Six Sentence Sunday ~ Chasing Miss Kringle ~ 5 ( @evernightpub #sixsunday @6_Sunday )

#5 of Six
Sentences over six weeks from 'Chasing Miss Kringle.'

     Malory loved what she did for a living. An
ex-showgirl, who still had the body and beauty of a dancer, worked with her PI
team, comprised of mostly women, in the office suites next door. There were a
lot of girls against boys competitiveness in our outfit. The boys' part of the business, headed up by
Vic, was Las Vegas

Lead in for Six Sentence Sunday for Chasing Miss Kringle (wk 5)

For Six Sentence
Sunday, I'm sharing an excerpt from my story 'Chasing Miss Kringle' (found
within Evernight Publishing's holiday anthology – Stockings & Suspenders) over the course of six weeks.
1 of 6:
     "You're the only one left, Jack."

of joke. Yet the rigid set of his wide shoulders and straight face told me
otherwise. Disbelieving what I'd just

A Special Visit with Shannan Albright ( @nae0309 @evernightpub #SO )

Hi Shannan! I understand you have a couple of series at two
publishers, and a little birdie told me you have book number two of one of
those series in the process of being published with Evernight Publishing. Could
you tell us the name of the series, the titles of the two books and give us a
bit of background on the series?
     Yes,
C.R., Your little birdie chirped correctly. I am very

Tuesday Tea with @AdonisDevereux ~ A look at 2012

Well, another Tuesday is upon us. Do you have your beverage ready?
Yes? Then sit down and join Adonis Devereux's discussion on looking at 2012.
Welcome Adonis!

     What
does 2012 hold for us? I wonder how many blog posts are popping up all over the
place with that question. Do I really want to go there? Probably not. I live in
Japan,
and on New Year's Day, we were hit with a 7.0-magnitude

Six Sentence Sunday ~ Chasing Miss Kringle ~ 4 ( @evernightpub #sixsunday @6_Sunday )

#4 of Six Sentences over six weeks from
'Chasing Miss Kringle.'

     The design and colors reminded me of
the Native American beaded belts people sold at roadside stands. Vic's wife,
Malory, worked in the adjoining office. She loved her southwestern motifs, each
room decorated to represent Arizona and New Mexico. Knickknacks
and other items of the same colors dominated all our offices. The décor

Shameless Saturday ~ bragging about RM Sotera ( @rmsotera @sirenbookstrand #SO )

Hi everyone! I wanted to do some shameless bragging about my friend's new book available at Siren Publishing.
Over the New Year holiday, RM Sotera had been hanging out on Siren's 100 best seller list, flirting around in the 90's. Yay! I was so stoked to see her up there and did some shout outs at the time I saw her on the list, but I wanted to crow about it again. Plus, I'd love (& I'm sure she
