Halloween Hello!
Hi LJ friends!
I have been super busy lately! Fun stuff but little time for writing. I'm going to fix that, though, because for the first time ever I signed up for NaNoWriMo for the first time ever. It usually takes me 6-7 months to finish a book so I've never participated before but I have 13 pages of a book that really excites me and it would be great if I could push myself to finish it quickly. We'll see if I can succeed....
Last Thursday I signed books for BOOKS INC Spooktacular event in Palo Alto with authors Rachel Caine (super lady!) and Stacey Jay (great sense of humor!).
Stacey is on the left, I'm in the middle and Rachel at the end. It was so fun and I feel like I've made two wonderful new writer friends, plus the staff at BOOKS INC was wonderful and I enjoyed them a lot. I signed lots of books and handed out DEAD GIRL rainbrow hand-crafted bracelets. Then afterwards my hubby drove me to the beach for my birthday weekend trip. I posted more pics on my Facebook under my full name. I also have an author page on FB where I only write about books, nothing personal like here.Last night I went to a Halloween party at my niece Natasha's house and my hubby took best adult costume with a rennassaince costume. I dressed up too in a purple gown. Lots of talking, candy, games and fun.
Happy Halloween everyone!!!

PICK A PAGE FROM MAGICIAN'S MUSE #6...
With just a little over a month before MAGICIAN'S MUSE comes out (it's usually out earlier than the Oct. 1st pub date for pre-orders), I want to share something with fans.
The book has almost 300 pages but I don't want to give away the ending, so pick between pages 1-250 and the first two people who respond, I'll copy those pages to share here.
The opening of MAGICIAN'S MUSE has already been posted on this blog if you look back several posts.
