A Cool Gig For A Hot Writer

Guest Bloggers, News 179

We all know Ethan Day and some of us love him or his writing, or both. Occasionally he graces this site with his presence and his strangely rational view of life, love and the next hot man. 🙂 So with money in hand I approached him with a proposition to write occasional posts for the site. I promised that there would be no fixed schedule because we all know you can’t pin a ‘player’ down, and he is definitely one of the hottest players around.

So with this long introduction I wish to announce that Ethan Day will be spending a bit more time with all of you who drop by this site. He promised to write something every three months or so about the state of the universe as he sees it. No money exchanged hands but I did promise a few gifts in return for him agreeing to take us to the next level (of what, I have no idea).  He murmured something about long muscular legs that never quit, soulful eyes you can lose yourself in, and plump lips that give new meaning to enticing, but somehow I don’t think he and I are on the same page – or maybe we are. 🙂

Ethan has written many memorable books. I can’t really categorize them except to say that they are very different from what’s available on the market today, and you wouldn’t find another author who could make you laugh and cry at the same time and then laugh all over again. His characters are unusual and I can’t describe them either, but they come alive on the pages of his novels in a way that I rarely see, and reflect his own unique approach to looking at men, life, and love with the improper stranger.

I would like to welcome Ethan to the site although it seems as if he has never left since he was here last. 😉 I’m sure we will have a lot of fun with him –  just as much fun as he has toying with us.

    • Since it looks like you’re the sacrificial lamb at the altar of Ethan according to Tam, you should start shaving those long muscular legs, use a bit of guy liner, and a nice beeswax for the lips to keep them plump but firm should work. Good luck Cole. We’re all behind you. (That doesn’t sound quite right) 🙂

      • Ummm, there is a gloss-type product from one of those mineral make-up companies called “Buxom” specifically made to create “plump lips that give new meaning to enticing”, just sayin. And I know if my stuffy nose would allow oxygen to reach my brain, there is some comment to be made about that whole sidebar during the book give-away referring to the availability of Ethan’s *blushing* package.
        But all that aside…I loved this site before but will never want to leave now with Ethan’s zaniness making regular appearances!! Love his sense of humor! Welcome, Ethan!!
        (oh yeah, and good luck, Cole) 😉

        • Word Press is driving me crazy. It just chewed up another comment.

          Buxom … hmmmm …. you don’t want to know what I’m thinking. 😉

          Re the *package* thing, HE started it by saying that his package was available.

          I’m not sure we’re allowed to use the word zany in relation to E, which is why it’s not in this post. lol

          • I think zany is an okay word because Ethan was telling me it had something to do with monkeys going around shoving their privates in each others faces 🙁

          • So zany = monkey business? or zany = hot monkey love?? or zany just = a bunch of REALLY pushy monkeys??? =O
            *asks innocently*

        • Hi SusieQ – I’m totally going to be using this Buxom shit in a book at some point. That is hysterical!

          And I never did share my package last week!! ; )

          • LOL…should I tell you that it kinda makes your lips tingle?

            And not sure if the lack of package sharing is a good thing or not? Prolly a good thing, what with the whole MEAT tour starting up, think of the scandal it could have caused!!

    • Barely in the door five minutes and already receiving threats. Nice!! : )

      So bossy…this Cole cutie is turning out to be! And he looks all sweet and innocent in his pic. ; )

    • I know Feliz. What was I thinking? As if it’s not crazy enough here with all the testosterone and Buda and Tj mud wrestling in the hot tub with the boyz. Oh well, one more crazy should not make a bit of difference … maybe 🙂

  • I can’t believe you offered Cole up to him Wave. *shakes head* 😛

    Looking forward to Ethan’s posts. They are always good for a smile.

    • Tam,

      Are you referrng to my “long muscular legs that never quit,” my “soulful eyes you can lose yourself in,” my “plump lips that give new meaning to enticing,” or D: All of the above?

      Oh stop it 😉 lol.

        • Speak? Speak? Who said anything about speaking? lol. I think he’d like the “tarting up” thingy though.

          He’s going to kill me when he reads this post and the comments.

