Caffey - no way GF. Do you sleep at all?
Carly Phillips - Hmmm ... didn't know you then, and you live at the opposite end of the state. Wonder why ... <g>
GoddessFawn - yaeh especailly if I'm not working then I can read evn more than that
Sara - poor Diane
Sara - there must be a GOOD reason 
moosehog - I read 5 books and reviewed them the same day the other day . Not that hard . Just don't get anything else done .. 
GoddessFawn - I'm a Speed reader
Carly Phillips - Sorry thrown off again.
Caffey - i can't i love to devore them. i can't spell...
Carly Phillips - where was i?
Carly Phillips - Did my favorite scene come through?
Cissy - reposting my question since both of us got bumped
Cissy - Carly, what's your favorite scene in SIMPLY SEXY?
Sara - nope, still waiting on that scene!!
Sara - so hot you disappeared!!
GoddessFawn - @ 
Caffey - lol Sara!
Carly Phillips - My favorite scene is the one in the bathroom, after Emma "accidentally" spills champagne on Rina's white blouse, then sends Colin and Rina upstairs to change. While Emma's ducking the judge who's interested in her.
Sara - so stop blaming the software, moosie, operator error....although could be poor design
Sara - hmm
moosehog - Glad someone enjoyed it Fawn
Carly Phillips - It's what happens after that was fun to write ... hint, hint.
moosehog - I admit it was me this time ... Others it hasn't been .
moosehog -  Carly ???
Sara - Carly, what is the biggest secret your hero or heroine has that you don't think the readers know?
Carly Phillips - Did it work now?
Cissy - LOL, Carly - ya think? 
GoddessFawn - Now I NEED this Book
Carly Phillips - Unfortunately my writing's pretty much an open book. If there's a secret, the reader usually knows even if one or other characters don't ...
Sara - yup, you have spilled the champagne to get a little action -- a good move!
Carly Phillips - It has something to do with training, you see
Sara - the training? can you explain?
GoddessFawn - (writing down Carly's book on paper)
Cissy - what are you working on now, Carly?
Carly Phillips - I wrote Perfect Partners w/the heroine's infertility a secret from the hero AND the reader and was nailed by an editor who explained, build suspense by
O - 
Carly Phillips - letting the audience in on a secret the other character doesn't know. So I do.
Caffey - I got this book GF. at the store it has the stickers on it from Harlequin that says "Read of the Month"
moosehog - Carly's an open book ????
Caffey - I put some of the books next to THE BACHELOR
Cissy - 
Carly Phillips - I'm between books, Cissy. I finished my novella in Invitations to Seduction (Blaze) which is out this summer, and I'm waiting on a storyline OK from my editor on my next Warner book.
Sara - that's what she said, an open book
Carly Phillips - Cool, Caffey! I LIKE hearing that!
Carly Phillips - My stories,, Diana.
Sara - O has the next question
moosehog - GOOD ..Then open to this page .... 136-137
Carly Phillips - Cool move, Diana. I did the same thing locally.
Sara - poor Diana, she was getting so excited
moosehog - Simply SEXY ... got to love open book pages like that .
Carly Phillips - My novella's called Going All the Way ... 
O - Do you write a certain amount of time every day
moosehog - ***pssst Sara ..that happens easily with me .
Sara - Denise, welcome to our monthly Temptation chat with Carly Phillips (and hopefully Julie Kistler). We are on protocol, so type a ? to be put in the queue. I will call on you in turn.
Nichole - Gotta get Perfect Partners now. I have all your books except the first two
Carly Phillips - I should, O. I really really should but since this summer, my schedule's gone to pot. I work on # pages a week not hours a day.
Denise - Thanks, Sara
Carly Phillips - Really? That's awesome, Nichole. So you don't have Brazen either? I hope they reprint that one.
Cissy - When do we get THE PLAYBOY, Carly?
Carly Phillips - I try for 25 pages a week.
Carly Phillips - Hopefully January 1, Cissy. Fingers crossed!
GoddessFawn - I just got a call on my callwave. It's my mommy. I'll call her back after the chats
GoddessFawn - Does it help if you Cross all Your fingers and your toes.
moosehog - Fawn
Denise - Sara, will this chat be in the archives?
Carly Phillips - You guys are quiet. We need Julie Kistler ...
Sara - yes, Denise, it will
Carly Phillips - Then I don't write, Fawn <ggg>
Cissy - do you see yourself continuing to do category and single title for awhile, Carly?
