Indulgent Bloghop Sept 16-22nd

 

Guilty Indulgence Review SiteWinner:                                                                   I am delighted to announce the randomly drawn winner of the prize [cue fanfare...]:
Cassandra
Well done.
Thank you to everyone for taking part. I'll be running lots of giveaways and hope you come by and take a chance again with me.
 


Writing:
 
Obviously, the first thing I like to indulge myself in is writing my own books. Why? Not surprising really. They come from my naughty
little imagination so I get to indulge in my own fantasy world, creating hot guys and even hotter scenarios to act out with them. Mmmm


 
**By the way, I'm giving away an ebook copy of my debut erotic romance novel to one lucky commentator. Be lucky!**

Books

Strangely enough for an erotic romance writer, although I adore reading hot, erotic fiction, I also like to indulge in historical novels, especially those of one of my all-time fave authors - Bernard Cornwell. I'm currently reading his trilogy about King Alfred of Wessex, fighting off the Dane invaders around 877 AD. It's spectacular. I've read the first one and have two more yummy novels to indulge in.



Other Stuff



I wouldn't last a moment without my cup of Earl Grey tea. I like it as it's made with a blend of China teas, so it is delicate and has that wonderful aroma and taste of oil of bergamot. I drink it with a little milk but NO sugar! It's a real pick-me-up, especially when I'm working a deadline and flagging.
Try it!

 
 
And where would I be without my bed? It's a cream coloured Victorian reproduction bedstead. It has twisted 'iron' railings at the head and foot with round corner 'newel' posts. It's big, with a deep, comfy mattress and I can sink into it  to dream, fantasize about my writing, read wonderful Bernard Cornwell books and drink Earl Grey tea. Perfect!

    I indulge myself by making time to read, I love a steamy book but I am also a huge history geek so I love to read (shock) non fiction accounts of historical figures, places and events :O) Thanks Carin
