First, some awesome news! Three days after going live in the Kindle Store my first memoir, Being Naughty: The Life & Times of an Erotica Novelist, hit the Top 100 Bestsellers List in two categories. It was #26 in Sex books and #21 in Marriage books out of almost 2000 books in each category. And it stayed on the Marriage list for over 24 hours. Wow! I swear, I have the best readers/fans in the world. Yes, I do.

Okay, I have a treat for you today. This is an interview that ran last week on the “Sizzling Hot Books” blog. When I posted about it on Goodreads, Facebook, and Twitter, several of my readers said they loved it because it gives a more in-depth view of my writing process and my books than my other interviews.

Cool!

I have a holiday weekend gift for you. Yes, I do! This is an interview I did back in May. It’s a really funny one, and I had planned to post it on this blog in May. But then all hell broke lose (in a good way *lol*) when I parted ways with one of my publishers, and I entered my I’m-gonna-get-9-new-books-edited-in-30-days-to-go-in-the-Kindle-Store phase, which I just emerged from last week.

Yay!

So here it is. Hope you have a fab holiday! Make me proud and do something naughty.

Alrightyyyy!!!

If you wondered why my Wednesday blog post didn’t go up on Wednesday this is why. It takes 3-4 days for books to go live on Kindle once you enter them in the system. When I found out this HAWT series would be coming out last week, I decided to make my blog post about it. But I wanted to wait until all three of the books in this series were up on Kindle and on my site in pdf.

And now they are. Squeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

Dontcha love these hunky covers? Alex is AMAZING at everything she does for me, and her cover design is no exception. LOVE these!

For those of you who noticed, yes, I skipped my May newsletter. What can I say? Last month was like two months long. A fab month, but soooooo much happened. All of it good, but very hectic. And I was just too slammed to write a newsletter, so I thought I’d catch everyone up in this blog post.

The first of May my agent and I parted ways on friendly terms. And on May 2, I sent out a “Special Message” to all of you, explaining what had happened and why. I cannot thank you enough for your kind and generous response. I really felt your love at one of the lowest points of my career, emotionally and financially. I thank all of you from the bottom of my heart for the way you rallied around me. You are truly AMAZING!

Then on May 13, “A Vampire’s Kiss” went on sale in the Kindle Store. Yay! I’ve wanted to be in Kindle forever, so I’m thrilled about this. Sales have been strong and steady, so I’m a happy slut for sure.

As you know, I’ve been doing a gazillion interviews for book review blogs the last two months (love them!). And some of those interviews have appeared on this blog. But the one I’m posting today is made up of questions from YOU, my blog readers.

What fun!

Many thanks to all of you who posted a question last week for this interview. It was a blast answering them. Okay, here we go…!

If you follow me on Twitter then you know I’ve been having nightly conversations with a 5000-year old vampire named “Spicy_vampire.” Damn, do I have my work cut out for me with that chilly chick! *falls over laughing* Every time I try to make a party girl outta her she threatens to slap a chastity belt on me. HORRORS!

One night she tried to deter me from coming down to visit her by mentioning there were a couple of hunky Weres guarding her bed during the day while she slept. Alrightyyyyy! You know me. Love those shifters! Ever since then I’ve been wondering how well those yummy guys know how to use their “tools.” *licks my naughty lips*

Jackie Hussein is one of our buds on Twitter. She also has a book review blog called “Insane Hussein.” Believe it or not, Jackie and I share the same birthday. Totally cool! Jackie often joins in on the conversations I have with Spicy as I try to loosen that vamp up and talk her into heading out to Vegas with me to party with some hunky strippers.

First I wanna thank everyone who responded to the Special Message I sent to my email list Sunday night. What can I say? I was totally overwhelmed with your loving response. Damn, I’m a lucky woman to have you guys! Yeah, it’s been a rough 15 months for me, and that’s the first time in 23 years I’ve ever had to send out a message like that. But this career-clusterfuck I’m caught in is just too big for me to handle without your help. Plus, I knew many of you would be pissed if you found out I was in serious trouble and didn’t tell ya. So I did.

At any rate, I totally appreciate everyone who emailed and bought books to show your support for me and my writing. I truly have the BEST readers/fans/friends in the world. No doubt about it!

Second, if you aren’t on my email list then you might not know the 3rd installment of

An awesome interview with me appeared last Friday on the “Books, Books, and More Books” blog (www.ruthiesbookreviews.blogspot.com). Ruth Schaller did a fab job with her questions! If you missed my tweets about it last Friday I thought you might like to take a look at it here.

I’ve done like seven interviews so far since “A Vampire’s Kiss” was published on March 9. The wild thing is even if some of the same questions are asked (and they are from time to time) my answers are always different. Why? Cause it just depends on what kinda mood this slut is in: slutty, sluttier, or sluttiest. No wonder one of my fans said she loves reading these interviews since she learns something different about me every time. Now you know why. lmao!

Speaking of that, I’m posting most of these interviews on my book site (”Interviews” button at http://www.avampskiss.blogspot.com) if you’d like to read more of them. And I just finished another interview on Thursday night that will go live May 5 on a vamp review blog. I was wide open that night, so it’s the sluttiest one yet. No kidding. I’ll tweet everyone to let you know when it goes live.

A review of “A Vampire’s Kiss” and a cool interview with me came out on Friday on the Maybe Tomorrow? website (http://www.xxbetty.blogspot.com). Beth Tyler did an awesome job with both, so I thought I would run them today as my Tuesday blog post.

Just in case you’re wondering, I did NOT behave myself in the interview. Not my fault! I’ve got strippers-on-the-brain syndrome. Although I‘d much rather have them on another part of my bod. Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrr….!

Short blog post today. I just wanted to let everyone who reads this blog (and isn’t on my email list) know that the next issue of “A Vampire’s Kiss” came out on Saturday.

Yay!

That’s right. Vol.1, No.2 (Chapters 4-6) is on sale NOW!

At the end of Vol.1., No.1 we left Sara sitting in Dray’s lap. But that lusty Green Witch always gets her man, and she WANTS Dray. Keep a cold drink handy. Vol.1, No.2 is wall-to-wall sex!

Okay, you’ve been warned… *sex-obsessed grin*
