Book Reunion!

Friday, November 5th, 2021

Once upon a time, there were a BUNCH of really great e-publishers selling all flavors of romance. Three of these publishers were at or near the top of everyone’s go-to list. Then, in the span of less than two years, those publishers (Samhain, Loose Id, and Liquid Silver Books) went out of business.

The writers belonging to those houses had to reassess. Including yours truly.

I am currently experimenting with the self-publishing route. But what about:

  • Kayelle Allen
  • Betty Bolte
  • Charlie Cochrane
  • Susanna Eastman
  • Thursday Euclid
  • PG Forte
  • Ann Gimpel
  • Jenna Ives
  • Becca Jameson
  • Regina Kammer
  • Gail Koger
  • Lynn Lorenz
  • Clancy Nacht
  • Neil S. Plakcy
  • Marianne Rice
  • Laurel Richards
  • Megan Slayer
  • Jeanne St. James
  • Trinity
  • Renee Wildes
  • Wendi Zwaduk
  • and the Great Allie Ritch?

Well, Allie Ritch tracked us down and and got our info and compiled it into a blog post. Organized by category AND including blurbs and purchase links. It’s kind of amazing and you should definitely check it out:

Ohhhhkay

Friday, October 23rd, 2020

First, thanks to a reader looking for a copy of Touching Fire: Paul’s Dream, I have learned that Liquid Silver Books/Publishing is no longer in business and Paul’s Dream is apparently out of print. sigh

But! Silver lining: I get to revise the book, which is something I’ve wanted to do for a very long time. So… yay?

Second, Yahoo!Groups is shutting down, which means my newsletter/mailing list will be gone come December. I…don’t really see a silver lining here. People can subscribe to my blog, but sometimes I put life stuff in there. I have a Tumblr, but that account is pure chaos. I have Twitter, but it’s, well, uh, Twitter. The Yahoo!Groups newsletter was strictly for book and contest news. All business so that your inbox wouldn’t be filled with personal/political/reblogged art of hot guys and Marvel memes.

I’m thinking of switching to MailChimp. What do you xudes think of MailChimp? Do you have a preference for another service? If so, let me know, yeah?

And now, finally, something cool.

As promised (months and months ago) here is the cover reveal for the third edition of Want Me—

What do you think? Since this will be the third edition, but with very few changes to the text inside, I decided to blend elements of the covers from the first and second editions. Check it out:

The base image:

Then, the color scheme:

Cool, yeah? I also added some shooting stars because you can never have too many shooting stars. Unless you’re one of those poor bastards in “Day of the Triffids.” If so, Walker’s brand of magic is the least of your problems. O.O

I am currently working on the final draft of Last Heartbeat: Flow. The book now has a cover. Which I designed. All by myself. But that reveal will be later. 😉

Edit: Just found out I can’t even send a message to my newsletter subscribers that there will soon be no newsletter. wtf?

Wear a mask.

Vote.

"Paul’s Dream" is now available!

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

Note: This blog was originally published on my MySpace blog, October 1, 2007.

My novel, Paul’s Dream, is now available at Liquid Silver Books!  Woot!  Here are the details–

Title and incredible cover: 

Paul’s Dream

Purchase Paul's Dream

 

Where to get it: 

 http://www.liquidsilverbooks.com/books/paulsdream.htm

 

Blurb:

Paul Graham is content with his life. An up-and-coming lawyer, he has no time to dwell on the mazes, puzzles, and riddles he solves while asleep. He has no interest in dreams, or anything that might derail his career.

Until Kian shows up. Sensual, playful, he claims that Paul rescued him four years ago. Now he’s determined to repay him with the one thing he knows best: sex laced with… magic.

Kian is unlike any man Paul has encountered. He won’t go away, for one. The fact that Paul doesn’t remember him doesn’t deter his mission of seduction in the least. But soon enough, Paul finds that this strange, carnal creature has the ability to melt his ice with a touch, to bring out a sweetness Paul didn’t even know he had.

As Kian becomes a part of his life, Paul finds himself more and more attached. Forgotten dreams, buried memories, and the dangerous obsession of another conspire to tear them apart. Is he strong enough to endure a trial by fire in order to keep them together?

You can read more about Paul’s Dream on my website. There, you can also read an excerpt, test your skills as a dream walker, and learn about my contest. I hope you like the novel. I’ve been looking forward to this release for a long time and now that it’s here I’m both excited and… completely terrified.

Purchase Paul's Dream

Purchase Paul’s Dream at Liquid Silver Books.

Paul’s Dream has a cover!

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

Note: This blog was originally published on my MySpace blog, September 4, 2007.

I’ve just gotten my cover for Paul’s Dream, and it’s perfect. Anne Cain did a spectacular job working the fire and ice theme from the novel into the art, and as soon as I could I plastered it all over my website. The first look anyone besides Anne and I got was at the End of Summer Blowout chat that I did on Labor Day, which goes to show that you never know what’s going to happen at those sort of events. 🙂

Okay, enough rambling! Check out the cover I’ve been raving about:

Mmmm. Can’t wait for October. Paul’s Dream should be available then from Liquid Silver Books.

So I recently signed a contract with Liquid Silver Books, and I think the other LSB authors might be hazing me. lol. At any rate, I’ve been tagged by Lisa Andel, so here’s the quiz thing–

Here are the rules:

a. Each player lists 8 facts/habits about themselves.

b. The rules of the game are posted at the beginning before those facts/habits are listed.

c. At the end of the post, the player then tags 8 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog.

Here are 8 facts/habits about me:

1. I’m addicted to anime.

2. In any given anime, it’s a pretty sure bet that I’ll fall in love with the most psychotic character featured in it.

3. I know that butterflies taste with their feet, but I have no idea where I picked up this information. I’m still hoping it’ll come in handy someday.

4. At the moment I’m obsessed with apples. I blame Death Note.

5. I’ve been licked by a stranger on three separate occasions. And not in a good way.

6. On the Fourth of July, I discovered that when making hot sauce from scratch, Margarita mix is a pretty good substitute for lemon juice, providing the mix contains tequila.

7. I believe that Pocky is the food of the gods.

8. I absolutely despise these chain letter-quiz-things, so I’m breaking rule c and not tagging eight other people. Yeah, you heard me. I’m a rebel and that’s how I roll.

Woot! Made a Sale!

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

Note: This blog was originally published on my MySpace blog, June 8, 2007.

My novel, Paul’s Dream, has just been accepted by Liquid Silver Books. It should go live in around 3-4 months. How cool is that? Incubi, a magical world, and one straight-laced lawyer. It’s much much fun.

Curious? Here’s a “rough” book trailer:


Nice, ya? It’s the first vid made by yLove, so it’s kind of a collector’s item. 😉 Once I get a cover, it’ll be worked into the video. Definitely looking forward to that. Man! I am so psyched! Tequila shots for all!
