Buying Mackenzie's Baby is in PRINT

My alter-ego has some good news she'd like to share. *grin*

It's official... well as official as it gets, LOL

Amazon hasn't lifted it from 'pre-order' status, but the book is ready to ship from the printers.

Meanwhile, I had a tactful moan *grin* at Amazon.co.uk and it's now up there too. YAY. Not all of the information is up yet though.

So the best place to get Buying Mackenzie's Baby (especially for price and postage, hehe) is here: MBaM.


The morning after a high society party finds Kate Hartley in her ex-husband’s bed. Just a stupid mistake; something to put behind her… Until she discovers that she is pregnant.

Mack had never wanted children; had only married her in a rush of lust. Kate knows this. Nothing would drive her to ask anything of him. Nothing. But she’s homeless and flat broke.

And it isn’t only her welfare now.

However, Mack has his own agenda. Kate had fooled him once; married him for his money. Whored herself… It was why he had divorced her. But now his grandfather has threatened his mother’s home if Mack doesn’t marry and produce an heir.

He had vowed never to marry again. But Kate Hartley is his only choice.

And pay back can be sweet…

Angel


Okay, I can be as shallow as the next shallow person... and anyway it's *cough* inspiration

Actually, he's a character for my Nocturne sub. My hero for that may be wearing more clothes, though... ;-)

And thanks to Ann Cory for introducing me to him, LOL

NaNo - Day 18 - 30

Yes, I became the ulimate slacker during the last twelve days of NaNoWriMo.

I blame it on Christmas present buying, wrapping them and Winter Fatigue. That's the new craze, since SADs is old hat now... ;-)

Anyway, my total got to: 35529

I know it's not the magical 50k number, and I also slipped from the 40k I was aiming for. But it probably works out that I wrote 35.5k in about a fortnight. With multiple resting days in between. And it pushes Alchemy over the 50k mark. That means I only have about another 20k to write. Which is a lot better then when November started and I had about 15k and the story was already a year old.

Rewrites are going to be a bugger, though, LOL

I just have ** inserts with a list of things that need to happen and then I've moved on to the more interesting, less research-heavy scene.

Now I have to put Alchemy away for a while and get up to speed with Past Lies. That needs a major plot change and 10k added. By the end of December. It should be doable... *gulp*

Oh and here's what my writing course tutor thought of Alchemy's prologue.

I like this; it really rattles along, great tension - lots of obstacles overcome and a twist at the end. Believeable characters, empathy with Alesh.

At some point, you will need to answer why Zenos has turned. I agree with you about the ending - I bit Mills and Boon, I thought.

...if he only knew.... ;-)
