Friday Shout Out! The Shape of Love

How the story came about (Misty’s version!)Victoria and I were sitting around in the backyard and talking about anthology projects. We agreed the shapeshifting had seen many werewolves and cougars, even jaguars, but where were the poor housecats? We got a kick out of thinking up domestic animals as shape shifters and our anthology was born. We needed a third person and thought of Vicky, who really stepped up to the challenge when she was given a whopping two weeks to come up with a story and write it. And nary a duck or potbellied pig in sight. Believe me when I say that is some accomplishment.* * * * *

Vicky Burkholder

As her alter-ego, Vicky has multiple homes all over the universe. She looks human - for the most part - but when she starts writing about characters being able to move things or flicking fire from their fingertips, or changing the course of rivers, people tend to get a little freaked out. She found the one guy out there in the universe who loves her for who she is. They’ve been together forever and raised four wonderful (now) adults and are owned by a cat, Pixel. She has served on the board of directors for several RWA chapters and currently serves on the PASIC Board. Her career includes work as a technical writer/editor, a stringer for the local newspaper, and an editor and copy editor for four e-publishers. At various times in her life, she has been a teacher, a secretary, a short-order cook, a computer specialist, a DJ, and a librarian.

Who’s Your Alpha

While growing up, Sunny Clark never felt like she fit in with the others in her school. She was always a little overweight, always a little too independent, and a shape shifter. She was also in love with her neighbor, David Maxwell. But he was one of the in crowd, and she wasn’t. When she returns for a reunion, many things have changed, but not her feelings for David. Unfortunately, the alpha female doesn’t want Sunny around and sets out to make sure she knows it. But Sunny is no longer the shy little puppy she once was and the pecking order is about to change.

Misty Simon

Misty Simon loves to tell stories, especially the ones she types on her computer. Sharing her quirky sense of humor through her full-figured heroines is a dream come true and she hopes readers take something away with them from every story. Misty recently relocated to Central Pennsylvania with her husband Daniel and her daughter Noelle, where she is currently finishing her next book while fixing up their new (to them) house from the 1820s.

Out of the Storm

Sarah James’ quiet, almost solitary life changes when she rescues a wet, bedraggled cat out of a raging storm. But he always seems to disappear without explanation, only to return at the oddest times. Is he really lost, or does he have a secret life outside her apartment walls?

Trenton Cutlass has been forced to roam ever since he was cursed into the form of a fat, tabby cat after dusk. No one has ever taken him in…until Sarah. Suddenly, breaking the curse is more important than ever, or he’ll have to abandon the lovely Sarah forever.

Victoria Smith

Victoria Smith wrote her first romance at the age of nine and hid the story from her brothers to avoid being teased. Her mother recently found and gave her the folded notebook paper and, if you’re lucky, one day she’ll reveal who the hero in that story was. Now, she writes dark paranormal, romantic suspense and women’s fiction - always with a happy, or at least satisfying, ending. Visit her blog at http://vickismith.blogspot.com/

Sheltered

Drugged and lost after escaping a deranged kidnapper, Dane Masters is stuck as his hereditary alternate form. While wandering the streets on four wobbly paws, he’s taken in by vet tech Izzy Burnett. Once he has regained his strength, and his memories, Dane realizes he has found his predestined mate. But will he have time to convince Izzy before the kidnapper turns killer?
