I just found out YOUR MOUTH DRIVES ME CRAZY is a finalist in the Hot, Sexy, Sensuous category of the 2008 Desert Rose Golden Quill. Yay!!!
Now that’s a good way to end a week.

Barry Eisler is the author of the hugely popular action series starring the tortured hero John Rain. Eisler came to the Romantic Times Convention in Pittsburgh. I thought it was brilliant marketing. First, Eisler is a good looking guy with an interesting past (worked for the CIA). He writes sexy action [...]

First, TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT is now available for pre-order on Amazon. Notice how Amazon has, once again, misspelled my name. Grrr. Anyway…Yeah, it’s a Christmas antho. And, yeah, that’s a long time away. But the book releases on my birthday, so I think you should all pre-order it.
Second, [...]

Otherwise known as How I Almost (Accidentally) Stole A Book From The RT Bookfair. Let me explain my moment of true greatness…
Saturday morning was the RT Bookfair. It’s a grand event where 200 or so authors (it looks more like 3000) sit in a huge ballroom behind stacks of books and chat [...]

Alyssa (from Alyssa’s Book Blog) reviewed RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW and gave it 4.5 stars (out of a possible 5). She said lovely things, so I adore her. Actually, I pretty much adored her before this because she strikes me as a strong supporter of romance novelists, but now I just adore her [...]

I’m a Meg Cabot fan. Don’t read much of her YA stuff, but do read her adult titles. I enjoy her voice. It’s flirty and funny. My favorite series of hers is over. At least I think it’s over. It’s the one with these titles: SIZE 12 IS [...]

It’s Friday and…
I’m thinking we all need a giveaway. I have no idea why, but I think we do.
I’m giving away two copies of RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW. The only catch - there’s always a catch, isn’t there? - is that you have to post a comment/mini-review of the book [...]
