New Deal
I am so excited to announce that Ravenous Romance and Red Wheel have teamed up to offer paranormal romances in print. My work (the Blood & Sex Series) is a part of this offering and will be available in bookstores starting this summer.

The Baby Is Here!
Well, I'm obviously not posting this from my hospital room. So, I've scheduled this post ahead of time because my c-section is scheduled for today. I should have had the baby by around 8 a.m. CST. In any case, I won't be around for a week or so.
Looking forward to chatting with you all again soon!

Getting to Know Your Characters
I'm asked a lot of questions about characterization. That is (apparently) one of my strong points, but I'm not exactly sure how to explain it. So, I'll do my best.
It's a feeling as simple as knowing whether you want chocolate or blueberry ice-cream. Sometimes, you just know the character. For me, I get to know the characters as I write and then they do what they want to. There is
some plotting that I do in the beginning. I sit down with a legal pad or Microsoft One Note and sketch out the...

Night's Fall Excerpt
Excerpt
Chapter One
Fourteen months after the worst of my life was over, in the beginning of the
cooler fall weather everyone in Alabama had been anticipating, I was unpacking in a new
house. Not new exactly, but a different house. This was the same building I'd lived in
after the death of my parents, when I went to live with the Aunts. It had been my home
through the worst years of my childhood life, and would be again now after the worst of
the adult years. But it wasn't all bad memories in...

Night's Fall Virtual Release & Costume Party
Night's Fall …
Cool breath caressed my skin. "I don't want to do this without your permission, but I need your blood." Stubble scratched across my jaw as his head moved down to my neck. "You smell delicious."
In that moment, I would've given him anything if he would just ask again in that voice…
Gabrielle Pearce lost her husband. Her baby. And her life.Being abducted and thrown into a room in a dilapidated plantation home with a darkly seductive vampire could be the start of the...January 22, 2010
Just finished reading…
Just finished reading a book that I really enjoyed, and now it's time for me to confess. When I first read the cover copy for DUSK on it's release, I though "Eeesh." It sounded impossibe to pull off in a roughly 200 page vampire novel. Boy, was I wrong. Lana Griffin not only manages to pull off the most original cast of characters in a vampire story that I've seen in a while, but she does it with a fantastic wit that had me laughing out loud. It's hard to say more without giving away the...
