maneuver over them and carry on, and in that spirit I am proud to host this wonderful romance erotica author as she shares with us why she doesnt delete scenes.
Enjoy!
Hello! This week on the TTC/MasterKoda Virtual Blog Tour we
are discussing and sharing deleted scenes.
First I’d like to be a gracious
guest and say thank you to Anjie for hosting me this week! I enjoy visiting
and guest posting on other blog’s, and this blog is no different.
I would love to share a deleted scene with you, really I
would. But the truth of the matter is - I don’t have one. “How can that be?”
you might ask.
Well, I am the type of writer who doesn’t include enough in
my stories. I was once told by an editor that I had too much going on, and that
I had things in there that took away from the plot. So now I try to stick to
the basics, but that doesn’t always work out either, because then I have to go
back and add to my manuscripts from holding back too much.
I think I like the idea of adding better than deleting. I
mean, how would you determine what to take out? As a writer, I fall in love (or
at least in like) with my work, so I would imagine cutting some of it would be
painful. There have been some sentences or small paragraphs I’ve had to remove,
usually due to being too wordy, or from being repetitive, and even then it can
be difficult to let it go.
The idea of adding instead of deleting suits me just fine!
When I need to build on the story the only problem I might have is where to
place it, but then it works out in the end.
What is it I usually have to add?
Back story. So I plan to keep that mind as I write, and
still remember not to go overboard, or to get sidetracked.
Easier said than done!

Laci Paige is the author of the erotic novella, Let’s Keep
On Truckin’. She lives in Hampton Roads, VA with her family and enjoys
photography. She also enjoys interacting with fans on social media.
Blurb from “Let’s
Keep On Truckin’” (By Laci Paige and Decadent Publishing, heat level 4).
Lily loves traveling on
her job since no one can do it better than her. Being out on the open road
gives her plenty of time to reflect and avoid unwanted attention, but somehow
it always finds her....
When she comes across Ryder, first at a grocery store, then at a rest stop, sexual desire sparks and she knew she had to have him. If only her ex hadn't shown up, igniting a fantasy she never thought possible.
Seeing Alex in a whole new light, Lily realizes second chances are in order, but will she have to choose between the two men? Or could she be happy with both?
