Celt, Forbidden, Roman Empire, Romantic Times

I'm so excited - Romantic Times gave Forbidden a 4 star review! Much squealing ensued between my CPs and me and plenty of wine will be consumed at the Oz conference in a couple of weeks in celebration!!!

Here's a snippet of the review: "Set in the time of the Roman Empire, Phillips’ wonderful story of the romance between a Roman soldier and a Celt is more than entertaining"

My current book is racing towards the end now, and I was so totally in the zone this morning it was a real wrench to break off for lunch. And then of course I never managed to get back into it, what with Real Life intruding and all that!!!

Carina Press, Cathryn Brunet, Shelley Munro, The Spruned Viscountess, Three Over Par

Big shout out to Cathryn Brunet, whose steamy novella, Three Over Par, hits the shelves today with Carina Press! Congratulations, Cathryn. And when I say steamy, I mean it - read the first chapter here (and according to Cathryn, she was only just warming up in Chapter One!)

Here's the blurb:

Wild, hot, addictive sex…

After seeing one too many patients die regretting the things they haven't done, nurse Lucy Seymour realizes she's been making the same mistake. So when Robbie, the sexy golf instructor, makes his move, she responds with uninhibited passion, telling him there's nothing she won't try. Long sessions of foreplay lead to thrills and fantasy fulfillment…until Lucy sees Daniel, the greenkeeper, watching them. Watching her. And then Daniel does more than just watch…he joins them.

Can it lead to love?

Lucy might be exploring all of her secret fantasies, but her reality is that she's a one-man woman…and for her, that man is Daniel. But what does Daniel really want? Lucy or the fantasy?

I have several writer friends who have been contracted by Carina Press, and another book I can't wait to get my hands on is by my friend Shelley Munro. Her historical, Gothic mystery, The Spurned Viscountess, is due for release from Carina Press on 20th September. I love Gothics!

Foot Tattoo Designs For Girls - Stylish Tattoos For Sexy Feet

Foot tattoo designs are becoming increasingly popular among girls nowadays. The reason for its popularity is the fact that its in an area of the body where it can easily be concealed when needed. And then there's the satisfaction that it definitely look very sexy and interesting when flaunted. Nothing looks hot and flirty than stylish tattoo peeking out of one's stiletto. Girls definitely love the attention it draws to themselves.

As pretty and appealing as it is, there are several disadvantages that come with it. Designs for foot tattoos tend to be smaller in size so they take less time to ink. This pose a very potential problem to watch out for and that is ink migration. Especially since there are lot of movements in the feet area so they are more susceptible to fading and may require touch-ups in the future. The foot is also a painful part of the body to get tattooed as there are lots of nerve endings in that area plus the fact that there are less tissues to cushion the skin during tattooing process.

Small Tattoo Designs For Girls - Finding The Perfect Tattoo
If you are interested in small tattoo designs for girls, you'll find that there are a few things that you need to think about when it comes to getting the perfect design. A tattoo can be a very personal statement about yourself, and to find the perfect design, think about your own style.

Are you someone who does well with fiery colors like red and gold, or do you prefer more dreamy tones like blues and purples? Take a moment to think about what you want, and you'll be better equipped to find out about small tattoo designs for girls.

Small tattoo designs for girls can actually run the gamut when it comes to style or subject matter. For instance, one type of tattoo that is fairly popular for girls and women is the butterfly designs.

Butterflies are small and delicate... and according to certain theories, can flap their wings and cause hurricanes! Think about what message you are sending when you are looking at a butterfly design. Do you want something small and sweet, or are you interested in something with a vibrant amount of color?

You'll also find that small tattoo designs for girls can also be quite tribal and plain in nature, and if that suits you better, you should go for it. For instance, you would think that a girl who has a small snake tattooed on her ankle as being different from one who chose to put a butterfly there, even if they were the same size. If you have a bold and direct personality, think about what you can accomplish just by using things like bold black artwork.

Finding small tattoo designs for girls or at least, finding the small design that is perfect for you might take some time. Remember that the smaller a design is, the more simple it should be.

Cool Cross Tattoo Designs - Choosing Tattoo Designs For Girls

Cool Cross Tattoo Designs - Choosing Tattoo Designs For Girls
Cool cross tattoo designs are also a big favorite among girls and women who are interested to get ink done. But upon making your decision on which tattoo design to go for, there are still a couple of decisions that you got to make. First, which part of the body you would have the tattoo done and how big would the tattoo be?

With regards to placement, there are some considerations that you need to make when choosing where you would want the tattoo done. First, what is the shape of the tattoo design? Is the design triangular? Oval? Circular? Keep in mind that a horizontal tattoo design would make any part of your body that it is tattooed on appear wider. A vertical tattoo design on the other hand will make the part of the body it is tattooed on appear longer. Do you like the tattoo to be seen in public? Or would you rather keep it hidden? Would you still want to be able to wear a sexy backless dress at an office function perhaps and still be able to conceal your tattoo?

When you are inside a tattoo shop, the tattoo artist will be able to give you tips on where you can have tattoos made as well as help you choose among different flash; from cool cross tattoo designs to cute as well as discreet and dainty butterfly body art. Regardless of the design and the location of the tattoo on your body, the tattoo artist would be happy to stencil a specific design that you have already chosen.

