Prize Winners Update

I came down with this chest cold that turned into wicked bronchitis. Went to the doc yesterday and he loaded me down with antibiotics and rockin awesome cough medicine to help me sleep at night. Yay for drugs! [image error]

The short of this is I haven’t been able to get to the post office, so massive apologies to prize winners I owe prizes to. I’ll get there, hopefully next week. Prizes are coming, promise! Bear with me while I get over this crud and try to make deadline on a book at the same time.

Hope y’al

The Amazon Insult Continues…

So I’ve spent today waiting for Amazon’s explanation of why several of my erotic romances have been delisted. Still waiting. So far I’ve heard that it’s a glitch, a troll, and even blaming France. The only thing I do know is that sales ranks have not been reinstated on my books and I’m not happy about it.

Back To The Grind…

Since my blog contest lasted so long and every day I was putting up book giveaways, I might have forgotten how to do regular blog posts. Plus I buried myself in promotion for RIDING ON INSTINCT, so let’s see if I can get back to normal. Whatever normal is. Heh.

I’m working madly on a new book for Berkley. Being a writer is a lot like being a juggler. Lots of balls in the air. You’re writing a book, and oh here comes a ball in the air–the last book you finished has revisions to be done–oh here co
