One Ghost-Investigating Agency, Eight Different Stories by Erin Hayes

Posted on by

TGTBTGFInalCoverSmallThe Good, The Bad, and The Ghostly is a collection of eight ghostly romances from the Wild West that are all tied together by one fictional ghost-investigating agency in St. Louis—The Tremayne Specters Investigations Agency.

Writing eight different stories that all featured the same place that existed in our imaginations presented some interesting challenges. Questions such as, “Where is this agency located?” or “What does it look like?” or even, “What do the people who work there look like?” popped up at various points, and we all had to make sure that they aligned with one another, otherwise, we wouldn’t have a believable world. And, on top of that, we set the anthology in the late 1800s, adding another layer of research and planning to our writing. It was challenging to say the least.

Yet, I think we somehow managed to pull it off. And I love the final result.

Discussions took place over Yahoo! Groups, and collaboration was key. We all first decided on a name for the agency—words such as paranormal didn’t exist during this time period, so we had to improvise with the words that were available. Thus, the Tremayne PSI Agency was born.

As mentioned earlier, there were questions about where this agency was based, and many other specifics, even down to the marble in the lobby of the agency’s office. Luckily, we had the foresight to define all of these and they were compiled into a document that we could refer to at any point during our story. It was actually so complete, that any time I had to refer to the document for my own contribution to the collection, I never went away with more questions. Everything was complete, meaning that we had done a great job world building.

World building is my favorite part of writing, so having such a rich history to draw from was inspiring, as I’m sure it was for the other authors. As we all went our own ways to write our stories, certain other aspects of publishing went into play such as cover art, promotion, organization, editing, formatting and so many others. We even had an internal beta read program where we swapped our finished stories with another author. As I generally write paranormal romance in a modern-day setting, I really relied on this part to make sure that my own story was believable in both the collection and in the 1880s.

Once the stories were completed, edited, and picked over with a fine-toothed comb, it was compiled and formatted into the collection that you can pick up from Amazon. Eight unique, wonderful stories that have their own distinct voices while maintaining that consistency across all of them. Each story is fun, and I hope you’ll enjoy reading them as much as we did building the world around it. Just be sure to read it with the lights on—some can get pretty spooky!

THE BLURB FOR HOW THE GHOST WAS WON:

There are ghost stories. And there are ghost legends.

From orphan to saloon girl to ghost whisperer, Hattie Hart has been and seen a lot of things in her time. Her new job as a detective with the Tremayne Psychic Specters Investigations Agency takes her out to the remote town of Carolina City, Nevada, on a vague assignment to investigate the disappearance of a US Marshal.

Except, when she arrives, she meets the devilishly handsome Grant Madsen, a US Marshal who is alive and well. Certainly not missing, but certainly the man of her dreams. So why did her boss send her out to this small boomtown when there’s nothing for her to investigate?

She soon discovers that in Carolina City, there are strange happenings from the afterlife that threaten to kill her or worse. She’ll have to race against time to save her life, the town, and the US Marshal she was sent to find—and maybe, if she’s lucky, her heart.

EXCERPT:

In my dream, there’s a man.
I can’t see his face or any other distinguishing features on him other than the fact that he is tall and dark, and I can sense that he is handsome. My dreams don’t allow for me to get close enough to see who he is.
But I know him. He has captivated my heart and welded my soul to his. Something inside me intrinsically calls out to him, aching that he’s not close to me, skin to skin, pulse against pulse.
We’re meant to be together, in this life and in others.
I know this, and he knows this.
In my dream, we’re standing about ten yards apart on a desert landscape, me in my corset and him in his dust jacket and hat that shades his face. I don’t recognize the place, but it feels alien, like nothing could ever survive in these harsh elements.
We’re both dead.
I see the glint of his smile as he looks at me. My heart breaks and I want to help him, but something keeps me rooted to my spot.
“Find me, Hattie,” he says, his voice in my head. “Save me.”
“How?” I ask. “From what?”
But he keeps repeating those two words, echoing on and on in my mind.
“Save me. Save me.”

An Interview with Trevann Rogers

Posted on by

HouseOfTheRisingSon72smGive us an elevator pitch for your book.

