Baby ~ the Alien


















Okay, my hep Big Cats, the Kougar had another blog planned for today. However...meow instead, just enjoy this pic of Baby, the Alien, who is alive and well at the Roswell UFO Festival.

Here's the link for all the pics ~

And enjoy this snipped from moi's current WIP ~

"What are you going to do? Heat me up with your dynamite super sex appeal?" Her blood on bubbly sizzle from him and their soaring flight, Sable took another look downward. The mountain peaks shone like gargoyle lairs, higher and more jagged.

Finally, take leisurely walk over to Title Magic and enjoy Lexie O'Neill's introduction of herself. Moi's mew-sings below.
Hi Lexie, nice pic. Good idea about intros. Although, I'm not sure, at this point, the best way to accomplish them.
It sounds like from what you said about your rejection letters, that your novels would fit a niche market more than mainstream. Have you explored small print publishers who are successful with your type of stories?

Summer livin' smooch from the Kougar...

Flash of the Fire Seeker Princess

The Kougar is feeling it, my Big Kitties, summer is taking over her svelte form, and the urge to lounge lazily is like sniffing lavender...maowww...where's the comfy bed?
Flashing at Liquid Silver's SExpression's blog with Mima, was all about the baking sunrays, the last time the Kougar clicked over...and, if you're in the mood for some m/m genre flashing today is your day, stride on over.

From moi's WIP ~ Fire Seeker Princess ~ Chapter One

ONE
June 1, 2007 – Princess Shalarri of the Kwelstar Worlds opened her arms wide in celebration of the rising sun. The new day was gloriously hot already. Standing on her small deck, she stretched like a happy feline. Completely nude, Shala greeted the sun as she did most every morning on the backwards primitive planet called Earth, at least, by most of the sentient inhabitants.
She smiled, feeling the bliss of sun rays soaking into her skin, saturating her to her core. She waved to the sunrise male jogger. He waved, his gaze glued to her body as he trotted by–
TWO
The jogger had become dedicated to enjoying her female form almost since the day of her arrival, about one earth year ago.
Fortunately earth males were easy to control. All she had to accomplish was the draining of their fire energy, enough, in whatever area of their body or mind she wished. It had become routine for her, no matter how dangerous the attacker, from the Men in Black to the rare rapist. It was even mischievous fun on some occasions. She giggled within, recalling how hilarious it was to watch their proud mating bulges diminish, wither to hanging hotdogs.

The fire seeker princess flames a kiss your way...

Lazy Days on the Tame Prairie

Meow-stretching hello, my Beautiful Big Cats. Moi needs a hammock and some time lazing around in the sun and shade of her tame prairie. With all the rainstorms passing through it's a regular jungle out there! Yep, her little brain is spinning like a top and quickly toppling into tired.
Today, the Kougar did spend some quality chat time with her Siren and BookStrand author buddies at the Midnight Seductions chat loop. Take a stroll, Cool Cats, and a peek at all the spicy, very sexy excerpts.
And, the Kougaress penned a couple of good scenes on her current WIP, Black Cat Beauty ~ a purr-seductive story for Halloween. Hmmm-roarrrr, it's not quite midnight, perhaps Sable Kiki will engage in a midnight seduction of her own...

On the shapeshifter front, Celia Kyle, erotic romance author with Liquid Silver Books, is kindly setting up a web site for LSB shifter stories ~ shapeshifterromance.com ~

Now for you, my adorable and adored Big Cats, the blurb for When a Good Angel Falls ~ currently on the coming soon page of BookStrand ~ bookstrand.com ~

Let Freedom Ring


"Gentlemen, Altho it is not possible to forsee the consequences of human actions, yet it is nevertheless a duty we owe ourselves and posterity in all our public councils to decide in the best manner we are able and to trust the event to That Being who governs both causes and events, so as to bring about his own determinations.
Impressed with this sentiment, and at the same time fully convinced that our affairs will take a more favorable turn, The Congress have judged it necessary to dissolve all connection between Great Britain and the American Colonies, and to declare them free and independent States as you will perceive by the enclosed Declaration, which I am directed to transmit to you."

