The Perfect Length

I awoke to find a fab 4 star review from The Romance Reviews for my short erotic paranormal/horror story, On the Rocks. The review is really great, but one particular paragraph stood out for me:

"If the story were longer, I don't think it would have worked as well. It was the perfect length for this type of story."

On the Rocks and my other short erotic story Truth or Dare? have on the odd occasion received reviews and comments stating that "it was a shame they weren't longer." I can completely understand and respect a reader saying that since well, sometimes you do want to learn more about the characters and having readers state they would like one of my stories to be longer is a compliment - most of the time - because to me it means that the reader wants more, but I am very glad to hear that some readers do feel that these books are the perfect length for their type of story.

You see, both On the Rocks and Truth or Dare? are what I like to call brain nibbles. Gross, I know, but every now and again - and it is literally once in a blue moon - I get a story idea that is well, short and hot, straight to the point, and it doesn't have my brain working in over drive. Stories like these are a refreshing little break from other ideas that are huge and taking over my brain. You know the ones that are complicated and never ending; like the Blood Series. My Urban Fantasy series is big. The world is big. The cast of characters is big, and there are so many layers and things I'm still discovering as I go. Whereas On the Rocks and Truth Or Dare? were a bit of fun that didn't require too much thinking. They were a refreshing break.

Sometimes it is hard as a writer to know when to stop a story. I could quite easily extend both of these shorts and make them longer, but that isn't how I wrote them.

On the Rocks was a fun, sexy, twisted idea that I had and I love how the story flows and ends, and Truth or Dare? was a bit of hot, funny fun, which also shows that not everyone has to be in love or be charming and go about "asking someone out" the right way; there's no right way of expressing your feelings for someone. There is only the way that works for you as an individual, and Cameron and Dani had a pretty intense, crazy way of going about such things.

It's the same for my novella, Creak. It's not quite a horror/thriller. I don't really think it would fit in that genre because I don't, personally, think that it has the correct formula to be classed as a horror/thriller. I'm happy with the book, but even when I was going through the edits I found myself wondering if it should be longer, if more should happen, but then the characters would have shown me if there was more, it wouldn't have played out the way it did if there was meant to be more. So, I stick by that book, the way the story plays out and the length. I think it could be extended, but then it would feel like I was adding scenes for the sake of trying to make it fit with the formula of an actual horror book, and well, I'm happy to state that it is more of an erotic horror then an actual mainstream horror/thriller book.

So yes, sometimes stories are meant to be short because that's what is right for the characters. Not every story has to have a huge plot with tons of drama, or twists and turns. Sometimes it's good to have a little nibble and read something that you don't have to concentrate on so heavily. Sometimes you might find that the perfect length is 20 pages and that a short story can be a perfect read simply because it is a short story.

Have a great week!

Shameless Pimping for Christmas!

It's - almost - Christmas! How the heck did that happen? I don't know about anyone else, but I really don't feel very festive this year. Usually it feels like Christmas and I'm just not getting it this year. I think that feeling kinda fades the older you get, and well, let's face it kids make Christmas fun and magical because they get so excited for it. Well, I don't have children so I will have to settle with watching Muppet's Christmas Carol - love that movie! - when I get back from work tomorrow. Hopefully that will do the trick.

So, there is one day left and you might find yourself stuck on getting those last couple of presents or you are all finished and now feel like you deserve a little treat after all that running around, wrapping, and filling out Christmas cards.

Why not treat the ones you love, or yourself to an ebook? Press a button and you get it in an instant. No hassel, no more wrapping, nice and simple, and you can sink your teeth in straight away.

Talking about sinking your teeth in, did you know that the third book in the Eye of the Storm Series, Heart of the Wolf, by the lovely and talented Dianna Hardy is now available to purchase?

Heart of the Wolf

Blurb:

Lydia becomes ever closer to her three mates. However, with unrest all around, she is struggling to keep her wolves together for her first full moon, just twenty-four hours away.  

