Distraction

I need some.

I thought I would share with you a cool fan vid of The Tudors. The music is obviously not Tudor style music, but it was great to watch the vid to get the feel of the dances. I do own all the seasons of The Tudors (what they've made so far) and I watch them as well, but it's hard with 3 kids running around, whining about their cartoons. *Sigh*

This was a good substitute, but I need more distraction. So distract me.

Research

Since I Tweet I don't think much beyond a 140 characters. Sad but true. *sigh*

 I've also been holed away doing research. I love research, I don't mind curling up in the corner of my couch as snow storms rage outside.

I've been working on a couple of novellas. One which takes place in the Tudor time period. Between the Queens Anne of Cleves and Catherine Howard. It's been fun researching more about court life and intrigues.

The second novella which has been really fun to research is a hot one...

Deets

Sorry, got sidetracked for a few days.

 Anyways, deets! Yes.

As far as I know Enemy Enchantress (once known as Enchantress The Fey) is being released from Eternal Press on July 7, 2010! I am so stoked it found a home. I sent my contract off last week, and now I'm just introducing myself over on the EP loops and getting to know everyone.

I'm really excited it found a new home. I loved this series, and it didn't get the chance it deserved. Right now I'm tweaking the booktrailer I made for Enemy...

Enemy Enchantress Redux.

It was the first book I completed, and in 2009 released from Linden Bay. Unfortunately, Linden Bay shut it's doors and my series lost a home. Hey, it happens. It's the nature of business, sucks as it does. It also happened around a time when James made entrance into the world. I had no time to think about what the fate held in store for EE or as it was published Enchantress The Fey.

I am happy to say that Enemy Enchantress has found a home at last. I'll spill the deets later. It's been a long ...

What's Up

Other than working in my cave … not much. Seriously. I'm hard at work.

I have a lot on the go. I came up with a writing plan for my year. I don't know how it will fly, but I figured it's time to get a plan done up; and in case of cracking up I entrusted said plan to one of my CPs. Evidence in case I really do crack up.

 I'm on Twitter a lot of the time. If you're on Twitter find me. I chat … alot. My user name is ruttanamy.

Other than that, what's up with you?

And when my brain becomes my own...

A Bucket List

Kind of trying to keep my mind off something. So I thought I would waste time with a Bucket List. [image error] I haven't done a Meme in forever.

( ) Shot a gun? No, but I would be interested in learning how. For research.

(x) Gone on a blind date. iYep, meeting my DH was a blind date.

(x) Skipped school.

(x) Watched someone die. My Nanny. I'll never forget it.

(x) Been to Canada? Umm, kind of a silly question to ask a Canadian, but whatever.

( ) Been to Alaska? No, but I desperately want to.

( ) Been to Cuba...

Join Me at The Raven

Yep, it's that time again. I'm at the Raven Happy Hour today talking about a Non Verdical Vampire. Yep, it's not a misspelling, it was a strange inscription scrawled on the wall of the Ottawa Carleton County Jail.

The Twelfth Night

No, it's not the Shakespearean play; but like one of Bill's trajedies all good things must come to an end. [image error]

This is the last freebie book in our 12 Naughty Nights. Tomorrow I'll have information where you can download the FREE anthology for Kindle. [image error] I think it's a PDF as well, so it's not just available on Kindle. I have to double check that when I get it from the powers that be. LOL!

So to end our Naughty Nights enjoy Amie Stuart's moving WHEREVER YOU ARE.
