On May 23 find me throughout the day (most likely after 3 pm CST) at the Pagan Pack’s Here Comes the Sunfaire. I’ll be there talking about Jupiter Gardens, Jupiter Gardens Press (including our romance imprint Pink Petal Books), and I have donated an oil diffuser/burner to the “Broom Closet” as a door prize. I hope to see you there!

I think I’m going to start something new on my blog–FANTASTIC FRIDAY! Because you know, there just isn’t enough kitten cuteness in the world. So, here’s the latest “cute kitten” picture from Tenzin, the formerly feral kitten. He’s about six months old. He thinks that my glass of water (and yes, I drink out of care bear and smurf glasses we got during the 80’s) is his personal water bowl.

So here is today’s dose of kitten cuteness! May you have a fantastic Friday!


I received word this evening that The Wrong Woman will release from Noble Romance on June 2! Boy four releases in like one month (from April 30 - June 2). It’s going to be busy….

Now that the weather is warmer and I have my flower boxes planted, one of the best things I like to do is go outside to my deck with my laptop and write.

I work from home. I love it, but it also means that I spend a large amount of my day in my den. It’s a nice den. I have inspirational pictures of all types (many I picked up at science fiction conventions, such as the Jody Lee print of the Winds of Fate cover art and the portrait of Londo and G’Kar) on the walls. My desk faces the window, and for the first time since I’ve planted them, my lilac bushes just underneath are blooming. (which may explain why my allergies are acting up).

But there’s just something about going outside, getting out of my den to write.

Mission: Raw (Live Action Hero #2)
By Mary Winter
m/m, contemporary, urban fantasy action figure come to life
novella
RELEASE DATE: 05/02/2008

Blurb: Too late, Dean arrives for his windsurfing vacation and realizes his “secluded” Caribbean villa isn’t. He has a neighbor who just happens to look exactly like a certain action figure left with Adrian’s lover, Mack. Finding out his neighbor shares Dean’s passion for extreme sports only reopens wounds Dean had thought healed.

Sawyer knew his next mission would be just as exciting as his last. So when he finds himself on a Caribbean island with a hot man and nothing to do but lie on the beach, he thinks he’s in heaven. Except, Dean doesn’t believe Sawyer’s story.

What’s an action figure come to life to do? Whatever it takes to prove that he’s real and so is the passion between them.

By Mary Winter
m/m, contemporary, equestrian
short novel
RELEASE DATE: 04/30/08

Blurb: When a torrid affair ruined his rodeo career, Rock Brennan turned to the sport of reining. Ready to reclaim his position at the top of his chosen sport, Rock arrives at the United States Equestrian Team’s training camp ready to focus on his riding - until he meets his too-sexy-for-his-breeches roommate, dressage diva Andreas Thorpe.

Andreas has always had a thing for cowboys, and Rock is no exception. What starts as a training camp fling quickly becomes something more, but Andreas’ lifelong need for control keeps him from giving his heart to one sexy, gay rodeo cowboy.

But there’s one thing the cowboy has taught the dressage rider - in love and life, sometimes you’ve got to cowboy up to face your fears.

Just a hint…

1. I loved De’s character in I’m Okay, You’re Dead (awesome title too!). How did you get the spark for her story?

I love mysteries but always wanted more of the why behind the crime. Not just the motive but what made that person a criminal? And one day it just clicked if I made the main character psychic with a background in psychology, she’d have a new level of access to the internal workings of the criminal mind. De’s very smart but communicates in a very direct and sarcastic manner that helps her diffuse tension. Plus it’s a great challenge as a writer. How do you surprise a psychic?

Just wanted to wish everyone a super week. I have two releases this week and am super excited…

COWBOY UP(and boy is he up. *wink*) releases 04/30 from Ellora’s Cave. This is a m/m novella about two hunky horsemen who want one thing…well two things… gold medals and each other.

And if you want more action figures look no farther than LIVE ACTION HERO #2 MISSION: RAW coming 05/02 from Changeling Press. This is Sawyer & Dean’s turn, and find out how Adrian’s “bad boy” friend meets his match.

Enjoy….
