Christmas at our house was like the “Gift of the Magi,” except, not stupid. Hubby and I, we bought each other video games. Two sets of video games, and only one PS3. ::sigh:: Anyway, We’ve finally managed to play through our respective sets of games, and I thought I’d write…
Here’s something I just don’t get: RWA Contests. I’ve heard they’re a good way to get your novel noticed–especially when the prize is prime placement on an editor’s reading list. But, specifically, the judging seems counterintuitive. I’ve heard several stories of writers who entered contests–agented writers, writers who have been…
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…

Today’s the day! Like a Thief in the Night is out at Samhain Publishing. Go buy it. I’d like to write more, but I guess it figures that the day I’ve been looking forward to for 6 months would fall in the week the day the day job decides to…
A little bird reminded me I should be promoting Like a Thief in the Night and letting people know that this red hot futuristic tale of sex, murder, magic and mayhem will be available for sale at Samhain Publishing on January 15, 2008 for the low, low price of $3.50….
It’s true. I thought I was being all noble taking the bus home from work every day when I’ve a perfectly decent little gas guzzler sitting in the garage. It’s work, taking the bus in LA. Eight miles requires two buses and almost an hour of travel time, not including…
