Ronda Thompson - Yum, sounds good, Susan E. Hurry up!
Jennifer Ashley - I got inspired to write Perils when I was editing a book on women and travel. I read about some legendary pirate women, and they inspired the villainess of the book.

Ronda Thompson - Thanks Susan, you too, I know your plate is very full right now
Hunt4Me2 - Ummm Nina ....i hate to say this but your last book I had to take 2 COLD showers after reading it
Patti O'Shea - Trice, I'm not planning on doing Stacey and Alex's story right now. They're not here and I can only write the characters that are hanging around me.
Hunt4Me2 - ahh man
Lea - next week
Lea - night
Ronda Thompson - Nite Lea
BonnieVanak - night lea
TriceCyn - so Stacey and Alex's story is in your head but not right now???
Ronda Thompson - Mac, if you can stick around...I want to ask you something about the rejection
Celeste - Night all
Rose! - Mac? you will make it. I am sure.
Rose! - Nite Celeste!
TriceCyn - Night Cel
Mac - k...I'm here for a long while yet.
Ronda Thompson - Night Games? Oh yeah, baby
Hunt4Me2 - lol ya that one
Patti O'Shea - Well, Trice, my writing partners have pretty much been demanding Alex since I they read the last chapter of Ravyn, but I just don't have a story for them. If they come back, I will write them. But right now, I'm playing with my barbarian and I have an assassin waiting in the wings.
Ronda Thompson - That was a read, Nina.
Hunt4Me2 - Original sin was a 2 but Night Games Seduction by Chocolate and the Pleasure Master were a 5 out of 5
TriceCyn - oooooooo Can't wait!!!!
Ronda Thompson - Patti, you can't just have Alex bang us against a wall and then not give us more!
Mac - I have that book, just haven't found time to read it....Night Games, that is.
BonnieVanak - well, gotta run all.. have a happy thanksgiving and a good week!
Patti O'Shea - Thanks, Trice!
TriceCyn - Night Bonnie!!!
Mary f - Night Bonnie
Patti O'Shea - Good night, Bonnie. happy T Day!
BonnieVanak - night all!
Rose! - @ Ronda!
Mac - My boy just stood up from sitting...he looks so small standing there by himself...**sigh**
Ronda Thompson - Bonnie, did you tell us what you have coming up next?
TriceCyn - NP...I really love RF..may re read it as i wait on Ronda's book
Rose! - Nite Bonnie!! happy T-Day!
Mac - Not walking yet, though.
Patti O'Shea - Ronda, I'm a complete seat of the pants writer. I write who I'm eavesdropping on and since Alex isn't here, there's no story. Sorry.
Ronda Thompson - Oh Mac, and he's such a cutie...I'd like to squeeze him
Patti O'Shea - Trice, wow! Cool!
Mac - He's turned into a loud mouth lately, too...lol
Ronda Thompson - Well, Patti, I understand that, maybe he'll come whisper in your ear one of these days
Patti O'Shea - Ronda, I wouldn't rule it out. And I think I could actually sustain Alex's intensity for a whole story now. I couldn't while I was writing RF.
Ronda Thompson - Yes, he is pretty intense and no, you couldn't during RF because you already had an intense story going on
Hunt4Me2 - in my spread sheet where i list all my books I had to put "The Pleasure Master" under Erotica
Meesha - Hi all
Hunt4Me2 - gosh i hate screen freezes
Ronda Thompson - Martin the hamster has escaped his cage some time late last night...wonder where the critter is?
Mary f - Hello Meesha
Mac - HI, Meesha
Ronda Thompson - Hi Meesha
Meesha - Tell me this....
Patti O'Shea - Hi Meesha
Ronda Thompson - I have to get The Pleasure Master. I
Meesha - Can a handle bar (well trimmed and smooth cheeked) be sexy specifically on a cowboy type hero
Ronda Thompson - as I was saying...I've heard it is wonderful
SusanE has timed out.
Meesha - Pleasure Master...that just sounds hot
TriceCyn - Hi Meesha
Hunt4Me2 - Ronda do you wount be disappointed
Meesha - Hello!
Hunt4Me2 - i mena wont
Hunt4Me2 - boy i cant speel tonight
Ronda Thompson - It can Meesha, but if you are writing a hero with a mustache, the publisher may make you shave it off of him. If you will notice, none of the cover models on romances have hair on their faces, or very few
Meesha - 'Puter isn't updating again
Mary f - wonder why that is?
Ronda Thompson - Hunt, will get it on your recomendation
Meesha - AAhhh...very true...never thought of that...how about starting without one and then possibly growing one?
Ronda Thompson - Because I guess women for the most part like the smooth kind of baby face look on a man, or the models can't grow it and have it off enough times before they have to do a different cover
Mary f - Hello Carrie
Ronda Thompson - Yeah, or the other way around Meesha, that should work
Meesha - I never concidered the publisher MAKING my man shave! LOL Wish I could get my SO to do that. Aaaahhh the power of publishers
TriceCyn - Hi Carrie
Hunt4Me2 - I have 4 of her books my 1ft one of her was "Original Sin" and i almost didnt buy the next because I disliked that one
Patti O'Shea - I'm going to say good night now. I hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving!
Ronda Thompson - Hi Carrie
Meesha - You too Patti
TriceCyn - you too...Night PAtti!!!
Mac - Later, Patti
Ronda Thompson - Mac, did the publisher offer you suggestions? Did she say anything like she'd like to see it again if you do this or that?
Mac - Hi, Carrie
Mary f - Night Patti Happy turkey day
Ronda Thompson - Nite Patti
Meesha - darn, I like a nicely shaved handle bar mustache.
