Little Things...no, not those 'things'

I finished another chapter in the work in process last weekend and am well on my way into the next chapter. Go Me! Since the witness thing seems to be working, you all get to serve as witnesses again. I’ll get the next chapter done by the end of the weekend. There. Commitment made. *g*

Speaking of the work in process (Bound Forever), it’s my first book that will feature a fully established relationship. Bound to Him was a sequel, but the relationship wasn’t cemented yet. That was the point of the book - getting the guys over the initial bumps in their relationship (….okay, so by bumps I mean getting Vincent to stop being an arse). Anyway, Bound Forever picks up a good year after Bound to Him. Their relationship is reaching that established point, and with it comes that feeling of solid, lasting love. Most of my stuff deals with getting the guys into a relationship whereas Vincent and Oliver are already there. It’s a different feel than I’m used to infusing into a story. Of course, there’ll be angst and hot sex (how can there not be?), but even then it has a different feel to it than their first or even second book. Anyway I’m quite digging on the book. Hopefully you will like it, too.

And this leads me to inspiration for books. Insomnia seems to be Shawn’s latest muse, mine has been music. It’s the sentiment behind the lyrics that seems to get the muse grooving. The last 2 new book ideas have been sparked by songs. And for Bound Forever, it’s been this song by Pomplamoose. Because love is in the Little Things. :)

…oh, and Oliver’s not sorting Vincent’s lights and darks, nor do either of them cook. But you get the idea. ;)

And since I'm in a chatty mood tonight, I'll leave you with a question. When it comes to romances, what's your favorite 'stage' of a relationship - very beginning (lust that has the potential to turn to love), early (new love) or established (solid love)? Or are you of the greedy sort and you want it all? *g*
