Veinglory

Write me no more poems about sunset.
Pink or bleeding red, showers:
the gold of profanity, or of gods.

Danae wants no poems about sunsets.
Orange and peach plucked by the night;
a circlet of murder in every coin.

Write me a poem about Dawn.

The cover art went up today and it already had attracted some attention. Thanks for the mention to Mrs Giggles. Thanks for the great cover design go to Anne Cain.

In case anyone is interested below is my original cover request. The cover is at the end. The novella will be out July 8th, final edits just went in today.

Cover Art Request:

Arun: “A rather ordinary, gangly young man in tidy robes, plain to look at, bookish and a little prim.” Sandy hair, pale skin, solemn demeanor. I see him something like this, a stock pick I have bought if you want to use it.


Arun is going to be a sun priest and he initially sees the wolfkin as a monster of the darkness. Maybe something like this wolf but with a sun not the moon (maybe with Arun in foreground). Or just a simple male face in the dark but lit from above like in this shot (yes of a girl, but you get the idea)>

[wolf not shown due to copyright]



I would suggest more of a fantasy tone than an MM one (e.g. I love the man torso, but not too centre stage on this one as it is not really full on MM erotica?)

The Cover (I love it):

Labels: WOLFKIN

Here we are before the beginning of May. And the blog is worth just over 1000 very hypothetical dollars.

Well, the first draft of my current manuscript is complete. I am not entirely sure what to call it now, possibly Here Comes the Sun, possibly Mason's Story. To be submitted to Loose Id LLC by the end of the month if all goes to plan.

I am a wimp and my dentist knows it, as a result I cannot currently feel my nose. This is better than last time when he worked on my lower teeth and I was left not entirely sure whether I was drooling or not.

This is the third of six visits. And that doesn't include eventually having to deal with a submarine wisdom tooth wedge in between a small tooth and a large nerve. We're saving that for later.

My current estimate is that my dental work will cost approximately 100% of my book royalties for this year. I sure as hell am not enjoying spending this money so it is just as well I enjoyed earning it.

Buy more books please, Mama needs a new post and crown.

Now officially coming soon.

"Warning: This title contains some tie-me-down M/M content, spellbinding love and a quest to face down the darkness within."

This makes me think of a scene form Eclipse of the Heart.

Stayed tuned for my new cover for Wolfkin. Anne did use the stock I suggested and it looks good!

I just heard a Fox News anchor refer to the 'Duke of Edinburgh' -- pronouncing it Edin-berg. [sigh]
