How I Stumbled Into M/m Romance

Posted by Christoarpher , 20 May 2011 · 815 views

The border between m/m romance novels and m/m literature more generally isn’t always clear, and oddly enough I stumbled over a few m/m romance titles while looking at m/m lit on Amazon.com. One of them intrigued me, so I put it on my Christmas list. It certainly wasn’t great literature, and in places it wasn’t even that well written, but it amused me....

Guest blog spot and why rowing is better than sex

Posted by Christoarpher , 20 March 2011 · 570 views

I’m up as a guest blogger on the wonderful Rie McGaha’s An Author’s Tale with a piece on why rowing is better than sex.

Seriously.

It’s (ahem) up.

What? You thought I was saying rowing was really better than sex? I suppose you’ll...

Sally Field moments

Hi, everyone,

Here are some updates on various things.

Author?s chat

First all, I apologize to anyone who went to find me last Saturday. The chat on Facebook lasted all of about ten minutes and consisted almost entirely of me frantically communicating with Dreamspinner?s social-media boffin about just why exactly it was that I couldn?t post...

It just hit me

Posted by Christoarpher , 25 February 2011 · 725 views

Rocking the Boat will be published on Monday. I’ve been busy the last two weeks with a freelance proofreading job, and while there were parts of that job that made me grumble, now that I’m done with it, I realize I should also be grateful to it: it kept me from freaking out about the upcoming release.

Now the last-minute jitters have hit me in...

Okay, I’ll admit to checking the Coming Soon webpage feverishly. But all my anxiety has been rewarded. My book is now listed on the Coming Soon webpage and it can be placed on one’s Wish List for sale the moment it’s released on 2/28/11.
