I've had a few questions about the girl in the cover art. No, she's not my main character, Lissa. Lissa doesn't have a tattoo at the start of the novel, and she spends a decent amount of effort trying to avoid getting one.

Don't you just love plot devices?

So, here is the first scene where you really see Rainne, the lovely lady pictured on the cover.

Rainne was next, her walnut hair catching highlights from the stage lighting as she strutted down the walkway of the stage. Her blue sequined thong set sparkled in the flashing light; drawing out the bronze in her tanned, oiled skin and making her eye tattoo seem to wink as she walked. She carried a shot glass filled with a drink that glowed equally blue under the blacklights. "Drink up!" she said cheerfully as she placed the glass to Lissa’s lips. Lissa swallowed the shot quickly, shuddering a bit as she felt the bitter alcohol hit her system, wondering what the hell would happen next. Rainne pressed her body against Lissa, cupping Lissa’s face in her hands, kissing her deeply to the cheers of the watching men.

I'm apparently SEVERELY slow on the uptake. This is your story? You're writing a story?

OMFG!

I'm writing one too, but I had to begin in the middle and then write the pieces as they came to me.

I'm always writing a story, hon. ;)

This particular story was written as part of NaNoWriMo 2005. I found a publisher who'd take it last year, and it should be available (in ebook format) in the next 2-3 months. If it sells well, it should hit print a couple of months after that. The more ebook sales I do, the sooner it'll be available in print.
