I know I've been boring lately, sort of like the weather here, which is rain, rain, and more rain. I've to read Virtually His and Virtually Hers back-to-back and so I'm doing this with pen and paper by my side because, you know, I'm trying to get VHers out by October and I want it to be as good as possible, without any wrong timeline and weird leaps of plot logic.
While it rains, I make no money. While it rains, I get to sit and read my own books and this task is not the same as sitting and reading other people's books. Oh, by the way, last week's contest ended on Friday and I'll be choosing the winner for the box of books and calendar from RT in the next few days.
One other piece of trivial news. I forgot that Big Bad Wolf, being a self-pubbed project, isn't recognized by RWA as a Real Book, and so, it won't be available for the public during the Literacy Signing at RWA in DC this coming July. I find this kind of amusing, since all proceeds from the signing goes to charity, so my ten or so DONATED self-pubbed books would have been sold for a GOOD CAUSE and when it's a donation, who cares whether the book's publisher is on the approved list, right? LOL. But, anyway, mea culpa for the mistake of telling you guys BBW would be available. I'll still be at the signing, but with...uh...Real Books, heh.
You can still get your copy of BBW, don't worry--you just have to catch me outside the RWA event to get the book. I have been known to pull up a chair and table with a stack of books, so watch out ;-). For those of you who are interested in getting together as a group, please let me know. I'd be delighted to meet with you and chitchat about books. I'll also have copies of BBW for you then, of course.
So. Tell me big spoilers in books you're reading. I know some of you are full of news about the new Ward "Brothers" book, bedecked in leather and all. Opinions? Any new books for my evergrowing list?

Oh, that's just silly. A donation to a good cause is still a donation. RWA should let that pass.
Hey, congrats on selling #500 of BBW!
I finally remembered to go in and order my copy and got it last week! I'll have to take it to RWA.
Congrats on selling 500 copies!!!! yeah.
hugs,

Congrats on the 500 copies of BBW Jenn! How awesome is that? I think the whole thing of not getting to use it at RWA is rather silly but I guess they have rules for a reason. I wish I could get mine signed by you. Maybe one day... Hugs! Lisa
Craziness! Ah well. I haven't read the latest Lover yet. I dunno why. Maybe because I just refound Lara Adrian and am for now kind of enjoying her.
Plus I was dying to read Feehan's Burning Wild, which uh, well... not my favorite by her.
As you know, I am in a major reading funk and can't seem to find anything that is fresh and exciting. Jed, where are you?! ;)
John hooks up with Xhex but only for a night for she gets abducted by Lash.....John ain't happy. I bet his story is coming next