An incubus and two toddlers walk into a bar…wait. That’s no joke. That’s Cheyenne’s life, and you weren’t supposed to see them.

Cheyenne, a half-human incubus, is good at keeping secrets. He keeps his music career hidden from his tyrannical father. He keeps his true nature as an incubus secret from the humans whose lust sustains him. And he keeps his children unknown to the incubi, especially the royal family—his family. He doesn’t buy into the “they could save the race” bullshit. He’s just got to keep them safe. Besides he’s got bigger plans—he’s going to be a rockstar.

 Describe the genre of this particular title, and is the only genre you write in?

HOUSE OF THE RISING SON is an LGBT Urban Fantasy Romance.  LGBT indicates that the main characters are gay, lesbian or transgender and that their sexuality is an integral part of their story. The stories are Urban Fantasy in that the story is set in a modern world peopled with supernatural creatures.  Urban Fantasies also typically have aggressive conflict and action.

Do you prefer to read in the same genres you write in or do you avoid reading that genre? Why? I almost exclusively read Urban Fantasy with male protagonists. I love the pace of these novels, and I enjoy the male point of view and humor. Not that I don’t also enjoy great books with female protagonists. But the books I like best, I like because I fall in love with the hero.

Tell us about your hero.  Give us one of his strengths and one of his weaknesses.

Cheyenne is an incubus who aspires to be a rock star. Besides playing the guitar like a fiend, one of his strengths is his capacity to love and remain loyal despite the odds.  On the other hand, he doesn’t let many people get close to him. He’s guarded and secretive even when it’s not in his best interest.

Where do you get the ideas for your stories?

Ah, I find inspiration for stories from many sources. Most often, I’ll see someone with a look or a personality that sparks my imagination. Sometimes song lyric moves me. Occasionally my writing partner and I will start a silly conversation that takes an interesting turn and become a scene or a story.

Do you have critique partners?

I am lucky to belong to a wonderful group of women writers. We all write in very different genres—Women’s Fiction, Suspense, Mystery, Biographical Fiction—and me, Urban Fantasy. It works because our strengths are also different and complimentary. We share them freely while supporting and encouraging each other.

 Do you have a view in your writing space?  What does your space look like?

My view is of my beautiful back yard. It is filled with trees and flowers with places to sit and enjoy the outdoors.  It then slopes down to a tiny valley I chose not to landscape. It’s become my own personal wildlife sanctuary.

 Did you have several manuscripts finished before you sold? If so, did you send them out yourself?

No, believe it or not, the only manuscript I had was the manuscript I sold. I sent it out to various publishing companies, and pitched it in person at a few conferences.  Surprisingly, I received a few offers and chose the one that was the best fit.

 Having achieved your goal to be a published author, what is the most rewarding thing?   

HOUSE OF THE RISING SON is the book of my heart with characters I’ve played with and loved a long time. The fact that there are other people who love them too and enjoy my story makes my heart sing.

What is your next project and when will it be released?

AFTER MIDNIGHT is prequel to HOUSE OF THE RISING SON. It will be released on September 22. It answers some of the questions about the mothers of Cheyenne’s children.

Thank you so much for having me today!

House of the Rising Son

Living After Midnight, Book 1

Author: Trevann Rogers

Genre: Urban Fantasy Romance

Cheyenne is a half-human incubus whose star is on the rise in the Unakite City rock scene. His father, the leader of the supernatural races, would prefer he keep a “low profile”, but screw that. Cheyenne has as much music in his veins as royal incubi blood.

Alexander’s future is all set—finish law school, join the family firm, and marry someone who’d be good for business. Not that he has a say in any of it. He’s barely met the woman his father expects him to marry.

As Cheyenne’s musical career takes off, his carefully constructed life begins to unravel, exacerbated by an ex-lover who can’t let go, a crotchety barkeeper with a dirty mind and a pure heart, a drag queen who moonlights as a nanny, and Alexander—who’s not sure if he’s falling for the incubus or the rocker.

Cheyenne denies who he is, while Alexander hides what he wants. Together, they learn that getting what they truly want means being who they truly are.

Warning: Contains hot were-tiger sex, a Thanksgiving celebration that makes the Inquisition look like a tea party, and an incubus who’ll rock your world.

