When I'm writing a book, I reach a point in the process where it becomes a constant presence in my thoughts. In every spare moment, I'm running dialogue through my head, planning scenes, adding layers and so on. My husband calls it obsession, I call it being in the zone--tomato, tom-whatever, you get the point. Well after writing a pretty intense scene and hitting the sack, I had a dream about the little novella I'm working on. Now it's not like I woke up with new scenes in my head or a plot change or anything like that. What I did wake up with was a clear picture of the Dominant in my story.

I Love the Way You Lie - Eminem I am obsessed with this video right now. It brings to mind the book I'm currently working on. The relationship pushes a few boundaries and my female protagonist isn't a submissive by the standard definition. I happen to have an affection for non-standard, undefinable BDSM. It's so much more fun then the typical D/s out there. Don't get me wrong, I love D/s in all it's forms but when people start talking about definitions and stereo-types, I break out in hives. I like to live outside of the box and it's going to show in this book.
