The Next Big Thing! (Week Twenty-six)

This is Lori. Isn't she cool?
Last week, I was asked by my fellow eKensington author, Lori Sjoberg, (visit her here), to participate in the Next Big Thing blog game.

Rule 1: Answer these ten questions about your current work in progress on your blog.
 So here we go!

1- What is the working title of your book?

Dracula Unleashed





    2- Where did the idea come from for the book?
In Dracula’s Secret and Dracula’s Desires (the two previous novels),  I know that I had to have my heroine face  her past one last time before she could truly relax and be happy with her two male partners and her new baby.

    3- What genre does your book fall under?
Paranormal romance

    4- Which actors would you choose to play your characters in a movie rendition?
Daniel Craig for Lance Soleil, a non-sexist Dean Martin for John Janté,  a dark haired Lucy Lawless for Valerie
         
Hello, Mr. Good Guy!


    5- What is the one-sentence synopsis of your book?
There are no parenting books for vampires.

    6- Will your book be self-published or represented by an agency?
This book will be published by eKensington and released in March of 2013.

    7- How long did it take you to write the first draft of your manuscript?
I had five months to write the entire story.

    8- What other books would you compare this story to within your genre?
Emma Holly’s vympr series combined with Laurell K. Hamilton’s Merry Gentry

    9- Who or What inspired you to write this book?
My characters,  John, Lance, and Valerie, were all very clear that they had more to say.

    10- What else about your book might pique the reader's interest?
Hot, uninhibited sex, heroes who want to save the world, redemption, and quite possibly the most confused mother on the planet.



Now, there was a Rule 2: Tag five other authors to play and link.

Well, due to life constraints, I wasn't able to tag five other authors.  (Sorry Lori! I suck). However, I was so inspired by this blog game, that I emailed my female friends who make a living in the arts (not just writing), and we will be playing a variation of this game next week.

Entrants include:

Saqra, Master Belly Dancer
Kim Sakkara, Clothing Designer
Jessa Slade, Author of the amazing Marked Souls series.
Grace Constantine, Belly Dance Instructor