          Cole you will always be a manly man – not like that Buda who plays with unmentionable things in his lab, weighs them and tests their resiliency. 🙂

          BTW I think TJ feels he may be in line as Ethan’s play toy – not you. 😉

          • Wave, if you remember correctly, I was most unceremoniously “offered” up to Ethan. Virgin sacrifices never volunteer for that grimy job (no offense Ethan! You’re still a catch lol). Virgin sacrifices… As if 😉

          • I am NOT Ethan’s boy toy! I’m freakin’ old enough to be his father! Cole is still young and fresh enough for that title. 🙂

  • What great news. I love Ethan’s writing. I just re-read Sno Ho and it was just as good and fresh as the first time around. I’m now reading Life in Fusion and WOW. Next up is Self Preservation but I may have to take an Ethan Break and read something else so I still have the excitement of an Ethan Book to get to. Unless there’s another one coming out soon. (hint, hint, hint) 🙂

    • Jeffrey
      He has a new book coming out in about 3 months and I’m sure he can’t wait to talk about it. 🙂

      You can read Tigers & Devils. As I recall you got quite the haul on December 24th. 🙂

      • You’re right and that doesn’t even include the fact that I recently bought the 2008, 2009, and 2010 Advent Calendars from Dreamspinner and I’m only part of the way through the first. And on top of that, I see there is a new Andrew Grey being given away this week. If I’m lucky, I won’t win it (but who am I kidding, I’ll just wind up buying it right away anyway 🙂 ).

        • Ami I going to get the manuscript the day BEFORE the book releases as per usual or maybe I could get it at least a week ahead of time. *smiles nicely*

  • Oh, what a wonderful news! I love Ethan’s writing and his sense of humor. Not to mention that he didn’t even joined us yet and we are already talking about sacrificing virgins, long legs and plump lips. If that isn’t promising I don’t know what is. XD

    • I know LadyM, right? Wave is always trying to point the finger at me for stirring everyone up…sheesh. Anyone who knows me, would tell you what a shy, demure individual I am. : )

  • What great news! I can’t wait to read what Ethan will “cook-up” for us!

    Wave, you really DO give us the best 🙂

  • Thanks for the fab intro, Wave! Of course I should clarify that I never asked for the whole long legged, Hoover lipped guy with soulful eyes. I wouldn’t know what the hell to do with soulful eyes!?! I’d be freaking out wondering where the hell the instruction manual was for that particular model of manhood. I’m more into smart-assed guys who’ll argue with me, lmao.

    So, while there are no sacrificial virgins required, Wave did sub-contract Cole, TJ, & Buda out to me so I could form my very own boy band. I’m planning the European leg of our world tour as we speak! : ) We’ll be like Josie and the Pussycats, only dudes. I’ve decided to call us, MEAT! I’m such a diva…haven’t even recorded our first hit single yet and I’m already making unilateral decisions. I am so gonna be the Belinda of our band!! : )

    Looking forward to finally having an actual reason to come by and say inappropriate things!

    • Ethan
      I love the name of the new band. Whose meat will be on display?

      Seriously, I think you’re already a hit going by the ribald comments and they can’t wait for your first post. 🙂 Are there going to be pictures? Plug and play?

      Have you noticed that the women are all over you? Don’t they know that you’re …ummmm…. GAY?

      • Hmmm…is “plug and play” REALLY the phrase you want to use, Wave, considering the tone of the comments already? LOL
        And I was wondering if MEAT really stood for “Meet Ethan At…” but the T has me stumped

  • “Ethan was telling me it had something to do with monkeys going around shoving their PRIVATES in each others faces”

    Sounds like Cole’s been watching an entirely different type of nature show than I was. The show I saw was ass-specific, with regard to what was being shoved in the other monkey’s faces.

    And I’m cool with zany. I wear zany like a badge of honor. : )

  • TJ…you are NOT old enough to be my father. My Daddy, maybe…but that’s something else altogehther. Hee.

    And FYI…you don’t need to be a boi to know how to toy. : )

  • Sitting back, munching popcorn, and enjoying the rather rapid descent into madness this thread has taken. And to think it’s only the beginning….muuhaha!!!

  • Ethan, dearest, dearest Ethan. I thought you had more sense than to agree to anything Wave suggests. What am I gonna do now? First, I lost TJ to the dark side with the whole “interview” and now you’ve been brought in, too. I swear Wave must be some sort of Vampire Queen or something!

