Who Dares Sins…



So, my Penn Halligan – my alter ego – book got a contract on Who Dares Sins. I’m quite pleased with that for a lot of Scorpionic reasons. Never ever tell a Scorpio they can’t so something because they will not only do it but remember you said they couldn’t. If you’re a Scorp you’re nodding your head ‘cause you know. Never challenge us.

Who Dares Sins is about two people who meet inadvertently through work. And no, god no, it’s not about anyone I know so calm down if you’re thinking it’s you. It’s all about me. Okay? Real life makes the best reading doesn’t it? The blurb – sorta, kinda finished or will be when I have my fifth coffee…

Two strangers meet in a hotel. The wild urge to touch and taste overwhelms them. Neither is worried about the consequences. Both want one thing. Wild, hot sex with a stranger. There’s only the here and the now. Having sex purely because they can is their objective. How can that be wrong?

But it’s very wrong for Lucinda McElroy when she find out the man she is supposed to outwit in business has seen her naked and crying out in need for his cock. Her credibility is shot to hell. Simon Prince isn’t worried about that. What started out as a sexy romp with a lusty lady has turned into a mission. He’s not going to allow Lucinda to deny that attraction between them. Fucking over the opposition takes on a whole new meaning.

Have I mentioned sin is good? I like it. Try some today.

The simulation of bums…


I got the cover for Penn’s book Sex by Numbers with Excessica. Penn is me…the sluttier side of me…I know, I’m quite shocked I can be like that...not. Anyway the cover is exactly what I asked for and a big thanks to the Excessica cover gods. I always ask for naked – in covers that is – there is only a specific person I would request naked at the moment - and I am never disappointed – in him - or the covers. I don’t do naked well myself. But I’m trying…on so many levels I am so very trying…but I digress…the cover has got a lot of reaction through Amarinda mail. It’s the bum…the arse if you like…or ass if you speak with a twang or derriere if you’re French…anyway the bum is a talking point. Why? Is it real? Does any woman have a bum like that? Are we all jealous? Maybe, though I rely on my cellulite arse to cushion me after life’s blows. Yeah, fast arsed works for me. I’ll leave simulation to others.

So there it is. I have a simulated bum on my cover and I’m pretty darned pleased. Hoping you are the same…

Cold blooded murder….


Police have recovered the body of a 16-year-old girl buried alive by relatives in an honour killing carried out because she reportedly befriended boys.

The girl's body was found in a sitting position with her hands tied, in a two-metre hole dug under a chicken pen outside her home in Turkey.

http://au.news.yahoo.com/a/-/mp/6767673/girl-buried-alive-for-befriending-boys/

I read this and was horrified and saddened and really bloody angry. When are the men in these countries, who are supposedly in their own tiny minds believing they are upholding some religious doctrine, going to be punished for cold blooded murder? That’s what it is. No angel or god or goddess or whoever you believe in can justify this. There is no honour in this. This is premeditated murder and I don’t doubt for a second the killers will cite Allah or their left testicle or their failure to get an erection as the reason.

I have the Koran at home. I’ve read it. Correct. I’m an atheist but I like to know about stuff. Maybe I have a different copy of the Koran but I don’t recall killing women because you could was one of the passages in there.

You know for men who take such murderous, draconian steps to bring women into line and under the thumb I have to say their eye for an eye way of thinking should apply to their own actions.

Atrocities against women affect all women. Just because someone is in another country to you or I doesn’t mean we can shrug our shoulders and be glad it’s not us. I’ve said it before and I will say it again – what effects one woman effects us all.

"According to our findings, the girl - who had no bruises on her body and no sign of narcotics or poison in her blood - was alive and fully conscious when she was buried."

The girl's father and grandfather have been arrested and jailed pending trial over her killing.

The father reportedly said in his testimony that the family was unhappy she had male friends.

I’m just so very angry and sad about this. What this poor girl suffered….

Desperado....


When I came through Townsville airport the other day – and by the way – for a small airport it’s very neat and bloody efficient – I got stopped and checked for explosives. I think it’s probably because I got pinged and had to take off all my rings – one on each finger bar the pinkies - and my watch and my bracelets and my necklace and my earrings. Then my bag got searched due to the fact I had a can of deodorant in there. So that was all very interesting and understandable. After that, I got pulled aside and tested for explosives. I was pretty darned pleased about this as it made me feel like I looked enough like a desperado that I might be dangerous enough to be a threat to society…though after seeing all the crap that came out of my bag during the bag search I’m not sure desperadoes carry that much underwear or earrings…anyway, the bomb guy was very nice and explained the whole explosive screening process to me and answered all my questions – I may have asked a few hundred. Why? Well, you never know when my next heroine may need to be searched for explosives…

Say it with flowers…


I bought myself some flowers today. Daisies. Why? I like daisies. They’re simple and beautiful. Why did I buy them? Two reasons. One – I’ve learned a lot from another person that has changed my way of thinking and I am grateful to them. Two – after a lot of crapaciousness those flowers remind me I’m still standing baby. Knock me down? I don’t think so….

Tell it like it is and accept nothing less.
