I Haven't Forgotten You

Happy Friday All,

Sorry I was gone on Thursday. No, I hadn't forgotten the blog, or you, my dear readers. I've been really busy this week and so blogging has fallen by the wayside. But today is not quite so busy.

Robin Badillo newest Blood Hunter book is now available on Amazon Kindle. She and her vampires are becoming quite close from the looks of things. She also has a non-vampire romance out called Whiskey Road.

Currently I'm reading Lady Of Quality by Georgette Heyer...the same book Kathy at Beadmore Designs used as inspiration for the last day of the Great Jewelry Giveaway. I haven't gotten very far into it, yet, but so far the character of Annis Wychwood is very spirited, as is one of my favorite Georgette Heyer female characters.

Right now I don't have any major plans for this weekend...there's a few things that might happen, but we have decided, yet.

So, what have you been up to and what do you have planned for the weekend?

Get Thee A Nom De Plume!

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...
