On February 5, Demon Night — the fifth book in my Guardian series, featuring Drifter, an outlaw from the Old West turned hero, and the woman he has to protect from vampires — is going to be in stores. But I’m not the only one with a release this February 5th — Joey Hill has […]
AAR’s Annual Poll is still ongoing (until mid-February). Apparently, voting is slowing down early — don’t forget to cast your vote for your favorite book of 2007 (but, uh, not just that favorite book, because you have to enter several categories, and straight-ticket ballots are deleted, I think.) Okay, and this is interesting — it […]
Lisabea’s having a contest at her wonderfully entertaining blog, Nose in a book! Details here.
Because more is ALWAYS good. This is a quick roundup of links (usually posts that have links to other discussions, because no way can I get them all) — there are many people out there saying things much better than I could, and several discussions that are ongoing and fascinating. I’m still at the point […]
Or, however long it takes you to read it. Last year, Richelle Mead released SUCCUBUS BLUES (excerpt here), which was fantastic with a capital F. Part chick lit, part urban fantasy, and all a really, really great story. So I preordered a copy of the sequel from Amazon … and then Richelle was a sweetheart […]
From Newsarama: Most contests in the comic book business are geared toward artists. Shadowline, in partnership with Newsarama, is bucking the tide and creating a contest geared toward writers! According to Shadowline editor, Kristen Simon, “I’d been hoping to see a super-hero book with a strong female lead to act as a counter-point to our […]
Marjorie Liu has her cover up for her new urban fantasy series, IRON HUNT. Have I ever mentioned how much I love tattoo covers? I do. And, as I’m sure I’ve noted before, women’s backs. The New York Times has “The Geek Hierarchy” chart up (you might have to be a subscriber, but it’s free). […]
I was doing a little research and ran across this blog: Strange Maps. Holy crap. There are historical maps, fictional maps (Gotham City, anyone?), speculative maps (a post-Armageddon map), humorous maps (South America, made out of laundry), statistical maps (patient:doctor ratios by area) … all kinds of stuff. All with commentary, and a fascinating look […]
As part of a guest blogging post for the 2007 Love of Reading Book Fair, Jane from Dear Author had some really nice things to say about Demon Night. That early feedback is always the most frightening — after the book has been out a little while, you know what reactions have been so although […]
Of course I’m going to love a blog with such a title, and I’ve been lucky enough to be interviewed by the awesome Ilona Andrews (author of the equally awesome Magic Bites and slayer of plagiarists everywhere). I’m talking about the hotness of Batman and Nightwing … and, of course, the books.
It’s over at bam’s. Page edits went out last week, which means galleys are being made, which means ARCs for DEMON NIGHT will be coming within a month or two. So, one of those is being given away (although it wouldn’t actually be mailed out until I got it).
I was lucky enough to read an ARC of Caressed by Ice — and I loved it. I’ll talk more about it soon, but first is this fun quiz Nalini created … and I’m not too disappointed by the results. *g* There’s a contest attached to it; go here for details. Which Psy-Changeling Hero Is […]
I’m at The Good, The Bad, and the Unread today! We’re giving away copies of Demon Moon … and Missy pops her head in and takes over some of the GAD duties, because I’m busy with a deadline.
…were the numbers that random.org generated randomly. Dance Chica LesleyW Have both won my backlist! Thanks to everyone for playing and joining in the fun, and if you missed Colin’s answers to the Proust questionnaire, they’re still there. Other stuff: I’m the author of the month over at Vampireromancebooks.com! I have an interview up with […]
