Volvo earlier announced that its new flagship ‘Executive’ model, so far the most luxuriously equipped product, has been added to the all-new Volvo S80 saloon range. The car is priced at £38,415 and the deliveries have started since last week of January.

The Volvo S80 ‘Executive’ model enters the auto scene with dynamic design language, improved ergonomics, powerful performance and world-class safety. The car is delivered with the aim of attracting the most demanding car aficionados. “The all new S80 is entering an immensely tough sector where the competition is razor-sharp and the customers have very high expectations. We are now challenging the best in the segment with a very special car. It radiates what we call ‘Scandinavian Luxury’, clean and elegant lines and intelligent functionality where every single detail has been designed with the user’s well-being in mind,” said Fredrik Arp, President and CEO of Volvo Cars.

“We are convinced that the all new Volvo S80 will be a very strong contender in its class and win over many new customers considering the other well loved premium brand rivals. We expect to sell 50,000 new S80s a year around the world, of which 70 per cent will be new Volvo customers,” said Frederik Arp, Volvo Cars CEO.

At the launch of the first generation Volvo S80, the automaker flaunted bold design that mirrors the automaker’s new design direction. But, the Swedish automaker did not entertain a halt. Its pool of designers cleverly entertained a sweeping auto styling innovation that evokes youthful and dynamic design language plus Volvo safety technology.

“The all new S80 is about evolutionary design,” said Steve Mattin, Volvo Cars design director. “All the shapes and materials it uses represent a continuous development of the Volvo design language. We have given the all new S80 a more youthful and dynamic stance, and made an even more inviting atmosphere by using refined materials and colors that blend smoothly with smart, user-friendly technology. ”

The Volvo S80 ‘Executive’ offers distinctive Scandinavian design, a superb ride and handling, innovative technology and an brilliant level of comfort. It is the latest proof that the automaker can evolve dramatically. Gone were the days of the aging Volvo 850 parts. It is high time to experience Volvo metamorphosis.

The Volvo S80 ‘Executive’ also features bespoke Executive badging, chrome accents, unique 18in alloy wheels, a refrigerator in the rear, walnut wood inlays, a Dynaudio Premium Sound, Personal Car Communicator with Keyless Drive, RTI and heated front and rear seats. The Executive’s extensive options specification include an integrated dual band or a Bluetooth telephone and Volvo’s latest generation Rear Seat Entertainment (RSE) with DVD player located in the front centre armrest, and two seven inch screens in the rear of the front head restraints and two cordless headphones. The Volvo S80 Executive also offers 3 powerful engines – the D5, 3. 2 (front wheel drive or All Wheel Drive) and V8 AWD, all with six-speed Geartronic transmission as standard.

I am often questioned, “How do you it? Where do you find the time to work a full time job and also write books?” The answer is simple. I make the time. But simple the answer might be, really doing it can be quite hard. I get up at 5:15 every morning. The first thing I do is turn on my computer, and log into my office. I am the network administrator for an international shipping company. That means I have to make sure everything is working properly before anyone else logs into the system. I do what I need to do there, and then I exercise. Yes, that’s right, sit-ups, touching my toes (which I can still do!) buttock tucks, the whole nine yards. After that, I get myself ready for work. Without fail, I meditate before I have breakfast. I credit my meditation practice with training me to have the concentration I need to write. After I eat, I leave for work. I place in a full day, doing what network administrators do. Computers are my life at the office. I do anything and everything that needs to be done to keep an office of more than fifty people running smoothly. We also have international users that remotely log into our network. Part of my job is to make sure they are connecting properly, too. Once I get home, I have some dinner. Then, I start my writing workday. Weekday evenings, I try to place in a few hours at the computer before going to bed. If I need help shifting out of the problems of my workday, I use music. I have a Bose Sound Machine and wireless headphones that help me shut out the world and get into my writing space. I reread a page or two of what I last wrote and hope that the next line will come. It usually does. The lion’s share of the writing happens on weekends. I usually spend at least twelve hours on Saturday and Sunday at my computer. Sometimes, it can be longer. On Monday morning, the cycle starts over again. Oh, yes, I took a week’s vacation to work on Take Me There. I had an April 15th deadline. I lost some ground last February when I got the flu and couldn’t write if my life depended on it! I had a fever of 103. 4, the highest fever of my adult life! To catch up, I place in nine consecutive twelve to fifteen hour days working on my manuscript. I only stopped to go back to work on Monday, and to do the blogging week for Romantic Inks. Come Saturday, I will be back in the harness. Now comes the real question! How do I do it? As I’m writing this, I’m thinking no one is going to believe I keep this schedule. But I do. I’ve been doing it for nearly two years now, since I signed my first contract with Kensington. Once I hit the two year mark in June, I will have written three novels and two novellas budgeting my time as I do. I haven’t missed a deadline yet, not even when my mother passed away last June. I came home from the funeral with page proofs waiting for Sins and Secrets. I plunged in, read and corrected them. There is a single driving force behind how I manage this. I am a writer. That is different than being an author. Being an author is an occupation. Being a writer is a vocation. The intangible something inside that compels me to write is not at all comfortable. The words don’t start in my mind. They seem to well up from my chest. Sometimes it feels like an alien is about to burst out. I fully expect one day Sigourney Weaver will show up in her Ripley costume, gun in hand, ready to take me out! No matter how tired I am, and trust me, I do get tired, I have to write. The alien inside me needs to be appeased, or it will eat me alive! I am amused by the number of people who have said to me that someday, they’re going to write a book. The only way to write a book is to sit down and do it! Procrastination does not a novel make. It doesn’t matter if it’s a blank page, or a white screen from Microsoft Word on a monitor, it has to be filled with words. Those words are the writer’s responsibility. No one is going to do it for you. You have to do it yourself. Of course, along with the fire that burns in the heart of a writer, there also has to be technical skill. To become a published author, you have to not only want to write, you have to be able to write. It astonishes me at times when I meet people who can’t place three sentences together in a coherent paragraph and expect to get published. The competition is extraordinary. You have to be excellent to get published. Period! End of tale! Talent notwithstanding, you have to also be willing to do what I’m doing. There aren’t many published authors these days who can make a living wage writing. Certainly, I’m not one of them, at least not yet. That’s why I get up at 5:15 everyday. I have to pay my bills. So, to finally answer the question I’ve been questioned so many times, that’s how I do it. My way isn’t for everyone. But it’s working for me. I have the books to prove it!
