We all know the Authoress, has been busy editing, the unfortunate thing for us, is that it has been for the other authoress Madam CC. With one novel submitted and another having first round edits completed, our Authoress has decided to spend some time writing each day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This has a lot to do with one of RWAus authors posting a blog each week ‘&lt;a href="http://paularoe.wordpress.com/2010/01/30/a-novel-in-3-months-week-1-preparation/"&gt;A Novel in 3 Months&lt;/a&gt;’.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We all know the Authoress can’t pass up a challenge, (although this is not really a challenge, more like a helping hand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It also means that Lexie and I, James, are finally going to get our story told. We are in the lucky position of only have a few pages written, hence making this exercise more suited to our story. If you check out &lt;a href="http://sandiehudsonromanceauthor.wordpress.com/"&gt;The Novels Blog&lt;/a&gt;, you will find information there related to our story. I do believe the Authoress is going to use this site again as a back story site for her novels.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watch out for my interview with the Authoress in the next couple of weeks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;"&gt;James&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3190505091537305273-6519832789911105662?l=sandiehudson-writer.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sandiehudson-writer.blogspot.com/feeds/6519832789911105662/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3190505091537305273&amp;postID=6519832789911105662&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3190505091537305273/posts/default/6519832789911105662'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3190505091537305273/posts/default/6519832789911105662'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sandiehudson-writer.blogspot.com/2010/01/james-darcy-having-her-best-friends.html' title='James Darcy ~ Having Her Best Friend&apos;s Baby'/><author><name>Sandie Hudson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06362712104363641666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_j2MkjjfZmhw/SpyMJeeCd1I/AAAAAAAABhg/8kdP6R2f9Ok/S220/Sandie1.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_j2MkjjfZmhw/S2Zz-r5q9JI/AAAAAAAABuw/_jZnBt5YiAM/s72-c/23115_antonio_banderas_2%5B1%5D.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190505091537305273.post-6909694505456971632</id><published>2009-10-30T19:10:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-30T19:18:23.170-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Diary of a Heroine'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Joe'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Brad Pitt'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='characters'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='writing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='heroines'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='heroes'/><title type='text'>Trouble is a Brewing</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_j2MkjjfZmhw/Suuc3JLcMFI/AAAAAAAABoI/2GRhVyPthUo/s1600-h/brad_pitt-twin-book.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 150px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5398581049504313426" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_j2MkjjfZmhw/Suuc3JLcMFI/AAAAAAAABoI/2GRhVyPthUo/s200/brad_pitt-twin-book.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;ROTFLOAO that is what we guys are doing. A few weeks back the girls gave us such a hard time about picking on the Authoress, now it seems they have had enough as well, visit their site &lt;a href="http://sandiehudsonromancing.blogspot.com/"&gt;Diary of a Heroine&lt;/a&gt;. Personally, I don’t think it will make much difference, when the Authoress is ready to finish our stories she will. But, we have given our support to the girls, who knows, maybe being women they’ll have better luck than we did.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;I have to admit, I want to see Sky’s and mine story move along a bit faster. After all 450 words is not a lot to go on, I have this uneasy feeling that there are some big events that are going to impact on our lives. I’m not sure that they will be good events either. Well, there’s not a lot I can do about it until the Authoress fills in a bit more of the white space on the page.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;See you when we have more news.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Joe &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3190505091537305273-6909694505456971632?l=sandiehudson-writer.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sandiehudson-writer.blogspot.com/feeds/6909694505456971632/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3190505091537305273&amp;postID=6909694505456971632&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3190505091537305273/posts/default/6909694505456971632'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3190505091537305273/posts/default/6909694505456971632'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sandiehudson-writer.blogspot.com/2009/10/trouble-is-brewing.html' title='Trouble is a Brewing'/><author><name>Sandie Hudson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06362712104363641666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_j2MkjjfZmhw/SpyMJeeCd1I/AAAAAAAABhg/8kdP6R2f9Ok/S220/Sandie1.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_j2MkjjfZmhw/Suuc3JLcMFI/AAAAAAAABoI/2GRhVyPthUo/s72-c/brad_pitt-twin-book.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190505091537305273.post-8550214125490843004</id><published>2009-10-03T04:15:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-03T04:53:46.620-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='authors'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='heroines'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='heroes'/><title type='text'>What Does She Mean?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_j2MkjjfZmhw/Sscy5JFbmLI/AAAAAAAABj4/u9Nd8pvz2q8/s1600-h/content_hugh-jackman_gallery_hugh-jackman-01.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 190px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5388331436444719282" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_j2MkjjfZmhw/Sscy5JFbmLI/AAAAAAAABj4/u9Nd8pvz2q8/s200/content_hugh-jackman_gallery_hugh-jackman-01.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;div&gt;It seems our authoress thinks we are anything but real.

