A little bit hectic

It's come to my attention that I haven't blogged in, like, ages. There's a reason for this: I've been super-busy with all kinds of non-writing-related things (I know. I'd forgotten they existed) like taxes and going on holiday. And in less than a week's time--gulp!--I'll be off again, this time to New York City for the RWA National Conference. Okay, for a little holiday too. We'll call it research.

But before I disappear again, let me share with you a revelation and a connected chance to win lots of chocolate.

The Revelation:

I went to see X-Men: First Class the other day. Okay, I saw it twice. a) it was brilliant and b) I've renewed my crush on Michael Fassbender, who I fancied even when he was being all hairy and intense in The Devil's Whore. In X-Men he's very smooth and elegant and deadly and muscular and, basically, delicious. I'm absolutely in love with the way he smiles.

I need sunglasses to look at that smile

If only he were blond, I thought, he'd make a perfect Luke from the Sophie Green books.  Then I saw this:

With James McAvoy, who is also very pleasant to look at

Ysee? Y'see? He's Luke, right? And if you're not sure who Luke is, then you can get him for FREE on Kindle and Nook until the end of the month!

And, speaking of bringing heroes to life...

The Chance to Win Chocolate:

My fellow choc-liteer, Sue Moorcroft, needs your help. She's looking for the Face of Martyn Mayfair, the hero of her latest book, Love & Freedom. Do you know someone who matches this description?

MARTYN IS BOTH SMOOTH AND HOT WITH A FLAVOUR THAT STAYS WITH YOU – LIKE A MONTEZUMA’S CULTURE SHOCK BAR!

 

Then send in his photo to Sue! There's money in it for you--and him, if you're generously inclined--plus books, plus chocolate!