Tangerine Magic for the Cool Cats

Tangerine Magic just for the Cool Cats ~
From the moment I heard the word ‘tangerine’ I felt enchanted. Why? I don’t have a clue, except that I simply luv the sound of the word itself. Of course, once I saw the brilliant red-orangey color, then smelled a tangerine...that sun-exotic tangy sweet fragrance...and, even better, tasted a tangerine, I was completely bewitched, and even more in love with everything tangerine.
Yep, Tangerine, a great name, a great packaging color, a great smell and a great taste. It’s healthy and it’s portable.
So, you may ask, where did the name originate from? Tangiers, of course. Because that’s where this variety of mandarin orange was shipped from at first, the ports of Tangier. The ‘-ine’ was added according to my secret intel...yeah, right (info via internet search)...as in the city of Florentine in Italy.
However, I say the Word Magicians waved their ever-powerful wands from behind the secret garden curtain, from whence the most wonderful and spectacular words originate...and voila, Tangerine was created for the enjoyment of All.
Now, the next fab four event in my love affair with the word ~ The Beatles ~ and the song written by Paul McCartney and John Lennon, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. The instant I heard that song, I was again enchanted and totally transported via my imagination into a fantasy-like world, one which could only be experienced within the imagination...and, one of the keys, I believe, to why psychedelic music and the movement, itself, held its own sorcery. Like Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, it could be experienced within the dimension of the imagination and the mind. We fiction writers know about that intimately, the imagination, where our stories live and wait to be written.The psychedelic age provided a new excitement, a starship of music and culture to explore the frontiers of the mind. Life had begun anew, or think a Jimi Hendrix poster vs the iconic magazine covers of Norman Rockwell.
Okay, I’ve sorta gotten off track...sorta. Picture yourself in a boat on a river, With tangerine trees and marmalade skies ~ the first two lines of Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds (actually inspired by John Lennon’s son, Julian, a childhood drawing he called by that name) ~ Not only did I fall in love with those lines, and the entire song, I was beautifully beguiled. And there it was again, firing up my imagination with flowing dreamy and magnificent images ~ that word, the color. Tangerine.What if there was a tangerine world? The color, that is...yep, I invented that world in my novella, Tangerine Carnal Dreams. And had an awfully fun time building this world. And, yep, the edits are finalized. Whew!
And thus, we have arrived at promo time. For those who don’t enjoy erotic romance, or stallion shape shifting or a heroine who can and does shoot fire from her palm, please forego the following excerpt. While there is no nudity or actual sex, still...there are naughty words and I want you to be warned.

Happy Fireworks and Freedom day!

Tangerine Carnal Dreams ~ Savanna Kougar ~ coming from Aspen Mountain Press
Excerpt: From Chapter One ~

"Katta! Where are you? I’ve lost your blink on the netscope."
"I’m here, Jessa. Power-divert to tracking. I’ve got him, sis. I’ve got the son of a wormhole." Katta struck her relay panel forcing more power to her speed system. The old spacecraft jerked forward, into a new warp level-humming loudly, vibrating roughly.
"Come on, you bucket of silicon bolts. You know I luv ya."
"Katta, where are you?" Jessa’s voice bounced in and out, shrill with concern.
"Looks like our personal villain is on the fast trail to Yemisque."
"Yemisque! Katta, no. It’s not worth it."
"I don’t care. I’m going to get him."
"He can hide, do anything to you–almost anything." Jessa amended, having enjoyed Yemisque’s free wheeling sex pleasures often.
"I’ve gotta get it back. I’m not letting Dad go down the devil’s asshole. He’ll lose everything..."
"Katta, even you can’t–"
"I see it, Jessa. Tangerine as those gumdrops you gobble. Yep! His vapor fart swirls down to that planet lust-playground."
"Come back..." Her sister’s worried voice crackled faintly.
"Sorry, sis. Gotta cut you free."
Katta hit communications’ access with a swift hard slam of her fist. Then punched on the opening to Yemisque."Tangerine carnal dreams, here I come," she muttered fiercely, on fire with capturing her prey.
Automated landing instructions flowed, a sensual male crooning, translated into her birth language.
"Yeah, that’s what I’m coming for, a really hard-lunging time. Oh baby, give it to me, harder, oooooh harder," she mocked. Quickly, she set the rickety, but plucky craft on cruise.
Katta stretched, relieving the tight anticipation of her muscles. "I don’t suppose it’ll be a flush-out run to the nearest fornicating mecca. Get my quarry. Then get out. I wish. Upon a trillion zillion stars."
"Corporal Kattalonia Svelle of Windsworld, an interview once you land."
The Adonis male beamed a sensual smile from her antiquated screen. Her breath caught in her chest. Just for a moment. His clear blue lake eyes transfixed her, tripped her heart beat. Just for a moment.
"Sure, Master of Security. Could use your assistance. And you’re not half-bad to gaze longingly upon. How’s the wife?"
"In rambunctious heat. I’m in carnal paradise. Still playing the ice spinster, Corporal?"
"Too much chasing the bad galactic guy. No time for rambunctious lusting. See ya on the ground, handsome." Katta raised one brow. "No men hiding in the bushes, right? Ready to abscond with my unwilling body?"
Yemisque’s Master of Security merely fondled her with his smile, then blipped free of her screen.
Katta shook her head, then her entire body, freeing herself. His presence was all passion- encompassing. And a reminder she required a garment change to undercover gear.
"Trashy space babe coming up, or going down to..." Stretching, she slowly combed her fingers through her hair. "Oh, my goddess!" she whispered, an image of a male cock coming up, the idea of her going down on him. "I’m already ruined."