~~

Excerpt:

While waiting for their drinks, Alexander studied the deep grooves carved into the table, trying to ignore the friction of Cheyenne’s thigh rubbing against his as the musician tapped a heel to the thump of the DJ’s music. Once the drinks arrived, Alexander downed half the bottle before he realized Cheyenne’s large green eyes were staring at him.

“So where’s your girl, Prudhomme? I mean, Prune Danish. No, wait…”

“Prudish. Shit, Prudence,” Alexander sputtered.

Cheyenne’s eyes sparkled. “No, you got it right the first time. Where is she?”

He shrugged. “Home, I guess.”

Cheyenne cocked his head. “Oh, really?” He put his hand on Alexander’s leg. “What’s up? You can tell me.”

“It’s not working out.” Alexander dragged his teeth over his lower lip. “It’s my fault.” He couldn’t keep his attraction to Cheyenne out of his voice. “I don’t know what’s happening to me.”

Cheyenne put his thumb to his lip and paused. “It’s like the drink.”

Alexander tilted his head, not sure he heard correctly. “The drink?”

“Yeah, that nasty ass bourbon. I bet your father drinks it. Your uncles. All your friends. Everybody, right?”

He didn’t answer, but waited for Cheyenne to continue.

“It was just expected that you’d drink it too. So you did.” His hand moved up Alexander’s thigh. “But now, maybe it’s okay to drink what you like. A different brand, a better vintage. Because you want it. Because it tastes better.” Cheyenne licked his lips. “Because it feels right.”

Alexander cleared his throat and brushed his lap, pushing Cheyenne’s hand away. “I can’t.”

“If you change your mind, let me know.”

“You don’t understand. It’s not that easy. My whole life will change.”

“It already has.”

How To Write The Next Book By C.D. Hersh

Posted on by

Tweet-series-bannerAt some point, in the beginning of every writing journey, we authors wonder if we can really write a book. We ask ourselves:  Can I do this? And if I can, will I be able to write a second book? Will my next book be as good as the first book?  Will an editor love book number two as much as the first one? And, heaven forbid, what will I do if no wants the next book I write— assuming I can even finish it?

When we started our publishing journey back in 2012, with the pitch of the first book in our paranormal/urban fantasy series The Turning Stone Chronicles to Soul Mate Publishing, we had some of those questions. Book One, The Promised One was taking a maiden journey into the editorial world of queries. And after the rejection stories we heard from other aspiring authors, we truly thought we’d have our first rejection slip. We had ideas about where the remaining books in the proposed series were going, but not much more than nutshells of ideas and a few paragraphs written in a black-and-white school composition book. Book number one didn’t even have a contract, and here we were bold enough to assume we could write and sell a six-book series.

Four years later, with the release of book number four in the series, The Mercenary and the Shifters, we are now more than halfway through our series.

It’s been an interesting journey. We had a few surprises along the way. We never expected our series to sell on the first toss over the publishing world transom. And we certainly didn’t expect the editor would want all six books without ever seeing them. We also didn’t expect the overwhelming learning curve of marketing that came crashing down on us. But somehow, we figured it all out—including the total replotting of book 4 when a minor character in book 3, The Son of the Moonless Night, suddenly decided she wanted center stage and took over the plotting process. We also learned, thanks to a lovely review we received, that we can write without the dreaded sophomoric slump in our later books.

If you’re just beginning your publishing journey and you’ve answered “no” and “I don’t know to the questions in the opening paragraph, you are starting your journey off stifling your creativity. If you can finish a single book that has all the elements an editor wants, then never fear. You can write another book as good as the first and maybe even better.

MERCENARY AND THE SHIFTERS_505x825 (2)Here are some tips to help you make your goal of book number 2, 3, and more.

