August, Fall & Winter, New Release, And Pre-Order Galore!

Happy Monday All,

Also, HAPPY AUGUST! We're now getting closer to the Fall and students going back to school and (hopefully soon) cooler weather. Texas has been hot, but it generally is in the Summer. Fall and Winter are my favorite seasons because I love cooler weather and I'm a huge fan of Christmas. I can't wait to put up Christmas lights. Okay, so I'm a little early on the anticipation, but all these commercials for back-to-school items have brought out thoughts of the latter (and cooler) months as well as the holidays that go with them.

This past weekend I was doing some house cleaning (believe me, my house needs it). My dust allergies are acting up, but so far I've managed to avoid being laid up in bed with them, which is good.

There's some book reporting I need to do, so, without further ado...

Author A.S. Fenichel has an erotic Romance out through publisher Ellora's Cave called Mayan Afterglow.





Good news! You can pre-order C.C. Hunter's YA 2nd ShadowFalls novel, Awake At Dawn through Amazon and Barnes & Noble. (Releasing in October 2011). I can't wait to see what's going to happen with Kylie, Derek and Lucas. Are you Team Derek or Team Lucas?

Also available on pre-order is the second mid-grade Heroes Of Olympus novel by Rick Riordan entitled, Son Of Neptune. To pre-order this novel, go to Amazon and/or Barnes & Noble.






Christie Craig's adult Romance, Don't Mess With Texas is available this month! Don't forget to check your Amazon and Barnes & Noble for purchasing! This one looks like a lot of fun.

I have several novels on my list to read. If you look in the right hand margin of my blog you'll see what I'm reading at any given time. Currently I'm finishing up Lori Wilde's Addicted To Love (an Adult Contemporary Romance). It's pretty good.

What releases are you looking forward to and what books are you currently reading?

Have A Magnificent Monday!

I had just won and zipped-through MJ Davidson's latest 'Betsy ' book, "Undead and Undermined"[#10]. She has made a 'triligy' within a series with her out of her 9th-11th (upcoming) books. This series had taken a turn in an unusual direction, most of which has been , in my opinion, rectified.
Upcoming? I am not sure...I have many older books that I have backed-up.
I , too, have been doing major housework, and schools here start on Wednesday...the kids have 2-week intercessions thoughout the year, but only a 7 week summer vacation this year...which has been very, very hot.
Must run...stay cool!

Tonette,

School will be starting up here soon, too. It's been awfully hot this summer, but I'm hoping for a nice, cool Fall and Winter. Glad you enjoyed the new MJ Davidson book. Happy reading and thank you for dropping by :-)

It's Worth A Fortune

By
Happy Tuesday Everyone, Does anyone remember the song If I Had A Million Dollars by Barenaked Ladies ? I can't remember when or how I was first introduced to this song, but it's a fun song. So, how about if you had a million dollars? What would you do with it? Of course there's the responsible things to do with a million dollars--pay off debts, and such like that. Then there's the question of whether or not you give to charities, and how much. But, suppose you answered all those questions and you still had quite a lot left; what would you do with it? Maybe I'd go to Disney World. I've wanted to go, and I've never been able to. Or, perhaps I'd go to Germany and England, and Belgium (three of the countries my ancestors are from). Travel around seeing family and friends I don't see often. There's all kinds of possibilities. So, what about you? What would you do with a million dollars? Have A Tremendous Tuesday!

Spotlight On Author: Loretta Wheeler

By
Happy Tuesday Everyone, There's a gem of an author I've had the privilege of coming across...I'm talking about my friend, Loretta Wheeler. She's a sweetheart and very talented author. I enjoyed her YA Paranormal novella, The Pan Man immensely. And, she also writes Romance. So without further ado, come into my parlor and meet Loretta Wheeler: Me:  In your YA novelette, The Pan Man , you mention Pan's looking for his long lost soul mate. What made you choose Pan out of all the Greek/Roman gods and goddesses? Loretta:  I chose the Greek god Pan, because of the connection with the music. I found later on in the story, (my stories take over and write themselves usually) it applied even more than I realized because of the band's name. I won't mention the name of the band in here, because it's part of the surprise ending. Me:  You're mostly known for your Romance stories. How would you describe your writing style? Hot, suspenseful, sensual, sw...

Myths About Writers

By
Afternoon Folks, I thought we'd do a post to dispel some of the myths people seem to have about writers. I'll put the ones that first come to mind then y'all can chime in. Myth: Writing is a great way to make a lot of money. I'm not sure exactly how this one matriculated. Probably in the wake of some of the big best sellers (i.e. Stephen King, Anne Rice, Stephenie Meyer, JK Rowling, and the like) but most of the time writers put in more money for their writing than they do get out of it. Generally a writer doesn't make a ton of money unless somehow his/her book is a blockbuster hit and blasts through what the author owes in the advance (which is paid back to publishers through royalties). Most writers I've met and talked to are not millionaires. I'm not saying it can't happen, I'm saying it's not one of those things that's automatic. Myth: Writing Is Easy Anybody Can Do It. Okay, granted this isn't entirely a myth, but it's not ent...
