Said of Tess: "You write some of the most sensuous love scenes in fantasy." I wish Tess were more of an author avatar, then--the one love scene so far was vague as all hell. LOL

Look, I love cons. I really do. But...don't you have something bigger to worry about at the moment than making it to the next one? WTF.

The book would have hit the wall if I hadn't been stuck at the laundromat with it. As it is, I kept going and may well go ahead and finish.

Cozier than I like my UF to be. Enough family bickering, can we get back to demon dogs?

Oh, I see. It's late, my eyes are playing tricks on me a bit.
No, there's only been one in the actual book. The protagonist is a writer, and someone just told her *she* writes sensuous love scenes.
Let me help the author with that back-patting. LOL
LOL! The worst case of that I've ever seen, though, was this book:
It's Christian fiction, which I don't read, but I got it from the library and the library label obscured the Christian press's logo. It sounded satirical and instead was preachy.But I bring it up now because the book consisted of chapters about an author protagonist interspersed with chapters from "the book the protag was writing." About half the dialogue consisted of people gushing about the protag's writing. Except, of course, the real author wrote both the actual narrative and "the protag's book." So he wrote a book wherein he kept telling himself how good his writing was!
The only time I ever have a character mention my writing in a book at all, it's usually to make some kind of comment on how batty I am. XD
