Random Stuff (that’s mostly boring)

My sister will spend money for food on books. She picked up BORN IN DEATH last night because, she said, she was walking by the bookstore and she saw it from the corner of her eye and HAD to get it. And then came home and asked me to transfer money to her account so that she could eat today.

I really need to send an e-mail to the berkleyjoveauthors.com site so they can update my bio/upcoming book thingy.

I need to get the contest winners’ books wrapped up and mailed (and Colleen’s!) That might not happen until Friday, though.

I probably won’t pick up the most recent JLA until Friday, either. *sob*

I got the corrected cover for WILD THING (w/o bestseller Meljean). Here’s a small version; here’s a huge version, in which you can see every detail of Nathan Kamp’s nips. That huge version is what my editor sends me, then I just make a bunch of different sizes to have ready to link to when I need it. Only this time, it took me forever to figure out why my browser said the pictures had errors (and why they were so many KBs, even small): they were in CMYK color. So I changed them all to RGB, and they worked.

Oh, and my editor loved my novella for WILD THING. I struggled a lot getting that one out, so that’s good to hear. There’s an excerpt up, btw, if you go here. No spoilers.

I’m still plugging away on the proposal, and I scared myself writing a scene two days ago. That’s a good thing, I think. I’m trying very, very, very hard to keep it simple this time, while still adding to the Guardian world and the overall storyline. I think it’ll work.

But I gotta get back to work.
