Because I am fascinated by the games people play to find and secure a lasting relationship, which is not always love. There’s the chase, the courtship, the falling, the surrender. That’s what I try to capture in my stories. Q.   Do you prefer a certain type of romantic hero? I adore smart, dashing gentlemen who aren’t afraid to live on the edge. They can be a bad boy, a billionaire, a prince, or a secret agent. That hint of danger just hooks me! However, I also love strong, independent women who aren’t afraid to fight for what they want, even love. Q.   Why did you write “Infamy?” ...

Today we have Maggie Blackbird to answer some questions about her new book BLESSED. Be sure to scroll down for some useful links! Q.1. Blessed is an intriguing title. Did you have much trouble coming up with it?   A.1. It's an Elton John song.  I chose it when Emery's father had a POV in the story, and before I gave Emery a brother and sister.  I kept the title because it was appropriate for Darryl and Emery's relationship. Q.2. Can you describe your heroes with three words each?   A.2. I sure can.  Darryl Keejik:  Passionate, emotional, driven.  Emery Matawapit:  Logical, level-headed, reserved. Q.3. Elevator pitch!

What do you love best about writing romance?   A.4. Developing the characters and their...

Today C. M. Simpson is visiting Promote Me Please After Dark to answer five curious questions about her new book Mack 'N' "Me: Origins. Q.I. Mack ‘n’ Me: Origins . The title implies this might be the first of a series. Is this so? A.1. Yes. This is the first book in a new series. I’m currently working on Book 2, while compiling an anthology of short fiction set around these characters. The short fiction was where the idea spawned, but the novel takes me back to before when those stories were set. It came as a bit of a surprise, too, because it’s the story I’m writing now, that I thought I was writing, when I started Origins . However, the characters took a quick step to the left, and told me they had some stuff they wanted to do, first, so I followed them through the course of Origins , and I’m glad I did. Q.2. Describe Mack in five words A.2. Big, shrewd, commanding, manipulative, deceptive Q.3. Who is “me” in Mack ‘n’ Me ? A.3. “Me” is Jocelyn Cutter,...

Please describe a supporting character from The Man with the Tool Belt The man falls in love, but does she love him? He first meets Roxy when the man is working his day-job, cleaning tables at a coffee shop. He thought she’s cute and gives her his card. He does a job for her, and they start dating, but she’s not ready to settle down with just one man. Q.4. Do you write with a grin, a gentle smile, an earnest frown or in a manic panic? All of the above. The best is the manic panic. I love it when the story takes over. I have no idea what’s going to happen, and I have to write...

  Promote Me Please After Dark welcomes Stefan Angelina McElvain to talk about - drum roll... THE SLUT FAIRY! Q.1. The Slut Fairy… is this a story for the romantic or the cynic? Or both? Definitely, not the romantic. The goal’s an adult humorous fairy-tale. Q.2. How did you name your main character ? This is a story by itself. We’d written a short story for a much younger audience and had requested a front cover with a picture of a fairy and a treasure chest. We received a draft cover and when my wife saw it, she said, “They’ve sent you the Slut Fairy and we’d asked for…” I had the title, the story followed. Q.3. Do you like the short form for writing or are you naturally a “long” writer? Short form. Long stories, I tend to break up into a series of novellas. Q.4. Can you give us a quote from the story? Plenty of naughty spells. This is one of them Transport us all to Ankou’s room, And then we’ll complete his impending doom. He and Gideon will be ...
