Joyful Flashback

Monday, December 21st, 2009

Posting at Hollow Tree today about a guilty pleasure I’ve had since the 5th grade. And before you make fun of me for having owned the crystal locket and the moon wand, know that it sparked my interest in many things fantasy and mythological, and for that I am grateful! ;)

Plus, Google Alerts has now informed me that my paperback has made it to ebay. Somehow, I find this to be a sign that I’m closer to ‘making it’. lol Pathetic.

Today's Theme: Change

Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009

It’s hard to believe it’s already Wednesday. Where did the week go? It seems to be flying by. I think the cooler weather helps. Honestly, I’m sure the 100 degree weather slows things down and melts clocks and such.

So there’s actually quite a bit happening this week. For starters, I blogged today over at Tales From the Hollow Tree. It’s a review of Maria V. Snyder’s Poison Study. If you haven’t been following Hollow Tree, check us out! There’s a lot going on. Movie reviews, book reviews, mythology and flash fiction – all canopied under my fave YA genre: fantasy. It’s really a fun place to be.

Also, I have a book signing this Saturday! :) Awesome huh? Here’s the info you need to know:

And I have decided in honor of my first post-baby booksigning I’m going to change my look! That’s right! It’s time for Mommy Makeover! I’m going to scour Sally’s today for some blonde hair dye and I’m trimming my hair, maybe even cutting bangs in. I need a change. Hopefully it’ll be a good one.

That’s it for me today. I have lots of writerly things to attend to. Happy hump day all!!

Well Lookie Here

So Exciting!

Thursday, June 25th, 2009

Look at what I have to show you:

If you look carefully at the shelf below mine, you’ll see Gena Showalter’s books and Nalini Singh’s!!! Imagine that! :) I’m in fantastic company, wouldn’t you say? There is no feeling like seeing your book on a store shelf. It’s totally surreal. *squee*

Also, my awesome hubby bought us tickets to the Paramore/No Doubt concert yesterday. What a show!!! I tend to use a lot of Paramore music on my fantasy series. Their song Conspiracy was practically written for the series, it fits so perfectly. Check it out:

No Doubt was fantastic too. High energy, great performers, and she sounded amazing. I’ll admit I was jealous that she looks so good after having children, but you know what, it just means I gotta work harder to get myself in shape. Period. Bah. :-P

The concert did inspire me to get back to my fantasy sequel which has been on hold while the muse played with the YA fantasy. But that one is now at 6500 words, so that one is on a steady pace as well. I really like where it’s headed and the tone that it has. Very different from any of my other stories.

All in all, I’m thrilled about the happenings in my life. Only cloud: my Peanut has his first cold. Mommy took him to the docs and they told me to just keep an eye on his fever, but he seems to be getting better already. His nose is really runny but with lots of crying and fighting, I give him some saline drops and he feels much better. So stubborn. *shakes head* We got him a new bouncer/exercise machine thing from Baby Einsten and he loves it! He tries to talk to the the little plastic froggy which makes me laugh. Ha ha.

Little Sister graduates from high school today so I gotta go get ready. Congrats, sweetie! So proud of you.
