A Heads Up ~

Lancatser's Way: A Different Way of Seeing... Well low and behold I threw away the first version and started from scratch. I made it to just over 2K yesterday so I am happy with that progress.

Mixed Tape: I Should Have Known Better... I am happy because yesterday I passed the 10K mark and now I have an inkling of where I am heading with this story. It's truly like a fog has been lifted as my mind has been caught up in other story lines.

The Lines of Marsden: Living in Shadows... I'm not really sure how much I have actually done on this one as I have a few different docs. (Shhh, don't tell Embry as I made fun of her for doing the same thing) any way so whichever perspective you want to look at it I am somewhere between 0 and 85K... I just need to put them all in the same place.

The Diamond Rose: Undercover Hearts... to be honest this book is at a standstill unless one of you lovely people can tell me where the hell I have put my spiral notebook with all my info and story ideas in it. You think I would have it in one of my filing cabinets, or maybe in the office somewhere... but alas I have put it in a safe place - I just have no clue where that safe place is at the moment. (But the tattoo Em has across her sternum of this title is almost finished just one more pass-over to do touch-ups) I think I'm just under 4K on this one.

Jettermane... even though this started as a blog story I have been revising it and expanding it and I will try and get it subbed somewhere so that Cinders and everyone else can find out the rest of the story. I was slack and just stopped mid story at a time when my real life seemed to get hectic as hell... about 18K

But who's life doesn't get busy at times... and why do I separate the two... because writing to me is just as real as breathing or cooking for my family.

Boys From The Bush...

Well I have had some feedback on Bush Bashin'. This was one story I was kind of worried about how it would be received by the public... but I have fulfilled my need to have one person like the story... This person even asked for who they wanted to here more about Alec and Lester... so it looks like the already established couple are getting their time to shine. and the series Boys From the Bush will make it out of the filing cabinet inside my mind.

When I write Alec & Lester I already have a title picked: Something That He Said and it will be a back story on how they met, fell in love, and ended up on Hazeldown Station...

 If the road to hell is paved with good intentions - then - the road to heaven is paved with blood, sweat, and tears.

Soon we will see just what these two men went through for the right to be just who they are. They will have you laughing, crying, and wanting to reach through the pages and slay their dragons.

Cinders it's coming soon (as soon as I write it!!!)





PS: Galley has been done on Sons of Evenmore: The Crimson Grimoire and Mannix and Jynx are safely back in the hands of the wonderful Kris Jacen and awaiting release... Releasing in March

Em's Turn Some Of My TLOM Playlist.



It's time for some music today and I'm feeling very eclectic in what I want to share with you all. These are songs which I have on my The Lines of Marsden playlist. They are songs that range for characters over the whole 18 books. but if I am honest most are for Michael Marsden and Raphael Marsden (in later books). So sit back with a nice cuppa, put your feet up and relax, and let the words flow over you.


I picture Michael and Benj singing this in England
(Book 2 or 3)

I can hear Doyle singing this 
(Book 2 - I have already written this scene)

I hear this song when I start to write the grown up Raphael
(Book 7 or there abouts)

This just screams Raphael to me

Been Sick Again...

So, by my heading you can tell why I have been Missing in action for the last couple of days. While I was away I re read some of my own books.

Toowoomba Boys: Angels on Top
Toowoomba Boys: Hunting for Clay
Lancaster's way: When Souls Collide

I have made tons of notes on all three and have come to the conclusion that the books which follow are going to be nothing like I planned... since the re read my mind is taking a whole different path.

Toowoomba Boys: Dancing with Demons - will still be Damon's book but what I originally had planned for him and the reason he disappeared has slightly gone a different way. Same basis just different people involved and we will meet new characters who will feature in future books.

Lancaster's Way: A Different Way of Seeing - Is still Chace's book but when I started writing it over the last couple of days the person who I thought he would be with: (Kelly Mack) is gone, and there is a whole new person who works for Doc Hedley (vet) got only a slight mention in When Souls Collide... this person comes in and falls for the challenged Chace Williams. I think it will be better this way, and again I will be introducing characters who will feature in future books in this series.

