Sasha White

My Mom always tells me what a “handful” I was as a kid. As a teenager, we fought a bit, but I always knew my Mom loved me, and when I graduated high school at 17, I left home. NOT because of my parents. We didn’t fight that much, I moved out because we lived in small town Saskatchewan and I wanted to move to a big city.

Yet, moving out, and far from my parents, was the best thing that ever could’ve happened to my relationship with my Mother. Because I was so lonely when I first moved out, yet determined to stay on my own, I called home often. Two, sometimes three times a week I’d call home and ask advice from my Mom and tell her how things were going. That first year away from home was when SHE went from being my mom, to my Best Friend.

She taught me to always look out for number one, because no one was going to do it for me, and that I could do anything I wanted, and be a success as long as I wanted it enough. When I went back to college, she supported me, when I quit college after the first year to bartend, she supported me. When I said I wanted to travel the world, alone with only a backpack, she supported me. Not to say she didn’t call me crazy a few times…but she always supported my choices.

Now, I try to be there for her the way she was there for me. She’s a great Mother, a talented artisan, and my best friend.

Happy Mothers Day to all of you that love and support your kids. It is a precious gift that they will always hold dear.

PS: Any Mom’s that want a chance to win a copy of Gypsy Heart slip your name into the comment area and I’ll give one away later tonite!

For those of you that read here fairly regularly you know I try to have some sort of “Plan” for my writing career. I’m happy, oh so happy, to tell you that it’s looking like y’all might be getting a pretty steady stream of HOT stuff from me. :D

Remember that sci-fi short story I was working on a while back…I posted a teaser cuz I wasn’t sure if I was being sci-fi enough? Well, it was supposed to be for an anthology due out in November 05. I spent some time chatting with my editor from AQP tonight, and we’ve decided that ABDUCTION will now be released in JULY and I’ll do sequel to it for the anthology due out in November!

pssst. Be sure to click on the link, and check out the cover and short blurb.

I’m so excited…I won’t tease you all with my plans for the sequel yet, but let me say this. It’s going to be out of this world!:hehe:

Also Coming Soon are The Devil Insde from LSB sometime this month, and MEANDROSfrom AQP on June 6th!

Blog Stuff

So, I’ve been thinking a lot in the last month or two about my newsletter and how to improve it. (have some ideas ;) ) I even asked my current subscribers what they’d like to see more of when I sent it out yesterday.

One of the subscribers, Jaynie, emailed me back with some suggestions. I followed the link on her email…and found this post on Author websites. I thought “HEy! Perfect timing!” and said please check out MY website….This is what she ( and others) had to say. I think there are some great points, but I’d love to hear what YOU all have to say.

What do you like/don’t like about my blog? About my website?:rolleyes: Do you surf the site? :satisfied: Or just read the blog? Have you read the story excerpts? Are you intrigued about any of my stories because of what you read here?:) Purchased any of my stories because of what you see on here? :hehe: Swear you’ll never read any of my stories because of what you see here? Then again, if you hated what you saw here before, you’re probably not here reading this are you? :P

Writer Stuff
Suzanne gave me a great quote on MEANDROS, my June 6th release from AQP. And she DID read the story. I know this cuz I’ve had her read my stuff before and had her tell me what needs to be worked on. I know she doesn’t say things she doesn’t mean, which makes this quote mean a lot to me personally.

“Count on Sasha White to deliver first-rate blistering passion and tug on your heart strings at the same time. Meandros is soul-grabbing, richly evocative, and unforgettable! A true keeper!”
Suzanne McMinn, author of The Beast Within.

:hehe:

I found this article via Grace and just could NOT keep it to myself.:P

Why? Because most men say a good Blowjob is Heaven.

Wisewoman, the author of the article says this;
“One of the most honoring and sexy ways a man can be pleasured is when a woman adores his cock. I think a cock represents about 80% of his ego , so if you want to make your man smile from his soul; you need to completely and thoroughly ADORE his cock. One of the BEST ways to do this is to suck it for him. And I don’t mean just lightly lick it, I mean take it in your hand, devour it, lick it hard, suck it hard and feel it down your throat.”

Another thing that I absolutely loved was the tip #1:
“Grab his cock hard and suck it hard. Let him tell you if it’s too hard. Don’t be afraid you will hurt him. Have you ever seen a man jack off??? You think he’s going to seriously hurt himself. LOL. He yanks that thing and pulls it so hard, you think he is going to pull it off!!! “:laugh:

Oral sex used to be a big No-No in romance novels. With the Erotic Romance boom happening, oral sex has actually become common in stories. I find that sorta funny since Erotic Romances are targetted for, and mostly read by, women. And most women won’t admit that they enjoy giving a man a BJ.

Does reading a well written oral sex scene do anything for you? If it does…is it the act that you enjoy reading about? or the emotion that is felt by the characters during the act?

I guess that question can be asked about any sex act in a novel not just oral sex.

