Update time

So I've been making really good use of the time I've had off over half term.  What goes around comes around is now available in a print version, with Full Circle hot on its heels (I'll be shouting about it when they're both out.) In addition I went back to the first book in a contemporary fantasy trilogy I wrote for my kids. It was the first thing I ever started to write and I have to say it showed, so I ended up rewriting masses of it.  But it's done now and is being proofed.  More importantly my kids like it (they may be biased).
Finally I've got back to a new contemporary romance I started a little while ago and the words are now flowing.  A title finally emerged today (WARNING - it may change!) - Compromise Agreement.
I know I'm enjoying writing it because I resent every time I'm dragged back into the real world... Watch this space :)

Precious

I'm reading a great series at the moment, I'm really enjoying it.  The only slight issue I have is that the main term of endearment the leading man uses is 'precious'.  Is it only me that struggles to hear that word without thinking of Golum?

Other words I've particularly enjoyed recently include - cockstand.  I've had a bit of a glut on historical romances, and never having heard that particular description for an erection before, I have to say I actually sniggered.  And I thought I'd heard  / read them all!

Always interested in any other terms people have read that have amused them.....
