For those of you who don’t follow me on Facebook, I periodically ask questions of my friends, on my timeline, about all kinds of things. After having a conversation with my daughter about the different words for breasts, I decided to ask my Facebook crew how they weigh in on the terms. Terms ran the gambit from breast, boobs, tits, boobies, mammaries, the girls, to milk jugs, twin peaks, bazookas, knockers, fun bags, sweet tomatoes, and many others. Continue reading

What Women Really Want in a Man
Here’s what I’ve learned from interacting with my readers:
- We want a man who is strong with a sensitive side.
- Romance us. We want a man who will surprise us now and again.
- We crave empathy and understanding. Put away all your tools for fixing things and just hold us and tell us it’ll be okay.
- Most of us enjoy a door held open for us and chair pulled out.
- We love you taking control in the bedroom but not in the rest of our lives.
- We never tire of compliments. Telling us we look beautiful never gets old.
- We crave your interest in us. Take the time to get know us. Ask questions.
- We want a man who is confident enough to share his flaws. We aren’t looking for perfection.
- Loyalty and honesty tops the traits most women look for in a man.
- We want a man that takes his time to learn our body. His excitement steams from bringing us to intense orgasms.

Tell us a bit about yourself and what you’re currently working on or promoting.
Hi Blakely! Thank you so much for having me on your blog today 🙂 I’m a British gal who grew up in Portugal. I starting writing full time in 2011 and have since published eight books. My latest, which will be out in November is a contemporary romance called And Then There Was You. It’s about infidelity, passion, love. I’ve just had feedback from a beta reader who told me it made her laugh and cry. She loved it! Phew 🙂 Continue reading
My 5 Star Review of Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover
Ugly love by Colleen Hoover is by far my favorite book this year. I’ve read other books I really enjoyed like Wonder by R.J. Palacio or ones I didn’t care for like Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn (I know I’m in the minority with that one). Why did Ugly Love speak to me so clearly? I’ll tell you. Continue reading
Blakely’s Friday Interview with Porcupine Strongwill
Please give a warm welcome to Porcupine Strongwill, author of Forgotten Things to Say.
Tell us a bit about yourself and what you’re currently working on or promoting.
I’m Porcupine Strongwill from Perla del Mar de Oriente. I’ve recently published my first book called Forgotten Things to Say, a collection of poetry reflecting the journey of a young heart trying to forget a past love. It’s available for 2.99 USD on Amazon and FREE on KNOLL, so it would be totally awesome if you could check that out. Continue reading
Nanowrimo and Fitness Challenge
November is the month for me to get off my ass, literally and figuratively. Although I’m not entering any of the Nanowrimo contests and I’ve already started my novel, I am using the daily discipline to help me finish Blue Persuasion this month. That’s right, you heard it here first! Continue reading
Blakely’s Friday Interview with PJ Fiala
Please give a warm welcome to PJ Fiala, author of Second Chances & Dog Days of Summer. Thank you for taking the time to visit with us. It’s been my pleasure to get to know you better.
What project are you currently working on?
I am currently engrossed in the Rolling Thunder Series. Dog Days of Summer, the first book just came out August 1st. Rydin the Storm Out, is the second book in the series and is just now coming back from beta readers. The third and fourth books are both in varying levels of completion. Continue reading
Fellatio, On and Off the Page
I am a huge fan of blowjobs, which is really a silly name for taking a wonderful cock into your mouth for play. There is no blowing and there is no work involved. So who came up with that name? I much prefer suckling delight or fellatio.
I enjoy the practice of it, writing about it, and reading stories that contain the act. However, I have a few friends that don’t care for reading about blowjobs and avoid engaging in them at all costs. In both cases, they had BAD past experiences. Continue reading
Blakely’s Friday Interview with Jen Cousineau
Please give a warm welcome to Jen Cousineau, author of A Deadly Bet & Licentious.
Who or what inspires you?
To My Loves, the inspiration is my daughters. In fact they are playing a major role in the book. Whereas Licentious was inspired by two songs: Monster by Rhianna and Eminem, and Human by Christina Perri. It all just depends, as each book the inspiration has been different. But I will tell you that while I’m writing, music plays a huge inspirational role for me.
Do you have an agent and/or publisher or are you self-published? If self-published, do you use a professional editor? If traditionally published, who is your publisher?
I’m self-published, but I do use a professional editor – Rogena Mitchell-Jones. I absolutely love her! I’m horrible with punctuation and sometimes being too detailed. She’s amazing at reigning me in a bit. Continue reading