Mary f -
Mac - Nope..nothing like that.
Meesha - That is so me Mary1`
Ronda Thompson - I do too, Meesha. My husband has a mustache and has had ever since I've known him
BonnieVanak has timed out.
Meesha - I mean Mary
Mary f - Mine too, I've never seen him without one!
Mac - Said I had obviously researched the genre, but they feel it lacked the extra degree of emotional punch and excitement they look for...we would NOT recommend that you attempt to revise this story...**sigh**
Meesha - If my SO shaves his, he looks 12 and I get accused of robbing the cradle! And I think he's just darned sexy with it!
Carrie - hi everyone
Ronda Thompson - Well, crap, usually if they do that there is a chance you can rework and resend. You might consider changing the title and trying a different editor...but don't tell anyone I said that...
Mac - hehehe
Ronda Thompson - That is one editors opinion and believe me, opinions among editors vary on about every book
Carrie - my puter is not doing to well tonight... but I wanted to pop in and tell Ronda that I FINALLY got the book!
Mac - Me? Not emotional...**sobbing here**
Ronda Thompson - You did Carrie??? Great, I hope you like it.
Meesha - Mac!
Mary f - Right, it seems to me that it's a luck of the draw on the editor.
Ronda Thompson - Mac, you wouldn't believe some of the things editors have said to me in the past...sniff, downright insulting some of them
Meesha - Try and try again
Carrie - While I have to honestly say I had a hard time getting into it... but that has more to do with "Mommy she hit me, NO MOMMY THAT IS MINE!!!" Than anything else...
Mac - Emma Dunford -- Editorial Assistant
Ronda Thompson - Carrie, boy I understand that. You should try writing a hot sex scene with one of your kids yelling for toilet paper in the background...kind of kills the mood
Carrie - once I was able to confine kids.... I really enjoyed the book ... btw where can I get a "save the werewolf" t-shirt
Mac - Or a baby screaming in the background..kills it quicker than anything.
TriceCyn - LAQdies too sick to caht tonught..will see you later nioght
Mary f - ROTFLMAO Ronda~
Mac - LMAO, I loved that.
Meesha - LOL Ronda
Mary f - Night trice get well soon
Ronda Thompson - Carrie, I'm thinking of having some made up and giving them away as contest prizes on my site!
Carrie - LOL been there done that... I try to save sex cenes for AFTER they are in bed asleep.....
Ronda Thompson - Nite Trice, feel better and thanks again for ordering my book!
Mary f - YAY Ronda!
Mac - brb needs a bottle and the bed...lol
TriceCyn - tahnks MAry
Ronda Thompson - Do you guys think anyone would want one? The T-Shirt?
Carrie - but then again it is my firm belief that children are the BEST form of birth control!!!! mine do WONDERS for killing the mood whether I am writing or practicing with dh
Hunt4Me2 - heck I need a b/f after i read erotic scenes
Meesha - Mine does wonders at all times
Mary f - *what do you think I was yaying about?* YES
Ronda Thompson - LOL, Carrie, yeah, I know and you think when they get older it gets better, but they still need you at the most inoportune times
Meesha - Sigh...erotica...what is that
Carrie - I want one!
Hunt4Me2 - T-shirt of what Ronda?
Hunt4Me2 - b/f's what r they?
Ronda Thompson - Save The Werewolf, you'd understand if you read Call.
Mary f - WB Rose
Hunt4Me2 - lol it might make ppl look at you twice with that logo
Rose! - Me Ronda! I loved the idea!
Meesha - Gotta run Class early in morning. Here's to erotic dreams
Rose! - thanks...screen went white! i was still here...but wasn't
Mary f - Night Meesha
Ronda Thompson - Hi again Rose. I might have to do that for My Jan contest. Next month am giving away a copy of AT signed by all three authors
Rose! - Same to you Meesha!
Mac - I would want a t-shirt, Ronda...
Meesha - Night all
Mary f - OH! Great Prize Ronda!
Carrie - b/f = boyfriend : male freind of the human species, sometimes good for scratching sexual itches
Hunt4Me2 - Ronda dododo
Mac - At signed by all 3 authors...Yep, A MUST have....hehehe
Rose! - It would be a great contest prize! Specially for those who got the joke! I loved it myself!
Ronda Thompson - Okay, that's settled, going to have some done. Should have had a whole bunch made up for RT and given them away, but thought of it too late to do anything about it.
Mac - I need to finish my wolf story (shapeshifter) and submit it to Red Sage as planned....those dream sequences...
Carrie - ladies I am having problems with this site... so I am going to have to shut it down bye
Rose! - Bye Carrie!
Mac - later, Carrie
Mary f - Night Carrie
Hunt4Me2 - Carrie ...and opening jars
Ronda Thompson - Mac, glad you didn't let the rejection get you down. I always did for a couple of days then just got back to work
Ronda Thompson - Carrie
Rose! - I like the AT idea too Ronda! That is always a keeper.
Ronda Thompson - I must go and get back to my writing ladies, but thanks all for coming to chat and chatting up my book. I appreciate it so much.
Mary f - Hey Ronda remember how generous I was this month?
Mac - Well, I have a fanfic going on Christine's ezboard site...their begging for more tends to help get over stuff like that...that and the way they talk about how stupid the publishers are...lol
Hunt4Me2 - Niters Ronda
Ronda Thompson - Yes, I may just have to send a T-Shirt to all of my friends.
Hunt4Me2 - its always fun talking to u

Ronda Thompson - well, crap this thing is messing up...I said thanks ladies and have a great Turkey Day!
