Paks Vs. Dragonlance

Wow, this was close! I counted 5 Dragonlance votes and 6 for Paks (including one person who voted for both). I was leaning toward Dragonlance, so now we have a tie. And looky here:

That’s right, pristine and unread omnibus copies of both novels. How the heck did that happen? Well, I wore [...]

Excerpt and Page for Bloggers Posted

I did some site maintenance tonight, including posting an excerpt of The Sevenfold Spell and a page for data that book bloggers might find useful.

I opened up the comments on the excerpt page, so feel free to let me know what you think. I am preparing a PDF with a longer excerpt, and [...]

Recharging – Reread of an Old Favorite

I need to recharge. I’m having difficulty reading fantasy these days, and I have been reading historical fiction instead. When I finish with that novel, I’d like to reread an old favorite before tackling anything new. This is something I do every now and then, but I haven’t done lately because I’ve been reviewing [...]

This Week in Research

Sorry about the sporadic blogging. The heat here has been unbelievable, and we’ve now had a record number of 90 degree + days. Last summer, we were all talking about how mild it was, but this summer appears to be trying to make up for it. It has me downright lethargic.

Anyway, I find [...]

Debut Showcase – Week of August 15th

This is a quick post during a busy week for me, but I did want to let you know about these two debuts in particular.

The Last Page by Anthony Huso Tor Books Hardcover – 25.99

The city of Isca is set like a dark jewel [...]

Publicity Efforts

Since it is now less than two months until The Sevenfold Spell comes out, I have been ramping up my publicity efforts. I’ve scheduled two days off but I hope to put together a blog tour that will go on for at least a couple of weeks. Because I am only going to be [...]

My Publisher Rocks!

Maybe I’m just a pre-published ninny who is still all starstruck, but it occurs to me that Harlequin and Carina Press ROCKS. How so? Let me count the ways.

Ultra-rapid response time. Maybe this is just because I submitted a novella, and Angela James has said many times that she loves reading novella submissions. [...]

Debut Showcases for Early August

Due to my semi-hiatus, this is my first Debut Showcase in about a month. My apologizes for the authors I missed, but this is a blog, not a news source, so I’m just going to carry on with this week’s debuts. If you are curious about those missed debuts, just look on my debut [...]
