Never even watched the show, but yesterday, I came across a bunch of pictures which, in turn, spurned a new thing I’m starting. Every week, I’ll post some sort of Inspiration/Prompt picture or video or something. If I ever manage to find time, I’m totally turning the story ideas loose.

Here’s this week’s plot turtle  (and from this scene alone, I see four possible plot lines). -

I am a Student

Late last month, I was joined Romance Diva’s Mentorship program and was assigned to the fabulous Madelynn Ellis.

The mentorship has a specified time period, but from the type of writing workout Madelynn’s been giving me, I think I’ll forever follow Madelynn around like a lost puppy (she’s just too awesome to let go once the three months are up). I just hope I’m not wasting her time :? (I think I ask far too may odd questions and give far too many roundabout answers – I’m milking my newbie status for all it’s worth, folks).

 I did give pause, though, when she mentioned learning how to write a synopsis and stuff about print publication. *cough* I still haven’t completely let go of the idea of writing PW and then happily shoving the manuscript into a box and then under my bed.

I’ll get over the fear of submitting. One day. *g*

I <3 Eden Bradley. She’s a fantastic lady and one hell of a writer. Her new story, Spring Equinox released today – check out her message below!


My latest book from Samhain, SPRING EQUINOX, is out today! This is Book Two in my Celestial Seductions series, a four-book seasonal collection of contemporary erotic romance novellas, and each one has a special little twist.You can find Book One, WINTER SOLSTICE, at Samhain, on MBAM and on Amazon.
But back to SPRING EQUINOX. Would you like a little peek?

Once upon a time, two young lovers vowed to reunite…

Celestial Seductions, Book 2

After a bitter divorce, Isabel Asher returns to Isla de Margarita to find the only man she’s ever truly loved. Twelve years ago, on her eighteenth birthday, they made a pact to meet…if they both were free. Now she waits, wondering if Rafael Cruz will be her every fantasy come to life…or just a foolish dream.

Rafael never forgot their summer of love all those years ago. Since then, no other woman has measured up to the memory of Isabel in his arms. Their chemistry is still stunning, the sex is sizzling. The power of their memories is overwhelming. Yet it’s too soon to tell if she wants to be with him as much as he wants her.

As her time on the island grows short, their sensual play heats up, and includes a night with Rafael’s best friend. But they must decide if their passionate reunion is simply a celebration of the past…or a new beginning for lasting love.

* * *

To celebrate my release, I’m running a contest and posting an excerpt over on The Smutketeers blog, so come on by and check it out!

Five Important Questions Zora Gives Her Input

Posted in Uncategorized  by zorastout
March 1st, 2010

Early Bird or Late Owl? I’m usually up before 6am, so I’m going to go with early bird.

Favorite drink? It’s a tie between chocolate milk and mojitos. I love them both, but, ya know, I wouldn’t advise drinking them together.

Favorite Animal? Koala bears. They’re fascinating.

Place You Most Want to Visit? Australia. Surfing and accents, oh baby.

Apple Juice or Orange Juice? Orange Juice, hands down.

 

How about you? Do you agree with any of my answers?