A trip back home for Ryan could bring much needed support for them all, but at what cost?

As The Trident close in on Ryan's pack, the pack itself becomes divided over Lydia's presence and Lawrence is encouraged to return as the Alpha. But they don't know his secret, and he's doubtful of his ability to protect them. Can he fulfil his rightful role, or will his efforts prove fatal?

Meanwhile, among the arid plains of Egypt, in a long-forgotten city, one man is pitting himself against the beast inside him in order to find salvation, only to realise, so much more is at stake than his soul.

Releasing the Wolf

Blurb:

Lydia Martin has always had dreams, the weirdest and hottest of them all involving a faceless, muscle-bound man that speaks like sin and smells like sex. Like any sane person, she always put the dreams down to an overactive imagination, coupled with a higher than average libido.

One night, however, instead of their usual, erotic encounters, she finds him in her dream, chained to a wall and screaming in pain. Not only that, but she thinks she recognises the building he's being held captive in as one that's just a few streets away.

Awaking with an irrepressible need to save her fantasy lover, Lydia decides to humour her dream self and head on over to where she thinks he's imprisoned. 

What unfolds is beyond even her wildest imaginings, as she's sucked into a dangerous and deadly world she never knew existed ... and it turns out that the man who inhabits her darkest fantasies, isn't the only one that needs releasing.

Cry of the Wolf

Blurb:

The full moon is a week away, and although Lydia is as excited as it gets to run as a wolf for the first time, she is also fighting to keep her independence while trying to understand her role in the lives of the three males that have come to rule hers: compassionate, tender Taylor; impetuous, fun-loving Ryan and distant, cold Lawrence.

There's also a fourth man in Lydia's life. Brendan, her previous "friend with benefits", is tirelessly searching for her. He's about to uncover things that should be kept hidden.

However, the testosterone surrounding her is the last thing she should be worrying about. Her family bear truths about her heritage she's not ready to face ... she may not have a choice, because the greatest danger to them all comes from within. The past never stays buried for long, and among the shadows of their species it is rising with a vengeance, threatening to tear their pack apart for good.

Are you a fan of Greek mythology? The supernatural; vampires, werewolves, witches and everything in between? Did you like the television series Charmed?

If you answered yes to the above then you will definitely want to give the Eternelles Series a try. Zee Monodee and Natalie G. Owens have created a fabulous and believable world where every sup exsists and lives alongside one another. Lots of hot men, and a great story line - with a very strong family connection at the heart of the plot - this series is a top read. And you're in luck, because book one, Inescapable is currently free on Amazon. How great is that?

Inescapable

(Eternelles: Book 1)

Blurb: 

An immortal born from an unlikely alliance...

Beautiful mythic Greek heiress Adrasteia 'Adri' Dionysios has roamed the world for millennia, taking her pleasure where she wanted. Until one night, when Fate drops a baby wrapped in fire into her arms. Motherhood is a formidable challenge, but so is figuring out the identity of a mystery man who makes her pulse race. 

A vampyre's obsession...

Seraphine 'Sera' Dionysios' origins are shrouded in mystery. Torn between a mother whose blood saved her life, and a man who now possesses her soul, the only thing Sera can still cling to is her heart.

One rule matters above all others: Always protect the portal...

When Evil comes to Adri and Sera's hometown of Shadow Bridge, a place where the mortal human world ends and the supernatural realm starts, it's up to them to stop a prophecy as old as time itself...or die trying.

Indomitable

(Eternelles: Book 2)

Blurb:

A war is coming... 

Immortal Adrasteia 'Adri' Dionysios has looked Death in the face...and realised her own father wants her perdition. Two-thousand-nine-hundred years after her birth, Greek god Dionysos is finally here to exact his revenge on his unlikely offspring. But Adri has more pressing matters to attend to. Her daughter appears to be the unwilling key at the heart of a plot to open the Shadow Bridge portal and let Evil return to Earth, and the creature she has given her heart to isn't playing a spotless game, either. 