O - // huh
moosehog - Psst ..Karen , barb said to say hi ...From RF
O -
Denise - Carly, I'm sorry I was late. I havent' congratulated you (except on CATA) for your success with Kelly Ripkin.
Caffey - lol Carly
Cissy - yeah, where is she?? 
Carly Phillips - Well the short answer is yes, I do. I'm never sure what the future holds any more, LOL but yes I do.
Carly Phillips - Diana, who's chatting there?
moosehog - I am talking to her on computer right now .
Carly Phillips - You're SO bad!
Carly Phillips - Oh.
moosehog - SARI
Carly Phillips - Say hi back!
moosehog - Her mom is better after her fall and 8 hours on the kitchen floor .
Carly Phillips - Thanks, Denise. Kelly was such a huge thing. I NEVER expected it, nor did I expect the huge success after!
moosehog - Will Do .
Carly Phillips - WHAT! I didn't know about that, Diana. Today?
O - Are you married and do you have kids
Nichole - I watched the Kelly Ripa discussion and read the articel Carly wrote in RT about her experience. I don't think it was fair that you couldn't mention the other books in the trilogy
Sara - O has the next question
Carly Phillips - I'm married for 13 years and have two girls, 10 and 6.
Denise - expected or not, you deserved it all
moosehog - The other day Karen .
Carly Phillips - Lots more info on the newly updated website, if I can brag a bit <g>
Carly Phillips - www.carlyphillips.com
moosehog - Hi Denise 
Carly Phillips - Thanks, Denise! That's SO sweet.
GoddessFawn - People look at me craazy when I find a book I've been looking for cause I do a happy dance and kiss the book and hug it too
Caffey - yep i saw it, it looks great Carly
Carly Phillips - Diana, I ask Barb all the time how her mom is. She didn't say anything yesterday and I guess I didn't ask yesterday

Denise - Cathie, I even gave my boss a kitten and I still can't have Saturday off
GoddessFawn - Yep Sara Right in the store
Sara - ?
Carly Phillips - Well I'm a lawyer, but I know darn well I wouldn't go back to that. I'd probably be a soap junkie who didn't write.
Carly Phillips - I really don['t know. I can't imagine not writing!
Cissy - lol, Sara - need me to call on you? 
GoddessFawn - @ moose
Sara - Do you see any more in the "Simply" series? more characters we don't know about?
Sara - nah, Sara has the next question (and posted it)
Carly Phillips - I love your proficiency w/the icons, all of you!
Cissy - lol
moosehog - Karen , she had to come home from work today because mom didn't answer phone . She couldn't move .High Sugar and something is stiff .
O - You mean soap opera which do you watch
moosehog - 
Sara - since you aren't doing Blazes -- what other Tempations -- besides novellas are you planning or thinking about?
Carly Phillips - Well there's Simply Sultry, that's Frankie's story in ST and after that, my editor and I decided to close shop there for awhile.
GoddessFawn - I haven't had a big O in a long time so I get my kicks from the books BG
Carly Phillips - things can change, but for now ...
moosehog - Carly ..we have no life ..Only our authors .
Denise - ?
Carly Phillips - It does get harder to stay fresh when you keep revisiting.
GoddessFawn - The Hotter they Are the Hotter I get BG
Carly Phillips - LOL. That's what we authors count on!
moosehog - The wetter is more like it .
Carly Phillips - Diana!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
moosehog -
Denise - Carly, do you find the emotional level of Temptations hard to limit while developing enough sensual tension?
Sara - Denise has the next question
GoddessFawn - Especailly when I end up going out into the cold night to cool off
moosehog - Carly it's all your fault . You have corrupted ,e .
Caffey - Denise, did you give her a litter box too?
O -
Carly Phillips - Good question. I've been told on first drafts read by my editor to beef up sexual tension. I think my emotional is always there if only because I build conflict via backstory and emotion. I hope! I don't usually have a problem writing shorter ... at least not yet, LOL.
Denise - yep, Cathie, and food, and offered her one of my kids to babysit hers. She cried because she felt so bad about having to say no
Carly Phillips - Good question. I've been told on first drafts read by my editor to beef up sexual tension. I think my emotional is always there if only because I build conflict via backstory and emotion. I hope! I don't usually have a problem writing shorter ... at least not yet, LOL.
