Life, writing romance

Everyone loves a soldier…

I’ve had this fantasy since I began seriously writing romance in 2006. I’ve always wanted to walk through an airport and see a traveler reading one of my books, like I always see them reading James Patterson, or whatever the current, hot new bestselling release is (according to the NY Times). Well last night, the soldier kind of made my dreams come true. My Army consultant is stateside for leadership training and…this is amazing, I still can’t believe it…while flying to Fort Benning in Georgia, he saw a woman reading my book in the airport! It was the first one he helped me write back in 2007, A Few Good Men, while he was a tank commander in Ramadi and I started seriously penning real life military missions into my romantic fiction, thanks to him. He told the woman he knew me, and that I support his platoon, but he didn’t tell her he helped me, that the missions in the book were actually his. He didn’t think she’d believe him.

Unridden Rated Orgasmic by Just Erotic Romance Reviews

You can’t please everyone. That is what I tell myself anyway. Then, sometimes, a reader or a reviewer really gets it. T. S. Peters from Just Erotic Romance Reviews really got UNRIDDEN. This reviewer got Jenna the heroine, as well as the hero and the story, which means more than I can say because so much of me is in Jenna. The mediocre writer whose career is dictated by forces outside of her control, who takes reviews and criticism too much to heart, who’s been more than once forced to turn to strangers for help only to have them turn into more in her life. The review is very long but more than worth the read, however I believe fair use laws only allow me to paste a bit of it here, not the entire thing. It can be found in full now in the JERR Newsletter (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/justeroticromancereviewsnewsletter/) available at their Yahoo group. It will eventually be posted at the JERR website, though there is usually a bit of a lag.
