He wants Felicia to pose with a new product.
All she can think about is finding a way to get into Aaron's heart
...and his pants.

Mary Elizabeth hustled back into the studio with a brown box in her hands. "Aaron, that was a courier. I signed for you."
"What is it?" he called, stepping back out into the open.

"I dunno. From a company called Oral Fixations?"

A big smile brightened his face almost immediately. "Oh, yeah! I've been waiting for that. Talk about luck!" He went over to the small table where he kept his prop materials, and opened the package. After removing a layer of bubble wrap, he lifted out something purple on a stick. Felicia squinted to see what it was.

"Hey, not bad," Aaron commented almost to himself. He inspected the item, then pulled a second and third item from the box. The second one was pinkish, but the third was a wild rainbow of colors. The third one Aaron handed over to Mary Elizabeth, who stared at it in fascination.

Curiosity got the better of her. "What is it?" Felicia called out.

"Yeah. What do they call this?" the makeup artist asked.

Aaron glanced at the paper included in the package. "It's one of several new products this company wants to start advertising in select magazines. I spoke to them yesterday, and they said they'd send over a few samples. This one is called **** on a Stick."

He threw part of his grin over at Felicia. "I had thought about having either you or Roxie for the shoot. But since you're already here, guess you win out. I want to get some test shots done up for the client, and if they approve, we can go from there. Got the time?"

Did she have the time? Other than a trip to the market and a date with the latest Pitt movie just out on DVD, she'd made no other plans. Felicia flashed him her best photogenic smile. "Bring it on!"

I'm in the Top Ten!

Last month a Google alert brought my attention to a poll I'd been completely unaware of. Some of you may be familiar with Preditors & Editors, a website dedicated to listing the good, the bad and the ugly in publishing (http://anotherealm.com/prededitors/). Well, apparently every year they also run a poll for readers to find out the best of the year in writing. My book, They Call Me Death, was listed in the Thriller category and tied for ninth place.

To say I'm pleased would be a vast understatement. I'm ecstatic! However, I'm very surprised at being nominated in that particular category when there was also Romance or Science Fiction & Fantasy to choose from. My book is about a human woman and a man who can shift into a Golden Eagle. They eventually fall in love. Romance or Sci-fi/Fantasy, take your pick. I guess there are some thrilling elements in the story and I'm certainly NOT complaining. I'm just...surprised.

So, now you will see a nifty logo on my homepage stating that I'm in the top ten for 2009 at my website. Anyone who finds me in a forum or chat room may have to hear about it too. And, if you're a close friend or relative you will be receiving a "Thank you" email for voting. But, I promise not to gloat...too much.
