy her latest this week 
As much as I want to see a Strawberries Epilogue or Matt & Jared peek (please!), I’d rather wait until it comes from a place of joy for Marie rather than “OMG. My rapid fans. I *must* crank something out right now.” I think it’s an amazing compliment how deeply we all love Marie’s characters.
Pre-cisely. Indubitably. Exactamundo. Ja Wohl. Characters as compelling as these come from a place of love and conviction, lust and humor, curiosity and imagination. Unless an author feels that upspring, that wondering, that alchemy, those quacking ducks lining up that make you get out of bed in the morning and crack your knuckles at the keyboard…well, that’s the difference between a 3 star and a 5 star on goodreads. There are PLENTY of books out there that offer a space to simply dwell affectionately with characters…to visit their world for a little while and experience the charm, regardless of what they may do…or not do. But Marie’s stories are more…they are profound journeys…not just snapshots of “a moment in the life.” They harbor characters with history, flaws and significant potential, and the Happily Ever Afters are the result of acts of profound courage, honesty and maturation. I don’t wanna hang out with Jonathan and Cole just to watch them fumble humorously through adoption or surrogacy, change diapers, hang in the park with the other mommies and accidentally feed the baby chili. There has to be a conflict, an unresolved tension, a catalyst that drives the two men forward to a place they never expected to be by the end of the book. That’s a tall order to fill when you’ve already tied up the bow on the last story so nicely.
Except for that one naughty tag line….tsk tsk.
But…we have world enough and time…this coyness, lady, is no crime…
Bring on the cyber punk!
Thanks so much, ladies. All three of you here on this thread, Julia, Madison and Annabeth, I really appreciate your comments. It really is incredible to know that my characters are loved enough to inspire this kind of fervor. LOL. That being said, I’m so glad to hear that you’re ready for non-Coda stories too.
I am glad people love Coda. Of course I am. A lot of my heart still resides in there. But it’s much like my hometown, where I grew up, but then I left it behind. For or better or worse, my muse has moved on to a large degree. I definitely am not against a return visit at some point, but it has to happen in its own time. I think if I force it, it will come out in the writing.
I definitely appreciate those who are willing to follow on whichever journeys my muse stumbles upon. I feel like people who only read Coda are missing out on some of my best work. Still, that’s their choice, so I get it. For anybody who really only wants lighter contemporaries, I’ve started the Tucker Springs series with LA Witt and Heidi, which will be similar to Coda.
Will I ever get back to them? I don’t know. I know a bit about how Jon and Cole’s adoption story goes down, but it’s small. It wouldn’t even be a novella at this point. Writing a baby story doesn’t interest me. Kids in books don’t interest me. Nothing against those who write them or enjoy them, but I guess (as a parent) I don’t find parenthood that interesting or exciting. Baby eats, baby poos, baby sleeps, parents don’t. Rinse and repeat. LOL. So, maybe someday I will at least put down the adoption story, but until then, I’m going to keep following my muse down dark alleys, because it’s the only thing I can really do.
Thanks again to all of you. No matter which books you like best, it’s always gratifying to know that readers are enjoying the stories.
Marie
Oh pleassssseeeeee write Jon/cole story soon!!!!!
I have re read strawberries for desserts more times that I can count ..
I want to know what happen after that !!
Will we ever hear from Angelo and Zack again? And all of the guys from Coda……
Do you have any idea yet what your next book will be? I’m afraid that as a huge fan of your books, I’m a teensy bit impatient
Unfortunately, it probably won’t be soon. 2011 was a very bad year for writing for me, and it’s all catching up with me now.
I am just now finishing up a sequel to Song of Oestend, but it probably won’t be released until the end of the year. I have several contemporaries lined up, but it’s hard to say how quickly I can finish them. How soon they come out after they’re written depends a lot on which publisher I send them to. It’s possible I could have a release this summer, but at the moment, there’s nothing in the pipes. Fingers are crossed though that I can make something happen.
Thanks for asking!
No you didn’t but what you did create was wow… Levi/Jamie’s story was so wonderfully done.. Just amazing.
Don’t forget Jamie and Levi either…. God that booked was amazing too. Marie you just have to dedicate more time to writing
I do need to devote more time to writing. That’s true. 2011 was not a good year in that regard. I hope to do better in 2012.
