I have deadlines, so why the hell am I procrastinating!



 By Olivia Starke
So here I am, facing THREE end of April deadlines for two different publishers. One for two 7k+ eroticas, and one for a 17k+ paranormal erotic romance. I promised both would be finished and ready to go by the end of April, because I’m awesome like that. And when I say awesome I mean bloody crazy, because I’m still not clear how any of these stories will go.
What am I doing instead? For one, avoiding my situation by cyberstalking Matt Smith on Tumblr and Pinterest.As I do most days, because, well, it’s Matt Smith, and I’m sort of in love with him. (If you’re scratching your head why, talk with my b/f/f Erin, she understands.)

And second, spending a great deal of time staring into space, just like in math class back in the day. I’m not sure what it is about a looming deadline that brings out the procrastinator in me. Maybe I like the rush of adrenaline when I put things off last minute. Sort of like bungee jumping for those of us not insane enough to try bungee jumping. Maybe I like the sleepless nights worrying about my procrastinating. Maybe I simply have a screw loose. Whatever it is, it likes to eat up a great deal of my time. And I let it, welcoming it with open arms.


If you’re a procrastinator like me, feel free to share your woes (with an email!) and I’ll enter you for a chance to win something from my Decadent backlist J

But something deeper lies in their magical connection, something she isn’t prepared for. Will a casual one-night stand change her life forever?
