Today, because it’s my birthday, I have decided to take a break from editing. Because editing is really hard work, far less pleasant than writing something new. I’ll be finishing up the Hyde trilogy soon and am well into the creation of my next series, tentatively titled ‘The Rising’. It is a mixture of Urban [...]

“Procrastinating is number three on my Stupid List. You still end up exactly where you didn't want to be, doing exactly what you didn't want to do, withe the only difference being that you lost all that time in between, during which you could have been doing something fun. Even worse, you probably stayed in a stressed-out, crappy mood the whole time you were avoiding it. If you know something is inevitable, do it and get it over with. Move on. Life is short.”

Thanks for accepting my friend request. Hyde was a book of the month suggestion for May 2013 from the goodreads group: Shut Up And Read. I'm so glad I followed the suggestion. It was great; keep writing!! Looking forward to reading Jekyll and then the third installment later on.

Btw, thanks!
Just finished your Hyde Series in a Buddy read and all of us must know when can we expect book 3? Since none of our questions have been answered we are dying!! Perhaps you would be up for a Q&A with some of us!

Thanks, Sangria! I hope you enjoy it. And thanks for having that username. Because it makes everyone smile and think of good times. ;) Yum.

Yay! Thanks. That's the best kind of addiction. ;) Tentative title for book three is 'Strange Case'. Have you heard Halestorm's song "Here's to Us"? I LOVE that their album is called 'The Strange Case of...'
Thanks for your friendship, Lauren!I just found this, read the story summary, and had to grab it. Everything else can wait!

Thanks for letting me know. I've been pimping out your book like mad! LOL!
Lisa wrote: "Just wanted to let you know I finished Hyde and absolutely loved it! Amazingness!!!!!!! Is it too soon to ask for book 2. PLEASE!!!!"Yay! Thanks, Lisa. I'm really glad you enjoyed it. But sadly yes, it's too early to ask for book two. Ha. I'm working as fast as I can, but want it to be the best it can be before releasing it. I hope you understand.
As time gets closer, I'll be posting updates and teasers on facebook, so feel free to friend me. Until then, also feel free to tell all your friends and neighbors about the book. Heehee
Thanks again,
Lauren

Alicia wrote: "You're pretty. :)"LOL. Golly, thanks. If I told you this was the best photo of me ever taken, and I'm actually 102 years old, would it disappoint you? ;)
The reason I haven't put up a photo before is because I believe myself to be the world's most unphotogenic person. Any picture I put up, I'd hate. And then I would avoid coming to this site entirely. And that would just suck. Someday I shall find a photographer who knows photoshop well enough to make me look human.I decided to post a picture so that people will know I do indeed have a face. This pic is a few years old (no, not twenty years old-thanks a lot though). See how happy I am in it? Wanna know why? My third pina colada is just out of frame.
Since I will be attending the RWA convention in a few weeks, I thought it was important for people to know what I look like...before they start laughing. Please feel free to say hi if you see me getting yet another cup of coffee, grocery shopping in my sweats, or yelling at my incredibly angelic children. :)
Alicia wrote: "So . . . when is Hyde coming out?"Hi! I have a few folks reading it now. When they tell me how awesome it is (and they will. Oh yes, they will. Even if I have to threaten their families to get them to say it), it will be proofread. So I am very comfortable saying that the release date is...
Sometime.
Ha. Mid-July would be ideal.
How is yours going?
Urban wrote: "Hey I'm going to email you my book cover to see what you think. I got your email address from your blog... i think. lol!"Awesome! I can't wait. My writing email is: ReadLaurens@gmail.com, just in case. When did you get it, by whom, and how much do you love it? :)
Thanks so much, Jennifer. I'm glad you followed the suggestion as well. ;) And hope you enjoy Jekyll.
