I’m Now on Tumblr

Just because I didn’t have enough social media whatchamathingies to keep me busy, I’ve also signed up for a Tumblr blog. Actually, the idea of Tumblr appeals to me a good deal, just because I find that lots of things catch my eye, but posting about them here or on Facebook or Twitter just doesn’t seem quite right. I have a tendency to download lots of images when I’m researching a book or working on a cover design, and some of them are pretty fun. This way I can put them...

Bits and Pieces

Just a few bibs and bobs — first off, I’d like to say congratulations to Cathy in California, who is the winner of my Valentine Blog Hop giveaway. She’ll receive a $25 Amazon gift card and a print copy of Heart of Gold. If you’d still like a chance at a free copy of the book, go on over to Joanne Renaud’s blog and comment on my interview there before midnight, February 16. Also, I’m happy to say that Heart of Gold is now available in the iTunes store for...

The Bad Vibrations Magical Mystery Tour

Because I’m offering Bad Vibrations for free on February 12-13 (to celebrate my anniversary!), I thought it might be fun to create a sort of travelogue of the places mentioned in the book. I tend to be a very visual writer, so I have these images in my head as I’m writing (especially if I’m writing about places I’ve been or at least driven by). However, just because I know what they look like doesn’t mean you do — although if I’ve done my job right, you...

No Return…and Why I Decided to Repackage It

Before I go any further, No Return is free on February 4th, 2012. Go forth and download. Okay, now that we have that out of the way, I thought I’d talk a little bit about the book and why it’s now a part of my catalogue, as it had actually been out and about on Lulu, Amazon, and Barnes and Noble for some time before that. When I wrote No Return, I had just come out of a major writing slump. Huge. We’re talking almost seven years where I hardly did any writing. Yes, you read...

Heart of Gold Is Now Available!

I am so happy to announce that my latest full-length novel, Heart of Gold, has now been released! This was my 2009 NaNoWriMo project (okay, some books take me longer than others to finish!), a steampunk/gaslight fantasy romance that was so much fun, I’m already working on the sequel! (All right, more of a tie-in than a sequel, because I firmly believe that all my books should stand on their own, although some are interconnected through various characters or through the world itself.)...
