It’s Only XXXX Days…
It’s that time of year again – the time when we are all playing the waiting game. The holidays are behind us and summer vacation is a long way off, and as such, we watch the calendar and count down the days until what we are waiting for is here.

Romance Novelists’ Day Out!
A few weekends ago, I went to go see the Fashioning Fashion exhibit at the LACMA, with a bunch of romance novelists.

Process Stories

Countdown…
Holy cats, February has been flying, right? Flying so fast that, I looked at my calendar and saw that Revealed’s mass market release is a mere week away! Revealed was originally released a year ago, in trade format. This means, for those of you who missed it the first time around, can now find it again at your local bookstore, at a highly reasonable mass market rate. Continue reading
