Booksquare

I’d just hit “publish” on Booksquare to post the first bit about the road trip when my e-mail icon began to bounce. The instructions on how to login and do the live chat on writerspace.com had arrived. And here come the nerves! Why I’m getting nervous, I don’t know. No one can see my still […]

Wow, real life has gotten in the way for the past two days, but was able to snatch a few minutes to work on my writing. When we bought the car I’m driving now, there was the option to buy one of those nifty navigational systems. Option being the operative word – we opted out. […]

Have we dwelled on agents and what they do recently? We confess, we have a rather romantic view of literary agents. We see them as the ones who feed and nurture their talented clients. Lots of chicken soup, lots of creative banter. Hmm, it is quite possible that we are confusing literary agents with movies […]

First, we’d like to thank everyone who saw the Tom Wolfe story and immediately thought of us. We’re not sure if we’re honored or creating the wrong impression. Probably honored but concerned as it’s clear this topic is much more up Jill’s alley than ours. We cannot pretend to understand what goes on in another […]

Now, we’re not the type to make fun of our fellow humans…oh, right, we are. It’s what keeps us going. If we didn’t have our species to enjoy, we’d have to make fun of cats*. Since we think shopping online is the greatest invention since the Gutenberg press, we like to think we have expertise […]

The great ladies at eHarlequin have set me up, and I now have my own official topic! “When Seduction Goes BAD” Okay, I have the same kind of fears I did with my first signing. No one shows up, but I won’t have to worry about distributors or giving directions to the bathroom. eHarlequin also […]

This week I’m going to be doing a lot of talking. Actually, it’s a lot of typing. Somehow I scheduled my two promo moments for the exact same week. This is the last week my kids are in school before break – so doing it now sounded like a smart idea at the time. Now […]

It is rare that we come to the defense of Wal-Mart, but there you have it. Setting aside the fact that it’s a rare child who reaches the age of 13 without hearing swearing, it is impossible to know the contents of each and every album and book in a store (and we know that […]

The sign beckoned as I was going to where else? Sonic (I start every morning with a diet cherry coke). Gas is finally down. A buck fifty-five. This means one thing: Road Trip!! Gena Showalter and I can finally make to Tulsa for that stock signing excursion. I’d never heard of this phrase until recently. […]

I’ve been told to get another author head shot because the picture is a lie. My whole life, I’ve lamented on having curly hair, dimples and forced to shop for clothes that have the letter “P” after the number. To be honest, long-legged with straight (ultra-straight) blonde hair always seemed to be the ideal. To […]
