Those of you who have been paying attention know that I’m working on a sequel for Wishbone.
Last night the sequel told me it wasn’t working because it had to be two books.
Which is exactly what the first book did.

As mentioned previously, my writing schedule is too tight this week to post another King-Sized Bed episode.
Instead, I’m posting the first sex scene in my new novel, which is the sequel to Wishbone. As usual, this post is NSFW. Like Wishbone, this excerpt is male/male.
I’m working on the sequel to Wishbone. It’s been slow going. I have only so much time per day awake and pain-free to write, and I seem to be spending all of it having revelations about things that will happen later.
Oh, and sex scenes. Well, I guess that counts.
Still. Less revelating and more writing.

To describe the relationships in Lauren P. Burka’s Wishbone as intense is certainly an understatement. Wishbone, our charming titular character, is uprooted from his life of prostitution by a shih-aan. The shih-aan, an alien race who bloodily warred with and defeated humans a decade prior, are looked upon as “demons” by Wishbone’s fellow men, yet he finds himself enthralled and exhilarated by his newest client—and soon-to-be master.
The relationship between Wishbone and “Sir” delights in the intimacies wrought by the struggles of dominance and submission, with a decidedly delicious shade of sadomasochism. The power play here is more than just a cheeky nudge and wink; the heavy erotic edge to all the interactions between the two men reveals shifts in trust and intimacy, each scene unfolding a new facet to and between the characters.

I just got one of the best reviews evar on the LiveJournal of Elisa Rolle.
Torquere’s in-house review of the book is right here. It pleased me that the author enjoyed it, though that isn’t surprising. They don’t find an in-hourse reviewer who hates the book. What did surprise me is how well the reviewer got it. As an Aspie, knowing that I’ve communicated successfully with people is a powerful positive experience. Almost as positive as hearing from people who told me they had to go home early from work after reading my fiction.
Edit: Ok, now all the url’s are fixed.
I just received a piece of mail from Torquere Books. They’re buying Wishbone.
My author chat is ongoing today at Torquere Press’s LJ. I posted the first chapter of Wishbone (which you can also find at an earlier post here). One of the comments says “Holy cheetos, that was eye-crossing hott!:D”
I suppose I have to get off my butt, get the final edits into Wishbone, and send that baby off to the publisher.
