Outlining and Famous Last Words
I'm blogging over at the Fangs, Fur & Fey community on their Topic of the Month. We're discussing whether or not we outline.

And on a completely tangential note... Last night, I was at my day job (well, night job, I guess), and a customer rushed in at ten minutes 'til close, wanting to exchange something. My associate teased him, and he teased back. We all joked a little bit, and he (customer) starts getting flirty. He guesses my associates name on the nose (impres

Something Fun in the Works
First, I have to say the response to the cover for TDTD has been overwhelmingly positive. Comments in various places have ranged from "I want her abs" (me too!), to "I want her hair" (ME TOO!), to "If I saw that in a bookstore, I'd stop and pick it up" (YAHOO!). So thank you to everyone who gave a shout-out! You are all awesomesauce!
Mostly, though, I want to tease y'all a little bit. With a bit over six months until Street Date, I'm in the planning stages of a six-part contest/giveaway to b

Cover Art Awesomeness
Is it possible to fall in love with a fictional character? Because after seeing my (Amazing! Fabulous! Gorgeous! Inspired!) cover art for THREE DAYS TO DEAD, I'm in love. Evy is gorgeous (She's wearing her cross! Important plot point alert!). The background is atmospheric and gritty, and the shadowy man behind her? Buwahahaaaa!
Okay, enough raving (for now).
TADA!
Didja see the awesome Patricia Briggs quote?
I've got the back and spine, too, for added goodness (and official summary).

Seven Months Until Due Date
Yes, I'm counting down. Why do you ask?
Waiting for my book release day is starting to feel like prepping for a baby. To wit:
*Getting the nursery ready = setting up a website and maintaining a blog.
*Baby shower = launch party.
*Collection of clothing, diapers, wipes, and assorted baby paraphernalia = creation of marketing tools and giveaway items, such as business cards, bookmarks, pens, buttons, etc...
*Baby weight gain = too much stress-relieving chocolate consumption.
Fortunately, the birthing

#dayfail
My productivity was shot to hell first thing this morning, because I didn't sleep well and had a hard time dragging my butt out of bed. Should have seen that as a sign.
The majority of my day was spent making sure the state of Maryland had proof that I AM an insured driver (Note to Self: never assume government agencies have a clue what they are doing when you move state to state). That was quite fun, especially the letter I received today (3/16) telling me that as of 3/12 I was considered unin