    That said, welcome aboard, honey. I can’t wait to see what you have to say in your “official” posts. 🙂

    As for this MEAT business… Jeebus! Only if you promise our first single will be a remake of “Dontcha,” and that I’ll never have to hear another Beyonce or Taylor Swift death-warble again. (Actually, I could go for the death-warble, just not that crap they’re passing off as “singing.”)

  • LMAO – reading this thread is the best entertainment around tonight. I’m saving room on my iTouch for MEAT 😉 Hope there is a video to go along with the first single as I wanna see Ethan work that long………………….. hair……

  • Oh Wave, I think this thread is terrifically RIGHT! I can’t stop laffin!!
    And LMAO at the Buxom tingle…

    And I REFUSE to comment on Tj’s addition to the monkey joke! (But that was the best comment ever!!)

  • I’m making popcorn and grabbing a drink. Following the comments by the effervescent singing group, Ethan and Meat(balls?), is great fun. 😉

    Sorry, Wave, it’s totally out of your hands now.

      • If they are girl groupies they won’t have balls, and if they are boy groupies, when Buda is done with his weighing, tasting and measuring of said balls they may all be twisted out of shape. 🙂 Can something like that be twisted out of shape? Maybe a conehead?

        • We’ll have balls we can sell – as part of our marketing – for those who don’t have any. Apparently we can leave the design and research in Buda’s very capable hands.

  • Well you all had me at plump monkey loving meat tour with big packages, such a nice pic in my mind. Looking forward to your post Ethan. Kinda new here to Jessewave and enjoying it immensely.

  • Okay…time for me to embrace my inner-grandpa and drag my ass to bed! I can still squeeze in seven hours if I go now. That was HOURS not inches people. : )

    This was tons of fun! I can’t wait to come home tomorrow afternoon to see where this has all led.

    Have a lovely evening everyone : )

    • It’ll be fine Wave. Hey you survived me and Buda! And Ethan’s been like our adopted brother all this time, so now you just made it all legal.

      In all seriousness this is a really great thing. We all love the little goofball. I’m looking forward to Ethan’s posts.

      Now I must follow grandpa to bed!

      • Aye, TJ’s right, as usual. Having Ethan as an official part of the family will just make it better than “real” family gatherings. Sure copious amounts of alcohol will be required, but we’ll all be in pain from laughter. Especially when you see that video TJ sent me of Ethan whipping his hair. It’s an instant classic!

        This is a brilliant thing you’ve done, Wave. 🙂

        Anyway, I hear those two talking in the bedroom, so I’d better go in there and settle their asses down. G’nite all.

        • “Especially when you see that video TJ sent me of Ethan whipping his hair. It’s an instant classic!”

          Waiting patiently for a link to this…….Oh and Ethan, maybe you can’t dance, but somehow I believe you’ve got great rhythm 😉

          Wonder what my dreams will be like after this thread – yikes! Nite all.

      • “Now I must follow grandpa to bed!”

        That wasn’t at all a leading comment, lol. Thanks for sayin’ you loved my goof TJ. That made me feel all warm inside. : )

  • Ohhh, I can just picture Meat’s first album. You could call it “Man” or “Hot” or …. Nope. Not going there. I think I just about crossed my own line. 😀

    Seriously though, I’ll look forward to the posts. Ethan’s sense of humour in his previous guest appearances is always something I enjoy.

  • Look what’s happening when my clock is seven hours ahead. I went to bed with 28 comment. Now – 130.

    Damn! I missed all the fun.

  • “H: 🙂 wonderful news 🙂
    W: I’m not sure yet for whom. We’ll have to wait and see. :)”

    LOL We didn´t have to wait much: wonderful for everybody. I will count this as the first (MEAT) Ethan´s post (with a little help from everyone) 🙂

  • Wonderful news! Looking forward to Ethan’s posts. He never fails to make me laugh no matter what kind of day I’m having (as his comments here illustrate). Great idea, Wave.

  • Okay, see what I miss when I take a day off? Mass hysteria and hilarity — balls, boy bands, BUXOM, daddies, monkey business, flinging hair and big packages.

    I want into whatever you boys are doing. I can manage MEAT. Hmmmm…not sure that sounds right. 🙂 And I am expert in weighing balls, so just let me know when and where and I’ll bring my new digital scale. 😉

    • Lynn
      I’m sorry but you should know that this site is never predictable and you can’t take a whole day off.

