I'm JD (she/her) doing revisions on #LauraAndTheHurricanes (out August 27) before I send it to the editor. JD = bi leads.
1st line: The steakhouse at the edge of town had an abandoned feel to it in the afternoon, like it would have been perfectly at home as an old west saloon.

There was no telling what kind of surprise the reverse werewolf had for her, but Laura looked forward to every tomorrow she had with the pack to find out.

Weird comps for #LauraAndTheHurricanes
It's got the motor oil of a revving motorcycle with the danger of an incoming hurricane by the light of a full moon while gripping a pipe wrench.
Someone somewhere is playing Creedence Clearwater Revival's "Bad Moon Rising."

“You took her to the Hurricanes?” Rita asked, a tone of anger coloring her voice.
“No, I did not.” Laura clenched her fingers at her side. “The road travels in both directions..."

I have two goals this week that are firm:
A) Finish this draft of #LauraAndTheHurricanes
B) Send my proof notes to the editors of #BraveNewGirls no later than May 18th.
I had last week off, but I'm back at the job today. Oddly, that might help me succeed because of routines.
What do you hope to accomplish this week? Can be anything, big or small! Let us know so we can cheer you on!

Note: "Mountain" not in story. Using the next best thing.
Line: “No. We go running in the hills far out back. We’re safe and away from people.”

With her head bowed low, Bonnie started saying something Laura didn’t understand. There were probably infinite worlds inside the werewolf, and Laura decided that she was going to open them up. She didn’t know how yet, but she would.
“Help,” Bonnie finally said.

In #LauraAndTheHurricanes, Laura and Audrey become girlfriends by the end of it. They are a bi/pan pair.
It's important because bi (and pan) people exist. They're still bi no matter what type of relationship they have, and that should be respected and taken as a normal thing.

Note: Longer explanation on Instagram.
#LauraAndTheHurricanes (out 8/27/25) was inspired by a new plotting technique along with wanting to write about a "reverse werewolf." Knew the impending storm would be major. Wrote it by hand in 4 weeks, the 1st w/o electricity.

Two projects for this month.
#LauraAndTheHurricanes (out 8/27) and a Christmas portal romantasy short story.
I'll concentrate on Laura first, but after I hand it off to the editor, I'm going to fast draft the short with the intention of an October release. Crossing my everything.

#LauraAndTheHurricanes is NOT a "born sexy yesterday" story, so it's not the 5th Element.
Bonnie could be compared to a mute or autistic character in a story that doesn't have werewolves.
I'll put more details on Insta. I need help w/ this. PLEASE!

The most important bad choice from #LauraAndTheHurricanes (8/27) is that Laura let herself have a relationship w/ Charley, an abusive biker. She had lost family and was looking for a new one. When she finally broke up with him, that triggered the events of the novella.

Jason, bi werewolf from #AFeralSpark, plays violin. It's more a passion, but he's also started woodworking.
Remo, asexual baker from #LetsBakeADeal, sings karaoke, usually with his bi sister Stephanie.
Laura, bi handyma'am from #LauraAndTheHurricanes, does mani-pedis.

Had to substitute a word...
Charley looked at Laura in the bright light, and the corner of his mouth twisted. “You should be punished for leaving the Eye, but your stench is a punishment on the rest of us. You need a bath.”

My villain in #LauraAndTheHurricanes (Charley) is proud of destruction and being the baddest mofo of anyone around him. He'll do whatever it takes to keep everyone doing what he says. Charley is proud of their compliance, and hateful when Laura has finally had enough.

*Submit that draft to a CP2
*Add feedback from CP1 and my own vibes read

I have 3 possible WIPs. One of them I'm publishing in August, come hell or high water (as the cliche goes). That is #LauraAndTheHurricanes, a bikers vs werewolves story with a sapphic romance side plot.
The other project are 2 different ideas for a weird west Submission call.

In #LauraAndTheHurricanes, the only real nod to another book is to my own! I have a reference to a sex shop franchise, but it's The Love Shack, which is in my Belli & the Beat series ( #LetsBakeADeal & #ThatFondantFeeling )
Otherwise, lots of music and move refs

I have spent at least 8 hours this week in revisions for #LauraAndTheHurricanes. I'm in the middle of chapter 6 of 9. I should be able to do another pass before handing it off or the editor. So... a good week!

From #LauraAndTheHurricanes featuring bi handyma'am Laura:
On wobbly feet, Laura reached over and snatched her grandmother’s necklace off Lili. Laura was #proud of herself for not kicking Lili in the face for good measure. It was nothing she didn’t deserve.
