Caroline and I leave Monday for a 10 day trip to New York and D.C., and I’m pissing myself excited about it. Initially, though, I’d thought I’d schedule some events, signings and such, which didn’t pan out, primarily because, well, Seattle is a long way from New York and since this whole writery thing happened, [...]
Yes, I realize that title could be about me, what with my struggles (cue violins), but not this time. Nope. Today’s contest is all about Rob Thurman (insists she’s not a man), the author of the Cal Leandros urban fantasy series, or so I’m told–haven’t read them, though I’m certain they’re adequate–I kid, it’s at [...]
Wow. It’s 7:30 pm here in the great Pacific Northwest and I’m nearly done in. Yep. Today was the launch for Battle of the Network Zombies and I’ve been spread super thin between vlogging and fielding questions on guest posts and loading crap onto YouTube. Arggh.
Anyways…Battle is out, go get it if you like zombie [...]
After a weekend full of romance, and by “romance” I mean back-breaking labor, it’s nice to get some nice reviews and contests and stuff thrown in your book’s honor. But we’ll get to that in a second. Here’s what I’ve been up to.
1. Painting. For Valentines Day, Caroline and I opted for sore muscles followed [...]
1. Don’t forget to sign up for the League Reading Challenge at Literary Escapism. In an attempt to get people reading new authors in the genre, the League has teamed up with Literary Escapism and ponied up tons of prizes. Go. Sign up. Now!!!
2. I’m still fouling up copies of my books at University Bookstore. [...]
Yes folks. Release Day/Week/Month/59 Days is upon us. Happy Hour of the Damned is trickling into your back pockets from bookstores all over the place (or so I’m reading on twitter and such). And there are tons of events going on to promote the release. Yesterday’s Twitter explosion was very nearly overwhelming thanks in [...]
How awesome is Thom? A while back, he popped onto a blog I was guesting and asked me to share my dream casting for my books. Apparently with a specific agenda in mind…
So needless to say, I was squeeful when I got my greedy little hands on this nugget.
Can you guess who’s who? Correct answers [...]
Apparently, copies of the mass-market paperback edition of HAPPY HOUR OF THE DAMNED have started hitting store shelves (at least in Canada), so I’m taking a short break from revising the young adult book to revisit the beginning of the zombie smut movement (that was not a bowel joke, presumably). A ton of stuff has [...]
Does anyone remember a while back when I spilled the beans that there’d been a request for proposals about the sequel to Pride and Prejudice and Zombies and that I put together some sample pages amidst the madness of the Romantic Times Convention in Orlando, thereby stressing me out to the point of near constant [...]
Caroline started taking down Christmas today, which is a funny phrase, like she brought out the boxes with the intention of stripping our house of spirit. That’s just silly, of course, since we all know the only thing that can strip the spirit out of you is writing a YA manuscript, but that’s another story [...]
