Updates, Swag, & Other Writing...

Happy Thursday All,

First all, thank you for all the Facebook love! I really appreciate it. (To check out my Facebook Author page, click here). It's great to be able to connect with y'all there. Also, if you want to drop me a line, you can email me.

I'll be ordering bookmarks for All's Fair In Love & Lion shortly. Also, I plan to do a giveaway with a fun swag item sometime in the future (haven't set a date for that, yet--but once I get those details figured out, I'll let y'all know). I can't believe in just 2 months it'll be out! I really am thrilled.

Basic story line for All's Fair In Love & Lion: Sasha Brighton is a high school English Teacher (she teaches Juniors) and she always wanted her own Prince Charming. However, she figures reality isn't fairy-tales. That is, until Monroe Dubay, a shapeshifter of sorts, steps out of her dreams and into her life.

I hope you all enjoy reading it as much as I did writing it. :-)

As the July 10th release date draws closer, keep an eye out for all the little things that I'll be sharing...from graphics, to bookmarks, to...

Well, you'll just have to stay tuned to find out!

I'm also working on edits and revisions to my YA Paranormal, Immortal Dreams Book 1: Dream Weaver. This involves an 18 year old heroine, Laney Alberts (who is a self-described "walking contradiction"), and 18 year old hero, Erich Magnus, who is a cross between a nice guy and a jerk (he can't help it that girls swoon when he's around--he's 6'3", blue-green eyes, dark hair) The story involves Greek gods and goddess and I had a blast writing it. It will have a sequel, but I don't know if it will have a 3rd book or not. Have to see how the 2nd one goes. The 2nd book already has a title and has been started.

Meanwhile, what are you reading?

Have A Tantalizingly Thrilling Thursday!

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...
