Author Sandra Sookoo Week: Day 3 - Interview

ABOUT YOU

JJBC~How did you get into writing?
SS~I got into writing when I was a kid and needed an escape from “real” life. Creating worlds and making characters became so fascinating, I kept up with it until I finally became a published author.

JJBC~Is writing your full time job?
SS~I do try to write full time. A few years ago I was laid off from the real estate industry and decided to give “serious” writing a go. I’m now getting ready to start my fourth year in the publishing industry and can’t wait to see what happens.

JJBC~What’s a typical writing day for you like?
SS~Usually in the morning I take care of busy work (usually promo stuff) then start writing in the afternoons or evenings. A couple days a week are set aside for errands or anything else not writing related. I generally try not to write on the weekends but sometimes it doesn’t work out that way.

JJBC~Do you set a daily writing goal?

Sandra Sookoo Week: Day 2 Tuesday Teaser

 Blink

Which man is her destiny? Charlotte Jackson knows everything about her small portion of the galaxy but nothing about the secrets of her heart.

Her life is as unstable as a supernova when her ship—the Copernicus—is visited by a blue-haired alien who calls himself Garreth. He tells her he’d like to build an alliance with Earth to improve the dire problems of both their planets. As if intergalactic space negotiations weren’t complicated enough, Charlotte finds herself more than a little attracted to the man who she should be thinking about in only the most professional terms. This does nothing to make her second-in-command—and would-be lover Jax—any more relaxed about the whole cooperation.

Guest Post: Emily Ryan-Davis + Giveaway

Excitement! Breathlessness! Exclamation points!

Hi, readers of Jo Jo’s book reviews blog! I’m here this week to talk about my audio books, one currently available and its sequel scheduled to release Tuesday, September 21. Jo Jo had opportunity to listen to MATING CALL and I certainly hope she enjoyed it enough that she’s not embarrassed by my presence here today. ;)


Since book two (DRAGON DANCE) is becoming available soon, I’m going to refrain from talking about either title singularly and instead focus on the experience of hearing my stories instead of reading my stories.

Listening to MATING CALL and DRAGON DANCE…wow, what an experience. I blushed, I patted myself on the back, and I even found my stomach churning during moments of high tension. Hearing the narrator deliver my words with inflection and punctuation, the rise and fall of her voice, her hissing syllables whenever my characters hissed—I at times felt like I was walking through the world (possibly because I was working out on a treadmill while listening) instead of sitting and experiencing.

If you’ve ever listened to a well-acted audio book, you know what I mean: you can hear and see and practically touch what’s going on. A well-written book provides the same experience, but somehow hearing a story in a strong, enthusiastic voice changes it a little. I almost never blush when my characters are getting naked on the page, but my cheeks were flaming as they got naked in my ears. What an experience, feeling like I could actually reach out and touch Salim’s bare chest. ;) Definitely an experience I want to repeat.

-MATING CALL is the first of a paranormal romance serial trilogy crammed full of dragons both solid and ephemeral. Books two and three, DRAGON DANCE and DRAGON BOUND, will be releasing in September and November of this year (don't forget Tuesdays are discount days at AudioMinx).

Mating Call
by Emily Ryan-Davis
Dragon Queen: Book One


Cora Phillips has witchcraft in her blood, but she's convinced she inherited the recessive rather than the dominant trait. Her mother and sister are the real heiresses to the Lune tradition; Cora has neither the interest nor the inclination to take up the Dragonkeeper mantle. Years ago, she left the New York City Witch lifestyle to the other women in her family, and said goodbye to all the velvet and lace. However, during a moment of insomnia-induced insanity, she agrees to come back to celebrate Christmas/Winter Solstice with her family.

It comes as a shock to all three women when Cora, through clumsy fumblings to "get in touch with her goddess" at her sister's urging, calls a pair of ancient dragons into her meditation circle.


Cora swears it's a mistake. Her mother swears it's the correct course of events. Eventually, every Dragonkeeper issues the call to mate. Problem is, nobody expected Cora to summon even a single dragon, let alone two.


