Interview with Dr. Shane Lawson from Clutch Wars 3: Sub Rosa by Mychael Black

What kind of job do you have?
Official or unofficial? *Shane grins* Officially, I’m head of a rather secretive lab that conducts research on various types of blood, supernatural and natural. Unofficially? I’m a cage fighter.

Describe yourself in three words.
*Shanes laughs* Kinky, headstrong, dominant.

Who is your love interest? 
Mason Navarro, a dragon and fellow cage fighter.

Tell us about your first kiss with Mason.
First, I must tell you about dragons. You see, dragons mate once, and only death can break such a bond. When a dragon meets his or her mate, there is an electric discharge, so to speak. It sparks between the dragon and the mate. Most people would assume the mate would be another dragon, but I can assure you that it is not the case. Now, as for the kiss… That came after our first fight. We’d seen one another many times, but no until did we hit the ring together did we realize what we were to each other. After the fight, I caught Mason alone. I simply didn’t give him the chance to refuse. It’s not in my nature to be passive—something Mason discovered quickly when I pinned him to a wall and shoved my tongue down his throat. He was quite shocked, I must admit. But he gave as good as he got.

List three things about Mason that turn you on. 
Only three? Hmm… His submission, his kiss, his tail.

Do you like using sex toys?
*Shane laughs* My dear, when do we not like to use toys? We live a Master/sub life—toys are a great part of that. Whips, chains, floggers, dildos, cuffs—all of it.

Top or bottom?
Now there is an interesting question. If you are referring to being fucked or doing the fucking, then I switch. I love feeling Mason inside me, even though I control every second of it. However, if you are referring to the lifestyle we live, then I am a Top—a Dom—at all times.

How did you and Mason meet? 
In the cage. We are both fighters in a fight club, and we met in the ring itself.

Do you have any pets? 
*Shane chuckles* A pet dragon named Mason.

Who is your arch enemy?
I’m not sure I could tell you. At over two thousand years old, I’ve stopped caring who hates me. Oh, there are people out there who probably would love to see me dead permanently, but I’d like to see them try.

Whipped cream or Marshmallow? 
As a vampire, I don’t consume food—unless you count Mason’s blood. But, if I had to choose, I would say whipped cream. Can you imagine the beauty of the pure white over skin the color of dark chocolate?

What is the craziest place you and Mason have made love? 
The training room at Bryn Navarro’s mansion. Mason had always been so nervous and leery about doing anything where we might be seen, primarily due to the fear of losing his fight job. He surprised me that day, I must say.

Would you call yourself golden or a bad boy/girl? 
*Shane grins* I’m sure I have elements of both, though some people may advocate for one over the other. I myself think I’m more…middle of the road.

How about Mason? Is he/she golden or a bad boy/girl? 
Mason, despite his temper at times, has a heart of pure gold. You wouldn’t think a cage fighter could be gentle, but I have seen him capture a butterfly in his hand, then release it unharmed. He is a truly magical being.

What's your idea of a romantic evening?
Chains, a whip, plenty of lube.

A relaxing bath or a long, hot shower? 
I’m not terribly picky, to be honest. We’ve done both. Though, I have to admit, I do love reclining back against my dragon.

Are you a night person or a morning person?
You may be surprised to learn that some vampires—such as myself—are diurnal. We are able to function quite well in daylight. That said, I still prefer the night.

What's your favorite food?
Well, that’s easy. Mason. Especially right when he climaxes.

What do you like to do in your free time? 
I have very little truly free time. If I am not in the lab, I am at the fight club or with Mason.

What do you like to wear to bed? 
Absolutely nothing. Clothing gets in the way when the urge to mount my dragon hits.

Boxers or briefs? 
Commando. Mason loves the way my cock feels through my slacks when I’m hard.

You and Mason are stranded overnight in a cabin. What would you do to pass the time? 
Find rope and a good, sturdy place to tie Mason up. After that, well… Would you get bored with a muscular dragon to play with?

Do you have any tattoos? 
I do not, though Mason has a few.

Would you share the blurb from your story?

Mason Navarro fled his brother's clan years ago and made a name for himself as a premier fighter in an underground fight club. Dr. Shane Lawson is a world-renowned scientist specializing in vampires and various matters relating to blood. When Bryn Navarro comes seeking help, neither man can refuse him.

The clan is readying for all-out war with a demonic force hellbent on wiping them out. It's going to take Mason's training and Shane's knowledge to keep them all from succumbing to the dangers of demonic blood. But demons don't play fair, and Mason Navarro is forced to make a decision: stay hidden in the closet, or save the man he loves more than life itself.

Tasty Tuesday: The Easiest Pull-Apart Bread You'll Ever Make!

We made this pull-apart bread for Christmas and our last 4-H group meeting and it was devoured both times! It's super easy and super tasty.

