Ordinarily you'd expect me to blog about books, a topic near and dear to my heart! And I've been reading some good ones lately. Ever read Jack Ketchum? Sadly, I hadn't until my son, Ryan introduced me to him, and while browsing in my local bookstore recently, I ran across a reprint of an early book of his called The Lost. Ketchum is a horror writer but this book is a thriller - in the strictest sense of the word. The prologue is gripping, and it never lets up. It's not a book for the faint of heart, but I couldn't put it down.
30 Days 30 Knights: Tales from the Regency Underworld
July 1, 2008
By Diane Gaston
When I wrote my first Harlequin Historical, The Mysterious Miss M, I was merely trying to write a story an editor would buy and readers would love. I didn’t realize I was creating a niche for myself. On the back cover of The Mysterious Miss were the words: The Regency Underworld—sex, scandal, and redeeming love. My niche was born.

What makes a good love scene? Better yet, what makes a great love scene? That might be an odd question from a writer who's moved from mainstream westerns to inspirational, but I think about it a lot. I especially considered love scenes when I was working on "The Christmas Dove," my contribution to The Magic of Christmas (Harlequin Historicals, October 2008). Time to gush . . . I can't help it! I am thrilled to be in this anthology with Carolyn Davidson and Cheryl St. John. It's a dream come true for me.

30 Days 30 Knights: Carol Townend Meets One Persistant Warrior
June 19, 2008
His Captive Lady was not a book I planned to write. I was about to start writing another novel (my current work in progress) when out of the blue the hero of His Captive Lady barged into my mind. Wulf told me in no uncertain terms that his story had to be told next! Wulf is a warrior and at times he is most persistent, this was one of those times. Read more

Writing romance is such a glamorous business. I thought I’d give my fans a little vignette of how alluring my life can be.

June 16, 2008
I got the idea for this posting from Deb Marlowe’s about breaking the rules in Regency romances. In reading that and thinking about my own books, I realized that most of my books have broken rules that lots of readers and writers think apply to Harlequin Historicals. What do you think?? Have you heard these before?