Before long, the dragons' guardians come knocking, literally, and ruin any hope of politely apologizing and returning the creatures.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Dragon Dance

by Emily Ryan-Davis

Dragon Queen: Book Two

Self-preservation, not cowardice, drove Cora Phillips to run from the supernatural intrigues surrounding Salim Aridi, Greg Cho, and their respective dragon aspects. She spent a year rebuilding a sense of normalcy, and she learned to cope with the risidual nightmares that followed her brief collision with modern myth.


The moment Salim loses control, however, the dragons demonstrate just how meaningless human distance really is and return to remind Cora that dragon ties are not so easily broken.

Guest Post with Author RG Alexander + Giveaway

How I Grew Up To Write Erotic Romance…Wait, I Grew Up?

For most of my life, if you’d asked anyone around me what I was destined to be, you’d get a handful of varied answers: singer, hallmark card creator, caregiver, dreamer. No, the dreamer label doesn’t usually come with an official job for the resume or a regular paycheck, but they would say it just the same—often with worried expressions and fingers crossed that I wouldn’t walk absently into oncoming traffic because my head was in the clouds.

I’m one of those people who wanted to be everything when I grew up. Even things that weren’t supposed to be real. Like mermaids. I really wanted to be a mermaid. I would tell you all the training and breath holding and preparation I made for the day I would finally learn I was a lost princess from an underwater Atlantis—but then you’d just think I was strange.

On dry land, I loved to read. It was my sport of choice. And when I wasn’t reading, I was daydreaming. What if I could fly to school? What if the teacher was actually an alien? You get the idea. When I discovered romance, then paranormal romance, I was in heaven. Two of my favorite subjects together in one delicious package? How could you lose?

Here is the weird thing—for all the daydreaming I did, I rarely wrote them down. Oh, I tried once or twice, a chapter or a few paragraphs, but then I got frustrated and threw them away. I told myself they were mine, they were strange, and only my ability to rhyme with a Seussian affinity was fit to be shared with the masses.

In a way, through the years, I did follow my dreams. I did everything. I sang in smoky blues joints and dark corner bars, I worked as a nurse in an Alzheimer’s ward and in hospice, I did a thousand and one jobs that made my resume start to resemble a novel all by itself. Waitress, check out girl, secretary, telemarketer, office cleaner, bartender. I even went back to school to study my favorite passions, mythology, religion and archaeology.

I would have, no doubt, continued my strange, transient career path indefinitely, if it weren’t for one thing. My husband. He watched me devour one romance after another, wishing I could write something that affected people in the same way. Made them smile, opened their minds, warmed their…hearts. He also *gasp* listened when I imagined out loud. I had an idea for a story—Lifting the Veil, my first book out with Ellora’s Cave—and he thought it sounded pretty darn good. One day he sat me down and said we would have to tighten our belts, but we could do it. Said he wanted me to stay home and sit in front of the computer until I’d written my story. He was kind of adamant about it.

How could I say no? And once I started, well, I couldn’t stop. As of August I’ve been typing away for four solid years, and I have no intention of stopping.

I love world building and putting a new spin on my favorite myths, or creating my own. And all of my past career choices have helped me with my characters. My heroines, often, have a little bit of my own experiences snuck in. I also love paranormal heroes. Or heroes that are somehow thrust into paranormal situations, like the ones in Possess Me, my debut Berkley Heat anthology.

The erotic part? That kind of just happened. Everyone knew I was a dreamer with a vivid imagination…but they had no idea.

Surprise.

Wicked Bad
Releases Tuesday Sept. 14th 2010 (tomorrow, YAY!)

Harrison Jennera Abbot was born with a silver broomstick in her hand. Heiress to a Magian dynasty. Good witch extraordinaire. She’s sick of it. She longs to be human, normal like her friend Callie. Or, uh, as normal as Callie ever gets.

She thought running away would be an adventure, but three months playing human has given her a new point of view. Just as she’s ready to return home, though, the real adventure begins. In short order, she’s attacked, saved, kidnapped…and seduced.


Jacob and Ric are convinced that Harrison is the destined third of their triad—if they can convince her they won’t use her as a sexual chew toy, or a social stepping stone. Before they can make her beg for the match, though, she needs to know the truth about who tried to kill her. And why her brother keeps sending her cryptic psychic messages.


