Alpha Males, Beta Males, and Vampires

The Redemption Virtual Tour continues today at Bookin' It Reviews , where I'm talking about alpha males, beta males, and vampires (of course). And more chances to win the tour prizes.

Today's gratuitous photo is...

My great-grandparents' headstone. I named a soon-to-be-very-major character in my urban fantasy series after Ran (which was short for Randolph, and the character's name is Quince Randolph), and Ida's maiden name was Jaco, another name that's important in the UF series.

The original Sus...

Today's gratuitous photo....


So, this dude's name is Peter Jaco. He's my...um....er....great-great-great-great uncle , or something like that. Scary beard, huh? This was his Civil War muster photo. Most of my Jaco ancestors fought for the Union despite living in the South, mostly in Tennessee...they all ran away from home an...

Are You a Booksniffer? (I Bet You Are!)

I am doing a Q&A today at the Booksniffers Anonymous website and am giving away a copy of Redemption (choice of signed audiobook, ebook or print). They ran a review of Redemption on Sunday, and I'm back today answering questions. And you can find out if I, too, am a closet booksniffer! Stop by and say hello even if you already have a copy of the book. You might learn something new!

Also, need a reason to move into a rural vampire commune? Check out my guest post today at A Great Book is th...

Also today, I'm over at the Star-Crossed Romance Blog , trying to get a conversation started about book covers. Come over and weigh in! 

Random photos for no reason other than to have art on the blog....from a trip to England several years ago. Taken in a public park in Bath.

Also, tomorrow, I'm doing a really, really fun interview over at Books Books The Magical Fruit , where I was asked really hard questions. And I tell a little bit about my dogs' visit to happy hour at the Columns Hotel in New Orleans...without me. I'll tell the full story here tomorrow :-)

Next Stop on the Redemption Virtual Tour is...

If you missed the radio interview on "Live with Tamaria" last night, you can listen to it by clicking the arrow in the top of the column to the right. I've had horrible voice problems this spring and summer from allergies, so bear with my creaky voice. It got better toward the middle and end when I finally pulled out a Diet Coke and started swilling it! Okay, I might have talked a little too much reality TV....

The Redemption Virtual Tour goes on and on....Today, Redemption is being featured o...
