With everything going on, and my spotty schedule here, I haven't been talking about the impending release of Megan Chase book 2, DEMON INSIDE. But it is being released, July 28, which is only 22 days away. Eek ( Read more... )

First, I finished the WIP Monday night. Which is nice. It's long (97k) and the first half needs to be ripped the shreds, but overall...well, overall it's okay. But there are a few scenes and stuff in it that I'm extremely pleased with. So that's a start.

And speaking of my work, this is really cool. Personal Demons is a July subfeature on the B&N. ( Read more... )

I just so hate Website Tonight. I really, really hate it. It's so slow. The templates are so unattractive and dull. It keeps cutting the bottom of the page, so I can't find the "OK" button to save my changes. And there's no flexibility in page arrangements.

I updated the site with some reviews today. It's like trying to stuff a cat down a tube.

(Note: I originally had a different excerpt planned for today, but since the last one inspired so much discussion I decided to put up the very next scene instead.)

Yes, that's right. If you're looking for much actual content from me this month, you won't get it. Or rather, you will, but in a different way.

Because Personal Demons releases next month--less than thirty days from today ( Read more... )

1. I know it's hard to believe, and you probably wouldn't have heard about this anywhere, but my buddies (and fellow Reluctant Adults) Anton Strout and Mark Henry BOTH had books release yesterday! Because they're both so shy and retiring, I thought I'd mention it here.

This is my quickie review of Anton's book, and I'm sure you all remember when I ( Read more... )

Yeah...I don't know if "fun" is the right word, but I made some Personal Demons icons and put them on my website (now with bigger font!), so I'm going to put them up here too. If you like them and want them, take them. I would say don't worry about crediting me, because I don't care, but the point is to get the name of the book out there, right? So ( Read more... )

So reading this article on Gawker got me thinking.

The article, for those who don't want to or don't have time to click and read it, is about "going Dutch" on dates. Specifically the first few dates. And whether it's okay for a man to expect a woman to pay for her own dinner on a first date. And whether women should expect to have their meals paid ( Read more... )