Here are some pics to help get you in the mood for Lancaster's Way #2...

For Cinders...

Okay, I have been asked for a basis of this story and how it relates to the other series in which I have linked them... they may be getting released arse about but they will still make sense.

In my mind they run in this order:
1) Pack Matters
2) Watson Falls
3) Sons of Evenmore

Though it would be okay to say 2 & 3 run at the same time or in the same time frame... I am still working on coordinating that part of the link up...

Pack Matters
Book 1: Chasing Dreams of You [WIP]
Scott Creely never wanted to be alpha, but when the alpha of the Lockyer Valley Pack decides Scott is getting too strong to follow orders he decides to prove just who is the alpha of the pack. Scott finds himself in the middle of an alpha challenge he didn't start, but by hell he is sure going to finish it.

Jordan Adams knew from an early age Scott was his mate, but a threat from the alpha had him running for the hills. He left his family and his home to keep his mate safe. Five years later he receives a message telling him his mate is in danger and he needs to come home. When he gets there he finds the mate he left behind isn't so young any more, and he isn't alone - he has a family.

Jordan and Scott are forced back together to save the pack they both love from total destruction, but with the intervention of the Ring of Old Ones, they realise not everything is as simple as they would like - it seems the alpha had a side business going on which only his inner circle was privy to. A secret which could destroy not only their pack, but also every coven and other shifter packs for good.

Book 2: More than Words
Book 3: To lose Myself in You
Book 4: Nothing Like I Planned
Book 5: Whatever Makes You Happy

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Watson Falls
Book 1: Between One Heartbeat & The Next [WIP]
In his need to be perfect Eli Bailey has one huge-arse meltdown when he finds out the one person he has always loved is coming back to Watson Falls for good. Callous words said so long ago by his twin brother turned him into the wreck he is today.

Zane Watson comes home to find so much can happen in five years. When they forced him to leave  he wasn't sure what he was going to do. He wasn't strong enough to live without Eli in his life. His Parents death sets off a series of events where he finds himself back in Eli's arms... but for how long?

Yet something is still missing, and they don't figure out what until a dingo shifter called Jethro walks into their lives - He's special and needs them as much as they need him.

How are an anorexic Eli, Zane who needs to cut himself to feel better, and a frightened and skittish Jethro going to survive all that the pack and complete strangers throw at them. When all seems lost the Lockyer Valley Pack step in to lend a helping hand. All is not well in the world they have known - who else will be willing to stand by their sides?

Not everybody who does is there to help - some are just  there to further the pain.

Book 2: Walking on a Fine Line
Book 3: Slowly Creeping In
Book 4: Town Full Of Thorns
Book 5: A Little Piece of Heaven

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Sons of Evenmore 
Book 1: The Crimson Grimoire [MLR]
When war calls, the Sons of Evenmore answer. But who will stand at their side?

Vampire Mannix Lunos has been given the task of watching over the Keeper. When he  rescues and names the Keeper ‘Jynx,’ he finds himself unexpectedly mated. What's more Mannix now has the job of keeping Jynx safe - a task that will require the help of his coven. For Jynx is more than what he seems. He's the most wanted commodity in the known world and all other supernatural beings are out to capture him.

When war comes knocking at their door, the Sons of Evenmore and their new allies find themselves not only guarding Jynx, but fighting for the right to exist.


Book 2: Blood to Blood [WIP] (Phoenix & Linkin)
Book 3: Do or Die
Book 4: Same Thing in Reverse
Book 5: I will Remain Yours
Book 6: Everything Ends

To be honest, I am still working out how everything gets linked together I just know Scott makes an appearance in all three series as do a couple of other characters. I do know all the bad guys are linked... I should really finish Pack Matters I have about 10 K to write before Chasing Dreams of You is finished.