Click on the link below to read an excerpt from one of my short stories that contains oral sex. Is it the sex act that get’s and keeps your attention and interest…or the emotion and thoughts of the character?

Steph would be proud of me. Why? The last 2 stories that I’ve worked on,I’ve started backwards…or out of order. Sometiemsd it’s hard to get started. It’s that Blank page thing. It can be pretty intimidating. So I just writer and tellmyself it’s only the FIRST DRAFT. Then, after I have a couple of pages I always go back and fix it up. Only the last two times, I haven;t just fixed it up, I’ve switched it around so that the stories start with ACTION.

IN other news…I’m working on my Newsletter RIGHT NOW. Well, after this post…:D. It’ll have an exclusive excerpt fro my subscribers and some other wonderful playful bits. One of the new things up on the website this month is a very personal Interview with Celia Stuart. Look for some diiferent and unique interviwes in the future.

Also on the TREATS page is a sneek Peak at MEANDROS, to be released on June 6th.

Good News. Amazon only has 2 copies of Sex IN the Office left!! It’sd selling good and getting good reader reviews. So pick it up soon if you’re interested in how Katie and Joe’s story gets started. And if you’ve already read it…feel free to write a “Reader Review” for them :D

OK. have to do Newsletter, and gym time willbe late today because I meet with the personal trainer this afternoon. I’ll let you knwo how it goes. ;)

First…hop on over to 2 Hot Chiks and check out the post on Love. :)

I went to the gym this morning!! :hehe:
And while I was there I made an appointment to see one of their personal trainers tomorrow. The thing that caught my eye was this guy has a heavy Martial Arts background, and that’s what I want. I know I have the knowledge on how to lose weight and get back in shape, but I also know I tend to lose momentum and motivation after a couple of weeks because I find the gym boring.

I miss martail arts.

So, I talked to him and we’re going to come up with a plan. It’s expensive for a personal trainer, but one of the reasons I didn’t join a dojo when I moved here five years ago was because I couldn’t find a place I felt comfortable training. I admit it…I’ve been very spoiled when it comes to my martial arts training. I’ve always had top instructors, and I’ve been somehwhat of a teacher’s pet with them because I go into things so wholeheartedly. If I need to pay someone to give me the attention I want to get the results I want, then I’m willing to do that. It’s not so much that I can afford to toss money around, but it’s a choice, and I’ve decided my health is worth the investment.

In other news…I have to write today…My newsletter is late going out, but I’m holding it back because every newsletter gets a special private excerpt or story, and this month…I’m going to send out an unedited excerpt of WILLING, my WIP. Of course, that means I have to write it first!:hehe: So, in the spirit of writign down my goals and sticking to them . . .my goal is to get the newsletter, WITH a special excerpt, out by tomorrow morning.:P

If you want a sneak peek at WILLING, be sure to sign up for the newsletter.

As I sit here eating an ‘Oh Henry’ bar for breakfast I debate with myself if this is a good idea. Not the chocolate bar, I know that’s NOT a good idea, but the plan I’ve come up with.

You see. I’ve decided I need to be accountable to someone….and that someone is me. And one way to make myself accountable is to write down what I do, because then I can’t lie, to you, or myself.

What am I babbling about? I’m talkign about getting healthy again. I’m going to post my continuing progress/battle with weight loss on here. This is my SECRET THOUGHTS forum, and I need to do this. I feel like I need support and encouragement in my efforts, but I don’t want the support to turn to nagging as it often does when friends and family try to help.

I feel okay about it on here because I think you all will understand just how hard a battle with unhealthy weight/habits can be. I know you won’t belittle my efforts or make light of the fact that it IS a struggle. I also think that this is something that a lot of you will understand.

Over the last 5 years I’ve gained 55 lbs, then succesfully lost 40, then gained 50 again. I now weight 245 lbs.

It’s shocking to me that I’ve let myself go this far. I used to LOVE working-out. Martial Arts was my life for 9 years. I trained 6 /7 days a week, I competed at national and international levels, I was a Coach and an instructor. And since I’ve left that lifestyle, my health has gone down hill. I’ve realised that even if I don’t want to compete or “train”, that I do need to make working out an everyday thing. I’m not sure if my age (turning 35) has something to do with the fact that I’ve continued to gain even though I am active and workout on a semi-regular (2-3 days a week)basis.

So, I’m going to start posting on here my thoughts and battles, and (hopefully) triumphs so that I can stay focused on my goal. Don’t worry, it’s not going to take over my blog., it’s just going to be something I do to help hold myself accountable.

If some of you want to join me, as I get serious, I’d love the company.

What I’m going to do is similar to a Book-In-A-Month challenge, but with wieght loss.;)

My goal for the month of May is to lose 8 lbs. That’s a healthy weight loss goal as I want to loose fat, not muscle. This will require me going to the gym 5 days a week, and cutting high sugar content food from my diet. I will only allow myself three glasses/cans of Diet pop a day. ( I dont drink coffe or juice)

I’m done the “Oh Henry” bar, so I’m starting NOW. :rolleyes:
