The Marion Kind is oooout!!

Cobblestone Press Quarterly just released my short story, The Marion Kind–AND it’s a free read for you.

Go here to download.

Here’s the blurb:

Marion’s all tied up over Kurt. Why? Because she wanted a little thrill in her small-town life and got it by dating the town bad boy, Kurt. Only it went way beyond a mere thrill in under a week. Now, a year later, she wants to know when they’re going to take it to the next level. She wants it all and she wants it with him. So she asks him to marry her. When he doesn’t react at all, she walks out, realizing that her mother was right…the bad boy isn’t the marrying kind.

But Kurt’s not about to make it that easy for her to leave. He’s had a week to get angry over her stomping off. So what if he has to tie her to the bed to get her to listen to him? He won’t let her avoid him forever, and if this is what it takes to get her attention, so be it. He’d never thought Marion wanted anything other than to burn up the sheets with him, but he’s thinking about it now…and he’s ready to be all tied up over Marion. Until death do them part.

    Hey Crystal,

    I recently had to move from blogspot to word press and I absolutely love my new site. I really like the layout of your site, too. I saw your story in the March issue of CPQ. One of my articles, “Defeating the Bitter Bug: Staying Positive on the Road to Publication” is in that issue as well. :-)

    *Gasp* You’re in Sexy Beast V? I love that series. Now I can’t wait to read it even more now.

    Just wanted to say hey. :-) Enjoy the rest of your weekend. Mind if I snag the “Three things…and flying monkeys” thing from your site? I never seem to get tagged with these things–weird, since I would love to fill one out!

    Warm regards,
    Michelle (www.michellelaurenbooks.wordpress.com)

    Hey, feel free to steal it–I did ;)

    Congrats on your article coming out. That’s awesome!

    I prefer wordpress to blogger, and the fantabulous Croco Designs did this site for me. And my Myspace page. And my business cards. She’s multi-talented, that Croco.