      I did what I thought was a very “professional” post about Ethan’s new role, and then the whole thing exploded in my face. You will have to take him in hand. That doesn’t sound right – maybe Buda should take Ethan in hand. 🙂 He’s already weighing, testing, tasting and tenderly massaging some merchandise for his post. 🙂 I can’t wait for it and he’d better not disappoint me. You could have a key role doing the comparables. lol.

      I don’t know that you want to be part of a tour band called MEAT. I think you lack some basic equipment. 😉

      Clearly I have lost control over everything so I’m handing Ethan over to you guys. I have this picture in my mind of him flinging his hair from side to side. OMG.

  • Golly, there was no way I could keep up with this thread. Although I stopped randomly and saw a message from Cole… something about monkeys’ faces!!! This is gonna be a house of fun!

  • Well, that was absolutely freaking hysterical! I am so sorry I missed the fun last night. Wave, it was a brilliant idea to bring Ethan on – although we need to make sure he isn’t in here playing all the time when he should be writing books!!!

    “We’re not usually this crazy. I’m the sedate one and I don’t allow any funny monkey comments here.”

    I’m afraid I’m going to have to call you out on that one, babe. You’re just as crazy as the rest of them! I LOVE THIS SITE!!! So fun!

    Ethan, I’m so glad we get to hear from you on a regular basis. You crack me up! And LiF? Surpassed all my very high expectations. Its your best book yet, in my opinion. Loved it!!!!!

    • Hiya Lisa! Apart from Wave, you were the only other person to threaten life and limb if things hadn;t worked out so well for Boone and Wade, lol. Happy to see there are currently no hits out on me. : )

      • No hits Ethan – I would only maybe break your legs. You need your hands for typing!!! Wave was crying about LiF being too long, but I would have been happy with another 300 pages! Awesome! Oh, I like your new web site – are you going to update this one? LOL

        • “I like your new web site – are you going to update this one? LOL”

          LOL! Yes. Reese will actually be doing the updates about once or twice a month when I send her a list. Therefore the site will remain fresh.

          The blog is all on me though : ) But it’s really easy to use, that makes chances good I’ll keep up with it.

  • Wave, huge kudos to you for doing this. You’re going to make all the Ethanites very, very happy!

    And we’re going to have to move Ethan’s Play House — or is that Ethan’s Mad House — here as well.

    This is gonna be a riot… it already is.

    And seriously, how the hey am I supposed to get any reviews written, books read, files moved or proofing done? I’m going to descend into the world of Ethan and never get out. 😉

    • Ethan’s Barbie Dream House! I’m kickin’ that bitch out and stealing Ken…unfortunately we’ll have to get him a strap-on – thanks to that evil castrating Mattel but he’ll look so pretty hanging on my arm. : )

      • Oh the visions those words conjure.
        Y’know, sometimes I think you’re like a magician… pulling words out of the air and turning them into really awesome–and sometimes, just a teensy-weensy, um… not scary… uh, Fascinating–visuals

      • Ethan’s Barbie Dream House! I’m kickin’ that bitch out and stealing Ken…unfortunately we’ll have to get him a strap-on – thanks to that evil castrating Mattel but he’ll look so pretty hanging on my arm. : )

        Jesus. That was so Boone! 🙂

  • Thank you Wave for letting Ethan come over to play here. Ethan keeps me laughing till all I do is smile…LOL. And, remember people, wearing body glitter doesn’t necessarily make you look “hot”…LOL.

  • Hey Wave, Yes Ethan baby and I are indeed writing something together – it’s gonna be awesome… and I’ll definitely be stopping by more often!! I’ve had an insane quarter at work but I’m determined to make 2011 the year of writing dangerously (or at least furiously!)

    • Hi Geoff,

      When I heard that you and Ethan were working together on a project I was so happy! I can’t wait to read the amalgamation of your two amazing imaginations 🙂 . I’m sure it will be incredible, as well as the next Fathom Five (which I can’t wait to read)!

    • Geoff
      Of the two of you I don’t know who is crazier. The melding of your two minds is really scary. When is your first collaboration set to hit? I’m not sure that my heart will be able to take the power surge of adrenalin.
