So we’ve been on the new ship for a while now and I don’t think we’ve actually given everyone the tour.  We really do have lots to see and check out, besides all the hard bodies.  But since this is a Sunday and I’m obligated to present Hottie material, I’ve decided to sprinkle this post with various miscellaneous crew members.  I doubt anyone will have any complaints.

We start with a quick announcement.  There is an awesome auction going on right now over at the Eloisa James and Julia Quinn Bulletin Board.  A member on the board recently lost her husband.  So the wonderful authors along with Kim Castillo, the board moderator, called on some friends to help raise funds for a grieving family.  And boy did they come through.  Tons of booty for the bidding including ARCs (Advance Reader Copy) of highly anticipated summer and fall releases.  You can also get your hands on entire collections of series, most autographed, and other various goodies.  The auction runs through June 27 so get yerself over there today and lets get those bids going!

Now to the tour.  If you glance over to the left side of our page (past those gorgeous abs), you’ll find a list of rooms aboard the RWR.  First we have the Articles of Piracy.  This is where you’ll find our fantastic theme song as interpreted by our Captain.  And a bit of the origins of this little group.  But be warned, one read through and you’ll have the song stuck in yer head all day.

Hope you’re not afraid of heights because now we move up to the Crow’s Nest.  This is where you can find out who’ll be taking over the helm over the next several months.  Our guest blogger Pirates are always feisty and fun so missing them would be a crime, I tell you.  Be sure to check the Crow’s Nest regularly and mark yer calendar so as not to miss a thing.

Coming down out of the clouds we find Fore & Aft.  This is where you’ll find all the scoop on this mangy crew.  Most of it’s true, I promise.  Though we are writers of fiction and pirates to boot, so you can’t expect total honesty.

This next room might surprise you.  Yes, even pirates have Guidelines.  Actually, Captain Jack demanded we give him a place to spout his wisdom and so the Guidelines was born.  You’ll find everything you ever needed to know about being a writer the pirate way.  And really, isn’t that the only way?

We wrap up the tour by Going On Account.  This might just be the best room and yer right lucky we’re lettin’ ya know about it.  This is where the secrets be.  All kinds of treasure about writing, craft, and other writer sites where you can gain even more treasure of yer own.  You didn’t really think we came up with all this brilliance by ourselves did ya?

So, that’s the Sunday Hottie tour of The Romance Writer’s Revenge.  I do hope all the hotties you encountered along the way were to yer liking.  And not TOO distracting.  They are an attractive lot aren’t they?

Oh, can’t forget to mention this Friday (the 13^th!!!) we welcome Loucinda McGary to the ship.  You may also know Ms. McGary as Aunty Cindy of the Romance Bandits.  Her debut novel, The Wild Sight, hits stores in October and she was kind enough to agree to an interview with none other than moi.  Yeah, I was amazed too.  But the interview turned out great and she’s loads of fun so be sure to stop by this Friday and help us give her a warm pirate welcome.
