Here lies your book boyfriend…naked.

OK, since I’m selling books – praise be to the romance novel fairies and adventurous readers/genre lovers/Amazon Kindle readers – I’m gonna offer the next little bit of my book Fiona Love for your delectation. The previous bit can be found in a blog post from last month titled: I’m for…

I won an ASBPE award last night!  Gold for Individual Profile for a piece in Diversity Executive, one of the magazines I run under my government name LOL Kellye Whitney. I’m feelin’ pretty proud right about now. It’s not a New York Times Best Seller note, but hey, I’ll take it! So, now…

I adore old movies. The rhythm of the dialogue, the fact that everyone, from the doorman to the butler, looks their very best in suits and hats and gloves, it all suggests a care and an attention to detail that’s markedly lacking today. Not that I’m one of these ‘everything…

My book Fiona Love is now for sale in the Amazon Kindle store. It’s $2.99. Here’s a sample: Let the skeptics tell it, Fiona Love was the hot new thing. One of those multi-hyphenates who’d suddenly popped onto the scene and was enjoying a rash of success. It wasn’t true.…

Watched Imagine Me and You last night starring Matthew Goode. He’s my latest cinematic stalking victim – meaning I’m watching everything netflix offers – may they burn in hell for raising their prices, corporate ghouls – so far I’ve seen Watchmen, Lookout, Brideshead Revisted, South of Grenada, A Single Man…

One of my train friends Shaan got engaged. I gushed over the ring and the proposal – he got down on one knee in front of her family – and came in to work with a smile on my face. It’s still there, actually. Our other train friend Damita rolled…

I’ve been scrapping via email with someone who honestly believes the romance genre has no value, that it debases women and get this, contributes to the degradation of literary genres in general.
