Monday's Links to Writing & Marketing Blog Posts

My author buddy Dave Thome (Man Writing Romance) tagged me in a blog tour to answer four questions about my writing:

1. What am I working on?
2. How does my work differ from others of its genre?
3. Why do I write what I do?
4. How does my writing process work?

Look for the answers later this week.

Dave is currently working on San Fernando Dreams, the third in the Fast Lane Romance Series. If you haven’t read Palm Springs Heat or Malibu Bride, check them out. I thoroughly enjoyed both of these fun and sexy stories.  Also, bookmark Dave’s blog, which is always entertaining.

PALM SPRINGS HEAT

MALIBU BRIDE
