#Friday Happy Author Hour! Share a drink with your favorite #Authors! #HappyHour #writing Today with MJ Compton @Comptonplations

 Whether you're an author or not, you've heard it before: All authors drink. 


But what do they drink?

Happy Friday, darlings! How about sharing a drink with MJ Compton and the Toke Lobo wolves?




In my Toke Lobo & the Pack series, the werewolves are allergic to alcohol. It interferes with their liver function and prevents them from changing—even on the full moon. And yet, the pack owns a brewery: Moonsinger Beer. They do really well with Internet sales.
I like beer (Molson’s Golden), but my favorite quaff is wine. I tend to drink more red than white, but is there anything better on a hot summer day than a cold white wine? Especially if it has bubbles? My go-to sparkling wine is Chateau Frank’s Blanc de Noirs. For those who believe “champagne” should be saved for special occasions, I say this: “bubbles” makes every occasion special. Don’t you deserve it?
Chateau Frank is part of the Dr. Konstantin Frank Winery located in New York State’s Finger Lakes Region. Their wines win awards all over the world, most recently in the San Francisco Chronicle’s Wine Competition.


RECIPE
1 flute of sparkling wine per person
6 pomegranate arils per person
Drop the arils (seeds) into the wine. Enjoy!




AND JERICHO BURNED
 
Lucy Callahan will do anything to rescue her sister from a cult, even marry a werewolf she’s just met. But the werewolves are working undercover for the government, and Lucy fears a confrontation between the agents and the cult could be deadly.
Stoker Smith longs to be the best thing that ever happened to his human mate. He wants to take her home, start their family, and compose his music. And although his pack’s treaty with the government says he doesn’t have to work undercover now that he’s mated, he promised Lucy he’d get her sister out of the cult’s heavily armed compound. Lucy’s sister is now family and to a werewolf, family is everything.
But Operation Jericho quickly turns ugly, thrusting Lucy into the middle of her worst nightmare, where she must choose: her sister or her husband.

MJ Compton Bio

MJ Compton grew up near Cardiff, New York, a place best known for its giant, which turned out to be a fiction so incredible, PT Barnum himself borrowed it. That’s a tough act to follow, but MJ tried—by composing her own stories. 
Although her 30-year career in local television included such highlights as being bitten by a lion, preempting a US President for a college basketball game, giving a three-time world champion boxer a few black eyes, a mention in the Drudge Report, and meeting her husband, MJ’s urge to create her own stories never went away. 
MJ still lives in upstate New York with her husband. She’s a member of Romance Writers of America and Central New York Romance Writers. Music and cooking are two of her passions, and she enjoys baseball and college basketball, but she’s primarily focused on wine . . . and writing.