My vote would also be Jon/Cole, Matt/Jared, but also Levi and Jamie ….I have read these books so many times I have lost count! It is your fault Marie, you are such a great story teller that each of your books and the people in them become part of our lives, and we keep wanting to know what happens to them next.
Oh gosh. Now I’m going to disappoint everybody. LOL. My short for the CoP Bday Bash ended up being not Coda-related at all. Sorry about that. Well, I hope you’ll all enjoy it anyway, and maybe I’ll get to those other Coda stories someday. (BTW, the CoP stories will be shared the week of January 24th.)
Thanks!
Ok, I am so behind in keeping up with you, Marie!
may I vote yes for a Jon/cole read, and double-yes for (((Angelo))) and Zach? Anything Angelo and Zach!
xo
BUbz
I’m going to join the bandwagon and say: YES PLEASE (times a thousand plus infinity) to more Jon & Cole story. I must have read Strawberries For Dessert a hundred times this year alone. I can never get enough. You’re such a genius for creating them… So, if there’s a chance that you might write Jon and Cole again, please do because I am 110% positive that it would make A LOT of people super happy. Thank you for the best dessert in the world ever!
@Mavieenlair
totally with you…
cole is just so sweet to eat…
if he were near me….god, no second thought for me to not walk to him and
take him where he stand… X_x
but once again…I will feel sad and bad about Jon. ;p
so…maybe threesome… XD XD XD
Haha! I imagine Cole would be a bit startled by that.
I think that too
it’s your fault Marie…how in the hell you came up with him…
(jarred and matt too)
I mean…wow…and wow
XD
but hey, am not that bad looking at all… (^3^)!!
so, maybe there is a chance for me…
teeehehehehe~~~
Thanks so much. I really do hope to write a bit more about these two some day. It’s not in the works yet, but keep your fingers crossed.
Thanks again!
Please let number 4 be about Jon! I promise to keep reading everything you write but my heart belongs to Jon and Cole
My “Matt” left me for a real Cherie……my ending wasn’t so happy. He said he had never felt this way for a guy before, but we could no longer be friends. It did bring back a lot of memories…..I just wish my ending would have been so happy. The irony is how similar it was to my real life situation.
Oh Dan, that’s awful! I’m so sorry! I hope very, very much that your Happily Ever After is coming soon! ((hugs))
Hang in there!
Nah~~~More Of JarXMat
and absolutely more of COLE AND JONATHAN PLS…
I really would like to live with them
day by day
;p
like really knowing what they are doing now, and what will they do at night…
will they go somewhere tomorrow or next sunday… :droooools:
am so hoplessly addicted to them, and you are the one to take responsibility for it…
T_T
Thank You So Much Marie-Sama
Gah! Fantastic.
I will cross my fingers.
xxx
Bubz
Oh good because you know how I feel about Angelo!
*blows Angelo a kiss*
I just imagine some authors get tired of being asked for more of a certain character…especially if they are writing something else….
Maybe a short “slice of life” short story or post with ang and one or more of the other Boyz will pop into your head someday!
Xxx
Bubz
It’s possible (no guarantees) there will be a short story in January that includes Angelo. But that’s all I’m saying for now.
I hope to never annoy you with my love of/hints for more Angelo!
Have a great day, beloved author!
Ha! No worries! I’m absolutely NOT annoyed! I love when anybody loves my boys, but especially when they love Angelo.
Jon and Cole! (((Marie)))! You know how I love them!
Would there be any Angelo in it do you think?
(((Angelo)))
Xxx
Bubz
At this point, I don’t anticipate any of the other guys making an appearance, but anything is possible.
Cole would need to at least call Jared on the phone right? And if he did, that might get the other guys thinking about where they are in life . . . and there you go. “B” storyline. Or Jared could just slip in an update
Nope, not above begging for more Jared & Matt. The Promises file accidentally opened on my nook the other day and next thing I knew I was re-reading the whole series–for like the 6th time. I might need a 12 step program.
That’s funny! Well, I’m glad you can still enjoy them after that many reads. And I’ll certainly keep that “B” storyline idea in my head. LOL.
Thanks!
More of Jon and Cole?! Love that!!!
Thanks, Sarah! Hopefully I get it written some day!
Last weekend, I was wasting my time on Amazon looking for something interesting to read… When I stumbled on “Promises”. I loved it! LOVED IT! We are now Wednesday, and I already finished “Strawberries for Dessert” and am starting “A to Z”.
