Two Weeks to Deadline
It may look like I’m in my office, but I’m actually living in 1960 rural North Carolina (only with air conditioning). I’m working like mad, so excuse me if I’m quiet on the blog for a while. I’ll see you next time I visit 2012!
Read MoreSigning Books at Quarter Moon Books and Gifts!
How I love Quarter Moon Books! Every year, owner Lori Fisher has tweaked her wonderful Topsail Beach store in some exciting new way. This year, she added a patio out front where people can enjoy a smoothie or sip wine from the new wine bar. I love signing books at QMB because, in addition to…
Read MoreStory Weekend: Warning Signs
First, just a quick mention for those of you in the US: Secret Lives is still in Kindle’s “100 Books Under $3.99” promotion and it’s priced at only $1.99. It’s been selling like the proverbial hot cakes and I love hearing from all my new readers. Thanks for taking a chance on me! Now to…
Read MoreWorking with my Plant List
I’m a month and a half to my deadline, so things are a little frantic here! I thought I’d share with you where I’m at in the process. Anyone who’s followed my blog knows that I’m not one of those “sit down and write the book from start to finish” kind of writers. How I…
Read MoreMove Over, Fifty Shades of Grey!
This has been such an amazing weekend! A couple of months ago, Amazon contacted me to tell me they wanted to feature one of my self-pubbed backlist books, Secret Lives, in a special promotion. I forgot all about it until I checked my Kindle sales report a few days ago and saw that Secret Lives…
Read MoreTV Ad for The Good Father in the United Kingdom
This popped up in my mailbox this morning. The Good Father is now available in the United Kingdom (and Ireland and Australia, etc) and my publisher sent me this short but to-the-point ad that will be running on British television for a couple of weeks. I think they did a great job of capturing the…
Read MoreChatting with my Readers
For those of you who missed it (and didn’t want to miss it!), here is the live chat I did through BookTrib.com last week. Readers could join in through a ‘chat roll’ and ask me questions. It’s an hour long, so watch as much or as little as you like. Enjoy!
Read MoreThe Printable Booklist for You!
Like the view? We just got in from the Surf City (NC) pier, where John filmed surfers and I snapped this shot with my phone. I’m allowed to play when I finish 4000 words each day. Deadline’s coming! But the real point of this post is to remind my readers that I have information on…
Read MorePublication Day: The Good Father is Here!
My favorite day of the year! After twelve months of plotting, writing, rewriting, and rewriting again, here it is: The Good Father! Usually I feel some anxiety along with excitement as I wonder how my readers will respond to my new story, but the early reviews have been so enthusiastic that all I feel today…
Read MoreSneak Peek at the United Kingdom Cover for The Good Father
Quite a different look from the North American cover. I like them both. I love Bella, the little four-year-old waif in The Good Father, and I love her little wings. I’ve already seen some wonderful early reviews of this book by my fantabulous UK readers. I can’t wait till the end of May when The…
