So this week is a game of two halves…
Writing
The first half (or 3/5 to be exact, less the time it takes me to get my nails done!) is writing AND FINISHING The Ex Factor (Bodyguard 2). It is currently at 25,000 words and will be around 40,000 and I want it off to my Beta before Thursday.
MM Writers Retreat
The second half of the week (Or 2/5) is Thursday and Friday at the inaugural MM Writers Retreat… two days, one night, authors in a country hotel in the middle of nowhere… plotting and planning and probably drinking also…
The authors have this group idea to create a series based around the beautiful house we are staying in… watch this space for more… on my twitter, FB & instagram I will hashtag with #mmwritersretreat for any news or interesting gossip. Very excited and if all goes well I will probably organise to do something like this again, later this year or early next… The website featuring the first brave writers to attend is here: http://ukwritersretreat.weebly.com/
Releases
The Italian Translation of The Christmas Throwaway will be available this Friday. I am so excited to see how this one does… ๐
Texas News
Due to the unfailing poking from several millionty people… looks at you all pointedly, you know who you are… there is an extreme likelihood that there will be a Texas 6, at the moment titled Texas Fall. Written and due for release around GRL again I think… I have had two or three stories in my head for the longest time but I sincerely thought I would be boring you all by writing them. Turns out that isn’t true according to emails and posts, so, I give in… Texas Fall is aiming for an early October release. And no I will NEVER have Jack and Riley apart, or dead, or maimed… although I may hurt them a bit they will NEVER doubt their love for each other or their families.
Sanctuary News
I’m not sure I have enough hours in the day but there will be a Sanctuary 8… just not sure of title or release date yet…
UK Meet
Looking forward to attending and planning marketing and book orders daily… is awesome.

So, I was reading this post in a hurry 'cause it's 4 a.m. and I'm more sleepy than awake… and then I see the cover for TCT with an italian title, and soon after I read this: "The Italian Translation of The Christmas Throwaway will be available this Friday."…
I was so surprised and happy at the same time! Whoa, one of my fav book in my language? Bring it on!
But then, I remembered the french and spanish version that are only available on Amazon, and I went from happiness to sadness 'cause I don't have an Amazon account– but most important, I don't have a Kindle so even if I had an account there I wouldn't be able to read it! TT__TT So sad.
RJ Scott says
๐ i will organise getting them onto All Romance so you can get the epub… ๐
