Friday contest
So I promised I'd do another contest this week, and looks like I'll get it in just under the wire. Whew! All the stuff that's kept me busy almost made a liar out of me.

Weekend update – with contest
Slightly stunned that it's the weekend already. Is 2010 flying by for anyone else, too? This past week, I read through galley pages of Eternal Kiss of Darkness, making small changes that seem imperative to me but few others will probably notice.

This was both thrilling and unexpected because spinoffs generally … [Read more...] about Awesome news and podcast
Book release, relaxing, and very nice news
So as most of you know, last week my fifth novel, First Drop of Crimson, released. You'd think that five times into this whole "book on the shelves" thing I'd be blase about releases, but I was just as much of a bundle of nerves for this book as I was for my first one. This time, however, I did … [Read more...] about Book release, relaxing, and very nice news
