I receive quite a few awesome questions about my schedule. One of the major misconceptions is, as an established writer (i.e. a writer with numerous books released and years of publishing behind me), I must take weekends off.
(laughs until my stomach hurts)
That is a big nope.
My Dear Wonderful Hubby currently has a fairly traditional job schedule. When I first met him, he was working three jobs. Right now, he works one job Monday to Friday (the hours are long, however).
I’ve never not worked on the weekends. Reader promotional events (all virtual for me) often happen on Saturdays and Sundays. I love to attend these get-togethers, be part of the happy chaos in Romancelandia.
When I was a full-time business babe, in addition to being a writer, the weekend was also my primary time for fresh writing. Saturdays and Sundays would often be longer workdays than my weekdays.
Writing is a lot of fun, is one of the best jobs on the planet, but it still requires showing up, completing tasks, being semi-awake. (laughs)
Now that I write full-time, my weekends are a bit more relaxed. The marketing part stays the same, as does the business part, but I usually cut my writing/revising schedule in half. That gives me more awesome time for reading and goofing around with the Dear Wonderful Hubby.
This is the schedule I need now to do all the things I want to do. Other writers take weekends off writing/revising. Or they might work harder on weekends.
I don’t know many established writers, however, that don’t do anything writing/publishing related on the weekends. As I mentioned, that is often when reader events happen.
If you’re writing this weekend, know that you’re not alone.

Containing Malice
This tormented cyborg craves vengeance…and her.
***
Malice, a C Model cyborg, has spent his long lifespan enslaved by the Humanoid Alliance. His cruel manufacturers have hurt him in all the ways a male could be hurt.
His enemy has now added a new weapon to their arsenal—a tiny human medic with soft hands and a delectable scent. She experiments on him multiple times a shift, delivering pain…and frustration.
He wants her. He also seeks retribution.
Once Malice frees himself, he plans to achieve both of his goals, taking Medic Illona captive and ending her research…permanently.
Illona is as much a prisoner as the cyborgs she experiments on. Since her arrival at the Human Alliance’s secret laboratory, she has carefully, stealthily, crafted a plot to free her test subjects. To conceal her covert activities, the medic has been forced to harm beings rather than heal them.
The being she has damaged the most is also the cyborg she fiercely desires— Malice, a huge, gray-skinned, blue-eyed C Model with massive hands and a voice deeper than space. He hates her, has good reason to do so, and, when he’s freed, there’s a high probability he’ll kill her.
Illona will take that risk to ensure he survives.
