Because I needed to have some kind of reason to add to my blog, right?

Thanks for stopping by, all the folks I met  at RWA Nationals this year. I’ve got my write up over on the blog as we speak, so stop over and see my thoughts and  experiences. And for those of you who didn’t get the chance to meet me in New York, you can still see me on Saturday, July 16th at Rose’s Bookhouse in O’Fallon, MO.

Here I am, rushing about to get ready for RWA Nationals, and I’ve not yet posted my schedule. Along with an army of other authors, I’ll be participating in this year’s Literacy Booksigning, in the Broadway Ballroom of the New York Marriott Marquis in Times Square. The signing lasts from 5:30pm to 7:30pm so stop by and say hi!

Reason number 2 to stop by? I’ll have the first set of Romance Trading Cards for Hearts and Minds! I just got them back from the printer, and I think Kim at Hot Damn Designs! outdid herself on these beauties.

Of course, if you can’t make it to the big apple, I understand. You’re in luck, as July 16 I will be signing at Rose’s Bookhouse from noon to 2pm. There’ll be more RTCs than you can shake a stick at, too, since I’ll be there with Sela Carson, Jennifer Jakes, Kimberly Killon, and Annamarie McKenna. I’m flattered to be next to such luminaries, and definitely recommend stopping by.

Yup, I went an entire quarter without posting out here. Not sure how it happened but there’s a new blog post that blames it on Chaucer (or something). If you haven’t been following the news on Twitter (where I’m only slightly more talkative than here, actually) you may not have heard so here’s some news on how to find Little Old (okay, Big Old) Me…

Keeping Up (with) Appearances:

• April 16 will see me signing copies of Impulse Power at the Barnes and Noble in Crestwood, MO. I’ll be the person sitting next to the far more talented Allie Harrison. Don’t have a copy of Impulse Power? They’ll have them for sale!
• I’m returning to RWA Nationals this year, and thrilled beyond measure that I get to hit the Big Apple. I’ll once again be running myself ragged trying to do everything at once, but Nikki Enlow has made me promise to do Karaoke at least one night…
• In July, I’ll be doing another book signing for Impulse Power, this time over at Rose’s Bookhouse. I’ll have more information as the date gets closer.

And just that fast, release day is here for Impulse Power! For all of you who eschew eBooks for whatever reason, you can  now get your very own dead-tree edition of my SFR novella Hearts and Minds (and get two other great stories in the process, what a bargain!). Here’s the only link you need: http://samhainpublishing.com/print/impulse-power-print

I’m back, after a long absence, with a little bit of news to share – Hearts and Minds just had a lovely review from the RT book blog, which thrilled me to the core. RT is the big leagues, and getting a four star review from  them makes me feel real. Go Team Me.

Actually, that capsule review is a companion to an interview they did with all three of the Impulse Power authors. We’re all charming and witty and terribly clever, so you should pop over here and give it a read.

Keeping up with Appearances

Things have gotten hectic in my non-writerly life, which, to my shame, means I won’t be able to make it out to WFC this year, despite my desire to the contrary. That means if you missed me at RWA, you missed me overall. Sorry for those folks who were looking forward to seeing me. Hopefully, next year will look a little better.
