X-posted from my Yahoo group. I know some of you have NO clue as to what I'm talking about regarding messages and such, but I'm too lazy/hurried/tired to make out something else. Catch you all when I get back....I hope :-)

As some of you may know, I live in South Texas. Right on the Gulf Coast to be exact. The storm track, as it stands now, is heading right toward us. Direct hit, if it maintains that track. Never know with these damned hurricanes, though. It could wobble in any number of directions before it decides which way it wants to go.
Right now, we're under a mandatory evacuation order, so I'm going to be signing off for a few days (hopefully that'll be all). I may or may not have limited internet access where we're headed. Feel free to email (as I have an unlimited capacity server for my email), but please don't expect a response before Monday 09/26/05 at the earliest.
As most of you know, all new member posts are moderated -- which is to decrease spammer activity. I will not be able to ok them until I get back online. So don't be discouraged or think that your post might have been deleted. I will get to those as soon as I can. There are some of you that I *know* aren't spammers, but I just haven't had the time to go in and reset your accounts. I'll get to these ASAP as well.
Also, as I think I have mentioned before, there is a forum on my website now. http://www.jourdanlane.com/discuss . Feel absolutely free to go over there, read the threads or even start new ones. Just be civil until I get back :-)
The group has had a restricted membership for a while now. I am opening that up until I return.
Um....I think that's it for now. Everyone else in Texas......and in the southwestern parts of Louisiana (as I think they have watches all the way to Cameron)............please be safe!
HUGS!!

Cowboy Up!

In May, I had a short story titled, "Surrender" accepted to be in Cowboy Up, an anthology edited by Rob Knight over at TorquerePress.com. The anthology came out today and is now available for purchase. I just LOVED the cover!!
Also, I had the opportunity to be one of the featured authors over at Torquere press this month. Very, very cool!!
This month also marks the second anniversary of Torquere Press. These guys have done nothing but get better in the past two years and, if I do say so myself, they've got some of the best authors in e-publishing!
But wait, they're not just e-publishing anymore. Three of their best-selling titles are now available in print!
- Bareback by Chris Owen
- Three Day Passes by Sean Michael
- Jumping into Things by Julia Talbot
I can honestly say that while I love all 3? Bareback is my all-time favorite. Oh, and while you're browsing around over at Torquere Press...take a look at these:
- The Long Road Home by BA Tortuga
- Gemini by Chris Owen
Both truly wonderful stories!! So...hop on over to Torquere Press: http://www.torquerepress.com/ and have a look around. I promise you will NOT be disappointed!!
A Rumor Of Angels...
Ok, new story that I'm working on and researching for. Yes, another one :-)
Demons are finding their way out of Hell, wreaking havoc on earth and trying to find their way into Heaven. Zephyr and his team of Warrior Angels has been sent to find the portal and send the demons straight back to Hell.
There's only one problem. One of the demons that escaped the fiery depths of Hell -- was never supposed to be there. In fact, Eluriel isn't a demon at all.
When Zephyr and Eluriel meet, sparks fly -- and it isn't just in battle.

Ok, so I suck at blurby things...but that's the very, very small gist of the story. This will be my first "fantasy" type story, so we'll see if I can actually pull it off. I'm already looking forward to it and have a few character images that fit perfectly with Zephyr. Find them HERE and HERE.
Isn't he gorgeous?!
OMG! *is shameful at lack of updating*
Even though I keep saying I'll get better and post more often, I just seem to get busier. Heh, maybe I should say I'm not going to post at all...then maybe I won't be as busy.
Damned Karma. Never know how to fool her.
Anyway, as I said, things have been incredibly busy here.
Family stuff.
Writing.
More family stuff.
More writing....hey, more on the writing in a bit :-)
