In an effort to help solidify the relationship between the Argonauts and the Misos, Orpheus thought it would be a great idea to hang out with Nick and have a March Madness party. Orpheus has shared their conversation with me and insisted I share it with you all.

I can’t show you the rest of their conversation as it was quite colorful to say the very least. However, I’m sure you all can imagine how the conversation went between them.

Speaking of Argonauts, Titus’s story next, March 26th actually!

TITUS—To most his gift seems like … Read more »

First the quick note:

If you tried to email me through my webpage contact form recently…apologies! I just learned yesterday that it wasn’t working and messages were getting bounced. It’s all fixed now though, so contact away! I’d love to hear from you!

Now on to the Kewl New Contests…

Are you following me on Twitter? Well, you should be! I run random contests every now and then. Last night I gave away 3 ARCs of MARKED to the first three people who could email me something about Greek mythology I didn’t know. (Don’t send them now…I already picked three … Read more »

Wow, I can’t believe it’s Saturday already! This has been a really crazy (but good!) week for me. The awesome Publisher’s Weekly review of MARKED, the anthology invitation from Kensington, the RITA nominations (squee!!!) for STOLEN FURY and finally the PLA Conference. Last night I had dinner with my editor at this cute little Irish pub in North Portland and it was so much fun. A great topper to the entire week. She was very excited about the RITA news and is even more excited about the RELEASE of MARKED in just a few short weeks. This awesome energy is … Read more »

It’s spring break here, which means my gremlins are home 24/7 until next Monday. I’m trying to get some writing done while they’re home, but it’s a struggle. Over the weekend we were here (see photo on right) at Black Butte Ranch in Central Oregon with friends who own a house there. Saturday the guys took the kids golfing (it was 66 degrees). Sunday my girlfriend and I took them snowboarding 15 miles up the road at the Hoodoo Ski Area. Where else but in Oregon can you go golfing one day and skiing the next, all within 15 miles … Read more »

It’s not the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, BUT…I feel like giving away an ARC of MARKED today in honor of the holiday! (My Eternal Guardians are definitely not Irish, but I am, so what I say goes.)

Here’s how we’ll do it. I’m going to list off five questions. You have to find the answers. (Google, anyone?) Come back here, post your answers in the comment section. Everyone who posts the five correct answers will be entered into the drawing. Easy stuff.

Since my “guys” are Greek (not Irish), the five questions deal with Greek … Read more »

Happy Saturday! I’m still having some computer issues – grrrrrrrr – and didn’t have time to work them out this week so my blogging was nil. Right now I’m on the netbook so I can post this fabulous Saturday Snippet.

Today’s topic is Black Moments. I admit, I’m a sucker a deep, dark, emotional black moment. I love them! The more emotional, the better!

This one comes from my May release, MARKED. It’s not THE black moment(that would give too much away!), but it’s the lead-in to it. I hope you enjoy!

Oy…it’s been a while since I’ve been here. Sorry! I have a good excuse.

Two weekends ago I went to an awesome weekend writers workshop and left my laptop at home. (And if you’ve never listened to Michael Hauge, and you’re a writer, your really should find where he’s speaking and go listen. The man is amazing.) My kids played on my laptop while I was gone and somehow downloaded a virus which has totally mucked up my system. After a week of trying to clean it up I have nearly everything working except for Google. And since blogger works … Read more »
