Ceremony of Seduction released in Spanish!!!!

I came home the other night to find a box on my doorstep from Kensington.  I figured they’d sent me a few more author copies of Vision of Seduction, so I didn’t open it right away. Once I finally got around to opening it, I was happily shocked at what I found.

Ceremonia de Seduccion, aka, Ceremony of Seduction in Spanish, as sold in Spain.  Woo Hoo!  Before this I didn’t even know any of the foreign rights had been sold.  I did Google it to try to find the cover image to post up here, but the image showing on the Spanish bookstores isn’t the same one I received, so there might be a few different versions floating around out there.

The cover it actually has on it is a fuzzed out picture of a couple embracing–so much more tame than either of my Seduction Series covers in the US…lol!

Now the only Spanish I know is what I learned on Sesame Street, so a lot of the words in this book are totally beyond my comprehension…lol.  However, in the dedication, I had said, “To my Critique Group, The Butterscotch Martini Girls…” and the Translation of that is fun :-) “Mis Mejores criticas, las Chicas Butterscotch Martini”

Anyway, I’m still doing a big happy dance off this one!  Cassie Ryan has gone International!!  Here’s hoping for more translation books to pour in!!  I’d love to be able to add “Whose books are available in 44 languages world wide!” or something fun like that to my bio.  Tee Hee!

Just had to share,

Cassie/Tina

by Lee Avalone

Hank Blue is living the life, a Hollywood success story with millions of adoring fans. So why isn’t he happy? What would his fans say if they knew Hank sleeps with Hollywood starlets only to hide the fact he’s gay? Coming out of the closet would destroy everything he’s worked for in the blink of an eye. All the sacrifices he’s made would be for nothing.

As a vampire, Drake has seen it all more than once. Why does a mortal movie star tempt him where others have failed? Is he really so shallow? Drake wants Hank Blue. And Hank wants Drake’s alias, mild-mannered bit actor Wayne Reed. Little does Hank know he has a vampire by the tail…

Sweet Sunday

Sunday Chores

I didn’t really have anything to blog about today. As you can see I’m busy with um…housework. Enjoy your Sunday.

How do you like ‘em?

In the past a fellow BMG polled the audience to find out who was sexier, vampires or werewolves. And the wolves won, hands down.

Another BMG polled her readers to find out what kind of hero they craved on myspace and received some interesting answers. Check it out: www.myspace.com/BritBlaise

I have a thing for eye color. Can’t help it, I’ve always been a sucker for a beautiful pair of blue eyes. Probably why my dh has an incredible set and I can stare at them any time I want! :-)

What I want to know is what eye color makes you melt? I can’t wait to hear your answers.

Ciao,

Kayla

Big dreams. Big goals…Big wins.

Big dreams. Big goals…Big wins.

 

I signed up for the Heather Graham’s Writers for New Orleans conference (The Original Heather Graham)August 29-31 and am very excited about going. Some of the BMG’s went last year and raved about what a great time they had and I was a bit irritated I wasn’t able to go. This year I saw the ad and something inside told me I need to be at this conference. I pushed the thought away and went about my business.

A couple of days later I saw the ad again, and then again in yet another place. Things happen in threes.

Every time I saw the advertisement the little voice in my head kept repeating I needed to be there and grew more and more insistent. Yes, I hear voices in my head but they usually belong to characters who want their story written, not directing me where to go!

So I listened to the voice, signed up and bought a plane ticket. Now what?

I wasn’t sure what to expect and will be stepping waaaaaaayy out of my comfort zone by going alone. Alas, none of the BMG’s can make it this year but, for some unexplained reason I’m okay with this.

That insistent voice in my head has calmed down. I’ve discovered I have an editor appointment set up. Must admit I’m a little nervous and excited about this. I get as antsy as a cat in a room full of rocking chairs around editors. Which in a very round a bout way brings me to the title of this blog.

 

Big dreams – every author has them. It is what keeps us up at 3am when the story is flowing and you can’t stop. The fact we will have bags under our eyes and are dead exhausted the next day is irrelevant…at the time. J

 

Big goals – my goals have grown with my writing. As an aspiring author my first goal was to get published. Once I met that goal, my next goal was to publish another, and another. It still is. The idea of not writing doesn’t compute in my circuitry. Now the goal is New York.

 

Big wins – This covers a very broad spectrum. The wins have come in the forms of publishing contracts, new friends, business opportunities, travel, fantastic conventions and conferences personal growth and the satisfaction of knowing I can succeed. This may sound arrogant but I know I can and will be successful at whatever I put my mind to.

 

There, I’m stepping down from my soap box and leaving you with this final question.

 

What are you made of?

 

Ciao,

Kayla J
