Bargain Book Days

Here's a book bargain for your summer reading pleasure. Cupid's Quiver is being offered through the end of June for only 99 little pennies! You can find the Kindle edition here. The anthology contains 12 romantic short stories that are sure to tickle your fancy and make you smile. My short story, The Blue Book of Love, is included in this anthology.

Even the stores have Christmas in July sales. Here's a Christmas in June deal. Fifty Shades of Santa, a collection of 12 romantic holiday short stories is on sale, too. It's bargain priced for the Kindle edition at 99 cents, but only through June. You can find it here. My short story, That Old Christmas Magic, is included in this anthology.

Don't you just love a great deal on a book?

Speaking of great deals, I get to go the the Cardinals/Cubs game tonight! The Cards lost last night so I'm hoping they can serve up some sweet revenge tonight. Regardless, I intend to leave my low-carb diet at home to chow down on loaded nachos and sip rum-in-Diet-Coke cocktails.

Sometimes it's just plain wrong to make the "right" choice.

Santa, Baby!

Are you looking for a little Christmas love? Check out Fifty Shades of Santa, 12 Nice (not Naughty) Humorous Holiday Romances. My story, "That Old Christmas Magic" is part of this holiday collection. Fix yourself a cup of hot cocoa (or glass of red-for-Christmas wine) and enjoy. It'll warm your toes and tickle your funnybone.

The book is currently available on Kindle for only $3.99. What a bargain! Click here to order.

Ho-ho-ho!

NaNo 2012--Winner!

It's now official. I validated my novel on the NaNoWriMo website, and received my "Winner" badge.

NaNo is the poster child event for a writer to find both agony and esctasy. Every available minute is spent tapping out words, feeling loads of self-pity, and seeing the computer keyboard as some sort of thought-sucking monster.

When you have to push hard toward any goal, it's not usually much fun. Yet once that goal is finally achieved, what a mighty feeling of accomplishment comes along with it. I'm glad I did NaNo again this year. I'm equally glad it's over.

In other writerly-type news, I received the contract today for a short story I wrote called "That Old Christmas Magic". It will appear in an upcoming anthology entitled, Fifty Shades of Santa, due for release around December 7.

Sounds interesting, doesn't it? I can't wait to read the "naughty or nice" stories filling that Christmas fishnet-stocking stuffer book!
