Sorry, I know, I've been slacking this week. Rushing around trying to get book stuff done as well as get ready for Faeriecon. On top of that Mailing Mahem required me to meet my publisher Neal Levin at a midway point for a prisoner exchange...he had my books and I had his bribe ;)

Just joking, LSI sent my books for the con to his address, but all is ( Read more... )

Okay...Okay...I know, suggestive title alert, but I'm not really being dirty, or immoral, or trying to get anyone's hopes up...really. I am a small-press author. That means that no one...NO one has as vested an interest in my work as I do. No one will give it as much time, effort, and passion (get your mind out of the gutter.) as I can.

The brutal ( Read more... )

...And more structure, I think. As most of you will have noticed, and perhaps experience yourselves, life often gets in the way of regular posting.

To that end I'm instituting a schedule. I know...nasty things, those, and no guarantee, but I have to try something :)

So, to that end this is what I aspire to:

CINCINNATI, OH Publisher Daniel Reitz, Sr., of Mundania Press and the editorial team of Danielle Ackley-McPhail, L. Jagi Lamplighter, Lee C. Hillman, and Jeffrey Lyman have joined forces to ( Read more... )

Okay, so it's been a while. Sorry, been caught in a literary soap opera. Most of you know that as of April 24th, Marietta Publishing is reverting rights to the Bad-Ass Faeries series and as of December they will be ceasing operations as a publishing house.

Stemming from that is my current drama of finding homes for the books and resetting them to ( Read more... )

It's that time again...

If you have a moment, please stop at Locus and vote in this year's Poll/Survey. I'd appreciate any votes, even if they aren't for me. These things are much better when people participate.

I don't know if they have shown up, but I am listed for Tomorrow's Memories under ( Read more... )

I've been meaning to post this for a little while. I've had an interview posted on the Ghost In The Machine podcast by Gail Z. Martin (www.chroniclesofthenecromancer.com). I must say this is not the best interview I have given. The phone I was on was horrible and I was getting over a cold which made me sound even worse, but the interview itself was ( Read more... )

Well...I didn't make it...day thirty came around and I was at a paltry 30,000 words. But still, Blood Will Tell, the unconventional vampire novel I'm writing with Jeffrey Lyman, is pushing 45000 words right now thanks to that little goose from competing. I've slacked off a bit, mostly due to schedule conflicts and a problem with my elbow that is ( Read more... )