Hard as it might be on their Magian male pride, they might have to let her go…trusting that in the end, she’ll choose them.

Warning: Contains an accidental orgasm, crimes of passion, sentient ropes, and powerful witches being magically delicious. Oh, and a charmed shower that only lives to please you.

Possess Me
Out NOW!

In the Big Easy, there’s a legend women long for: a sexual voodoo spirit who can fulfill their darkest fantasies. And in these three steaming-hot novellas, he helps three New Orleans couples achieve the ultimate satisfaction…

Release Me

When Allegra heads down to New Orleans to heal her wounds, she never expects to lose her heart to such a quiet, troubled man as Rousseau. She’s even less prepared for the scorching, sexual spirit within him—and what he can do to her…

Reclaim Me

Ben has loved Michelle as long as he can remember. But his beautiful artist has a way of running away from life—and what the pair could be. Leave it to the infamous sexual spirit to help Ben prove to Michelle where she belongs: in his embrace…

Redeem Me

It’s All Saints’ Day, the one day the voodoo spirit can walk the world in the flesh. When he bumps into Bethany, she might just be the reincarnation of a girl he once loved. Passion ignites, but can he overcome past mistakes and fall in love again?

Guest Post & Giveaway with Author Dakota Banks

Happy Wednesday everyone! Today I have a special treat for you here on JoJosBookCorner. Author of Dark Time, and new Release Sacrifice in The Mortal Path Series, Please help me give a warm welcome to Dakota Banks *round of applause*

When I was writing suspense novels, I'd sometimes get my heroine stuck somewhere and I'd think, "If only she could... " read minds, fly, run up the side of a building, or run that evil guy through with a sword and not dial 911. And I'd tell myself that I couldn't do it because it didn't fit in the real world I was writing about. Oh look, in her latest police procedural, the villain trapped on the rooftop sprouts wings and off he goes! Although I did have some leeway in my books because they included virtual reality and artificial intelligence, it wasn't enough for me. Finally I decided to stretch my own wings and move into a genre where world-building was not only expected but mandatory. I was a science fiction and fantasy fan when I was young, and enjoyed reading urban fantasy, so it wasn't tough to know what I should try.

I needed a new name to keep my new work separate from my techno-thrillers, so I borrowed a name of a character in an unsold book: Dakota Banks. It seemed right that as I reinvented myself, I took a name from my own fiction. There was a practical aspect to it, too. Banks is near the beginning of the alphabet and would place my books close to the beginning in a bookstore section. It didn't take long before I had a character and story line I loved, but it took a lot of research and trying out different versions of the Mortal Path before I was ready to write about it.

One thing that I decided early in the process was that I was going to do something unusual in urban fantasy in two ways. First, the world is based on ancient Sumerian mythology, an area that is not heavily used. This takes the Mortal Path books out of the Judeo-Christian background present as the basis of most urban fantasy, and leaves out heavily-written elements such as vampires, werewolves, and witches. Instead, the concepts in the Mortal Path books might be familiar to a reader from the Sumerian culture 5,000 years ago--except that they're not written in cuneiform! The second thing is: once a thriller writer, always a thriller writer, so it seems. From the beginning I envisioned the books containing a thriller plot embedded in each one, full of action, adventure, and exotic locations.

The thing I like best about writing urban fantasy is world-building, something that has to be vivid and able to withstand the needs of a series. My idea is that I set out a world different from our reality, yet overlapping our reality in enough ways that my characters could easily pass you in the street and you wouldn't notice anything unusual. Readers accept the world and play along with it, if done right, but the underlying features of the world can't keep changing. So from the first book in a series, the world is defined and the author has to live within it, even if it would be convenient to keep throwing in new features to solve plot problems.

The second book in the Mortal Path series, Sacrifice, brings such strong challenges to Maliha Crayne that she considers returning to ways of her evil past, as the Black Ghost. Two hot immortals contest for her heart, and she returns to the deadly desert in Central Asia, the one she knew wasn't through with her. I'd like to offer a small passage from Sacrifice. To set the scene, Maliha has traveled into the Taklimakan Desert, crawled down a tunnel into a rock outcropping, and found a room she's visited once before.

