    Sorry, we had appointments this morning.  I just now got my first cup of coffee. Life is a bit of a mess right now, but we’re hanging in there. All right then, first news, then some sort of snippet. Bouda Babes The Bouda Babes T-shirts are now available on Zazzle in a variety of sizes…

    Katherine emailed with a link to this article: Amazon Signs Up Authors, Writing Publishers Out of Deal and asked if wouldn’t be easier and less stressful to go this route.  It is an interesting article and a good question.  While I understand that for some writers there is certain allure to it, especially if your…

  • Today is the PSA Day

    A small E-Press goes up in flames.  Read this, it will make your hair stand on end.  Read more… This is inexcusable.  Sadly, even if the authors can file a class action suit against the publisher, I don’t really know if the money would ever be recovered.  I have a feeling it wouldn’t.  I don’t…

    Today is the official release day for Angels of Darkness. It has an Alphas novella in it.  If you are going to get it, please be aware that it doesn’t read like Kate Daniels of Edge series.  It is darker, grimmer, and the voice is different. I am down in the dumps this morning, so…

    So Nancy, our long-suffering agent, looked at the cover and said no.  It was too crisp, the font was too hard-SF, the name did not stand out enough, and it in general did not look “blended” enough. (Translation:  I know you can do better. Make it pretty.) Yeah, that shortcut with the space where I…

    Okay I am not screwing with it any further. I am sending it off to the agent and unless we get a resounding OMG NO, this will be the cover.  Phhhh.

  • The demise of Borders as discussed on the Daily Show.

    Ilona and I were saddened by the recent news of Borders impending closure.  I liked going in there, in fact I prefer them to B&N, they always seemed to have a better selection, but were also oddly disorganized.  Honestly, the books in our room are at least arranged in alphabetical order.  Going in was always…

    So, do you want the good news, or the bad?  I always want the bad news, which in this case is that there will not be Kate 6 until Feb. 2013.  That is of course if we do not all perish in the predicted 2012 disaster scenario.  That would be worse news.  The good news…
