Rainbow Snippets*-- All the Links!

(Keeping with today's Unicorn theme, I collected them when I was in High School. Here's a few special one's I kept.)

It's been an exciting week for me. My Headphones series is up for pre-order (In from the Cold, Sunshine Smile, and Fall Out) and we did the cover reveal for the Vampire anthology I'm participating in. Working Stiffs is a collection of 13 short stories with a shared universe about working Vampires and the people they love. It's a little tongue-in-cheek and a whole lot of fun. I also now have a FaceBook author page and I'm encouraging fellow authors to share/promo their books there.

I figure if I'm stuck at home, I'm going to put my time to good use!


Here's another excerpt from my story, Fangs for the Memories:
I tried to not stare but I couldn't help myself. He was exactly the same except his long white hair was streaked with a rainbow of colors and pulled up into a messy bun. An inch taller than my five foot nine, he was straight and lanky. There was no curve to him at all, not an ounce of fat. Under the sleeves of his dress shirt, I pictured his ropey forearms with raised veins, easy to trace with a fingertip, while his hip and rib bones would be well defined under his skin. I admittedly have a thing for skinny men.
 I still saw his translucent albino skin in my dreams, and his silvery blue eyes that darkened with anger. Or with desire. His feathery white eyelashes, his straight nose, his thin lips framing his over-wide mouth. When I’d met him, back when I was 19 and taking night classes, I thought he was the most exotic, beautiful person I’d ever met. 
He still was.
