#TBT Mac’s Journey: What Mac did after Kate left PART 1
Hello all you fab readers! So this is a little back story that has never appeared anywhere before. It starts at the end of Climax but just prior to the Epilogue in the book. I did this because I started to wonder what Mac's journey was after he and Kate split up. This...
#TBT When Kate Met Grace
I’ve had readers ask me how Kate and Grace met and I thought that I’d go directly to my characters for this #TBT glimpse into their fun exchanges! It all started at an art showing in the Spring of 2000. Before Facebook, before Twitter, before iPhones. Life was a...
Should I Promote My Book or Buy New Shoes?
As much as I sometimes kvetch about the publishing industry, my job and trying to maneuver around outrageous client egos, my friends in the freelance publicity sector always know how to shake me out of moments of self-pity with a good laugh. When it comes to marketing...
Mac Book Cover & Title Reveal – Need Your Help!
Hey dear readers! So I’m in the process of creating the cover for Mac’s book and I’d love to get your feedback. The title is sort of tentative, sometimes I love it and sometimes I don’t, but I’d love your take on that too. Let me know which one(s) you vote for! If you...

No, I Didn’t Say Till Death Do Us Part
I have a friend who does freelance publicity, she's a brave soul. Back when I did freelancing (before my New York publishing days) I was never at the mercy of people who, hmmm, for lack of a better term, went off their meds. With so many people writing books, it's a...
Shirtless Hot Guys
So, here's a funny thing. I had these trading cards made up a while ago (some of you may have gotten them either mailed to you or as digital downloads). Anyway, there was just one card that was shirtless. Of course it was Mac because you know, that boy is always up to...
The Week of Ridiculous Expectations
Maybe it’s because it’s Easter and people are eating *way* too much chocolate but I have found this week, in particular, to be quite entertaining. And by entertaining I mean that I’ve spent most of it ferreting emails or calls from people who went off their meds and...
The Importance of Writing for Your Market – Seriously.
So I was reading through a manuscript last week and it’s a young adult dystopian, futuristic novel, which is a super hot genre right now with Hunger Games, Divergent, all that good stuff, so I was super excited when I heard we might be working with this...
