Have had relatives here for the long weekend -- looking forward to things going back to "normal" tomorrow.

Is it really the last third of May? I'm not sure where this month has gone, let alone this year -- June puts us halfway through!

I guess I'd better get working on my May newsletter...

I'm pretty tired tonight, so that's going to be it for the Monday post this week. Hopefully I'll get back into the swing of things and get more posts out this week than I have been the last couple.

Congrats to Michele, who won a print copy of Don't Ask, Don't Tell.

And thank you to everyone who came by, who visited any of the participating blogs.

If you haven't had a chance to yet, you can still go here to get the list of participating authors and links to their blogs.

I'm one of many taking part in the Hop Against Homophobia.

I'd like to make this a positive post, so I want to talk about how glad I am that in the country I live in same sex marriage is legal. I live in a city where two woman can hold hands as they walk through the Tulip Festival, and it isn't a big deal. Where a man can fly home and kiss the man in the airport who's been waiting for him to arrive, and it isn't a big deal. My wish is for same sex partners to be unremarkable in all countries of the world -- where an international day against homophobia simply isn't necessary. The sex of who we love should not matter to anyone, it should not make a difference to anyone.

We can spend our energy on hate, or we can spend our energy on love. I have the best job in the world where I get to write about love every single day.

The prize I'm offering as a part of the hop against homophobia is a print copy of Don't Ask, Don't Tell, chronologically the first Jarheads book. To enter, send me an email at seanmichaelwrites @ gmail . com (no spaces) with 'No to Homophobia' in the subject line by May 20th and I'll randomly choose a winner on May 21.

And in the same vein, three of the Jarheads stories that I've written with proceeds going to charity are now available as free reads: Ding Dong Bell, Mentor, and Homecoming.

Check the hop site out to get links to all the other participating authors.

Talking werewolves on the Rainbow Studio blog.

Thing 2
Seeing tulips at the Tulip Festival

Had a great week with batortuga, boy did it go fast.

Now it's time to get back to work.

I have a couple different werewolf stories going at the moment. Gotta love the howlers.

The Like it Or Not anthology was moved to a June release date. I'll update when I know when it's coming out. My story in that is Obedience Classes.

I have the Rainbow Studio blog tomorrow and have no idea what I'm going to do with it... hopefully something will come to mind!

Okay, it's a hot day here today -- like summer is really trying to push its way in -- and its just screaming for a beer, so I shall listen and have one.

Congrats to Jennifer P., winner of a copy of Heaven Sent, a Hammer story (which is out on Wednesday!)

The rest of Friday and Saturday managed to get away from me, but here's Friday's Club Fantasy Chapter 16.
