Introducing Manic Monday & other blog changes ahead

If the title “Manic Monday” doesn’t have you tapping your toes and humming a certain Bangles hit, you must not be my age. I remember lying on the floor in my room, listening to that song repeatedly as I tried to write down all the lyrics. Of course, in sixth grade,...

#MySexySaturday: Their Sexy Talk

Since dialogue is my favorite, this week’s My Sexy Saturday theme is right up my alley! I’ll share a snippet from my new release, BREAKING ALL THE RULES. In this scene, Van and Allyson are having dinner together for the first time. (She won’t call it a date because...

Who’s your captain?

I’m over at Just Contemporary Romance today, talking about my favorite Star Trek Captain. Since I’ve been writing baseball-playing heroes, it’s been fun to geek out a little with Donovan Marshall, the Klingon-speaking hero of BREAKING ALL THE RULES. In my searches, I discovered this fun T-shirt from Star...

#MySexySaturday: Sexy Me Up

Every time I think I’m going to start posting here more regularly, something happens to throw me back off track. I get busy writing…working…doing sinks full of dirty dishes. Even these My Sexy Saturday posts don’t happen as regularly as I’d like. This week’s theme is “Sexy Me Up,”...

Seven things you don’t know about me

The “Seven Things You Don’t Know About Me” post has been going around Facebook lately — and I thought it’d make a great post for the ol’ neglected blog. (I’m trying to blog more regularly … really I am.) Here they are, in no particular order. 1. After reading...

#MySexySaturday: My sexy addiction

With BREAKING ALL THE RULES coming out in a few short weeks,  I should probably be giving you a teaser from it. But when I saw this week’s My Sexy Saturday theme was “My Sexy Addiction,” I couldn’t resist. I simply had to pick a scene starring Mike James....

My Sexy Saturday — Valentine’s special

It’s Saturday — and you know what that means. Time for the My Sexy Saturday blog hop. I’m in a bit better headspace to pick a sexy scene now than I was a few hours ago. Then, I’d just discovered that when you Google “Arlene Hittle Author,” the first...

#CoverReveal — Breaking All the Rules

I posted my new cover on my Facebook author page already, but it hit me I should share it here on the blog. Yes, I realize I’ve been neglecting the blog despite what I learned at RWA Nationals last summer. I’m trying to get better — promise. Things are...

My Sexy Saturday: You’re so sexy

Long time no blog, eh? So much for those weekly posts I was supposed to be writing after coming home from San Antonio in July. January has been a busy month. I started a new job in a new city. I’m still looking for a permanent place to live....

BRIDE got a book tour for Christmas

Okay, not exactly. I arranged a swap with Paige Rion of Worldwind Virtual Book Tours. I edit a manuscript for her and she organizes a book tour for me. Work on both is ongoing. BLIND DATE BRIDE’s book tour starts on Dec. 30. You can get the full schedule...
