No Smilies, Day Two

Giveaways, Life in Motion, My Book Stuff

Since I’m still without smilies due to Evil Angie, I thought I’d tease y’all with one of the books I’m giving away as part of the prize package in exchange for return of my smilies. So if you want to win this book, you’ll have to let Angie know how brilliant she is (gag) in the post below .

NOTHING PERSONAL is a contemporary romance releasing from Samhain Publishing on March 13th. I’ll be giving away a download of this book to one lucky winner. It’s only fitting to give away this book, since Evil Angie edited it. *grin*

Here’s the blurb and a little excerpt from the book

Life in Motion

My birthday yesterday was great. The milestone passed without too much pain (other than snarky phone calls from one of my sons, my older brother and a lot of ribbing from Biker Dude, but that was expected :loser: ). I had a wonderful day, got some great pressies, didn’t do a damn thing work related, watched the Daytona 500, went out to dinner and now it’s over, thankfully. Back to work.

I didn’t do any writing this weekend, because these copyedits for Hunting the Demon are due back to Bantam this week, so I want to get that finished first. I’m hoping to rip through those and get them done, then jump back on the Fast Draft train as soon as I get copyedits out of the way. I don’t want to stall my writing progress, though, which means I have to hustle through the copyedit process and get those done without stopping. I made a lot of progress this weekend, so maybe I can finish those up today. Hopefully.

So this week’s list:

1. Finish copyedits for Hunting the Demon

2. Jump back into Fast Draft for Riding Wild, and hopefully get that book finished (ha. We’ll see)

That’s it and all I’m doing this week.

What’s on your agenda? Anyone else starting Fast Draft to get those mega daily pages? I can always use company, ya know.

The Weekend in Review (With Pictures) and The Week Ahead (aka The To Do List)

Life in Motion, My Book Stuff

The Booksigning at Barnes & Noble Friday night was great! Well attended and B&N did a fabulous job. I had a great time and we almost ran out of Surviving Demon Island, which was a very good thing.

Pic above is me, PC Cast and Elle James. (don’t ask about that expression on my face. I blame Biker Dude, the photographer, for not capturing me in a good moment.)

And speaking of Biker Dude, does he clean up well or what? :love:

Saturday morning was puppy grooming day. Thank God, because the little beasties really needed a haircut. They’ve been harboring small pine trees in their fur. I think they must crawl on their bellies when they go outside. But aren’t they cute?

That’s Bella on the left and Jaz on the right.

And I even managed to get a little writing done on the weekend.

So, enough of that.

This week, I’m letting one of my characters run amok. Yes, probably not a good idea, but you know how they rule my life. Gina from Surviving Demon Island has decided that she’s going to sound off over on Magical Minxes from now on. She, along with other fabulous paranormal vixens, will be baring their souls (let’s hope that’s all they bare) every week. Please go check them out. I’ll have to keep a very close eye on her.

Now for this week’s to do list:

1. Write like hell on Riding Wild because ye olde deadline is looming in a big way. :hide:

2. Keep an eye on Gina over on Magical Minxes

3. Try to remember that Wednesday is Valentine’s Day. :heart:

Clearly that’s enough to do this week. What’s on your agenda?
