Hi Kiix,

I love how your brain works. My first instinct was to call Azrael a were-vamp, but after what Britta said about him not being a were, he must be a Lycan and Britta is the mother of the nation - she can give birth to a 'full fledged' Lycan by biting a dormant were-vamp. I love that Azrael has now something of his own, but I hope he learns to mind-talk to the brothers while transformed. Personally biting and thus forcing the brothers into action absolutely strikes me as something Britta would do and to me it fells in line with everything the brothers had to endure. Honestly, when did they truly have a chance to decide for themselves - I don't even consider Claudius' advise about learning to live as a red in the covens (Cake) as thus.

Marcus, I guess, will have to cope with the situation and have to have an eye on the white Russian. Even if the Lycan-brother isn't Sex, Vlad seems to be thrilled by it and I honestly would think less about him if he didn't. Fortunately San Kyu is with Az-wolf. He strikes me as most trustable and to von D. it's surely a pain that their beloved little Emperor is again in a place they can't follow him. I would absolutely love it if Honeybee fought his way straight through the North-pack-lair and demanded an explanation about why the brothers don't find a way to come home. Well, back to Marcus. Is there a way to establish the male Imperials within the Northerns? If not, wouldn't that mean Az-wolf has to do a lot of domination in the new pack? If I was Marcus and Az it would be hard for me to tolerate the fact alone but even harder if it wasn't a pod-member. And if they can take a vital part around the high-alpha, does that mean Vlad has to dominate Bruce? I mean if that's the Lycan-way if you are not bound on killing every opponent off, than the Imperials will have their paws full. Poor Bruce.

One last question. Has Az-wolf the ability to unfold and use his wings? If so, maybe he is a Chimera - a creature no Blood can call its own.

So much to your questions.

... damn it, now I have that Yoko Kanno song 'Run, Wolf Warrior, Run' in my head (http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/y/yoko_kanno/run_wolf_warrior_run.html)

Hi Kiix,

thanks to the weather gods, that made work unreachable with tons of snow, storms and rain, I have a little down time and promptly stumbled upon a song, that made me think of Claudius and Sex. I've never heard it before but now I love it. It's 'Good enough' from Evanescence and you can find the lyrics here:

Hugs to you,

Kira's the queen of knee-jerk reactions so I'm hoping this blows over, but I'm seconding the idea of Lulu.com. Another writer I follow publishes through them (I don't know the financial side of it) and the biggest plus IMO is that the books can be sold on Amazon. ^__^

Sorry about the dissapointment. It might have been for the best. Now you can find a better company.

So I totally didn't know that you have been explaining your evil deeds (Killing Haley etc) here. I knew you had this, but I thought it was a guide to writing. If I had known you were going to off Claudius in the last book I would have given you a piece of my mind... (funny expression, no?)

That is very bad news!!!
Why don't you punish yourself and sell on e-bay. You would have lots of buyers me being one of them. It is bad that they are closing but you know now that people like your work. If one company said yes then another will! You just need to find them. Sends you lots of luck. They will come to you.

Hey kiix. I'm sorry to hear about Yaoi House and I'm really sorry to hear Cake won't be getting published at this time. While I'm positive you were looking forward to this, just look at is on the other side of the coin: Cake has been proofed and revised and now falls in line with the sequel books so that when you are ready to give this publishing gig another go, you've got a huge part of the process done. While I don't know how receptive this publishing house will be, I buy books from them all the time and it can't hurt to check them out. They are http://torquerepress.com and I figure if they have ebooks containing twincest, it can't hurt to have them check out The Pod. They have both ebooks and print so...go for it. Hopefully soon we will see your name on a printed book and regardless of where the future may lead you, I will always read what you've got. Take care -L

Hi Kiix,

don't be too sad. Maybe you can use the revised version and create a PDF-book, that you get payed for by us readers. While it's not a book, it might be a start. The artists, that worked on Cake for Kira might even assist you and I'd gladly help you with arranging the print picture (I have absolutely no idea what's this called in English.)

Whatsoever, I love your writing and wish you luck in finding another publisher,
K