Tangerine kisses from the Kougar...

Jimi Gaskin, O He of the Cute Smile


Big Kool Kats, O He of the Cute Smile ~ Jimi Gaskin is a guest at Title Magic ~ titlemagic.blogspot.com ~ This is Helen's intro

Jimi Gaskin, Feeling Poetic! Posted by Helen Scott Taylor at 1:08 AM
I'm delighted to welcome James Gaskin as our guest blogger today. Jimi was one of the runners up in Mr. Romance 2008 at the Romantic Times Convention. We had the pleasure of meeting him in Pittsburgh, and he is very much a gentleman of the old school. During the Mr. Romance contest he played a British Lord from one of Bonnie Vanak's historical romances and I think he has found his niche.
Jimi gives us a glimpse into his romantic soul with his thoughts on the meaning of life, in a poem.

Moi Mew-sings below...
Hawaii...oh my, I got to visit once. Maui was peaceful and spectacularly beautiful. I loved just walking around, looking at the scenery and garden yards, and, of course, the ocean. I actually got to ride a horse through a pineapple plantation and along the beach. One dream come true.

Tomorrow, my Beautiful Big Cats, the Kougar will be blogging on Title Magic ~
Tangerine Magic is the title, and moi will presenting for the first time, a final edit excerpt from her OtherWorld stallion shifter adventure (erotic romance) novella, Tangerine Carnal Dreams ~ coming from Aspen Mountain Press.

Kisses to Jimi and all those with cute smiles, from the Kougar...

11:11 ~ When a Good Angel Falls

Congratulate me, Big Cats, the Kougar has just finished her first full edit for When a Good Angel Falls ~ BookStrand Publishing ~ technically, on the day requested. However, moi is certain, 11:11 am was meant instead of 11:11 pm.
Meow-eerily and tail-tingly, there it was ~ 11:11 PM ~ as yours truly was about to hit the send button. For all those Kool Kats in the mystic 2012 know, this is a time and a number which will live in infamy ~ and is featured in moi's futuristic fantasy about December 21, 2012, the end date of the Mayan calendar.

In doubt, Big Kitties, just try Googling 11:11, and you could find all sorts of amazingly profound meanings and interpretations. And synchronicities...

Think 'strange universe' synchronicities. The Kougar gives you as evidence this e-mail sent to George Knapp when he hosted Coast-to-Coast am.

6/28/2008 at 10.45 PM

>Hi George, this was so synchronistic, I had to e-mail. I'm working on
my edits for When a Good Angel Falls, contracted by BookStrand
Publishing. The heroine's name is Sedona. So when I heard your
guests talking about being in Sedona, that hit home. Then when 2012
came up from one of the callers, that really hit home, since this novel is
a 2012 futuristic romance, that takes place during December 21, 2012.
Then, the socks about came off, when one of the callers said they were
of Mayan heritage, and talked about the endtimes, which is also
focused on during the story.
>No, it's not the first time this kind of synchronicity has occurred, but it's
still tingly cool.
>Smiles, Savanna Kougar ~ pen name

AND! The Kougaress gives another 'strange synchronicity' while she lovingly paw-penned her revisions. This site was featured in the Coast-to-Coast news section on Monday, June 30, 2008. From whence the above pic comes from ~ not to mention moi's heroine's name is Sedona.


Monday, June 30, 2008Ancient crashed UFO claimed to be from dinosaur age, 150 million years ago (This article also appears on AmericanChronicle.com.)
By Steve Hammons
News released today about a secret U.S. Government project to analyze an allegedly extraterrestrial craft has a unique twist.
This craft did not crash in 1947 in Roswell, New Mexico.
According to the anonymous sources, it crashed approximately 150 million years ago during the age of the dinosaurs.

Eleven eleven kisses from the Kougar...
