I finished the rough draft of my WIP this week–yay! And now, I’ll tackle the editing and revising. This morning, I’ve spent a lot of time researching Irish accents. The hero of this story hails from Dublin, and, though his accent has waned over the years, the Irish creeps into his voice when he’s upset. I did some research before I began the story, but now that I’m in rewriting mode, I want to make certain I’ve got the right expressions and slang. As part of my research, I watched lots of Irish accent videos on YouTube–and I’ve got to say, those accents are sexy. Am I the only one who loves a guy with an accent?

I also discovered that EVERLASTING BAD BOYS (featuring my novella, Spellbound, as well as stories by Shelly Laurenston and Noelle Mack) is up for pre-order at Amazon! The official release date for the book is listed as August 26, 2008.

Thanks again to everyone who entered my recent contests (both newsletter and blog!). I’ve set aside a few more ARCs to give as prizes–so stay tuned! More contests will be coming!

Enjoy your Sunday! I’m off to start editing my story.