------------------

The pool, wisps of steam rising intermittently from its smooth surface, filled the width of the chamber. There was no way across to the wall without going through the pool. In spite of its placid surface, the water was superheated. The layer of sand underneath the water sucked down anything resting on it for more than two seconds. The sand wasn't a natural, passive thing. She knew from experience that the feel of it against her fingers was like grasping tentacles, a very un-sand-like quality.


Sitting cross-legged at the edge of the pool, Maliha leaned over and plopped in a throwing spike from her belly bag, thinking that maybe the sand didn't behave the same way all the time. Two seconds later, the sand pulled the spike down so forcefully that it churned the water, sending bubbles up that fizzed and steamed when they reached the surface.


Okay. Consistency is a big thing here.


She took a piece of paper from the pocket of her loose trousers, a paper that had been folded and refolded so many times it was tearing at the creases. On it was a drawing of the inscription on the back of the tablet, the words that had sent her to this place. She studied them again: go to sand.


I went to sand. I crossed the desert. Now what?


A thought hit her like an unnatural blast of frigid air in the desert. Goose flesh rose on her arms and her frightened mind pushed away the terrible possibilities unfolding in her imagination.


No, oh no, surely not …


She saw what she had to do. If she wanted to follow the cryptic clue, to find out what awaited her in Anu's cave, she didn't have to go to the sand but into the sand.


This sand, in front of her.


Maliha had to step into the boiling water and let the sucking sand in the pool claim her. Her mind rebelled against it. All of her logic told her that it was a trap. She would die in the sand from mortal injury, or be trapped there until her body aged and died. Yet Anu was telling her to do exactly that, if those were Anu's words on the tablet.


There was no rational way to decide. It would have to be a leap of faith.

Guest Post: Erotica....From A Man's Perspective with Scott @truedeadman

Today i would like to welcome Scott Romanski AKA @Truedeadman. He has stopped by today to give us his opinion on Erotica...From a Man's Perspective. So please help me welcome Scott!!! *clap clap clap*

Erotica....From A Man's Perspective.

Erotica is defined as works of art, including literature, photography, film, sculpture and painting, that deal substantively with erotically stimulating or sexually arousing descriptions. Erotica is a modern word used to describe the portrayal of the human anatomy and sexuality with high-art aspirations, differentiating such work from commercial pornography. Basically it is written to arouse the reader...and probably the author as well.

I first discovered the genre after reading Karen Marie Moning's Darkfever. I know you are saying to yourself..."that's not erotica!" I know it would probably fit into the "urban fantasy" niche, but hear me out. While reading the novel, I came across two sexually driven scenes. I, of course, was aroused by these scenes, and sought out Karen's official message board. There I discussed those scenes with other "Moning Maniacs" who opened my eyes to the Erotica genre, including passing along recommendations as to what authors wrote it, and who wrote what.

There are various styles/levels of erotica...Straight, GLBT, BDSM, etc.. I personally don't read those that are M/M. I have no issue with those works, i just don't particularly enjoy reading it. I mostly go for the "straight" erotica, although the BDSM can be fun to read, so long as it does go to the completely depraved side, which can be a real turn off and a DNF on the book.

I have read some Megan Hart, who I've found quite compelling. Her stories aren't just about "getting to the sex". They are wonderful stories, that without the sex scenes, would be great reads and be fulfilling. I've read some of the samples of the Price Sisters novels and have two of their e-books, which i still need to read...life has been quite busy lately. Their novels are fantastical, with all manners of "creatures" whom all seem to love the game of sex.

Why do i read this genre? Good question. I've been asking myself that for some time now. Let's face facts.....obviously, I'm a guy and i like sex. That is a natural reason. However, if it was just the sex...i could watch porn and get all the sex i wanted without the complications of story. So where does that leave me? It comes back to the story. If the story is intriguing, then it is a worthy read. If the story draws you in and makes you want to continue reading it, it doesn't matter if their are sex scenes in it. That is my perspective. I'm out for a good story, one that i can see in my mind's eye while i am reading. If there are some sex scenes that stimulate me in other areas....well...that is just a great bonus effect.
