I'm back!

As you may or may not have noticed, my website was hacked early last week. Just spent a very long, sad week waiting for it to come back. My webmistress (a miracle worker) managed to restore it all–yay! So I'm back on track.

Here's all the news I've been DYING to tell you in the past week:

1. I submitted Screwdriver, book two in the Cocktales series, to my Ellora's Cave editor.

2. I submitted the last book in the Because trilogy, Because It's True, to my Samhain editor.

3. Because You Love Me is finally up for preorder at Amazon and Samhain. No luck at Barnes and Noble yet, but I'll keep a look-out for it.

4. I have registered for the Romantic Times convention in Chicago the week of April 11-14. I'll be rooming with Jayne Rylon and celebrating the fact that 8 of my fellow International Heat pals will be there as well. This is the first time so many of us have been in the same place at the same time. Watch out, Illinois! I'm participating in the Ebook Expo and the Giant Book Fair (both are open to the public). I'll also be hosting a Red Hot Pictionary game and sitting on a panel about the ebook industry. Hate to wish my life away, but come on April!

5. I'm about to start work on a duo of red hot romantic comedies I'm co-writing with Lexxie Couper. I can't wait to write these books!

6. I received the cover for the print anthology of Northern Exposure and Southern Comfort. It releases in Sept. 2012. Isn't this cover stunning?! Love it.
