Greetings!
My name is Mathilde Watson and today Lexi has been kind
enough to let me take over this little corner of her blog. Thanks, Lexi!
All week I’ve been hopping around, talking
about my newest release, SHRUG IT OFF.
At each stop along my way I will randomly
select one commenter to receive a free ebook from my backlist, AND, at the end
of the tour, everybody who leaves a comment at any of my stops will be entered
for a chance to win one of two $10 gift cards to All Romance Ebooks! And, of
course, that includes this stop! Just be sure to include your email address in
you comment so you can be contacted if your name is selected.
For my first stop I visited with my good
friend Angel Martinez and I introduced Stephen and his constant companions. You
can check that out here: http://angelmartinezauthor.weebly.com/1/post/2014/02/the-first-stop-shrug-it-off-blog-tour.html
On my second stop I introduced Connor at
Iyana’s Rainbow: http://iyanajenna.blogspot.com/2014/03/in-spotlight-mathilde-watson.html
On my
third stop I spent some time with Cherie in the writing cave, talking about
devils and angels: http://talesfromthewritingcave.blogspot.com/2014/03/shrug-it-off-blog-tour.html
And I got
to play with Freddy MacKay at stop number four where I talked about CATS!: http://freddysstereograph.weebly.com/2/post/2014/03/shrug-it-off-bloug-tour-day-4.html
Today, I’m going to talk a little bit about
me, but first, let me tell you about SHRUG IT OFF!

BLURB:
For Stephen, dating is more than a challenge, it’s a
nightmare!
All he wants is a man he can talk to, someone he can laugh
with and be himself around. What he’s got instead is an incessant running
commentary on everyone and everything. The meddling guides posted on his
shoulders each have their own ideas of what Stephen should be looking for. From
the right he’s urged to find a man like himself: confident, successful, and
upwardly mobile. The little devil on his other shoulder is only interested in a
guy’s face and what he’s got below the waist.
The two can never agree on anything—until Stephen meets
Connor—and then things get really interesting…

And now I’d like to introduce myself…
My name is Mathilde Watson and I grew up in Eastern North
Carolina, where I have lived the majority of my life. I was raised on a farm
where the cows, horses, goats, sheep, chickens, geese, peacocks and turkeys
were pets rather than livestock. It was a great way to grow up. I was kid
number five out of six, so the work got divided up nicely.
I now live in Indiana where it is FREEZING. I’m not really
sure how that happened…
One of my favorite things to do as a kid was read. Probably
no surprise there! I read everything and I loved most of it. I love how it
feels to watch a movie in my mind directed by words on a page.
I became a writer because I wanted to see if I could reverse
the process—take the movies my own mind conjures up and put them down in words.
And it seems to have worked out pretty well for me. J
I stumbled upon gay romance entirely by accident.
I bought the Jason Bourne trilogy for my kindle and I went
browsing through the list of titles frequently purchased by people who bought
those book—and one of the books in that list was ZERO AT THE BONE by Jane
Seville.
I got it, read it, loved it and went looking for more. Since
then I haven’t looked back.
My first attempt at writing a gay romance of my own was a
contemporary May/December romance. I have since tried my hand at paranormal
shifter stories, military stories, and a few bittersweet short stories.

My next big adventure is a SciFi story that will be included
in an upcoming Mischief Corner Anthology, NOT IN THE STARS!
And that’s me in a nutshell!
If anyone has any burning questions about me or my writing,
now is the time to ask! Remember, everyone who leaves a comment of any
kind—question or not—will be entered in the drawings to win prizes!
Thanks for stopping by!

Put this book on my wishlist. Do you plan on writing any more paranormal books to continue the ones you've already written? Thank you for the giveaway.

Oh, this one sounds like a lot of fun! And now you have me adding Zero to the Bone to the list as well because I love reading the stories that seduced romance writers 'to the dark side', with nary a glance back over their shoulder. :-) Do you have a Twitter account? I'd like to follow you!
ReplyDeleteI love the premise!
