As many of you already know, the other day, I posted a snippet from the stepback of THIS SIDE OF THE GRAVE (haven't seen it? Here it is) because I'm not allowed to show the whole cover yet. I got a lot of comments from people saying they enjoyed that, and a few comments from readers saying a … [Read more...] about Snippets ahoy!
Edits, links, rumors, book trailer, and excerpts
I can't believe it's Friday already. Week, where have you gone? Aside from a nagging headache that just doesn't want to leave, it's been a good week, though. On Wednesday I received my edits on THIS SIDE OF THE GRAVE. Good news - they weren't extensive.

Just looked at the calendar and realized it's been over two weeks since I blogged. Time, she is a-flyin'.

Romantic Times convention, a story in pictures
Got back Tuesday night from the Romantic Times convention in Columbus, OH. Yes, trains take a lot longer than flying, but they're worth it for my peace of mind.

The Tao of “no”
Being an introvert, I've met more people through online venues in the past four years since I sold my novels than I have in the decade before it. Some of my closest Real Life friends are people I first met online, and now I wonder how I ever managed without them. Then there friends I first met … [Read more...] about The Tao of “no”
