Dakota's Musings~February Edition

February

2010

Welcome to the frozen tundra of Iowa in the winter. I'm so sick of snow, freezing rain and ice, I could just spit. But on a plus note, February has arrived and it's the month of love and happily ever afters...or so the Hallmark cards assure me. This month I'm looking at my 15th Anniversary with my hubby. Damn where did the time go? Hard to believe we've been together that long and haven't killed each other.

School is going great! I made the President's List again which tickles me pink. I've also been using some of my hard learned skills to create covers for other authors and myself. Be sure to check out my new hobby page. It has some of my amuterish covers along with some of my better ones. After all there definitely is a learning curve with this kind of thing. I will admit each cover gets easier.

Happy Valentine's Day to everyone and I wish a quick return to spring!

Upcoming Releases

March 8th-Nisey's Awakening- my first full length BDSM Novel

March 15th- Fifteen Minutes to Live- a quickie about what happens if the world is going to end and you only have 15 minutes left to live.

April 5th-Happily Ever After-(Anthology) A Lover for Cache - This is an Excessica anthology which all the stories are based on fairy tales. Mine is a retelling of Beauty and the Beast with a twist!

A Moment Out of Time is supposed to be released sometime this month from Written Expressions. Not sure of the exact date yet, they keep changing it on me!

Works in Progress

Currently I have two stories going. I'm still working on the third book in my Venus trilogy while working on edits for Healer's Touch, the second book. So it's pretty slow and go.

I also am in the midst of writing a short story to be included in The Divine Matches anthology. It's a story about the Celtic God of War, Camulos and I'm having a blast writing. Later on it will be published as a stand alone book from Written Expressions.

February's Contest

Ah the month of never-ending love. Yep, it's February and as much as I'd love to say I've got this really sappy but sexy contest for this month, I can't. Instead of thinking of sappy love stories, I'm thinking of sexy shapeshifters. Yep them yummy men and women from stories like the Breed series by Lora Leigh and Were-animals from Sherilyn Kenyon's Dark-Hunters. So for this month I want to know who has the sexiest shapeshifters?

Email me at dakotatrace (at) gmail (dot) com with your answer and I'll enter you to win a free copy of Eternity, my very first shapeshifter book. I'll be drawing two lucky winners on February 28th.

January's Winner

A special thank you to everyone who entered my January contest. I got plenty of yummy answers for this last months contest from Han Solo to Corbin (Bruce Willis in the Fifth Element) for the guys. Selene from Underworld seemed to be really popular for the woman. Congratulations to Debra! She won a free copy of The Wizards of Venus: Book One, Magic Touch.