Seraphine 'Sera' Dionysios awakens to the reality that she must take her destiny into her own hands. If only she could come out alive and unscathed from the prophecy she finds herself embroiled in, and if her mother would finally cut the umbilical cord... Not to mention that her maker has decided the time has come to claim her, and he is staking his territory by winning her body and her soul little by little. 

Unknown forces are at work to breach the portal and release a bloodthirsty kind that will enslave humanity and all other supernatural races. Besides, twin witches who can bring on the Apocalypse risk making their appearance, too. The world will come crashing down—unless Adri and Sera can stop the deviant plot before it's too late.

Will she let down her hair for the man of her fantasies?

Famous for her long, golden hair and beaming smile, Razel D’Punz is the hottest model in the industry.

Refusing to let her mother/agent’s strict rules stop her from spending time with the man of her fantasies, Razel quickly discovers that one night with Matthew isn’t enough....

And neither is the life she is chained to. Something will have to change if she is ever to get her very own Happily Ever After.

If the warped mermaid uniform isn’t enough, the fact that she can’t stop thinking about the club’s singer, Zenzie, is. Everything about the female gets Meghan hot, but when she finally gets her shot with the temptress, it turns out Zenzie isn’t as perfect, or as human, as Meghan thought.

Blurb: 

"What happens in Silver Creek, stays in Silver Creek."

After spending the summer as a recluse due to a bad break-up, Nicole Saunders agrees to go to The Heat Wave Festival with her best friends, Kacey and Tyler.

Along with three other friends they plan to take a shortcut through the small town of Silver Creek; the last thing any of them expected was to become lost and end up pulling in to a motel for the night.

The Creek Motel is isolated and the last place Nicole wants to be, especially after meeting the glacial owner, but her discomfort is soon forgot as she finally gives in to her feelings and asks Kacey and Tyler to spend the night with her.

A decision she quickly regrets when she discovers that their friend has mysteriously disappeared from her locked room in the middle of the night. Worried, Nicole presumes the worst, but quickly discovers that Jayne's disappearance is more disturbing than any of them could have guessed.

An odd day

Today was an odd sort of day. I woke up feeling quite happy and ready to crack down on some edits that need to be done for a co-authored project. That plan was quickly pushed aside by a visit from my aunt who got to share in my excitement from a fab phone call I wasn't sure I would get.

I got offered a new job! It's a million times better than the current job I am doing and I am thrilled that I got it.

After the phone call things went a little down hill because I decided to call my boss and give my two weeks notice; wanting to get the horrid task of quitting out of the way. He didn't take it well. I didn't think he would, but his reaction ticked me off.

Needless to say I am not looking forward to going in to work tomorrow after that conversation, but I will get through it with a smile on my face and a constant celebration in my mind. Two weeks and I am out of there. ^_^

On top of that "Creak" received its first review today; 3.5 fairies from Bex 'n' Books. It was an honest and much appreciate review and I am very grateful for it.

~ * ~

"Creak, by Elizabeth Morgan, is an enjoyable erotic thriller. The collection of main characters in Creak helps to provide an element of depth in this erotic tension fuelled short. Nicole, Kacey and Tyler have many endearing qualities, so much so that when events escalate in this novella, I was happily cheering them on and was likewise anxious and concerned.

The story moves fast, and as such so does the dialogue and interaction. There's no beating around the bush with these characters. Sometimes, reactions seemed a little too hasty and unrealistic, especially toward the end, yet overall, I was content with the heat rating and tense drama.
If you are looking for a sexy Ménage à trois novella, with a thriller plot to drive the story forward, then I'm sure you'll enjoy Creak. A sexy 3.5 fairies." - Bex 'n' Books

(Disclosure: Creak was received from the author for free in exchange for an HONEST and not necessarily positive review.)

