First rejection slip back today! (we don't have any distributors in NZ, which sounds better than your work is crap!)
 
This is just like job applications!

A long while back, a few of you readers said the story could use more interaction between characters. How does this work?
 

The cool night air blew gently through the insect screens of my caravan. It was a warm night and we were lying on top of the linen sheets, enjoying each others company, the sounds of the party dying away as the others headed to their beds.

"I always feel like I’m being a bit unfaithful being with you!", stated Jane, "it just seems to me like you should be with Jenny!"

"Jenny and I have always been two professionals working together", I explained, "She approves of our arrangement- that’s one of the good things about a very long life- you tend to get over that possessiveness stuff!"

"But you and Jenny have never..?", Jane started.

"No, don’t know why, but the time was never right and I guess we didn’t want to risk what we had", I explained.

"I think you should, some day soon!", stated Jane, "and for the record, I approve!"

"No need to rush things!", I said.

"Really- you seemed to be in a bit of a hurry a few minutes ago!", said Jane, giggling.

"Just so I can do it again", I agreed, biting her neck.

"In that case�?

Just done yet another edit, to the whole thing- I needed to put action breaks (three asterisx's) between the scene changes. Something publishers seem to want.
 
Latest stuff on the site, in word RTF and txt.
 
I'm now working on part II of book two, but won't put that on-line until it is finished. In this part, we go back three years before the first book starts and get to know the characters a bit more. This part is set in early New Zealand. Got about 8000 words done, so far.

Done- 'Book 2 whole text only', is the latest file.
 
 
DO you know there is freeware called Open Office that lets you use Word?

AS blogs are more popuar than MSn, thesedays, I started a blog:
 
 
I post a couple of chapters each day and three days later, I have had 30% of the hits the MSN site had in it's whole existance.
 
Yesterday, one of the major NZ players wrote a peice recommending the story and now it's really taking off.
 
It can only help me get published, if I can point to a website that has lots of traffic!
 
Got the tip from another new author, who write in the same genre.
