Making Appearances

Wednesday, January 13th, 2010

I’m all over the place these days. In a good and a bad way. But definitely heading toward the more positive.

I’ve been planning a few events so I’m thrilled for the signings that are coming up. It’s such a blast to be around other authors and around readers who are just as passionate about reading as I am about writing.

Check out some of my online and in person appearances:

Guest Author at The Write Type

Book Geek Wednesday at Tales from the Hollow Tree

Romance Panel at Borders Farmington, CT – February 13th

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:

A handful of authors, including NYT Bestselling author Jessica Andersen, Stella Price, and Isabelle Santiago, will be doing a Romance Author Panel and book signing to celebrate the start of a new school year and encourage all to read!

Please be aware there will be various genres and heat levels available! If they are not to your taste, you are free to peruse the bookstore or just swing by momentarily to show support for your favorite author.

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!!

Title-less

Monday, August 17th, 2009

I could not come up with an interesting title for today’s post. #brainfail

Can you tell I’ve been on Twitter too much lately? I really have. I find myself texting friends and family that way, as though I only have 140 characters. Makes me more efficient, but sometimes they text back majorly confused by my cut up sentences. Ha ha.

Speaking of Twitter, I’m sorry about that Twitter Digest. I must not have noticed I clicked on it, or I forgot to unclick it in my Twitter Tools update. You guys don’t need a digest! You have my Tweets displayed in the sidebar! :) So let me fix that so we don’t have that problem again, ok? It looks pretty unsightly.

Oh, and before I forget, we have the first official post up at Tales From the Hollow Tree! Check it out. I have a movie review about Penelope starring Christina Ricci and James McAvoy. Anyone here seen it? Come comment!

Let me go get started on my endless list of things to do today. *sigh* Someone will have to dig me out of the huge pile of clean laundry sometime this evening. I may only fold half before I pass out. ;)