  • Keep a positive attitude. A lot of people want to write a book. Many say they’re going to write a book SOME DAY. You have written a book. You’ve slapped those all-important two words on the last page—THE END. Additionally, if you got a contract from an editor, you have validation that your book was good. So don’t let doubt get in your way.
  • Don’t wait until your creativity well runs dry to begin the next book. Writing stirs up our muses, and there’s no better time to start thinking about the next book than while you are working on your current book.
  • When you have an idea for the next book, let the need to write it spur you on. Having a second story waiting in the wings compels us to finish the WIP.
  • When you get that nutshell of an idea for book number two, write it down! Don’t say, “I can remember that.” Chances are you won’t. Instead, drop it in a computer file or paper file, whichever works for you. Read it often. Think about it before you go to bed, but not if it makes you an insomniac. Let it bubble and stew in the back of your mind until a full-blown story is born.
  • Capture ANY wild story ideas that come your way. No tidbit you find remotely interesting should be ignored. You never know when inspiration for the next book will hit. The plot could be residing in a snippet of conversation you overhear at your favorite restaurant, a story you read in the newspaper, or even an interesting road sign. The Turning Stone Chronicle series originated from a road sign for a place named Turning Stone that we passed on a long road trip. We said, “What an interesting town name. Could we write a story with that title?” And the rest is history.
  • Learn from your mistakes. Continued practice of the craft makes you a more skilled writer. Keeping a weasel word list, noting the places where your editor or beta readers say you are weak, and continuous education in the craft will improve your writing skill and storytelling ability. The more we write, the more second nature the job becomes. So, when the next book comes along, you’ll have an easier time putting it down. And who doesn’t want that?

For all the readers out there, here’s an excerpt from book four of The Turning Stone Chronicles. We hope you’ll like it.

The Mercenary and the Shifter

Excerpt

“My home is perfectly safe. It’s my business I’m concerned about.”

Fiona crossed her arms over her chest, her body language closing off to further suggestions. Mike followed her motions. As he did, he spotted a red dot on her chest. The dot wiggled.

“Get down!” Mike shouted as he dove for Fiona.

They hit the floor as the pottery on the raised fireplace hearth exploded, sending shards across the room. Mike shoved Fiona behind the nearest chair then scrambled across the rug to the blown-out window. Removing his gun from his back-of-the-waist holster, he peered over the windowsill. Seeing no one in the driveway, he swiveled around to check on Fiona. The red laser point danced around the room, searching for a target.

Mike followed the trajectory of the beam. The shot came from across the street in something high. He remembered seeing a tree house in the yard across the road from the mansion.

“Who lives across from you?” he asked.

“No one right now. The house is for sale.”

“I didn’t see a ‘For Sale’ sign.”

“We’re in an exclusive neighborhood. The HOA forbids sale signs.” Another shot rang out.

Mike whirled around in time to see Fiona’s head sticking out from behind the chair. The image of her head reflected in the fireplace mirror. “He’s using the mirror to target us. Do these curtains close?”

“Yes. The cord’s on the other side of the window.”

“I’m going to crawl under the window and close them. He’ll probably see my reflection in the mirror and start shooting, so stay hidden. As soon as the curtains close, crawl to the window as fast as you can and follow the wall to the entryway. Then get the hell out of the front of the house. Got it?”

“Got it.” Fiona’s voice quavered up the scale.

“You okay?”

“Scared, but okay.”

As Mike crawled along the floor, a volley of shots rang out. The remainder of the pottery displayed on the hearth shattered. When he reached the other side of the window, he yanked the drapery cord. The curtains billowed closed.

“Now, Fiona!” he shouted.

As she belly crawled across the floor, Mike held his breath. Bullets sprayed the room, punching through the heavy draperies, the shots veering from floor to ceiling.

Don’t ricochet! he commanded.

Fiona reached the cover of the exterior wall, and he let his breath out in a whoosh.

“Hurry!”

When she came within arm’s reach, he grabbed her hand and yanked her the rest of the way across the room and into the entry.

“Do you have a panic room?”

She nodded, her eyes filled with fear. “In the basement, behind the trophy wall.”

“Get in it, and don’t come out until I tell you to.”

“Where are you going?”

“To get the SOB who’s trying to kill you.”

A visit with Wendi Christner

Posted on by

WaterBearer-med copy—What is your favorite part of writing?  The characters can make or break the best of stories, so I do love creating fully evolved people in my mind and putting them on the page. But for me it’s just as much fun to mold the sentences, manipulate the words, and figure out how all the pieces of the story weave together. That’s kind of weird, isn’t it? I do love the structural challenge, though. I guess it’s like making a quilt or putting together a jigsaw. There’s such a sense of accomplishment when you create something complex out of a bunch of simpler pieces.

