Pssst! Have You Heard?

Happy Tuesday All,

Didn't I say to keep an eye on my blog? Sure, it's afternoon...and normally I'd have a post up in the morning...but hey, sometimes it's fun to shake things up a bit.

Hope everyone got to see the title change in yesterday's post. Yes, Surreal is now All's Fair In Love & Lion. My editor wanted a new title, and so I sent her a list of ideas. She chose 2, I took some time to consider both options, got some feedback, and then decided on All's Fair In Love & Lion. Editor says she loves it, so that's good!

So...what's the big news? What's so exciting?

I'll need another drumroll please...


Ready?
 
Are you sure?
 
Really positive?
 
Really, really positive?
 
Okay....here it is...

All's Fair In Love & Lion
will release in July of this year (2013)!!!!

I can hardly believe it! Editor gave me the go ahead to announce, so I'm announcing.  I'm knee-deep in the edits. The cover art sheet they asked me to fill out has been turned in. I've sent in the dedication and the acknowledgements and my author bio. So now, it's just a matter of getting everything pulled together.

From what I understand it will first be released as E-book for Kindle and Nook available at Soul Mate Publishing's website, Amazon, and Barnes & Noble. Then later on it'll be available in print.

I appreciate all of you accompanying me on this journey, and I thank you for the well-wishes, support, encouragement, laughter, shared stories, and everything. I hope all of you will join me to as I continue this journey called writing and publishing. I also hope you enjoy All's Fair In Love & Lion when it comes out!

Have A Totally Terrific Tuesday!

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&

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 . Kerrelyn, being the awesome person that she is, has agreed to give a signed copy of the novel to ONE lucky commenter on my blog. Here's how it's going to work and please read all instructions CAREFULLY. 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.

If you choose to enter by commenting on my blog: Leave your FIRST name, email address, and what vampire is your favorite. 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