I mean there are a few of the boys who have tasted the fruits of their lady friends, while I am yet to get that far.

I'm James Darcy, no relation to Fitzwilliam Darcy by the way, or before you ask. How I ended up here is beyond me, one minute I was minding my own business and the next I'm in some novel because my best friend has decided she wants to have my child.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Now don't get me wrong, I'd love to jump in the sack with Lexie, I mean, she's hot. Very hot, but she is my best friend, she's also my business partner, so it could get a little sticky if I don't mesh with her in the sack. Well in truth she wants to go the artificial insemination road, but I've put my foot down. No way are my boys going to be swimming around in a plastic cup, and I've told her that as well. No, if we are going to have a child together we'll do it the good old fashion way. Is that being chauvinistic? I'm surprised she didn't throw that at me when we spoke last.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Man, she is so sexy when she gets riled up. Gets my blood pumping and I just want to take her to .... Okay better not go that far, she may drop by and read this. Maybe I should leave and have a chat with the other boys, see how they handle their women. Yep, that's what I should do.

How did you come to this position?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_j2MkjjfZmhw/SXfIDysfw2I/AAAAAAAAA8w/qrCSQRATfuc/s1600-h/eric_bana_14.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;R) My Yia-yia (Grandmother) insisted that I obtain my degree in Business Management at university when I left high school, then I started work as a clerk in the family business and worked my way up to CEO.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roman smile lights up his face as her talks about his Grandmother.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#c0c0c0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;S) Your Uncle was by past for you to take the reins, how is your working relationship with him?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;R) My Uncle has never had any ambition other than to live off the family money. His son it seems lives by the same motto.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;He moves in his seat crossing his legs, the change in his manner is that of a man who has little time for those that are happy to sit back and take hand outs. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#c0c0c0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;S) I believe your Grandmother has been unwell lately. How is she doing?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;R) She is making progress with her recovery from hip surgery, we are looking forward to having her return home soon.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;S) By we, do you mean Lucy Hogan your Grandmother's Goddaughter?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;R) Yes, Lucy will be staying with Yia-yia for a few months.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;The lines in his face relax for a moment. His eyes turn a deep chocolate brown. (Hum, interesting)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#c0c0c0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;S) You recently ended your relationship with Diana Rosewell, has Lucy's return anything to do with this?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;R) No!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;Roman moves again in his seat, he does not seem comfortable with this line of questions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#c0c0c0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;S) You are staying at your Grandmother's house home with Lucy?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;R) I am there helping prepare for Yia-yia's return home. Nothing more.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;That answer is slightly defensive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#c0c0c0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;S) You think a lot of your Grandmother?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;R) Yia-Yia raised me from the age of six. She is the only mother I remember and I love her as if she were my natural mother. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;His voice changes to that of respect and love as he talks again of his Grandmother.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#c0c0c0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;S) She took Lucy in after Lucy's parents died. Did you find it hard to have to share your Grandmother with an outsider?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;R) No. I was in university by then, Lucy was an only child and had no other relatives. She was only a child back then, how could I begrudge a child a good home?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;S) But she is a woman now.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;R) Yes.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;He is watching me from behind weary eyes. His body has tensed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#c0c0c0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;S) Are you attracted to her?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;R) I don't find that any of your business. I think we will end this interview here.