I’m tickled to announce that the official release day for ENEMY OF THE FAE has finally arrived!

Sometimes it’s important for me to clear my head. I can get so caught up in the writing and publishing process that I lose all perspective. Things are easier on this front now that a Certain Highlander is working a 9-5 job. It’s been years since either of us did that (we’ve been freelancing for about a decade or more), but I’ve come to appreciate certain things about that...

Recently my beloved editor L.J. Sellers told me she could no longer take in freelance work. As her own novels have exploded in popularity, it has grown more and more difficult (and less profitable) for her to take time out of her schedule to edit for someone else. I completely understand.

Along with the digital revolution and the advent of social networking came spam. If people figure out a way to communicate, some of those people will want tomake money from it.

But I really don’t use Facebook and Twitter to sell my books for quite a few reasons, but the biggest of which is this: Promospam is bloody...

Well, it’s the beginning of 2012, and it’s the time for reflection on the past year and looking forward to the new. I don’t do yearly resolutions (I find it more useful to do them on a daily basis), but suddenly I find myself looking years into the future. I guess running a business will do that to a girl. As I did last year, I want to share where I am, a bit about my plans, and...