I adore your style! It flows. It doesn’t give me the impression that I’m reading a book. I am totally hooked which is very unusual for me, since I never read books in English (I stick to french).
I also got really attached to your characters so I am really glad you are thinking of doing a sequel for Cole and Jon! It’s my favorite couple (for now) and the ending was very moving.
I am looking forward for more strawberries!
And thank you for your wonderful creations.
Thanks Linda! I’m so glad you’re enjoying the Coda books so far. Thanks for your comment!
I love the comment about favorites. Matt and Jared might be my favorite m/m couple of all time. (I’m not going to commit to that until I have a chance to reflect on all my couples, but I think they may have it.)
I would love to see a story with Frances and Simon. That one is screaming to written.
Thanks Crystal. I think about Simon and Frances a lot.
A Jon and Cole followup…Love it!
Hopefully I finish the darn thing someday!
reading comments is awesome! I love how diff people have fave couples- for me I looovvve Matt and Jared. Like I will happily buy any book that has them in it
Isn’t that fun? I love the fact that everybody has different favorites! I love that every one of my boys has somebody who says, “He’s the best.” It’s part of what makes this gig so cool.
I have been running around the internet trying to find The Collage. But following your trail all I saw was a lot of NSFW that seared my brain! Oh the dangers of being a fan!
You have my vote for all of the all of the above, but I would love to read a sequel to Between Sinners and Saints. I’ve read almost all your books & short stories except Song of Oestend that’s on my reading list. you are one of the few authors on my automatic buy list, sometimes I don’t even read the summary (O.o”)
Thanks so much, Kerri! I appreciate that!
A good sequel to One More Soldier would be how Will moved to San Francisco to honor Bran and live his life freely. Than a wounded soldier comes across Will’s path and states that he served with Bran to include the time of his death. They get to talking and find out that Bran spoke very highly of Will and if something was to happen to him in Vietnam he was to deliver a letter to Will stating how much the last two weeks of his life back home with Will meant more to him than he could possibly imagine. They would become close friends and have a common bond, the love that both shared for the one man that touched their lives and was taken at an early age to a horrific war.
Oh, that’s a lovely idea!
Loved between sinners and saints. Everytime I read a blurb for one of your books I think oh that is not my type of story, but I have loved each one. I must confess I am a big Jon fan. I am really hoping that story comes together because I can’t wait to read it.
Thanks so much for your comment! I’m glad you liked Between Sinners and Saints. I’m also glad to hear Jon has fans! I hear from lots of people who like Angelo or Cole or Matt and Jared, but very few who pick Zach or Jon. It’s nice to know they all have their fans. Jon and Cole may get their follow-up some day, if my muse cooperates.
Thanks again!
I just finished Sinners and Saints….I LOVED IT!!!!!!! Would love a sequel to see how Levi and his Boy Scout are doing, what a beautiful love story as well as a touching family saga. I would love to come back to Charleston and visit them all over and see how Dolly’s doing and how far Jamie has come, In trusting again. GREAT!
Thanks for the amazing read!
Thanks Jennifer! I’m so glad you liked it! It’s very possible I’ll come back to Jaime and Levi someday. (I told my husband he had to take me to Charleston first, and he didn’t completely balk at the suggestion.)
I started with the free Promises last week and I’ve now finished the whole Coda series (working on Paris right now). . . Addicted much? Also, my bank account says free books are painful
Yes, please write a follow-up for Jon/Cole–I sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo want to see Cole get his secret wish. Please keep writing the contemporaries–your voice is so perfect and wonderful. I’m not much of a fantasy/paranormal readers, but I’m looking forward to checking out your other contemporaries and the solider book! Thank you for one of the most enjoyable weeks of reading I’ve had in a very, very, very long time.
Thanks very much! I’m so glad you enjoyed the Coda books. I spent a year and half with those boys living in my head, and I love them so much. I may get back to them eventually. Until then, I hope you enjoy One More Soldier, and I hope you’ll check out Between Sinners and Saints when it comes out next week.
Thanks again!
I absolutely fell in LOVE with Strawberries for Dessert. I even bought Paris A to Z even though I haven’t read about Matt and Jared or Zach and Angelo just to catch more glimpses of Jon and Cole. I just absolutely loved Jon’s growth since his first meeting with Cole. I hope to see more of the two in the future.
