grasping at straws

I have to admit, I'm drawing a blank on a blog topic for today. I don't even have anything interesting to report from my every day life...which we all know is usually soooo exciting LOL...because I've mostly been napping. I swear, every time I turn around, I'm nodding off again. No doubt due to these pills I'm taking for the sinus infection. The doctor & pharmacist both warned me they might make me drowsy, & I guess they weren't kidding. :-p

I'm really enjoying the discussing on chick lit, erotica, & your reading preferences, tho. What fun! Back before they even came out with the Blaze line, I used to think "the hotter, the better." I've never been a big fan of low-level sexual tension between the hero & heroine or the types of stories where they only hold hands & kiss, then shut the door on anything else. But the hotter things have become over the years, I have to admit that I'm starting to lean back in the other direction. Oh, I still like strong, intense sexual tension. Absolutely. And I like a nice, hot love scene. I read Brava & Blaze & that sort of thing. But I've also read a few that, in my opinion, went just a little too far outside my comfort zone.

I guess since I have no plans to change the way I write any time in the near future, it's nice to know you won't be disappointed if I don't jump on the erotica bandwagon & just keep writing my semi-hot Desires. :-D

I also don't have any more neat questions to pose at the moment, so I'll just ask you this: What are you reading right now? Anything really good that you'd like to recommend?

I'm still working on No Escape by Heather Lowell & Chill of Fear by Kay Hooper. What can I say? I've been a slow reader lately. :-p But I am thinking about digging out some "theme" reads for St. Patrick's Day. Something Irish or Scottish (hey, close enough!) or with some neat, mystical tone.

How about you?
