Chick Lit , Chocolate, and Sex...Oh Yeah!

I want to THANK YOU for reading my blog, and hope that you visit back whenever you have a chance.

I hope I am entertaining you, at the very least.

I’m not sure who ALL of you are - well I do know who a few of you are and I do love you! - and if you can relate to chick lit.

But maybe, just possibly, you can relate to what my chick lit novel is about.

It’s about addiction. I’m sure you can relate to that. I’m sure there is something in this universe that you LIKE A LOT. For me, it’s plenty of things, a plethora of FUN things to do. One of them is to write.

Another is to consume large quantities of chocolate.

I am probably the type of person who’d become a chocoholic, shopaholic, foodaholic, sexaholic, movieholic, relationshipaholic, internetjunkieholic, and others. Gambling? Oh yeah. I like it and games, too. Workaholic too. Writeaholic especially.

So I am writing about addiction in my dark comedy/murder mystery/thriller/chick lit novel:

Ghosts! Sex! Madness! Murder! And Chocolate! Jara Jade and all her quirky addicted-addled friends have serious problems. She has a chocolate addiction, AND she’s just been stabbed almost-to-death by a mysterious X, and the best she can do right now is recover and stay with her sex-addicted best friend, Jazhette, sleeping on an acid pink couch after losing her shitty temp accounting job. Her boyfriend having kicked her out, her “career” in the toilet, and herself a major chocoholic with a tendency to foam at the mouth and hallucinate, she realizes that all she really needs to do is recover and Get A Life. But reality checks in badly when her friend, Chryssa, a spy-in-training (a SPIT) is subsequently murdered. Jacy attempts to solve the crime with help from her quirky and odd friends. Her quirky friends include Gloria, a magician friend who is flanked by a pissed-off ghost; Sheena, a gambling addict (they do daily interventions and now she has an assigned “bodyguard”); Sabrina, who winds up being an ex-serial killer in therapy (a SKIT) turned hit woman, which doesn’t help matters much; and of course, Jazhette. There are several questions Jara needs to answer: whose body was buried next to Jazhette’s newly planted organic tomato plants, will she make it with her new career as a writer, has her dead friend Chryssa really hooked up with Gloria’s ghost/past life ex-boyfriend, Victor, and is there life after NOT having a life, and if so, why does it have to be smack-dabbled dunked-down-deep in the heart of murder and much foul play? This is an acid-spiked black comedy from the quirkiest depths of despair and…well, Hell.

It’s a vast madcap galore roller-coaster ride of glitz, glamour, sex, murder, intrigue, and bathroom humor comedy.

It’s a tossed salad/salad bar of: sex, murder, addiction, jealousy, love, comedy, paranormal – ghosts, exorcist, séance, creative writing groups (and the dynamics of them), girlfriends, girlfriend code of ethics, breakups, bad breakups, dating, crushes, nosy neighbors, serial killers, whodunit, clues, red herrings, threats, stalkers, magic and magicians, spy and snoops, dead bodies, kidnapping, girlfriend dynamics, boycrazy, chocolate addiction, gambling addiction, intervention, secrets, love affairs, getting fired, one night stands, parties, therapy, career change advice and articles, overbearing aunts, loser friends who get great boyfriends, fab friends who get horrid boyfriends, etc.

I’ve posted Chapter One and Chapter Two in earlier blog posts. I will be posting Chapter Three soon. Not sure when. I am very non-linear.

Enjoy and have a fantabulous day!
