The Twelve Ideas of Christmas #5

The Moonrise Trilogy

From Novel #1 Synopsis:

No one in the outside world knows that the residents of Frenchman’s Pass, a remote Colorado mountain town, are Ahnclann, immortal wolf-like beasts who take human form in daylight. Town sheriff Ethan Jemmet wants to keep it that way, too. Although a quirk of genetics has kept Ethan forever locked in a human body, he knows only too well the dangers of exposing the town’s secrets. In human form the Ahnclann are almost as vulnerable as any mortal, but as beasts they are unparalleled hunter-killers.

The only human Ethan trusts is his lover, Valori Trovatella, whose erotic effect on him is as strong as her unwavering loyalty and affection. Ethan wants Lori as his mate, but she’s still a stranger to his people, who distrust her. Colleen Clayton, an Ahnclann female who has always wanted Ethan, stirs up trouble by claiming that Lori is only interested in selling out the pack to the human world. Ethan’s unruly twin brother Nathan only makes matters worse when he proposes they try to change her into Ahnclann.

The Moonrise paranormal romance trilogy was another pitch of mine that NY passed on. It spins off the story from Frostfire and features the secondary characters of Ethan and Nathan Jemmet, Valori Trovatella and the residents of Frenchman's Pass. It's also a kinda-sorta menage romance. I outlined three full-length novels but never got a chance to write them. I'd probably write all three because, well, trilogy. :)

The Moonrise Trilogy is Idea #5.

Old Loves & Such

My guy kindly bought me my favorite Chinese take out the other night, and my fortune cookie offered up an interesting story starter: This sounds sweet, right? Only the first thing I thought of was an old love coming back from the dead . . . . must be October. In other lovely news, my favorite hand-dyed thread artist, Lorraine from Colour Complements , is moving her business from Etsy to her own web site. Many of my favorite sellers on Etsy are leaving due to the whole "free shipping" coercion debacle, which has also soured me on the site. To show support I did a little shopping at Lorraine's web site and got in these: I love her threads and trims; you simply can't buy anything like them anywhere. Her work makes my specialty thread box look like a treasure chest: At night I'm spending just as hour working on quilting the scrap project runner, and I'm making slow progress: I'll keep quilting the runner while I try to decide on a design for t...

Love Means This

Invested in a couple of hand-dyed bundles from one of my favorite fabric artists. This one said "Make me into something for Valentine's Day." So I went for a quilted and embellished tote. I kept thinking about what love means to me as I worked on it. Here's the finished tote. Although I was tempted to embellish with beads and pins, I got sick and only felt well enough to do a little stitching every night. As I worked I thought about how often love seems disappointing to us, especially when it fails to live up to our expectations. But now that I've experienced love in many forms, I can say that it's made me a better person than I might have been without it. Love is a precious thing, and should be appreciated in all its forms. I am very grateful for the love of my guy, my child and my friends who have stuck with me all these years. That's you two, in case you're wondering. :) Also finally found something to do with a ve...

Progress

My guy is back home safe, sound and exhausted. I think he just realized he's over seventy now. :) I didn't finish a sewing project while he was gone, but I did make some progress on the beach bag. I've tacked down all the fabric elements on top of the old backing fabric I quilted. Time to break out the embroidery thread box and have some fun.
