UNDEAD AND UNWORTHY Is Released Back Into The Wild
The paperback edition of UNDEAD AND UNWORTHY, the next-to-latest book in the saga of Betsy the Vampire Queen, comes out in paperback tomorrow! For those of you who felt, rightly, that no work of mine is ever worth the hard cover price, tomorrow is your lucky day. Also? Happy Thanksgiving...there's nothing quite like a holiday where the tradition is genocide and, also, eating until you vomit.

I Tease with Undead and Unfinished
My intrepid assistant, Tracy, will be posting the first few pages of UNDEAD AND UNFINISHED at my Yahoo group. So check it out if you want a taste. Or if you want to mock my deathless prose. Hee!

I Take Over The Public Library
So, the Dakota County Library invited my husband and me to give a talk tomorrow, Wednesday, November 4, at the Pleasant Hill Library in Hastings, starting at 7:00 p.m.
We'll be talking about the Jennifer Scales series and other upcoming projects, including what's new with Betsy in UNDEAD AND UNFINISHED.
Why did the Dakota County Library invite us? We have no idea. Will they regret it? Probably.
So! See you there. We'll be the ones yapping non-stop at the front of the room.

I Hand Out Free Stuff
So, this Saturday (Halloween...but it's only a coincidence, I'm sure) I'll be at the Borders in Minnetonka at 2:00 p.m. I'll be signing books, chatting about Betsy, werewolves, designer shoes, candy, UNDEAD AND UNFINISHED, and more candy, and handing out free tote bags, signed book plates, and the occasional Bitch Out Of Water or Betsy Rules buttons. But no candy. Head on over...we'll be done way before it's time to hit the streets and demand candy.
I'm pretty sure. :-)

I Take Over (Television and Blogs)
We're coming up on Halloween, which means I've got reporters coming from all over, wanting my two cents on...the economic situation! Ha, if you believed that, you deserved to be fooled. No, my husband's the economist; I'm the writer o'smut and most of what I write is paranormal. Which nobody thinks much of (and why should they?) except in October.
So, there are a few blogs with my two cents, notably my own (natch) and www.romconinc.com. Also, I'm making a return appearance at...

I Carve (for the) Elderly
I am an unapologetic omnivore.
I always snicker when I hear someone refer to themselves as a carnivore, because they're always wrong. Carnivores only eat meat. Omnivores like me, and grizzly bears, and crows, and sloths, and rats, eat meat, berries, honey, the New York City subway system, old fish, greens, used bubble gum, expired gift cards, Visa statements...like that. Omnivores eat everything.
So I was in Deadwood, SD, earlier this month having a terrific time (I was asked to speak at...

I Have A Date
Hey, gang! I'll be signing books and shooting the breeze and giving away signed tote bags and t-shirts this Halloween.
And hmm, yes, since it *is* Halloween, yup, I'll be giving out candy, too. Even if you aren't in costume. Anyway, I'll be at the Borders in Minnetonka, at 2:00 p.m. on October 31. So, come spend Halloween afternoon with me talking about Betsy, her upcoming antics, my own antics, and why it's socially acceptable to wear fishnet paytyhose at least one day out of the year.

I Have a Contest and Go To Deadwood
My intrepid assistant, Tracy, suggested I get off my lazy ass and have a contest. Since I regard her with a mixture of awe and terror--kind of like a pair of Ferragamos marked 30% off--I agreed.
So! We're having a "what is your favorite MJD character?" contest. There will be three winners and each will receive a $25 B&N gift card (not, I repeat, NOT a Borders card...see my previous Borders rant from last fall), an autographed book, and a t-shirt (they came out great, especially the ones...

I Get A Date
To answer questions posed over the last couple of weeks, I did get a publication date for ME, MYSELF, AND WHY. The good news is, I'll have lots of time to gear up the PR machine. The bad news is, it won't be out for a year. Yup. September 2010. Hey, I just work here.
Truthfully, I'm pretty pleased. It was going to be February 2010 or September, and five months is NO time, in book publishing, to set up reviews, ads, tours, etc. Sorry, my doves, but that's the way the ball bounces. Or...

I'm Travelin', Pretty Soon
So, I've got a few events coming up in the next six weeks. I'll be at the reader's conference in Deadwood, South Dakota, in early October, gabbing about romance and vamps and, oh, possibly psychotic FBI agents. And on Halloween, I'm having an event at a local bookstore...come for signed books and angst! And possibly cookies. UNDEAD AND UNFINISHED is coming along nicely, and I'm outlining the second book in my FBI agent with multiple personality trilogy, called ENEMY MINE.
Check my...
