Righter or Writer -- you choose

This book came about because of my casino group. There are a few writer friends who I get together with and we go to a casino and brainstorm ideas for books.

One time we came up with ideas for "books we can't imagine writing" and I came up with "a male writer who writes under a female pen name who falls in love with a woman at a writers' conference, but he can't reveal who he is because he's there in disguise as his alter ego, the female writer".

Well, I took that idea and I twisted it a bit. Yes, the main character is male and it's in his point of view. And yes, he's a famous author writing as a woman. And he does go to a conference in drag, hiding his identity and he kind of likes a woman whom he met in an online forum.

But there's also a mystery thrown in there, one from the old Hollywood days ("old" in this case being the 1980s). I had so much fun researching for this book and coming up with ideas for how my main character can pass as a woman at a writing conference.

So here's Righter, about a writer out to right a wrong.

Where is she and what is she doing?

I am still here, really. And no excuses: I'm writing like crazy, working at the Paycheck Job, and traveling, too. But now it's mid-July and guess what? I don't have any travel planned until September! I am avoiding thinking about a *possible* business trip I may have to take.

Nope, not thinking about that. ::covering ears and singing:: So hang in there. Soon I'll have a chance to focus on my blog again and on promotion and all the other oddities that make up publishing. Soon I'll finish my current WIP and there will be news galore.

Gilt will be coming soon (remember Gilt: my ghost firefighter?) And at the end of the year is Righter, a revenge-gone-wrong.

That will bring my total to 30 books in 6 years.

And you know what? After that, I may just take a vacation.
