Snoopy Dance!

I'm so excited to be a Sorceress! I foresee wonderful things happening with this group!

For those of you who don't know me, I'm Robin. I write under the pen name Trista Bane, so feel free to call me Trista. I normally write paranormal erotic romances, but I do have a contemporary, sweet romance (with fantasy elements) currently available for free download at Twilight Fantasies Publications. The story is called Petals in the Snow.

Besides Petals, I have three other works published. Diary of Alexis originally appeared in an anthology that has been pulled by the publisher because other authors pulled their works. It will be re-released under a new name later this year. The sequel, Alyssa's Choice, is scheduled to release on May 2, 2007. Song of Seduction is a vampire paranormal erotic romance. It features menage scenes, and is currently available at Silk's Vault Publishing. Blood of Lycaon: Dream Lover is also available now from Silk's Vault Publishing. It is the first in the Blood of Lycaon series. The second, Alanda's Trust, is expected to be released this year.

I live in Northeast Arkansas with my wonderful husband, Mack, and our three children. Our daughter is 16 (going on thirty), our oldest boy is twelve, and our youngest boy is turning eight this weekend. So, I get to throw a party and eat my favorite food-- Birthday Cake! (big grin)

I teach English (9th and 10th grades) and Creative Writing (11th and 12th grades) at an area high school. My favorite topics to teach (besides Creative Writing, lol) are fantasy and mythology. I blend my love for fantasy and mythology into my writing. Vampire Trinity, which is currently under contract with Venus Press (no word yet on a release date), is the perfect example of how much I love mythology. I also love teaching Shakespeare! No. Really! I swear! I really do love teaching it. This year, I made a video featuring clips from the movie of Romeo and Juliet and the song "Far Away" from Nickleback. My students LOVED it!

I also teach English Composition I and English Composition II (and sometimes World Literature I and World Literature II) at the local college. During the school year, I only teach one class per semester. I often teach more than one during the summer. I have an MSE in English, and I'm working part-time on my MSE in School Counseling. I guess I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up, lol.

My hubby is my high school sweetheart! I love him with all my heart. He and my children are my world. My husband is not only my life-partner, but my business partner as well. He's always supported me in my writing, and has read every story I've written! I'm very lucky to have him and my children. And I'm very lucky to have such wonderful friends as CJ, Annmarie and Cassidy!

So, who wants to join me in a Snoopy Dance?
