On Agents
I’ll say right up front: I don’t have a lot of experience in this business. It’s true. My book sales in category have been fast (thank God!) but I haven’t been around all that long. That said, this post is coming from my perspective and there will be other people who have more/deeper/different insight. So, […]

“Paranormals are great to study, because they make all the metaphors real. Do you feel like you might die, you love him so much? Well, in a paranormal, you very well might, as it’s likely he’s some kind of scary thing with fangs who might chomp on you. Paranormal characters have the advantage on non-paranormal […]
Read the Rest »Adding the Sparkle, or, The Very Best Part
I’m sort of between projects right now (new contract means writing some synopses. And also I’m waiting for something sekrit that I will share with you later) so I was struggling to think of a craft post to write. Usually, I blog about what I’m dealing with in my writing personally, and try to reinforce […]
Read the Rest »One Night In Paradise and Good News
Remember that time you were in the book shop thinking: If only I could find a nice friends to lovers book, set partly in Thailand, that features a billionaire alpha male coffee shop owner who gets left at the altar and takes his pleasingly round, cupcake baking best friend on his honeymoon (platonic, of course!) […]
Read the Rest »Finding Ways to Find (and manage) the Time
To my eternal annoyance, there’s only so much of it in a day. I would take several more hours, kthxbai. (although, I heard it said once that if we had more hours in the day, we’d waste them too. But I maintain that IS NOT TRUE. *looks at Twitter*) Regardless, we only have those 24 […]
Read the Rest »The Call of Duty
(Not the kind where you get extra points for a head shot!!) I just got the cover for A Royal World Apart, the first book in my The Call of Duty series, starting release in the UK in July (December US). Some of you may remember the man I oft referred to as Untouched Hero. […]

I like to live in my writing cave. My writing cave is awesome. And it is insulated from the world, so that’s nice. But occasionally I do have to let my mind wander outside of it and…*gasp* even wander into the future, which is something I REALLY don’t like to do. I’m an In the […]
Read the Rest »Mr. Personality and an Epic Post
I’m so pleased to say that this morning my editor gave final approval on Mr. Personality, my 15th Presents! Details to come. I’m starting on my next Presents already and it’s inspired somewhat by the show White Collar…at least…my heroine is. My hero is Russian and like something out of an old Gothic novel which…across […]
Read the Rest »What Just Happened?
So, I was in Chicago (Well, Rosemont, by the airport, which, FYI is NOT the same) at the Romantic Times Convention and I am exhausted, and happy, and filled with Chicago style pizza. It was a very interesting conference in that I got to do TWO things I find awesome: I got to interact, not […]
Read the Rest »Romantic Times….Here I Come!
Tomorrow morning bright and early (less than 24 hours from now!) I’ll be in the air, on my way to Chicago for my very first taste of the Romantic Times Book Lovers Convention! I’m really excited because…because how can you NOT be excited!? It’s going to be a convention filled with readers AND writers and…books! […]
