What is the Unfinished Liaisons Series about?

Most of us have naughty secrets, crave a forbidden kiss, suffer an unrequited love, or cherish the memories of an illicit affair that would never be told. And somehow, these feelings lead us to a second chance, with the same person or a new one, we finally experience the love yearned for so long.
That is the common theme of the books in the Unfinished Liaisons Series, but every book in the series stand alone, and it’s independent from the others—even though, I might mention the same characters as supporting ones in more than one book. Also, every book has a complete story in it, regardless of its size, because as a reader I don’t like stories that stretch out in a few books, therefore, I’m not doing that as a writer.

The Stories That Has Been Published So Far:

Another update and also, I’m going to write Raul and Diego’ story.

I’m sorry for not updating this blog often, but I’ve been concentrated in writing, and I didn’t want to post without having any real news to report. Some of the readers of A Magnetic Couple Dilemma had asked for Raul and Diego’ story, which I’ve never planned to write. They were the product of what it’s called secondary character syndrome. Which it’s when one allows secondary characters to do whatever they wish because they don’t have to stand the same judgment as main characters, and don’t need to be redeemed, and sometimes they ended up being more interesting. So, yes, I’m going to write Raul and Diego’ story, indeed I already started. But first, I had to publish the books I had pending for publication since last year, which I plan to release in the next two months. I also, read your reviews and I appreciate the time each of you took to write them, so, I’ve been doing an extra effort to improve my grammar and my writing.

An update about me

I’m sorry that I haven’t update the blog in a while. Since the last time I updated, a lot happened in my life. It was like a hurricane hit my affairs (indeed, I experienced super storm Sandy).
Anyway, last September, my mother passed away, and while still mourning I had to relocate from the suburbs to the city. It was a move I’ve already planned and I couldn’t postpone, but the house I moved in needed a lot of repairs, which I did myself working countless hours without chance for anything else. Then in October, we got hit with hurricane Sandy, and November and December were very difficult.
So, I'm happy to report that everything is all right now.
I craved being online (I spent weeks without an unlimited Internet connection), just sitting at my desk and writing. This year started well, and I feel my circumstances steady enough for me to continue writing and revising my books.

A MAGNETIC COUPLE DILEMMA


Disappointed by politics and coverups, Father Esteban Hidalgo decides to leave the church, regardless of his conservative family tradition. The real trigger for his decision is losing his best friend, Mauricio, who died of AIDS, and whose last letter stirs forbidden desires, besides asking Esteban to look out for Mauricio’s widower, Javier Lozano.

Without Mauricio's love Javier collapses, and the only thing which keeps him going on is to fulfill Mauricio's last wish. Javier has to personally return twenty years of letters to Mauricio's pen pal and best friend, Esteban. Someone Javier hasn’t meet, but whose voice over the phone, helps Javier cope with his ignorant family that doesn’t even understand the different between being HIV positive and having AIDS. The meeting between Javier and Esteban changes their lives, but standing between them is a lethal virus, Esteban family’ prejudice, a twenty plus age gap, and the memories of the man—both once loved.

Why do I have to be such a conflict junkie?

Why do I have to be such a conflict junkie? I’ve been working for a couple of months on a story for the M/M Romance Group at Goodreads, and somehow I managed to complicate it so much, that now, I’m tangled with it. I know I should let it go, but I keep polishing it, adding layers of everything, while my kind beta-reader-copy-editor is waiting for the masterpiece.

I should have written something nice, simple with little conflict and a lot of sex scenes. Well, the a lot of sex scenes will be included, but it’s not an easy story. None of mine are.

One thing I learned is to stick with what I know or almost know for stories, because this one needed so much research that rather than a short story it seems I was writing an epic of some sorts. I better go back to it, or it will never be read by anybody else.

Struggling with backstories and flashback.

I’m still working on those books. It has been hard to deal with the past, but I think I finally got it. Thanks to some of my friends who suggested a few ways to feed the essential backstory into the books. Some nice picture for inspiration.

What I'm doing.

Just a quick update, if anybody cares to know. I've been working nonstop in my books, which I hope to release next week. I'm going self-published after watching the market for a couple of years. Besides, I'm a control freak, who loves to master every step of the process.

Now, back to the work, or those will never be published.