Thanks Fanta! Glad you liked SfD. Jon and Cole are a lot of fun. I hope you’ll give my other boys a try, too.
LOL you probably DON’T want to read it as you are writing one and wouldn’t want to be influenced(?) but if you are interested in it let me know.
Bubz
Marie, i just re-read Strawberries again for the zillionth time…cried my eyes out through most of it. I forget how much I love that book, and how much I love Cole. I want to know Cole! LOL.
I just hope there is more Cole/Jon in our futures…as well as (((Ang))) and Zach…and Matt and Jared of course
I was going to mention that Laura Baumbach wrote a “pirate in space story” called “Details of the Hunt.” Have you read it? When I got it I thought “this is literally the oddest plot ever” but it is a darling m/m book. She made up a very hot, twinky pirate + alien love story! LOL
xxx Bubz
I haven’t read it! Good to know.
Glad SfD still pleases!
I’m so excited to see you might do a Cole and Jon follow up. I loved Strawberries for Dessert because of Cole. And although I was completely satisfied by the book, I’m now thinking of all the wonderful things you could do in a continuation. xD I hope you write it someday!
PS. Paris A to Z was amazing! I can’t believe you managed to fit all those personalities in one book.
Thanks! I do hope to get to it someday. And I’m so glad you liked Paris A to Z!
I absolutely LOVED Strawberries for Dessert. Cole is such a fabulous character. I am excited about the Paris book but I would love it if Cole and Jon would get their follow up story , please please please !!! Especially with Cole´s back story – seeing him and Jon attempt fatherhood would just be fantastic … It´s definitely a book I´d buy
Thanks Kate! So glad you liked SfD! Jon and Cole’s last story is still sort of taking form in my head, but I do hope to get to it someday.
Thanks again!
So glad to hear there’s going to be more Zach and Angelo! But terribly sad to hear that there *may* not be more for Cole and Jon. I have a really hard time deciding who I like better– Cole or Angelo. Don’t get me wrong– Matt and Jared are great, but Cole and Angelo sparkle! And honestly– Cole would be a fantastic father!
Looking forward to April!
A
Thanks Alaina! Cole and Angelo are both great fun to write, so I’m glad they’re fun to read as well.
And I agree, Cole would make a great father.
Hi Marie
Just checking in. Turned another friend on to the Coda boyz…she is on Strawberries, now.
Anxiously waiting for Matt and Jared’s story
Valentine’s gift to us readers, I think!
xxx
Bubz
P.S. and my usual message for Ang…(((Angelo)))
Hello! Thanks so much for pimping my boys for me!
I’ll be hosting a contest at the beginning of February and the winner will receive a free copy of Putting Out Fires, so make sure you check back! And you will officially get more of Angelo on April 6th!!
Thanks!
Marie I think I love Angelo enough to make up for any readers than don’t
xxx
Bubz
Haha!! That’s good to know!
Oh Marie – I’m really excited for all the new stories – in particular the Paris Story – can’t wait for that one!
Thanks Sandy! I hope you enjoy it!
Oh Marie, yay! I was checking back to see if there would be an update on Paris Story!
So excited
I have turned 3 or 4 of my friends on to the Coda Boyz!
Hugs to you and Angelo
Bubz
Thank Bubz! Yes, the Paris story is finally finished. Phew! That one gave me a few headaches, but I’m happy with it now.
I just finished strawberries for desert and like the others (promises, Ato Z and the letter Z) i loved it! I will say i had my reservations about it at first, i was skeptical if i would like Cole, but I LOVE HIM and Jonny
But what is this about The promise? Is it a short story? Is it out already i have not seen it. Please help if there is a story about these boys i am missing right now i need to know, love them!
Rachelle-
Thanks so much! I’m glad you liked SfD. The Promise is a short story about Matt and Jared. It is unpublished but is available here on my website.
Thanks again!
Marie
I love Zach & Angelo and can’t wait to read more about them. I just started Strawberries for Dessert and at the moment although I’ve loved all 3 books so far Letter to Z is my favourite – Just love Angelo.
I’m so glad to hear it! Angelo is the character who, no matter what, for better or worse, is always there in my head telling me exactly what he thinks about everything. I love him to pieces, although I know not all of my readers feel the same way.
loved strawberries for dessert
can’t wait for paris thanks
Thanks April!
