Barbara Elsborg: April 2013

http://barbaraelsborg.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html

Monday, April 22, 2013. Every Move He Makes - out 7th May. Keeping an eye on his charge isn’t easy. Keeping his hands off? It took attending his own funeral to force Logan to accept a new life as an undercover MI6 agent. That doesn’t make his latest assignment any less aggravating. Babysitting a Russian pop star with delusions that someone’s trying to kill him. The first thing Logan learns is that his charge won’t do as he’s told. And there’s some secret behind his haunted eyes that...I felt for just a f...

Wednesday, February 12, 2014. Today is the day! My erotic romance Summer Girl, Winter Boy is out today with Ellora's Cave. Yippee. Jai Winter is trying to do the right thing, even though he knows it’s wrong. Forced to participate in kinky sex games, the renowned model spends his spare moments creating an impressive list of suicide options. Until a snowy day provides a bit of Summer…a pink-haired burst of sunshine w. Ith a ready smile. What begins as the hottest sex of his life turns into a ray of hope.

Barbara Elsborg: Authors behaving badly

http://barbaraelsborg.blogspot.com/2014/02/authors-behaving-badly.html

Monday, February 24, 2014. When my kids get all bent out of shape about something and want to right a perceived wrong, I always say - what end result do you want? Will it make everything right again? Because if it won't, then think twice about saying or doing anything. Cowardly behaviour is not right but better to walk away from confrontation that step it up into something you never wanted it to be. The world's a big place. We should be able to share nicely!

Barbara Elsborg: January 2013

http://barbaraelsborg.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html

Thursday, January 31, 2013. We want page turners, to be caught up in the world the author creates and this world DH Lawrence describes is long gone and of little interest to me. I will finish it. There are bits I've liked very much but I fear I'm not clever enough to understand anything but the sexy bits! I think I thought that the first time round. The thing that really tickles me is that my books, example above, would most definitely have been banned! Friday, January 25, 2013. Connor and Espen want a t...

Barbara Elsborg: July 2013

http://barbaraelsborg.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html

Tuesday, July 16, 2013. They're both shits to her. She really shouldn't pick either but I'm a writer of romance - I have to let this book have a happy ending, even if it's a suspense story and not a true romance. But how? Thursday, July 11, 2013. I'd always sort of thought it should stay in the closet but I have a hankering to get it out and read it again and see if it's maybe not as bad as I remembered. I know it's gloomy so I'll have to lighten it up a bit but maybe I can bring it back to life. Tonight...

Barbara Elsborg: August 2013

http://barbaraelsborg.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html

Tuesday, August 20, 2013. It used to be that finding an agent was the way to get your book published. Some publishers were prepared to accept unsolicited manuscripts but many weren't. I can't remember how many letters and first chapters I sent out full of hope only to get a rejection by return of post, or months later or over a year later in two cases. Did I ever get close? No, not really. Most letters I had were form rejections no matter how 'sympathetically or supportively' they were worded. I do worry...

Barbara Elsborg: May 2013

http://barbaraelsborg.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html

Thursday, May 30, 2013. Why oh why do I struggle so much with the first few chapters of my books. I suspect it's because I don't plot. So by the time I work out who's who and roughly what might happen, I have to backtrack and fill in details to make it all make sense. Current WIP - called - oh yes, I have a title! Eight chapters in - about a third of the way through and I have no idea - bar one - what is going to happen. That's fun too because I take the journey with my characters. Thursday, May 23, 2013.

Monday, September 23, 2013. Naughty No-No's Blog Hop. I've joined the Naughty No-No's Blog Hop! What's your guilty pleasure? What's my guilty pleasure? The one thing I can't resist?

Barbara Elsborg: June 2013

http://barbaraelsborg.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html

Friday, June 21, 2013. Am I easily distracted? Photo courtesy of Chile's public affairs office. Friday, June 14, 2013. An exciting, excellent, extraordinary read! I've just read the box set of Boreal and John Grey by my friend Chrystalla Thoma. If you like fantasy, paranormal stories, elves, strange creatures, lots of action and a touch of romance, you really need to give this a try. Now the Gates are opening once more between worlds and the elves are back. This is urban fantasy verging on paranormal rom...
