If you’re in yyc, the Calgary Stampede kicks off today, and so, I’ve got cowboys on my mind:
The song is called “Cowboy Take Me Away,” of course:
I said, I wanna touch the earth
I wanna break it in my hands
I wanna grow something
wild and unruly
I wanna sleep on the hard ground
In the comfort of your arms
…and you can listen to it here:
And for a cowboy antidote… or a different kind of cowboy, if you’re in yyc, make sure you come to the launch of A Queer Summer Night in Cowtown:
Writer. Reader. Angster. Reformed Bohemian (not). Author of the erotic romance TELL ME, the erotic tragedy (with a happy ending) CONSEQUENCES (of defensive adultery), the award-winning rom-com (she's versatile) CHERRY PIE CURE, and TEXT ME, CUPID--a (slightly dirty) love story for 21st century adults who don't believe in love... but want it anyway. A sought-after speaker and presenter, Colette is also the author of the Dirty Writing Secrets Series, which includes the non-fiction collection of essays ROUGH DRAFT CONFESSIONS: not a guide to writing and selling erotica and romance but full of inside inside anyway, 101 FLIRTY WRITING PROMPTS TO SEDUCE YOUR MUSE, and ORGANIZED CREATIVE. She's also the curator of the fab YYC Queer Writers anthologies Queer Christmas in Cowtown, Screw Chocolate, and A Queer Summer Night's in Cowtown. Releasing Spring 2020: CUPID IN MONTE CARLO.
