DABWAHA Again!
Hi everyone!
Hope you had a nice Easter! We didn't do much — my son is too old for Easter egg hunts, and the weather wasn't great anyway, so we had a quiet day. We have lots of BBQ leftovers though!
Now that the weekend is over, it's DABWAHA time again, and Ecstasy Unveiled has made it to the final four thanks to all your votes! Now we're trying to get Lore to the final two, the championship!
So if you have a second to vote, Ecstasy Unveiled is up against Catching Fire, by Suzanne Collins. ...

Thanks for stopping by, and stay tuned for DABWAHA news! I think the next round starts tonight. *bites nails*

Demonica Ebooks
Hi everyone!
I've had a lot of emails from readers asking why they can't get my Demonica books in ebook format at retailers like Amazon. Well…it should be temporary. I've been told that the books SHOULD be restored by the 3rd, but we'll see.
Apologies…seems that right now there's some upheaval in the publishing and retailing world that's causing problems for a lot of authors.
Oh, and speaking of problems, my blog is having comment issues. I have to moderate all comments for now, so if your c...

DABWAHA Book Contest Winners!
I would have had these up sooner, but the server was down, so finally getting these up!
Since my son is in trouble, I made him to all the work in selecting the winners. Was quite funny to watch him write down each prize book on a piece of paper and then go through over a hundred entries to write down the number of each entry that mentioned each book. And then he had to assign each comment number another number so he could work with Randomizer.org to get the winners.
I know, sounds...

Will Bribe For Votes
Ecstasy Unveiled (Yay, Lore!) is up for vote in the DABWAHA tournament again, and this time…it's not going so well. Lore needs your votes! Desperately.
And I'm not too proud to beg.
So.

Conferences
I can't remember if I posted this or not…
But I'll be attending the Lori Foster Reader/Writer Get Together in June, and I'm starting to get really excited! If you happen to be in Cincinnati on Saturday, June 5th, even if you aren't attending the get together, you can come to the booksigning hosted by Barnes & Noble. Should be lots of fun!
Here's the information, including times, dates, location, and authors attending.
I'd really hoped to be able to go to more conferences this year, but...
