2013

Before I reflect on my year… first things first: e-mail me (harperbliss at gmail dot com) for an ARC of Summer’s End in return for an honest Amazon and/or GoodReads review! Now… 2012 was so amazing it made me wonder if things could get even better, and then they did. 2013 was a really good […]
NEW RELEASE: A Christmas to Remember

I’ve decided to celebrate the release of A Christmas to Remember with an excerpt frenzy. Instead of me going on about why I love these stories (and their authors) so much (variety, skill, talent and all that hotness being the main reasons), I will let the stories speak for themselves. But first, here’s the blurb: […]

Q&A: Laila Blake on Driftwood Deeds

It’s no secret that I have a serious soft spot for Laila Blake. As a consequence, it should come as no surprise that today, on the release day of Laila’s novella Driftwood Deeds, I am beaming with pride. Some authors just have that magic spark, that turn of the phrase, the right words to draw […]
Things I Did This Week #14

– Spent four days in a house in Phuket with a bunch of gay men. – Was very surprised by the fact that nothing untoward happened and I was in bed every day by midnight (no joke.) – Made them watch Miranda (they loved it.) – Added a good chunk of words to Summer’s End […]
The Hottest Women On My TV – Part 3

1. Melinda May Obviously, the biggest mistake the producers of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. made (apart from naming their show that) was not choosing Agent Melinda May as their main character. I tend to start snoozing every time Agent Coulson appears on my screen, only to be rudely but pleasantly awakened every time Melinda starts kicking […]
Happy birthday, Fool for Love

Time really does fly when you’re having fun. I was puttering around in my Amazon KDP account yesterday and my eye fell on the day I uploaded Fool for Love. That happened to be 19 November 2012. I had no way of knowing this at the time (all I knew was that I desperately wanted […]
Things I Did This Week #13

– Did a search on my blog and came to the horrific conclusion that I haven’t done one of these lists since March! – Realised consistency is not my strong suit (well, re-confirmed more like, because I already knew that, but sometimes, because of my lack of consistency, I tend to forget.) – Finished the […]
On typing ‘The End’

A quick note to those of you who have been following the progress of Summer’s End. Just before noon today, I typed ‘The End’. The first draft is now finished. It took a little bit longer than anticipated, but it was so satisfying to complete the story. The word count at the moment is just […]
