What? Huh? Yeah, I'm here...Sort Of.

Happy Wednesday (late afternoon),

Hi everyone! No, I haven't forgotten the blog or any of you. I've been pretty preoccupied lately.

The best way to keep up with me is to find me either one of two ways (or both ways):

On Twitter:  @WriteByBethany

Or on Facebook:  do a search for Bethany Averie

I update those frequently.

There's been some blog updates that I did today. I updated books I finished reading. (Yes, it was good).

I also updated about my writing. The status on Immortal Dreams Book 1:  Dream Weaver is that I got my critiques back so now it's in the revision process (and then that will go out to CP and beta reader/s and then more revisions until it's ready). I've got the companion novel for Surreal in the process of being written (that's been a bit slow) and Immortal Dreams Book 2 (Dream Weaver sequel) started. So I've been fairly busy on that front.

Updates have also been added to what movies I want to see. Of course that was off the top of my head and I'm going to have to go BACK over the movies that have recently come out and the ones that are now released on DVD to double-check which ones I want to see to further update the list.

I've been doing some brain storming with one of my beta readers for the YA series (Immortal Dreams) and that was a lot of fun.

I expect I'll be busy reading before too long and of course edits. So, if you don't hear from me, don't despair. There's always Twitter and Facebook and I will return.

Meanwhile, get yourself over to my Critique Partner, Tess St. John's Launch Party and Giveaway. It ends Thursday (tomorrow) at 9pm Central Time, so you do not want to miss this. While you're at it, pick up a copy of Chance For Freedom, her newest Historical release (and one I had the honor of critiquing). Great novel written by a fabulous author.

Have A Whimsical Wednesday!

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...

Gregori Celebrates My Birthday

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.