 –What is your next project and when will it be released? Water Bearer is available now. It’s a bittersweet story of ever-lasting love and forgiveness set in a rural farming community much like the one I grew up in. Cassidy accidentally set a fire that killed her parents and has decided she needs to leave the ghosts behind. But her last summer with Jared, her best friend, changes everything.

–Where do you get the ideas for your stories? They come to me when my mind wanders. Sometimes I’m given a snippet of conversation first, and I start writing until I know who’s speaking. Then I follow their lead until they tell me their story. Sometimes I get what I call lightning strike moments where it all just kind of hits me out of nowhere and I run to my laptop to catch it before it’s gone. The most difficult books to write are the ones I start typing before the characters come to me on their own.

–Has your muse always known what genre you would write and be published in? My muse is a fickle little sprite, but I’ve come to understand at her heart she’s almost always speaking in my native Southern tongue. Over the years, the genre has become less important to me than capturing the characters and their truth. I read in a lot of different genres, and I write in a lot of different genres. But almost all of my books have a Southern setting.

–Did you always know you wanted to be a writer? Yes, I think I did. I didn’t always believe I could do it, though. My entire life, I’ve loved reading. I began to read when I was about a year old, and books were always my most prized possessions. When I began reading chapter books, I would often turn the last page with tears in my eyes and think “I wish I could do that.” Great books still bring those tears and that same wish.

–Describe the genre of this particular title, and is it the only genre you write in? Water Bearer is a coming of age love story. As I mentioned, I’ve become less focused on genre and more focused on the characters and their story. I write what tugs at me to be told. The characters in Water Bearer grabbed hold of my heart the moment I met them and still haven’t let go.

–Will you share some encouraging words for authors still struggling for that first contract? Keep improving your craft and believe in yourself. Writing success is like everything else worth achieving in life. You only fail when you stop trying.

–What’s next for you? Thank you for asking. Fetch Us Some Water is a gritty Southern novel that explores the depths of love and forgiveness possible between a mother and daughter. This book took me almost a decade to write. It’s rich and complex, and I’m excited to share it. Those familiar with my Writer’s Digest Short-Short Story Contest winner “Throwing Stones” will recognize the setting and some of the secondary characters. Release day is November 2, 2016, and it’s available for pre-order on Amazon now.

Thank you so much for having me here today. It’s been an honor.

Water Bearer Excerpt

Jared parked the tractor next to the barn and stepped down. He had a clear view of Cassidy as she hefted a rug over the clothesline behind Gima’s house. Her dark blond ponytail swung with the effort, and her long legs extended as she rose onto her toes. The shift of her body twisted his gut and sent an ache even lower. He couldn’t imagine a day when she wouldn’t be there, but that day was coming. And coming fast.

She whacked the rug with a broom, and a cloud of dust billowed out around her.

“When’s she leaving?” Clarence asked.

Jared glanced over his shoulder. He stood taller than his father. Two years ago they’d been the same height, but Clarence’s shoulders had started to bow. The lines in his face were carved too deep, and his hair had turned solid gray. He was too young to look as old as he did.

“End of August. Week after the Corn Dance.”

“Sooner the better.” Clarence slapped him on the shoulder and started toward the barn. “Just let her go.”

“I’m going to town,” Jared called after him.

“See if Lilith needs anything.”

Jared wiped the sweat from his brow and climbed in his truck. At the end of his driveway he turned right and pulled onto the narrow rutted path that led to Gima’s.

He heard Cassidy coughing before he made it to the back of the house. If she’d heard him drive up, she didn’t let it stop her from her chore. Dirt smudged her face, and the sweat that trickled from her temples had left trails in the grime.

A familiar heaviness settled on his heart at the same time his groin tightened. She was the only girl he’d ever seen who would look beautiful if she wrestled a pig on its own turf, and she didn’t have a clue how gorgeous she was or what she did to him.

“Hey, beautiful,” he said with a smirk.

Water Bearer Blurb

One last summer together forever changes the lives of best friends in a small Southern community. These unforgettable characters and their moving story linger long beyond the final page.
