What is Portia doing at the moment? |
| I’m currently working on a paranormal erotic romance novel, GOTHIC HEAT, which is a sequel to my 1996 title for Black Lace, Gothic Blue. It’s quite tricky to return to characters and a situation I left behind over decade ago, but I’m enjoying the wild ride and a repeat visit to spooky Sedgewick Priory. I’m also busy promoting my latest contemporary release, SUITE SEVENTEEN and anticipating the release of a short novella called EYES OF DESIRE, as well as a vampire novella BUDDIES DON’T BITE, later in the year. When I’m not doing either of the above, I’m often to be found writing in my blog at Wendy's Blog where I chatter on about my daily life, my writing, my love of chocolate, television and my cats... and my obsession with my crush du jour, Vincent D’Onofrio. I have a mailing list at Planet Portia Why not join up? |