Hi Marie. I just read Strawberries for Dessert…. loved it. Promises is still my fave, but I love the way you tell stories, so I loved this one just as much for different character reasons. I cant wait for the next one,hopefully it will include additions to the family! So hurry cuz I cant wait to read it!
Thanks Judith! Glad you liked it!
I’m VERY excited about Paris, and the Cole and Jon short story….I LOVE your books.
LOL. Thanks Vikki! I need to finish that damn Paris story!
Hi Mary, just bought your book and read it in almost one swoop. You have outdone yourself again! I was sceptical at first if such a seemingly flighty and flimsy guy like Cole could have any depth and even find true love. Boy, was I wrong….The book was just beyond good. I am reading it now the second time. The story has so much tenderness, humor, unexpected turns and twists. I adore your writing style and I found it ingenious that you let the reader know what Cole is thinking by having him write those e-mails to Jared. Than you for your fabulous story tellings… Ursula
I’m so glad you liked it, Ursula! Cole was so fun to write about, and I’m really thrilled that people are enjoying his book.
Thanks again!
Marie
This was my favorite of all your books. I too would like to see more of Cole and Jon. I feel like there is much more to know about Cole and a story centered around a growing family would provide a great platform for those revelations. Thanks for a great book.
LCW – Thank you so much! I’m glad you liked it.
Just finish Strawberries for Dessert. Another great book in your series.
Can’t want to read Cole and Jon short story, hopefully baby story, please!!!!.
Thank Kat! Glad you liked it!
I have read Promises, A to Z(several times because I just love Angelo),The letter Z & I just finished Strawberries… Personally, I would love to see all of them together with one of the couples with a baby? ??? Whatever you decide to do I know it will be great. But. …while you are working on that a short story or two please. Lol!
Hello- I enjoy your books and I just finished Promises. I agree with Rossy, I would love to see a story that involves family (babies). There are a couple of good gay family books out there, but I would love to see something like both Matt and Jared adopting a baby and becoming fathers for the first time. (Outside of babysitting their nephew).
Just sharing my thoughts. Oh, and you ROCK!!!
Turnerpla- Thanks so much for you input and your comment! I hope you’ll check out Strawberries for Dessert. It will be available on Friday.
Thanks again!
You already know how much i LOVED your first 2 books, and that am going to start reading the 3rd soon when i get in the right mood. Can’t wait to read those short stories!
Well since you asked, here is what i would like for you to write: I would love a story about gay parenting. With the kind of character development you are able to achieve, i think you can create a great couple with that kind of plot. There are less than a handful of GOOD stories about gay men, who end up being parents together. Please give me one!!!LOL
Rossy – I’ll keep that in mind!
I’ll be interested in hearing your thoughts after you finish Strawberries for Dessert.
Just finished the Letter Z and love it, loved it…. The different POV were intriguing and made the story very lively. I never get tired of Angelo’s point of view, very unique.
Fully support your idea about the Paris story and would love to see more how Angelo and Zach interact with each other. Their connection runs quite deep, so I suppose the well of story about those two will not dry up very quickly. And with the many layers of Angelos personality there is maybe even a possibility for another novella/novel? What about his “relationship’ with his mother?
I can’t wait to read other stories from you. You are such a highlight in the m/m romance genre
Regards Ursula
Thanks so much Ursula. I’m glad you liked it. Although the Paris story isn’t next on my agenda, I’m quite sure Angelo isn’t through with me yet.
Angelo HAS to go to Paris
I have read both Promises and A to Z (along with “The Promise” and “The Letter Z”), and much like Larry616, I really hope to see more Matt and Jared in the future. I just love these two characters. Thanks for sharing them with us
I have read your first two books, Promises and A to Z. Loved them both but the characters of Matt and Jared are the ones that stuck with me. I just dowlnloaded the Promise Short story and haven’t had time to read it just yet, but looking forward to it. I do hope that you continue to use Matt and Jared in future books like you did in A to Z. They are really hot characters! Keep up to good writing, I am looking forward to the next book.
Thanks Larry! I’m glad you like Matt and Jared. You definitely will get to see more of them in The Letter Z. I don’t expect them to turn up in Phoenix with Cole, but you never know what will happen down the road!
Thanks again!
Really darling, time to get on with it, don’t you think?
*snerk* You said ‘cock’.
