I have some upcoming events. 

September 17 from 6-10 pm US Eastern time I'll be on the Dreamspinner Goodreads thread.

On October 8 I'll be part of an author chat on LoveRomanceCafe noon to 6 pm US Eastern.

Come join me, it'll be great fun!

The second book of the Sentries series has been purchased and is slated for publication with Dreamspinner Press this autumn.

Check out the excerpt.

And the winners are:

For the ebook: Savannah Stagg
For the Mug: Nancy Carbajal


Congrats guys, I'll be sending you an email shortly!


Starting Sunday, May 22, 2011 Marked Yours will be the feature book on SJD Peterson's site. She'll be putting up an excerpt, an interview and eventually a review (I hope she likes it!)


In celebration I'll be giving away a copy of an ebook of Marked Yours and an etched glass mug with images from the cover that I make.

Here's how to enter the drawing. Go to SJD's site HERE and take a look around. Come back and leave me a comment about anything there you find interesting. Let me know in your comment if you want to be in the ebook drawing or the mug drawing or both. 

At the end of the week, Monday May 30, 2011 (one week after release) I'll draw two names, one for the book and one for the mug. The winners will be contacted sometime that Monday.

To claim the eBook you'll need to make yourself a membership on Dreamspinner Press site. It's free and they never sell any emails.

Dreamspinner does this cool thing, well I think it's cool...lol Anyway the day your book releases you can have an online release party on their blog.

Yee haaa!

There will be free stuff given away. At least one copy of Marked Yours in eBook and I'm working on some other things.

I have an entire day to ramble on all over their blog.

So...um...what do I say?

Any questions about Marked Yours, or me, or how I write (warning that might be a bit scary) or any suggestions of what I might fill my blog time with?

The blog is HERE  if you want to check it out. I've read through a lot of the posts for ideas and it really is fun.

In the last week I've received a contract from Dreamspinner Press for a novella I submitted titled Strays. It'll be out late summer. The art requests for both it and Marked Yours have been sent in and two rounds of edits for Marked Yours done and returned.

Feels good!

The fact I'd have such a say in the cover art for my book came completely out of left field for me. It's fun and exciting and scary! They want me to pick? Good grief it took me six months to decide on carpeting once, how the heck am I to pick things for a book cover.

I hope my artist, and bless this kind soul whoever he/she turns out to be, I hope they don't think I'm completely nuts.

This is pretty cool, I'm supposed to decide between drawn or photo art, I pick drawn, so one decision down...go me!

Other things I have to write up for the artist are what I'd like to see on the cover, some favorite scenes and imagery.

Gah!

Double Gah!

I'm probably rambling on and giving them way more than they ever wanted to know.

Chat Time


I'm so excited I finally have updates to share.

My novel, working title Marked Yours, comes out in May with Dreamspinner Press.

This evening I'm participating in an author chat sponsored by a Yahoo group Love Romances Cafe. It's for anyone, writer or reader interested in erotica/romance novels of all sorts. Has something for everyone.

I posted an excerpt from my novel, it was the scariest thing EVER.

And...
