Hi friends and fam, Today I want to discuss Progression – Book II of The Cohort Trilogy. I want to let you in on a little secret. I didn’t intend to write this book, a sequel. I simply wound up jotting down tons of things while writing a different book. Then readers kept asking what was going to happen, because of the way that Book I closed. So I went back to my notes. As I assembled them I saw that I had a ton of chapters. So I began the process. |

Hi friends and fam, Today I’d like to apologize for not getting to chat with you on last week—got a little busy there, but here we are! Okay, I told you about how much fun the four friends in Book I of The Cohort Trilogy have together. Yet what I didn’t tell you about was the drama. Man, is there disturbance in Absolution! It shakes all the characters up, but isn’t that what happens in real life? And you know I believe art should mirror life. So we have these four friends / four cohorts going merrily along, getting their party on, enjoying life and |

Hi friends and fam, Today I’d like to discuss some of what happens inAbsolution,The Cohort Trilogy-Book I. By now, through my blog, or having read my novel(s) you know who the characters are in the book – Beau and his three women friends, his cohorts. Therefore, I’d like to give you a brief rundown on some of what takes place with them in the book. Since I had, and yet have, friends similar to Beau our main character, I tried to make this trilogy as close to real life as possible. |

Hi friends and fam, Today, in keeping with our theme:The Cohort Trilogy-Book I, Absolution which will soon be re-released with new ISBN numbers, new covers, and updated content I’d like to speak to you about our lead character. Well not about him exactly. I want to introduce Ronni to those of you who haven’t yet met her. This butter-yellow mouthy spirited woman happens to be Beau’s other roommate. Now I must tell you, with Ronni [RON-nee] you will either love her or hate her, there is no in between. |

Hi friends and fam, I must apologize. I’ve been so busy! I wanted to get back to you and tell you a bit more aboutBook IinThe Cohort Trilogy, my super-fast-reading novelAbsolution. Well, here I am. To pick up where we left off, inAbsolution, you get to meet Beau, one of the stars of the show, a buff beautiful gay male. Now he maylooklike he’s got it all together, but there are some other things going on, trust me. However, you’ll have to read the book to find out what those issues are. |

Someone is always asking about my Cohort Trilogy, so I figured I’d tell you a bit about it each week. First of all, the three books in the trilogy are calledAbsolution,Progression, andIniquities. However, let’s speak aboutAbsolution,Book 1for now. In it a reader gets to meet four friends, three women and their gay male roommate Beau [Bo.] Beau and the ladies call themselves cohorts because often they find themselves in untoward situations,together --many of which you the reader will get to see firsthand or hear about through their telling. |

Hi readers, friends and fam, I just wanted to let you know how excited I am to be able to finally offer youIniquities! It'sBook IIIin myCohort Trilogy, and believe me, just like you loved the first two, you're going to feel that way about this one. I don't mean to sound cocky. You all know that's not my way. I'm just saying... I gave this book all I had. I had help too. That I'm happy to report. My gay male friends were more than willing to give me their input. You know, to make the story real. |
