And even more TOO HOT TO HOLD

So I've been invited over to the DIK Blog – that's short for Desert Island Keepers, where I'm hanging out with Lea and the rest of the ladies…and some SEALs, of course!  I'll be there for three days of interviews and blogs and yes, there's a giveaway.  So head on over and comment or just say hi and have fun on the island.

Also, I was recently interview for The Big Thrill (the online publication of International Thriller Writers) by awesome author Mary Kennedy (who had a book release on Jan...

More on TOO HOT TO HOLD

Thanks for making yesterday such a great release day!  I was bouncing all over the place, from Writeminded to LIST to Twitter to Facebook, posting pictures from readers who'd spotted Nick's book.

I love the pictures.  If you couldn't tell.

Anyway, today I'm going to direct you to two places, both with a giveaway.  I'm guesting over at Seductive Musings where I was interviewed by Carrie, and then Nick (and Jake and Chris)  are over at I Don't Want To Wait, I I Want The Book Now being...

TOO HOT TO HOLD release day!

Nick is in the house!

Well, he's been in some houses for a while – and I've heard from one person that he's been vacationing in Disney!  But as of today, you should be able to buy your very own copy of TOO HOT TO HOLD everywhere.  

And, if you're lucky, you'll get to see the brothers hanging out together, the way Shannon (Dorothy?  nah, too easy) Stacey did!

TOO HOT TO HOLD, for those readers new to my site, is book 2 in my Navy SEAL trilogy.

Book 1, HARD TO HOLD, is, of course, still available –...

T minus 1 day until TOO HOT TO HOLD!

It feels like its been forever between the release of HARD TO HOLD and TOO HOT TO HOLD, probably because of the holidays, but tomorrow, it's officially release day.  And I have a feeling time will fly between TOO HOT and HOLD ON TIGHT.  I'm trying to get ready for the whirlwind in between finishing up PROMISES IN THE DARK.  Tomorrow, I'll give a list of where you'll find me blogging over the next week or so (it's up on my events page as well!)

Today, I'll share this with you – Lea at...

Happy 2010!

A happy and healthy new year to all!

I'm home and writing tonight.  And pretty much tied to the computer until I'm done with Zane's book, but we had a yummy dinner of empanadas and spinach and feta cheese filo and brownies!  Appetizers and desserts – the only way to go!  

Of course, now I'm tired from all the food.  However, Lillie's lovely picture from Twitter perked me up:

She says,  Look who I found hanging around Walmart – He looked lonely, so I had to bring him home.

He looks good, doesn't h...

The case of the haunted snuggies

aka, when snuggies go horribly awry.

So Zoo's co-workers gave him a snuggie for Christmas.  He looks like a cross between a monk and a cult leader.  And then today, the same people gave Gus a snuggie.  A large snuggie.

Large snuggies are not made for large weims.  Never mind the fact that Gus was totally humiliated and would never wear this.  Currently, he's not speaking to us.

But dude, look at the floating orbs!  They're only in that picture…maybe it's the ghost that lives on my second floor? ...

Merry Christmas!

The cookies are baked.  And tested, multiple times.  The book?  Not done.  Not nearly done.  So I'm going to steal as much time as I can over the next few days to work – helps that Zoo does the cooking, you know?  I can set up and work until people arrive tonight, as we have Christmas Eve here.  Christmas Day is also here, but it's quiet and relaxing and really nice.

Gus agrees, especially because there's snow for him.

So, Merry Christmas to all!  Thanks to everyone who stops by to say hi or...

Snow Day for Gus

Gus was born in Vermont and spent some time the Adirondacks before he came to live with us when he was three months old and 20 lbs.  Now, he's two years old and probably about 100 lbs.

And he loves the snow.

If you couldn't tell…

Rituals

I don't really have writing superstitions, per se, but I definitely have rituals.  For instance, I write about half my book longhand and half on the computer.  For the longhand part, I use Clairefontaine notebooks, because the paper quality is amazing, and since I like to use more of a marker-like pen, I can write on the front and back of the page without it bleeding through at all.

I go through a notebook every couple of months – and I don't use a new / separate one for each project.  For...

Borders True Romance

You can find me talking about HARD TO HOLD – and the brothers – over with Sue Grimshaw at Borders True Romance blog today!  I'm also doing a giveaway of TOO HOT TO HOLD, which comes out January 5, 2010.  My wonderful editor offered those up, and I believe you'll get them before the actual release date, which is always nice!

So come on over and comment for a chance to win TOO HOT TO HOLD and talk about your likes and dislikes of series / trilogies, etc.

Obviously, I'm a fan of trilogies.