All you need are:
A can of Grands biscuits (Golden Layers work really well)
3/4 a stick of butter
4 cloves of garlic, minced
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated (use fresh if possible!)
1 tsp basil, oregano or Italian seasoning

Preheat the oven to 350. Break your biscuits up into bite-sized pieces. (If you have kids, this is a great way for them to help you cook!) Mix all ingredients except for the butter and toss them with your biscuit pieces. Melt your butter, either in your oven as it pre-heats or in the microwave, and toss the bread in it as well. Top it with any additional cheese if you prefer and bake it for 20 minutes. Serve hot.

You can substitute other cheeses if you like, too. We used cheddar on another loaf. It just didn't taste as good as the Parmesan, though!

Interview with Anastas (cat vampire) from Vampires in Heat by Kira Stone


My name is Anastas, and I’m a cat vampire.  I live with a human, but only because he needs my help.  I’m sure you human types would rather hear from him, or from Erron and Nolan, but they’re a bit busy.  I’m in between naps, so you get to hear from me.

What kind of job do you have? 

Keeping Seattle safe from non-pacifist bloodsuckers, along with a few humans.  They might think they are in charge, but we all know cats really run the show.

Who is your love interest? 

Tania.  She is my mate, and mother of my kittens.  She’s not a cat vampire yet, but I hope to change her mind in time.

Tell us about your first kiss with Tania. 

Cats don’t kiss, human.  Geesh.

How did you and Tania meet? 

In the streets.  I’d already picked her out as mine, but then a human picked her up.  Turned out to be a nice human who let me court her…

Do you have any pets? 

No.  Big no.  Do you think I have time to take care of anything besides Tania and herding humans?

Who is your arch enemy? 

Douglas Gundar, although he’s no longer a problem.  (fangs bared)

Whipped cream or Marshmallow? 

Cream.  Get with the cat thing, would ya?

A relaxing bath or a long, hot shower? 

I can wash myself without either, thank you.

Are you a night person or a morning person? 

I don’t have that light restriction like most vampires so I’m a cat, awake when I wanna be.

You and Tania are stranded overnight in a cabin. What would you do to pass the time? 

Cats aren’t like humans.  We aren’t in constant heat.  We’d find a way out, eat mice, sing to each other, nap.  I refuse to cry for human help.

Do you have any tattoos? 

Yes, but you can’t see it because of my fur.  Check out Erron’s foot though… (cat laugh)

Would you share the blurb from your story?  Definitely

Humans in Seattle are dying as a result of domestic cat vampires and demonesses working together. The latest victim is Erron's neighbor and best friend. Nolan, the leader of Seattle's Pacifistic Vampire Clan, and Erron, an albino who is commonly mistaken for a vampire, team up with the cat vamp leader to find the rogues who are killing needlessly and trying to discredit vampire-kind. And just maybe, between them, they'll find more than a remedy for this vampire scourge -- like love!

Tasty Tuesday ~ Fantastic Football Cookies for Super Bowl Munching!

I thought I'd jump in and post a Tasty Tuesday Recipe. I haven't done so in a while and when I got this recipe, I had to tweak it a little bit. Tweaking is fun and part of what Changeling is all about.

Fantastic Football Cookies

You can make these a myriad of ways, but mine are with chocolate chips because well, I like chocolate.
Chocolate Cookies with Milk Chocolate and Peanut Butter Chips (2)
By slgckgc [CC-BY-2.0
 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0)],
via Wikimedia Commons
2 1/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 sticks butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs, beaten
1 tablespoon vanilla
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
2 cups chocolate chips, 2 Hershey's chocolate bars, chopped or M&M'S
1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a bowl stir together flour, salt, and baking soda. In another large bowl stir together butter, both sugars, eggs, vanilla and cocoa. Gradually stir flour mixture into butter mixture and mix until combined. Stir chocolate chips and walnuts, if using, and stir to distribute evenly.

Roll out the dough onto a sheet of wax paper or parchment and cut out using football shaped cookie cutter. Bake about 10 minutes. Cool on a baking rack.

When totally cool, use decorator icing in white or your favorite colors to decorate the cookies. Licorice works well for lacing, too. Make them yourself or have them serve as an activity during the game. Whatever you do with them, have fun!

Dragons!

Who loves dragons? I always have, but have been afraid to write them because some of my favorite writers dabble in them. I finally took the plunge while writing my next book for Changeling, called Elemental Ops.

There's nothing new under the sun, I know, and dragons have been explored infinitely, so what I tried to do was work a new angle around them, and man, did it open a can of worms. I love that, when you have an "iceberg" story, where you write and write and know you haven't even seen what's below the surface.

In this case, my dragon Guardian, named Keon, falls for a Black Ops agent who's come to investigate what might be a new biological weapon...

The first book, Elemental Ops: Ice, comes out next month!

Ice has a whole story of his own, being the elemental operative. Y'all met him (I hope you did, anyway)in the last Mixed Breeds story.

If you haven't read Damon's story and met the Elemental Ops team, you can find those here!

Hope you'll take the ride with me!
