Shorts

Happy Wednesday Folks,

Today is a series of "shorts" meaning short updates about different things.

I've emailed Elizabeth Pina the interview questions and when she replies with her answers I'll pick a day to put them up here.

I just finished reading Robin Palmer's YA novel, Geek Charming. It was a cute and fun retelling of The Frog Prince. She has some other novels out...her first one in this set being Cindy Ella. She also has a mid-grade book coming out.

REMINDER: The NWHRWA is having its annual Lone Star Contest. Be sure to click here to get details and information on the rules of entering. There's a price cut for early entries which ends in May.

If anyone hears about any other contests be sure to let me know so I can put them up on my blog.

Drum roll please...

Two authors I really like have new novels coming out:

Mystery writer, Laura Childs has another one of her Tea Shop Mysteries coming out this month. The book is called The Teaberry Strangler, which I will be getting as soon as I can (after it's released) because I've bought every single one of her Tea Shop Mysteries and read them all. (I even got my mom and one of my aunts into her series). She has 2 other Mystery series out: Scrapbooking Mysteries and The Cackleberry Club Mysteries.

The other author is Paranormal Romance author, Kerreyln Sparks, who's next novel in the Love At Stake series was to be released yesterday (March 9, 2010). The novel is called The Vampire And The Virgin. I've read most of the ones in that series and she has very witty dialogue and fun characters.

Anyway...as for myself I'm pretty caught up in what's going on with my uncle, who's not doing very well. Please keep him and his family in your thoughts and prayers. Thanks.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Have A Witty Wednesday!

Get Thee A Nom De Plume!

By
Good Evening One & All, Shakespeare wrote in Romeo & Juliet, "What's in a name?...A rose by any other name would smell as sweet." Disney talked about names in Aladdin in the lyrics, "Better get a nom de plume ." (the song, "One Jump"). So, for a writer, what does a nom de plume (or, pen name) say about the author? It could be a different spelling of the author's name, it could be a name that has a significance. They could keep their first name, but change the last, or change both. A pen name is also the name a writer will write under for his or her books. The name that his or her readers will recognize them. The name on the autographs and the one where people will say, "Oh yes, that's so and so, they wrote..." Some authors write under their own names. Others, for a variety of reasons, choose a pen name. What about you? Are you considering a pen name? What have you looked at when thinking of your nom de plume ? For myself, I&

Happy Tuesday All, ****CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED**** In honor of my birthday (that was on Oct. 15th) I am doing TWO give aways! The FIRST one is TODAY!  Today's give away is a copy of Kerrelyn Sparks' Sexiest Vampire Alive .

ONE entry PER person : If you choose to email in your entry: Email to this email ONLY .  Your email should state who your favorite vampire is. And no, it does NOT have to be one of Kerrelyn Sparks' characters, but that would be really cool if you DID mention one of hers.

It can be ANY vampire--but like I said, it would be really cool if you mention a Kerrelyn Sparks' vampire. You don't know Kerrelyn Spa
