Updates and Good Stuff





Reading Roll Call: I just finished the next installment in Jess Haines' HandM Investigations series, Enslaved by the Others. It's a dark, dangerous tale that had me turning pages long into the night in a race to finish it. I don't want to give away any spoilers, but I will say the beginning 35-40% of the book is very dark. For light-hearted readers,
not to fear, keep reading and you won't be disappointed. I'm also giving away a signed print ARC on my Facebook Author Page. Please stop by and comment to enter.Health Updates: A lot of you have asked me to do a personal
journal or blog about my health battles, mainly because so many of you are facing your own issues and are inspired by what I'm able to overcome. I'm not sure I have the time to add another project to my list, but I do post updates on my personal Facebook profile (here's a recent one) when I have news I'm ready to share. Currently, I've had some new developments creep up,
so I haven't been as productive work-wise as I've wanted. Having my kids home for the summer hasn't helped, either ;-)Events: Due to the aforementioned health reasons, I've dropped out of July's Romance Novel Convention. If you're in my Facebook street team, you might want to stop by the group and read the offer there for my all-inclusive ticket (includes: registration, 5-days/4-nights hotel, all
classes/panels/workshops, events, socials, parties and meals). If I can't go doesn't mean someone else shouldn't!The V V Inn Series Update: I love this series, always have and always will. But my love of writing it doesn't pay the bills and hasn't with the last three books. I've actually lost money on them. If you'd like to help new readers discover the stories (and thus increase my ability to keep writing it), then please consider clicking the link below to donate a Tweet or Facebook Status announcing an upcoming 99c sale for The Hunt.
