New site

 

I’m still putting the finishing touches on the latest, greatest incarnation of my website, but you can have a peek at it here. If you see any errors, drop me a line, or leave a comment to let me know. Some time in the next couple of weeks, I’ll add…

News and Reviews

 

News: Superfabulous and awesomely talented author Sherry Thomas (her debut novel, Private Arrangements is in my TFE – Top 5, Evah), interviewed me for her blog about fairy tales, badass heroines, and what I’m writing next. Reviews: Lynn Spencer at AAR (All About Romance) blog gave Cat’s Tale a “Desert-Island Keeper” Review. …Bettie…

Cat’s Tale Cover and Release Date

 

Wow. It’s a little more than a month before CAT’S TALE: A FAIRY TALE RETOLD will be available for purchase from Carina Press and many other fine e-tailers–I’d better get pimping. To the left, you will see the lovely, lovely cover done by the fabulous Frauke of Croco Designs.  I’ve…

Newsy News News News

 

Have I got news. First, my little mermaid short story, “Each Step Sublime” is going to be part of Jane Litte’s Agony / Ecstasy anthology to be published by Berkley in Fall 2011.  There are some fabulous authors included (see link for list). I’m giddy and grateful to be part…

Terra Obscura: Part 1

WordPress!

 

I’ve been meaning to move the blog over to WordPress for the longest time now. Figures I’d get the gumption to do it the same weekend I vow to buckle down and wrap up a proposal I’m working on. Ah, procrastination. Anyway, here it is. I still have a bit…

Surfacing

 

Whew. The day job turned my brains to mush, and I left a few things hanging. For instance, the Create a Contest Contest. Isabelle Santiago is the winner, and her “What Kind of Thief are You” contest will run on February 12 with my guest post at Beyond the Veil….

Giggled: A Survivor’s Tale

 

First, a confession which may make me unpopular in certain authorial circles: I like Mrs. Giggles reviews. I’ve read them for quite a while, I’ve enjoyed almost every book I’ve read from her “keeper” list and I have, I’ll admit, giggled on more than one occasion at her jaded take…