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;Okay that may have been the wrong questions. He walks from the room, his back ridged. But boy he has a great butt.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#c0c0c0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#c0c0c0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Until next time.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Sandie&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3190505091537305273-950819283904005717?l=sandiehudson-writer.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sandiehudson-writer.blogspot.com/feeds/950819283904005717/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3190505091537305273&amp;postID=950819283904005717&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3190505091537305273/posts/default/950819283904005717'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3190505091537305273/posts/default/950819283904005717'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sandiehudson-writer.blogspot.com/2009/01/interview-with-romanos-makris.html' title='An Interview with Romanos Makris'/><author><name>Sandie Hudson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06362712104363641666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_j2MkjjfZmhw/SpyMJeeCd1I/AAAAAAAABhg/8kdP6R2f9Ok/S220/Sandie1.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_j2MkjjfZmhw/SXfKme1b1uI/AAAAAAAAA84/5x4SoYMtisM/s72-c/eric_bana_10.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190505091537305273.post-8925330372319059116</id><published>2009-01-14T22:08:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-14T23:54:30.344-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='New Hero'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='The Godmother&apos;s Wish'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Romanos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Eric Bana'/><title type='text'>A New Hero 'The Godmother's Wish'</title><content type='html'>Introducing Romanos Makris&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_j2MkjjfZmhw/SW7T5Uazz8I/AAAAAAAAA6Q/4EyKnVWYwso/s1600-h/eric_bana_12.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5291399593894072258" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 238px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 178px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_j2MkjjfZmhw/SW7T5Uazz8I/AAAAAAAAA6Q/4EyKnVWYwso/s320/eric_bana_12.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Roman is a six foot three Australian born Greek.

We have the debonair Colin Firth, rough around the edges Justin Chambers, hunky Keanu Reeves and of course McDreamy himself the sexy Patrick Dempsey. What other inspiration do I need to edit.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To tell the truth one I already have three chapters edited, another about two chapters done, but the last two I'm just starting on.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My hope is that during this editing stage I'll get to know these guys just that little bit better. I get glimpses of them during my first draft but that is all, especially if I've written the whole novel within a month.  Which is what I did with two of these novels. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The one I've been working on today was my NaNo novel from last year. Yeah I finally thought I'd let it sit long enough. Yes it needs some major work to get it into shape, but at least I've started. That is better than the last few days where I've done nothing more than play around with new headers from my other blogs and website go and have a look if you like click &lt;a href="http://www.sandiehudson.com/"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The aim is to edit 9 pages a day so I have all four works finished by the 26th of January 2009. That's when 70 Days of Writing Sweat ends or as we call it SVEN.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Okay I'm off my own hero has just arrived home so I'm going to have a cuppa with him. See you soon.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sandie&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3190505091537305273-4283017162025255175?l=sandiehudson-writer.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sandiehudson-writer.blogspot.com/feeds/4283017162025255175/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3190505091537305273&amp;postID=4283017162025255175&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3190505091537305273/posts/default/4283017162025255175'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3190505091537305273/posts/default/4283017162025255175'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sandiehudson-writer.blogspot.com/2008/11/editing-mode.html' title='Editing Mode'/><author><name>Sandie Hudson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06362712104363641666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_j2MkjjfZmhw/SpyMJeeCd1I/AAAAAAAABhg/8kdP6R2f9Ok/S220/Sandie1.png'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190505091537305273.post-4964874599269035250</id><published>2008-05-07T18:54:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-05-07T18:58:47.575-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='research'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='slide show'/><title type='text'>A Slide of Boys</title><content type='html'>So I thought I would do a slide show of some of the boys I have discovered lately.
