Why I love Silhouette Nocturne
Since I’m a lazy ass and am on crazy deadline…I’m double dipping my blog posting duties.
I’m also over at the Pink Heart Society Blog, talking about the same thing.
When I first heard that Silhouette was starting a paranormal romance line I squealed. Yup, I actually squealed. I’m not in the habit of squealing, but I was very excited about the prospects for writing for this line. I immediately tracked down someone I knew that had sold and asked them tons of questions (thanks Michele Hauf!) then I set out to submit something spectacular to them. All that hard work paid off six weeks later with a contract. Woot!
I love this line!! And here is why…
My top ten reasons I love to write for Nocturne:
1. My editor Tara Gavin, she rocks, enough said!
2. To be part of something new and exciting.
3. I get to fantasize and write about sexy dark heroes like Christian Bale as Caine Valorian in Blood Secrets, and Olivier Martinez as Jace Jericho in Dark Lies. And I have this lovely pic of Alex O’Loughlin from Moonlight for inspiration for my next hero.
4. I get to create different worlds where vampires, werewolves and witches rule. Making stuff up is my favorite thing to do!
5. My heroines get to be just as dark and tough as my heroes.
6. I can write lots of action scenes, with car chases and blow stuff up.
7. The awesome covers they are doing for the line.
8. I get to be in the same line as amazing authors like Linda Howard, Caridad Pineiro, Michele Hauf, PC Cast and Lori Avocato (they have a series coming out soon) and up and coming authors like Lisa Renee Jones, Patrice Michelle, and Pamela Palmer.
9. The freedom to create the stories I want to tell and the opportunity to grow and sharpen my storytelling skills.
10. Hullo? It’s Harlequin. Who wouldn’t want to write for them? Tons of awesome authors got their start here and are still writing for the company.
Do you have a favorite line???