I also go the dates for my "On the Rocks" book tour which has been set up by FMB Author Promotions. The tour will run on February 25th and 26th. I will be giving away a copy of "On the Rocks" as well as three swag packs filled with a multitude of goodies, and one lucky winner gets to pick any title they desire from Decadent Publishing back list. Sound good? Check out the dates and stops here.

So, how has your Monday been? Good? Bad? A little bit of both?

Questions for a character interview

So, I'm a little stuck for a topic at the moment. The guest posts I was talking about for "On the Rocks" take place this week, so I don't have any link to share with you yet.

I could opt to talk about my new sweet contemporary release, but I have already written a post over at my own blog and would end up repeating myself due to tiredness. So, if you're interested in learning about that book, just click here.

The only thing that leaves me with is asking you if you would be interested in asking my leading ladies from "On the Rocks" - Meghan and Zenzie - a question or two?

I am holding a character interview in a week for these two and am in the process of putting together a list of questions. Naturally, if you have had the chance to read "On The Rocks" then you may have a very specific question you would like to ask, but if you haven't that doesn't matter, because you can ask them anything at all. They're not shy, believe me.

So, if there is anything amusing or personal you can think of to ask either of these ladies, feel free to leave it in a comment to this post and I will add it to the list! :-D

EXCERPT:

Her warm breath skated down my neck causing a shiver to curl around my spine. She straightened then slid her hands through my hair. My eyelids fluttered at the feel of her fingertips stroking over my temples and along my hairline.
“I saw you watching us.”
I stared at her. “Excuse me?”
“Do you like watching?” She retrieved a few items from the vanity table, twisted two sections of my hair, and pushed the hair clips into place. “It’s all right. You can tell me, Meghan.”
My body tightened at the husky way she said my name. The knot between my legs pulsed under her piercing stare. I had no idea how, or even why she managed to get under my skin, but God, I wanted her.
“I’m not a pervert or anything.”
“I know you’re not.” She slid a chain of small red flowers into the black mass of my hair.
“I just heard a noise. I guess my curiosity got the best of me.” I shifted on my seat. “I’m sorry—”
“Don’t be. I liked you watching.”
My nails dug into my knees as her hands moved down my throat. Her skin like satin—her touch, soft. She ran her fingertips over the top of my breasts.
“I would have asked you to join us, if you hadn’t run.” Her gaze caught mine again while she slid her hand inside my skin-tone bra. “Will you run now, or will you do what we both know you want to do?”

On The Rocks

As you might know my dark paranormal erotic f/f short, "On The Rocks," was released last Friday. I don't know about other authors, but when I have a release I have a tendency to be on Amazon and other such sites checking for ranking and reviews and all sorts of stuff.

I was thrilled to find that on Friday evening "On The Rocks" was listed as number #100 in "books" > "Gay & Lesbian" > Literature > Fiction > Lesbian

It wasn't at that spot for long, but the fact that it was means the world to me. It's the first time any of my books have ever been in the hundred category let alone the top 100. So super awesome!

It has also received a silver star from All Romance Ebooks and has been listed as one of the best selling Lesbian titled.

Needless to say I am super thrilled. So, thank you so much to anyone who has purchased this little number, or who is thinking about buying it. I loved writing this story so I hope you enjoy reading it.

On that note, if you are interested in getting your hands on a copy you can head on over to "The Edge" blog and leave me a comment. On Nov 8th I will be picking one lucky commenter with the help of random.org and giving them a copy of "On The Rocks." You still have four days left to enter, so if you're interested just hop on over. - http://thedecadentedge.blogspot.co.uk/2012/11/theres-first-time-for-everything.html?showComment=1352156936480#c4714042143309469690

Over the next two weeks I'm going to be hanging out a couple authors threads talking about both "On The Rocks" and my next release "Stepping Stones," which is due out tomorrow.

