…Shiloh isn't here
Discovered superstickies via PBW's blog…
So your visit here wasn't totally in vain…when I was trying to find the link to the supersticky thingy…
Look what I discovered on PBW's blog… she liked Quinn… wow.
I'm still grinning.
I stumped PBW. I stumped Lynn Viehl.
I wanna have that engraved on a plaque or something… O_O And she liked the fricking book!!!

Do Not Disturb…Reading…
Groan. I wish.
Silver Borne
Silver Borne comes out today, and damn it, I wanna spend the day reading. But it's Tuesday, and for the foreseeable future, my Tuesdays are kind of taken. Sulk. Gee, if I can tweet and run at the same time, wondering if I can run and read…no. Better not try it.
I love these books.
I love that cover.
I want to read this fricking book right now… O_O

Let's talk about… Quinn
Something I'm hearing a lot about lately.
Quinn.
As in… are we going to see him again…
Wince.
I'm sorry. Probably not.
There are a few reasons.
Contractual reasons…last year, I signed w/Ballantine for romantic suspense. I'm still writing for Berkley, but Berkley will be getting paranormal romances. All romantic suspense will now go to Ballantine. Since Quinn was kind of 'born' at Berkley, if I did write another book for him, it would really be best if it was a Berkley book and my contracts are...Dreamveil… whoa
Whoa. Lynn Viehl has got to be the queen of weird and awesome. Started and finished this in one sitting and I'll have to read it again, but whoa.
Dreamveil
(got an ARC, not due out until May, LOVED it)

Weekend reading…
So… what are you reading this weekend?
Anything special planned?
I got a book in the mail this week that is probably going to be on my reading list.

I'd rather be under confident in this aspect
There's an agent, Nathan Bransford, that I follow on twitter. He sometimes has some interesting industry blogs…well, probably often, but I only click over there every now and then. This time when a post came up about a lack of confidence and writing? That one had my name written all over it, so I clicked through.
Do You Lack Confidence in Your Writing? It Might Not Be a Bad Thing!
I've got to say, to some extent, I agree. It's an interesting post, and some of the comments are...

No Longer Mine…being Reissued
From Samhain. It's been revised. HEAVILY.
It's not longer, though…I did some pretty heavy rewriting in some areas, but it didn't add to the length. It's a cleaner read, though. And has a prettier cover. Much prettier.
No Longer Mine
It's due out in ebook in April, and yes, it will probably go into print at some point, but it won't be this year.
Blurb:
Born on the wrong side of the tracks and dealt a fair share of hardship, Nikki Kline never gives up a fight. Even when her reason to keep...
