Come and Join Us For Saturday Spankings!

Today for my Saturday Spankings excerpt I’m sharing the eight sentences from The Grass Could Be Greener that follow last week. I hope you’re not sick of it but I hate to leave it in the middle. I hope you don’t mind , I went slightly over but a few of my sentences were really small.

“What you can’t do is lie about it.” Joe pulled her over his knee and brought his hand down sharply in a fluid movement, first to one cheek and then to the other. 

“If you need something, you have to say!”

“I’m sorry!” she wailed, mortified that he was staring at the very object of her displeasure, her fat bottom. She could only imagine how it wiggled and wobbled like a jello mould at Thanksgiving. It’d be the colour of cranberry jello by the time he was finished with it. “Yeow, Joe, it hurts!”

“There is no reason you have to pretend you’re sick to get out of church!” Several more hard smacks landed on the wiggling target.

“Stop, Joe, please!” she said, kicking her legs wildly in a vain attempt to get away from that punishing hand.

“We have to trust each other,” he lectured, punctuating each word with a sharp whack to each thigh.

“I will, Joe, please!” she said “Please.”

Come and Join Us For Some Saturday Spanking Snippets!

Saturday Spankings is a blog hop where writers share eight sentences of their work. Today I’m continuing from where I left off last week with The Grass Could Be Greener. 

“Why would you lie? “
“You know why.”
“If I ask you a question, it’s because I want to hear you answer it.”
“Nothing fits me! I hate still having to wear maternity dresses to church.”
“Why on earth didn’t you tell me that you needed clothes?”
“I just couldn’t. I couldn’t say to you that I was so fat that I had nothing to wear. I don’t even want bigger clothes! I just want to fit into my old clothes.”
“You can say anything to me,” Joe said with a thread of emotion cutting into his
normally clear voice.
“I know,” she said. The hurt in his voice was making her feel terrible.

Saturday Spankings Again!

Time for Saturday Spankings again. This week for my 8 sentences, I’m going to pick up where I left off last week with The Grass Could Be Greener. Sarah is remembering a time that Joe had put her in the corner for lying.

She sniffled as the tears that so far were unshed escaped and ran down her flushed cheeks. It was ironic really. She was in the corner, in trouble and naked for lying about being sick because she had nothing to wear to church that wasn’t maternity wear because she was still so fat! So he made her stand in the corner wearing nothing. Near a mirror. It was torture. She closed her eyes and tried not to watch herself in the full-length looking glass that was mocking her. Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who’s the fattest of them all. She pouted and Joe took her arm and frog marched her to the bed.

“Why are you in trouble?” he asked his face grim. 

“I lied,” she said looking him straight in the eye.

Please take a minute to check out the interview I did with Dinah McLeod

This weeks Bloglist

Introducing….drumroll Dinah McLeod!!!

I'm so happy to introduce a fellow author and a new friend Dinah McLeod. Welcome Dinah!

Thank you Constance! I'm so happy to be here! Thank you for having me!

You're very welcome Dinah. Now, you've come to talk about your new book An Errant Bride. I'm dying to hear all about it. Is this your first published book?

Yes it is. It's been out for about three weeks now, and it's been so fun to see how readers are responding to it.


Tell us about An Errant Bride.


Sara Harris has married a wonderful man, Ethan, and she thinks everything is going OK. He has other thoughts, and she is surprised, horrified and a bit sore after that discussion! She's never heard of domestic discipline before, but she already knows she doesn't like it one bit! She fights it tooth and nail until something has got to give...either a love for her bottom, or her love for her husband.




Where did the idea of the book come from?



Well, I live in a DD relationship, and I brought the idea of DD to my husband. In some ways he was resistant to the idea, so I knew how that story played out. I got to wondering if I could imagine it from the other side. A woman who, already married, was presented with this idea of being spanked for misbehaving. I didn't think it would go over well at first, and sure enough...


Fireworks right? Did you write much of yourself into the main character of Sarah?



Gosh, I hope not! I find Sara just a bit of a brat! Of course I have had people that know me read it and tell me it rings pretty well true to myself so maybe I'm a brat and I just don't know it!

Tell us the part you had most fun writing.



You know, it was actually after the book was written. I thought it was done, then a fellow author read it and told me to change something. At first, I thought it would be a small fix, but as you know,
stories sometimes write themselves. That ended up being a six page add-on, the scene between Sara and her Dad. I love it because it's her talking about her issues with her domestic discipline.




Are you working on something new? Give us an idea what we have to look forward to.





I have had several new projects, but the one coming next is called “Mona's Second Chance”. Mona has a cameo in An Errant Bride, so you get know her a bit. Mona has been divorced for over a year
now, and while she knows all the reasons her marriage ended, they no longer seem important. Colby, her Ex-husband, has moved on now and is serious with someone new, but Mona doesn't know if she can ever move on. Especially when he comes to help her when her car won't start, and all her old feelings come rushing back…

Just for fun here's five short questions so we can get to know you....

Sure, sounds like fun. Let's hear it.



What was the first book you read that had an impact on you? One that you just couldn't put down?


It was The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe. The first in the Narnia series. I was listening to a teacher read it in the fifth grade, and up until then I really wasn't interested in doing extracurricular
reading but hearing her read it I decided to read it for myself. It was the first time I realised that reading could take you to different worlds. I loved that feeling and later I decided that I wanted to do that for other people.

If you could be someone other than who you are who would that be?

The answer that might surprise you, but I think I'd be an actress. I've always thought there wasn't much of a leap from writing to acting, but I could be wrong. Still it would be fun to see. So let's see... I love Julia Roberts, so I'd trade places with her for a little while.



What's your favourite food?

Anything Italian.

Something that would surprise us about you.

Anyone that knows me would be surprised that I write spanking romance! Some might keel over from the shock, actually, but you already know that so...Oh I know. My celebrity crush is Tom Hanks. I know, I know. Most of my friends think I'm creepy to be in my twenties and have a crush on Tom Hanks, but I think he's amazing, and he's still cute so yeah.


Nothing wrong with Tom Hanks! What's your favourite TV show or movie?

I love TV in general, which makes it ironic that I don't have cable. My husband and I watch a lot together. We just got done watching How I Met Your Mother. I love that show. I love watching a romance unfurl, and you definitely have time to do it in this one!


What is the most exciting moment in your life so far?


Finding out I was pregnant with my first child. That was pretty awesome. A close second would probably be getting my book published. I have wanted to be a writer since I was little. A lot of my writer friends have moved on from that dream, but I never have, so it's so amazing to see it come true.

I have to agree with you on that one Dinah.

I guess that's all for now Dinah, it’s been a pleasure getting to know you a little better and hearing about your new book. Thanks so much for coming to visit!

Saturday Spankings

It’s Saturday Spanking time again where we all get the chance to share eight sentences from one of our works. Today I’ve decided to share a little of The Grass Could Be Greener. In this excerpt Sarah, the female character that is used to being a stay at home Mom that home schools, is starting her first day of Jamie’s life. She’s trying to get dressed for work but she’s totally out of her comfort zone. Her mind drifts back to another time when she’d been feeling insecure and how Joe had helped her out of her patch of insecurity…

“Are you sure they’re all asleep?” she asked from the corner. 

“Positive.” came the answer. “Now hush.” 

“Even Zeke and Josie?” 

“All of them, Sarah. Now HUSH.”

“Can I please at least put on a T–shirt or something?”

A sudden burst of stinging heat on each cheek answered her question but a

negative response followed anyway. “No.”

She sniffled as the tears that so far were unshed escaped and ran down her

flushed cheeks.