I will be sure to keep you informed as I will be giving a couple of copies of both books away. Plus, Meghan and Zenzie, the leading ladies from "On The Rocks" will be getting interviewed, which should be fun. So, if you have any crazy questions you can think of, please feel free to leave a comment and I will make sure the ladies get the chance to answer you.

Hope you've had a great Monday!

Feature: On The Rocks by Elizabeth Morgan

I'm playing a crazy game of "catch-up" at the moment, and damn, I have fallen behind with stuff. *le sigh*

On a completely awesome note I have a date for my short and sexy erotic paranormal book, "On the Rocks." This baby is a part of Decadent Publishings "The Edge Erotica Series" and is due for release November 2nd, which is this Friday. *bounces around* I'm super excited since this is my first release with Decadent: my first short story, and my first f/f book. Lots of firsts!

So, I though that I would share a little excerpt with y'all today, and basically do a nice little feature type post in preparation for the release of this lil' number.

I hope you enjoy!

BIO:

Elizabeth lives in a small country village in Cheshire, England, with two cats. You will always find her on the computer, blasting music and writing away. She started life wanting to be an actress because she loved performing. She enjoyed nothing more than being able to make people laugh, to distract them from reality for a few hours. She studied Musical Theatre in college, but during her second year, her mind started to overflow with ideas for scripts and she began writing plays. Slowly over the following three years, she was writing more and more, channeling her imagination into more detailed manuscripts...

Here she is, years later, hiding away like a hermit, writing like crazy and loving every minute of it.

That's how things feel at the moment, which I'm kinda glad about since being busy pushes me to be busier. I know, it's sheer madness, but I find I'm more productive when I'm stupidly busy.

So, this is basically an update type post. The reason why I am nice and busy is because I have two books being released any time from now till the end of November. I'm still waiting for release dates so as soon as I know you will.

First release - which you may have heard me mention a couple of times - is my first every sweet contemporary romance novel, "Stepping Stones." This book is practically virginal compared to every other book I have written. There is no violence, no sex, there isn't even any swearing. Shocking, I know. :-P

I received the cover for SS this week and I have to say I am totally in love with it. I mean, it's just so pretty and Christmas themed.

There's nothing like a wedding to bring the family together . . . .

And if it wasn't her baby sister's wedding, Margaret West wouldn't be returning home at all.

Why else would she go back after six years, knowing full well that she has people to face, and explanations to give?

If her parents interrogation isn't bad enough, the fact that she has to be civil to her foster brother, Adrian, is. Best friends since childhood, they haven't spoken since he went to America . . . The day before Margaret was supposed to be getting married.

And to make matters worse, her ex-fiancé, William, is the Vicar who will be conducting her sister's wedding ceremony!

All want an answer from her, and they aren't taking "no" as one of them. Why did she run in the first place? Why has she been so angry with, Adrian? Why didn't she marry, William?

Margaret isn't even sure that she knows the real reason any more.

The next book I am excited about because it is my first release with Decadent Publishing, and is part of their "The Edge Series."

I have to say I had a lot of fun writing "On the Rocks." Mainly because a) it wasn't plot heavy, which is refreshing because it was nice to concentrate one a story that is b) sexy, but it is also a little dark and twisted, and c) it's my first F/F book, which again was refreshing and different for me. But I love both the girls, and I hope that you all will too.

Blurb:

“On the Rocks” is the hottest club on South Padre Island, and Meghan’s new workplace.

If the warped mermaid uniform isn’t enough, the fact that she can’t stop thinking about the clubs singer, Zenzie, is. Everything about the female gets Meghan hot, but when she finally gets her shot with the temptress it turns out Zenzie isn’t as perfect, or as human, as Meghan thinks.

Other than that I have been cracking on with my lil' WIP "Let Me In." The original idea was to have a sexy trilogy of short stories with an ongoing and light plot. But I have to admit the more I sit and work on this, and think about it, I'm starting to wonder if it would work better as one longer story. I guess I will just have to crack on with it and see what happens. I will keep you posted. :-)