A tattoo, ideally, must be recognizable by someone who is standing a few feet away from it. Usually tattoo artists would prefer doing a bigger tattoo rather than a small one. Bigger tattoos would give the tattoo artist more room for shading, and is actually far easier to outline and add in details. And people who get tattoos find that it is more fulfilling to get one very recognizable and striking tattoo rather than three small scattered ones.

The Best Tattoos For Girls

The Best Tattoos For Girls
Some of the best tattoos for girls are the ones that are all about trends. From Japanese prints to Betty Boop and barbed-wire armbands, the motives for girl's tattoos are as varied as the girls themselves. The most popular tattoos for girls are the ones that say something about the respective female and that will have the most thought and the feeling behind each and every one.

Many people ask their tattoo designer or friends that know tattoo designers what some of the best designer tattoos for girls these days are. The answer might be surprising to both friend and the overall grouping of the gender of female.

The art of tattoos has really taken off in the past few years. From a male-dominated activity in which sailors, servicemen and motorcycle gangs had their mother's name on their shoulders, to the college freshmen girls that have a butterfly on their ankle, tattoos have come along way.

Lower Back Tattoos - Favoured Tattoo Designs For Girls

Lower Back Tattoos - Favoured Tattoo Designs For Girls
Over recent decades, the most creative tattoo designs for women seem to revolve around the lower back tattoo, despite receiving some nasty labels like "Tramp Stamp", "Bullseye Tattoo" and "Alley Tag"... In this article I'll detail some of the reasons why it remains one of the favoured body parts to tattoo, for women of all ages -- and for the men who also enjoy the view!

In order to design a tattoo that looks as good on your skin as it does on paper, it is necessary to think about WHERE the image will be placed. Your own muscle tone and structure will affect the look of the finished art, especially on arms or legs, so it is wise to seek expert advice from your tattooist regarding final drawings and perhaps modifications, before setting your heart on a design that may not work well in the area you had planned to get inked.

As I was researching my own tat ideas, I kept returning to the lower back tattoo designs for women that I'd seen. Most girls and guys would agree that even though there has been a "tramp" stereotyping of tattooed women in general, there is still something sexy and alluring about a nice female lower back tat! I also thought about how well-balanced any tattoo artwork looks when placed on a central part of the body/torso, front or back. Unlike the belly however, there are fewer bodily changes noticed on the back. This is great news for the ladies, as our bodies can go through so many physical upheavals during the course of our lives, with impending stretch marks and potential middle-age-spread less likely to damage the appearance of a design located on our back!

Another popular reason for getting tattoos on the lower back is that there may actually be less pain involved in the tattoo procedure. I had been concerned about how painful it might be, since it was my first tattoo and I have extremely sensitive skin and nerves, but I have to say it was a very mild experience! Rather than getting tattooed on a really boney or sensitive part of the body, (like the ribs, foot, ankle, underneath the upper arm, collarbones, etc) I found there is generally enough of a fleshy cover over the lower spine to diminish the pain down to a deep, yet dull, scratching sensation.

Wrist Tattoos For Girls - Great Styles and What to Look For in a Design

Wrist Tattoos For Girls - Great Styles and What to Look For in a Design
You should always come up with your own decisions when choosing wrist tattoos for girls. While people can give input, you should never get something just because it's a fad or trendy. I can't tell you how many people I've met that regret doing it, because fads come and go. With that said, here are wonderful style choices for wrists tattoos for girls and what to look for in the designs you see.

The most common designs would be stars, tribals, flowers, Chinese and Kanji. These are all timeless designs and you can't go wrong with any of them. You need to be aware, though, because artwork websites know how popular these designs are, so they will usually pack their pages with tons of generic stuff, while only includes a few good, original wrist tattoos for girls. You know something is generic if you see the same type of image on multiple websites, because a lot of places will just take artwork from each other.

The other thing you need to watch out for is the shading and the color of the design you end up liking. You need to know that most artwork will look completely different on your skin than it does on paper, especially if there is a lot of shading or color. Before getting any wrist tattoos for girls inked with these traits, speak to a few artists about how different they will look. You can then make any alterations you need, to ensure that you're getting a wonderful piece. This also ensures that you'll have a fully original tattoo, because you're having it redrawn, so nobody will ever have that tattoo.

RWA Sydney Conference

I've just hit 73k on my current book which means I have about 20k to finish. However, there's still a long way to go before my hero and heroine get their happy-ever-after and I'm not convinced they'll make it within that word limit! I also want to finish before the RWAus conference in four weeks time (which means I need to finish in three weeks time) so I don't need to worry about it while I'm in Sydney.

And speaking of Sydney, I am sooo excited about the conference. I've not been to an Australian one before so it's going to be all new for me, plus a fabulous chance to meet up with on-line friends in the real world. I'm taking my camera and there will be photos!!!

20k to the finish line

I ran out of cat food though, but he seems to liike this better anyway! His name is Purrman Munson. I figure once I get sick of him, I'll cook him.
