The one it's all about...

[image error] Final day of the Restless Spirit book tour is here. Wow, that went fast! And the final day brings us the star of the shooo, um, I mean book~Tuesday Cane. I talk to Tuesday over at Words of Wisdom...From the Scarf Princess.

In a few days I'll come back and use random.org to choose two winner and then I'll contact them and....the villagers will rejoice! ;)

It's Mother's Day weekend. I hope you all have a brilliant time. Look for an upcoming book spotlight on my blog to show off a book I recently read that is the bomb. And utterly priceless if you have any interest in self publishing. Beyond that, bring on the cookouts and the vino and the presents! We're going to celebrate the fact that I am apparently one bad mutha. ;)

What's up with you this weekend? Kiss your mother!

Mmm...Shepherd

Day four of the Restless Spirit blog tour brings us to Book Reviews and More by Kathy and my main man Shepherd. I know! I know! I always fall head over heels for one (or more) of my male characters but I truly think Shepherd takes the Dom cake. I simply cannot say (or type) his name without making yummy noises. The same noise I make when I'm eating a warm chocolate chip cookie.

It's like Mmm... and *sigh* had a baby. That is my Shepherd noise.

Go visit with him for his character interview and remember, drop a comment along the way at any blog (or all of them), and you could be one of my two winners. The more times your name's in there, the better your odds. Huzzah!

p.s. There seems to be a B+ review of RS on Book Reviews and More by Kathy. Yay! second review for my book. But I have no idea what it says beyond B+ because I'm trying not to read reviews of late. It saves my sanity. What tiny little shred I have left...heh ;)

stop 3...again

No, you're not seeing double. Due to a snafu stop 3 of the RSBT went up late. So I'm back to post the link for stop three at Guilty Indulgence. I'll honor any comments at GI or at Lucy's blog. So no worries, win/win!

What's made my day is the lovely four chocolate dipped strawberry review at the bottom of stop three on GI. I think it might be Restless Spirit's first official review. Pretty nifty.

I also just realized today's post is about Reed, Allister Lake's resident berry farmer and there are...berries! in Guilty Indulgence's header. Must be Kismet.

See you tomorrow for stop four. Shepherd. Yurm...Shepherd *sigh*.

Reed Green, former TV star...

Is who we're chatting with today. A minor schedule change zings us over to the wonderful Lucy Felthouse's blog . There we chat with Reed, former TV star, current berry farmer about sexual pleasure, Port and his thoughts on Tuesday--the girl, not the day ;)

Hop over and say hi if you can. Remember you can comment on any (or all) of the character interviews and be eligible for a chance to win a signed paperback from my backlist or an ebook from my backlist.

Now I have some stir fry to whip up. And a shower to take. And a book to finish. I'm reading a doozie. It's been a long, long day, but the eye exam is out of the way and my coveted big black nerd glasses are in my near future. Woop!

XOXO

Day two...

It's day two of the Restless Spirit blog tour and I'm at Delighted Reader talking to my character Adrian about everything from his favorite sex position to what he thinks it means for him that Tuesday's back in town. Adrian's the one who is familiar...seeing as he's Tuesday's old flame.

Remember, at the end of the blog tour I'll be drawing two winners from all existing comments. One backlist signed print title and one backlist ebook title. Comment at one place or feel free to comment at all five. It's up to you! Also...don't forget I'm writer of the month at Xcite's site. 25% off all my titles until the end of May. Click the banner at the top to access the deal. Hint: there are 4 rotating banners, you can simply arrow through them.

The Restless Spirit Blog Tour Starts Tomorrow...

Woohoo! This is the schedule for my Restless Spirit blog tour.

Five days, five character interviews, five excerpts and a chance to be one of two winners. A print winner  and an ebook winner from my backlist.

I'm very excited. I'm pretty sure this is one of my favorite books ever. I've even found myself reading it and I never ever ever read my work once it's been published. So, that's a mind freak :)

Here's the lineup. I hope you'll join me and come by to hear what my characters have to say and say howdy.



May 7th: Bodice Ripper Novels
May 8th: Delighted Reader
May 9th: Guilty Indulgence
May 10th: Book Reviews & More by Kathy
May 11th: Words of Wisdom...from The Scarf Princess

Hope to see you there!

And also yay, just in time, for the month of May (I am totally a poet)...I'm the author of the month on Xcite's site so save, save, save on my books. Go on...save! :)

Skittles and Starbursts and Gummi Bears, oh my!

Heh. Those are a list of some of my favorite sweet treats. But I asked for *messy* so we'll have to go with a fresh made S'more. You can win a copy of Restless Spirit just by sharing yours.

What do you have to do?: tell me your fave sweet

What will it cost me?: the thirty seconds it costs to type your answer

What do I get? A chance to win a smoking hot (ahem, if I do say so myself)book and there's also a rousing excerpt to be had. Oh, and it's fun.

How long will it last? Until May 19th

There's your info! Go forth and confess your sugar addictions to moi. :)

Happy Saturday. We're off to the flea market.

Yay! Stuff! And More Stuff!

I'm baaaaack! Yesterday was finishing a book and then my (ab)normal emotional meltdown post book finishing. Those who follow me on Twitter or FB know I have mentioned my angry and anxious mentality after wrapping up a project. Don't most normal people celebrate? LOL.

But in other news, I got this yesterday! It even smells pretty.





Now on to today. I am up at Polly J Adams blog. It's an interview. Where I tell stuff. Thanks very much to Polly for welcoming me! :)

And...finally, I've got several related works coming up in the future. Longer works that are linked by a common theme. That's all I'm gonna say right now because I'm superstitious about writing (and only writing!). But here is what's fueling my current WIPs. What's fueling yours?

XOXO

Never thought I'd be so happy...

Covered in dirt and poo and hay. But I was. The man and I spent hours and hours doing this this weekend. I'm itching to plant our veg in mid-May. Very excited! Here's a peek at our progress. I'll spare you the pics of me dressed as farmer Ted. But I will show you my secondhand boots. ;)

XOXO
