Even though I slept great last night, for some reason I felt like going back to bed after breakfast today.
Took the cup of coffee upstairs, hung out in bed with about 4 or 5 (?) cats. Slept a little more. Finally got back out of bed but I feel sort of at loose ends right now.
I know I should probably force myself to take a day off and just relax, but I am getting really close to finishing the editing on the M. Christian tribute anthology.
If I can get 2 short pieces edited today, that leaves me with only one long story to do sometime this coming week — and, in essence, the book will be done.
Anyway. We shall see if I can force myself to relax today or not!!

Okay!
Before I forget.
Starting tomorrow the Kindle edition of my short story collection “A Man in her Arms & Other Stories” will be free to download for the week.
I don’t think you have to belong to Kindle Unlimited to get it for free. (Not all the stories are explicit erotica, but it is still Absolutely for Adults Only, thank you!)
Table of Contents:
- A Man in her Arms
- A Path to the Woods (A Ghost Story)
- Score
- Code
- Alter/Soldier
- To My Beloved I Am a Stranger
- Common Place
- Wanted
- Legacy of Boy
- Half- Moon Bride

And here’s a curious — although really nice! — thing.
Amazon claims there is “only one print copy of The Curse of our Profound Disorder left in stock (more on the way)”!
I guess this means people are actually buying the book. I think the eBook is selling even a little better. But absolutely no one besides Ron Bass in NYC has reviewed it… so who knows, gang.

Also, yesterday, while searching through some really old files for a specific story by Michael Hemmingson, I discovered the manuscripts for my erotic romance novel, When Hearts Collide (this was distributed exclusively by Barnes & Noble stores, in 2003, and it sold, overall, 10,000 copies).
And another erotic short story collection, Ribbon of Darkness & Other Stories, that I printed privately on LULU — it has never been for sale. I gave it to a handful of people as a gift. This was back in 2009.
Even though the short story collection has stories that appear in various other anthologies of mine, I’m thinking of re-publishing both these books as specially-priced eBooks on Amazon.
I was thinking of doing this because, you know, I’ve got nothing else to do right now…

And I believe that is it for now.
And any moment, I will decide if I’m going to work on the editing today, or relax. We shall soon find out.
Either way, enjoy your Sunday, wherever you are in the world, gang!
Thanks for visiting.
I love you guys. See ya!

Let’s close with this!
Dwight Yoakam & KD Lang, live, in 1989, singing “Sin City” by Gram Parsons & Chris Hillman.
KD and Dwight first did this duet on Dwight’s album, Just Lookin’ For A Hit, in 1988.
Enjoy, gang.
