Indigo has interviewed me (that sounds very musical and happy… and it IS – I LOVE being interviewed). http://indigosin.wordpress.com/2013/06/16/indigos-21-with-cynthia-sax-61713/ I share writing advice and my whacky processes and other strange things. ***************************************************************************** He Watches Me From Cynthia Sax She desires to be seen. He wants to watch. Anna Sampson has a naughty secret. Every night, she slips into her neighbor’s yard and swims naked in his pool. She fantasizes that the dynamic young billionaire watches her nightly nude aquatics, his brilliant green eyes gleaming with lust. She discovers this isn’t pure fantasy. Gabriel Blaine has been watching her via his security cameras, and now that he has returned to L.A., he doesn’t plan to stop. That’s all he wants—to watch.

I have a confession to make. I’ve been cheating. As the header picture of this blog shows, I am a lover of Regency Romance. What’s not to love? It’s a glittering world of fabulously wealthy dukes and duchesses, earls and countesses, gorgeous dresses, and magnificent homes. Just so you all know, in my next life, I am coming back as a duchess. But I didn’t start out reading these Regencies. Back when I first started reading romance, I read Shanna, which took place in the West indies. I left romance after that, and when I returend became introduced to the world of Bertrice Small. I read everything by her and I am sorry to say, I got bored after a while with the kidnapping to the harems and all that. Once again, I left romance and read mostly mysteries, woman’s fiction and what used to be called chick-lit. I have...

As a huge fan of Candis Terry’s Sugar Shack Series, it was a no brainer for me to sign up for the Tasty Book Tour promoting Candis’s upcoming new release, ANYTHING BUT SWEET. On Wednesday, the lovely lady will be joining me for an interview so be sure to come back then to meet her. ***eARC provided by publisher via Edelweiss in exchange for an honest and unscripted review. Blurb for ANYTHING BUT SWEET: A man who doesn’t like change . . . The Wilder family is something of a Sweet, TX institution: between their yearly BBQ blow-outs and their Hardware and Feed store, they’re an institution—an institution that ex-marine Reno Wilder has tried to preserve, in honor of his lost loved ones. But it seems like he’s the only one who’s got any respect left for traditions when a new TV makeover show rolls in to renovate Sweet to...

dd You may think I’m joking but as I type this post I feel surrounded by blinking lights. I love lightning bugs. They remind me of being a small child and running around catching them in a mason jar and sleeping with them beside the bed. I remember catching one at a time. But this year they seem to have multiplied. Everywhere you look they’re are hundreds blinking. It’s a nice, sultry night in Georgia. The rain has subsided and made way for clear skies. I’m enjoying sitting on my patio working on my current book as my hubby listens to guitar riffs on youtube via his phone. It always inspires me to write when I sit outside in the twilight and watch the sun sink into the horizon. I feel like the sinking sun sometimes. As I work on the finishing touches of my latest work I wonder how...
