Blurb

Feline Mosaic, Charis Sur, thought her mission aboard the INS Pagidion would be quick and easy. All she has to do is watch her target and keep him alive until Betelgeuse goes nova.

Simple. Until one of the passengers drops dead in front of her.

Suddenly everything is not simple. Her life depends on a successful mission and she has to protect her target from whatever killed this man. That throws her into the path of Jason Narak, the one man she never wanted to see again. The man who burned her six months before. Yet, even as her past with Jason hurls her mission, her life into disarray, Charis finds that…something…is waiting for them aboard the INS Pagidion.

It calls itself darkness. And it needs a host.

Racing to a deadline

On By Kim KnoxIn Dark Host, sale!, Writing

Sorry for the lack of posts…but I’m racing to a deadline to get my shifter story finished. Argh

Good news is that I sold Dark Host to Liquid Silver Books đŸ˜€

Here’s the blurb:

Feline Mosaic, Charis Sur, thought her mission aboard the INS Pagidion would be quick, easy: watch her target and keep him alive until Betelgeuse went nova.

Simple.

Well, until one of the passengers drops dead in front of her.

Her life depends on a successful mission and she has to protect her target from whatever killed this man. And that throws her into the path of Jason Narak. The one man she never wants to see again. The man who burned her six months before. Even as her past with Jason hurls her mission, her life into disarray, Charis finds that darkness is waiting for them aboard the INS Pagidion.

It wants a host. And its choice is growing…

And I have to run again!

Brava phonecall

I got a phone call from Kate Duffy *grin*

I’m not sure I was very coherent, at all.  Then technology conspired against me and I got cut off, lol

Anyway, what I can remember and now that I’ve stopped shaking so I can type, is that I was her second choice. (Congrats to Eve Powers for being the Editor’s Choice, btw)  I handled first person well and I seem to remember something about the world building and the spaceship.  She asked to see more stuff and I said Dark Host was already in New York (hopefully).  Her assistant will dig it out.

I’ll have to follow up with an email tomorrow to confirm exactly what I should do.  My mind had too much adrenalin and not even coherent thought rushing through it, lol

A week without a blog post. How bad am I? And how long does a week feel? lol

So news, news, news!

Well, the Brava Novella Contest has opened to voting.

My entry is No 142 Dark Host by Kim Knox. You can go here:

http://www.bravaauthors.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=215

to vote for me! hehe

Seriously, you get the chance to vote for up to three of your fav entries. As a guest, you can read the 20 finalists but you have to sign up (its free and painless…honest) to vote.

In other writing news, I sold Weaving Words to Samhain. *grin*, I have the first edits for The Honourable Lady and the print copies of Past Lies came yesterday. I pulled in my nerve and ran over to the library with a copy of it and a copy of Buying Mackenzie’s Baby. The librarian seemed very happy to take them *grin*

And other things. We have topsoil in the garden and yesterday I saved a frog from a magpie, lol

It got me

I’ve been fighting a cold for about a fortnight, but today it finally pinned me down and stuffed me full of mucus. Joy.

I did struggle out to the post office and put Dark Host in the post to Brava. And I’ve added to the word count of both Fracture and Chosen, so now I might have to curl up in a mound of soggy tissues and quietly veg. *blech*

Inspiration

On By Kim KnoxIn Dark Host

So I’ve been participating in the FTDB (Finish That Damn Book) over on the Daughters of Circe yahoo group. It’s got me to also 23k on Dark Host, which is nice. I’ve spent two days on one sex scene, but that is sorted and now I have to work out the Big Ending. So I may return to plotting on paper to work out what Jason and Charis have to do.

Meanwhile this has also been proving an inspirational diversion
