SWAN SONG, a mini-review
On the edge of a barren Kansas landscape, an ex-wrestler called Black Frankenstein hears the cry…"Protect the Child!"—In the wasteland of New York City, a bag lady clutches a strange glass ring and feels magic coursing through her—Within an Idaho mountain, a survivalist compound lies in ruins, and a young boy learns how to kill.
In a wasteland born of nuclear rage, in a world of mutant animals and marauding armies, the last people on earth are now the first. Three bands of survivors journey t...
New release date, reading, & foreign cover fun
So . . . I haven't been around much lately, though I'm sure I don't have to point that out. After getting THE ICING ON THE CAKE written and turned in mid-April, I had revisions and page proofs and copy edits and two other rounds of questions / corrections to do. I'm really impressed by how thorough my editor and the HCI team have been. I believe there will be an article on the TRUE VOWS line in an upcoming issue of RT (we all answered some questions recently, so I'm assuming it's in the...

TRUE VOWS: an ARC giveaway
A couple of weeks ago I got TWO ARCs for THE ICING ON THE CAKE. I haven't made a site page for it yet and need to do so, but I've posted an excerpt below. My editor told me she read this at a sales conference, which is pretty cool. The ARCs I have were packaged with the original cover, so that would make them collectible, yes? *g* I'm going to give one of them away here to a commenter.

Dear Book Pirate / Copyright Infringer
Dear patmelo,
I see from my recent Google Alert that you are uploading pirated copies of my books to AstaTalk, a well known pirating site (I guess their "underground community" tag line makes them seem cool?).

Here's the thing.
What you're doing ...
