Six Sentence Sunday

Coming July 11th...the sixth book in the Westervelt Wolves series.

It's time to meet their sister.

She’d been told her whole life she was special and not necessarily in a good way. Growing up, the women of the New Orleans pack who had raised her, each taking a turn handling her, had loved to tell her the story of the Kane family and the way their wolf pack had turned on their mated women. She shivered at the thought.

If the stories were to be believed, her six brothers still roamed around their island in Maine looking for more women to butcher. So she certainly couldn’t take Parker there for help. A bunch of raving wolves were not going to be able to work magic on him.

I missed day 4 of RWA

So, you may have heard if you follow me on twitter (rebeccaroyce) that I got sick and had to go home from RWA. I officially missed the last day, which made me sad. (Hence the face above.) Instead, I spent the day doing some writing and resting.

But, what did I learn? Well...a lot. I took a Body Language class where I learned about vulnerable areas in relation to flirting. I learned about light versus dark paranormals in the industry. It was wonderful. I also made some wonderful friends and toured around a city I take for granted because I live so close to it.

Wonderful experience and I highly recommend if you are thinking of going to RWA you do.

RWA...Day 3 Recap

So, I will give a brief recap of RWA day 3 but I have to preface this by saying that I left early because I have a nasty cold and I wanted to get home to my bed. I was lucky...I live very close to NYC and I was able to jump in my car and leave. I know some others who live further away are not feeling so hot and are still stuck in their hotel rooms. I feel for them. And I miss my friends!!

But, I started the day at a very interesting seminar run by four AVON authors. It was about light paranormals versus dark paranormals. Three of the authors wrote dark series and one wrote a light series. There was a lot of really interesting questions and discussion. Basically, it comes down to this. If you write a light paranormal series it can't be entirely 'light.' There has to be something pressing, something the readers can get really invested in even as the characters are 'light.'

I, however, write dark paranormals and I was incredibly interested in that aspect of the discussion. And (*Squee*) Pamela Palmer answered one of my questions and signed a book for me. I'm still jumping up and town about it. At this point, however, I realized that I still had a boa (don't ask) that a new writer I had met named Tara had given me to hold the night before. I quickly ran up to my room so I could return the boa to her. This is easier said than done. (See the earlier comments about the elevator in previous posts.) I retrieved the boa and was back in the elevator when I looked over and there was the amazingly famous author Rebecca York. I became tongue tied and could think of nothing to say. So, I looked down at the boa looked back up at her and proclaimed that the boa was not mine. She smiled and told me that at this conference it wasn't out of place. That got a double *squee* (internally, of course) from me.

Then I returned Tara her boa and ended up leaving because I felt so sick. I am missing my friends and wishing I could be there with all of them. Hope you ladies are still having fun!!
