After a humbling, agonizing dry spell, I'm finally publishing again! It might be DARK that's coming, but it's nice to finally glimpse the release-day light!

Release day is here! Yea!!! Action - Adventure - Disaster - Romantic Suspense fans, gather 'round! There's nothing I can say (other than I read it and loved it!) that is more spectacular than what Carrie Butler has created, so I'll let the product speak for itself. :)

Whew. I'm glad to be posting good news for a change. And as good news goes, this is AWESOME! Carrie Butler has a new book coming in December. To keep all of us in pee-dancing, drooling anticipation , she's revealing the cover and the trailer.  Prepare to be blown away...

I've got some goodies for you! :) Author-, designer- and marketer extraordinaire Carrie Butler released Loyalty , the last book in her Mark of Nexus series this past weekend. She also released the boxed set, which is a steal at only $6.99! These award-winning, flawlessly written books have everything--suspense, romance, humor (definitely humor!). If you haven't read MoN, you're missing out. ;) 

Writing pal Carrie Butler is hosting a  clever bloghop about authors and our reflections on our writing journey.  Participants are charged with writing a letter to our beginner-writer selves, advising the 'green' us and telling us how it will go.  With the author's approval and PK Hrezo's help, Carrie plans to compile the entries into a e-book to encourage and inspire other writers. Dear Melissa [ redacted ],

Woot! It's release day for Carrie Butler's Honesty , Mark of Nexus 2.5—Cole's story. I had the pleasure of reading an ARC, and I loved every minute of it. I'll still keep a hypodermic of Haldol and a straightjacket stashed within reach whenever Cole's around, but I like him much better now. :P

I'm venturing out of my hiatus cave again. This time to (belatedly) mention EJ Wesley's new release and to announce Carrie Butler's newest cover reveal. For the scant few who don't already know (*blush*), EJ published the 5th installment of his Moonsongs novelette series, Vampire's Ball , in late December. Congrats, EJ! Besides the quality writing, I'm partial to the series because it's set in Texas; and I'm partial to book 5 because it takes place in Galveston, a coastal city not far from my Houston home. If you haven't sampled Moonsongs, you're missing out. :) Be sure to visit EJ's blog (he has a tour going on)  and add Vampire's Ball to your Goodreads . Now for the good news from Carrie... Honesty (Mark of Nexus #2.5) Category: New Adult   Genre: Urban Fantasy Book Description: Note: This title is best enjoyed after Strength (Mark of Nexus #1) and Courage (Mark of Nexus #2). Cole Bla...

I'm still on hiatus, but I said I might pop in for something important. A friend's book release qualifies. And in this case, three! Julie Flanders and Lexa Cain both have new releases this week, and they are hosting a blog hop together to celebrate. Julie's The Ghosts of Aquinnah releases today, and Lexa's Soul Cutter releases tomorrow! You can add ' Ghosts ' to your Goodreads here and Soul Cutter here . There's a giveaway, too, so be sure to check their blogs. Today is also release day for Loni Townsend's debut fantasy, Thanmir War .  Loni is one of my critique partners. Unfortunately, I met her too late in the process to finish Thanmir War , but from what I *have* seen, I can assure you it's worth your time. Loni is a talented writer, and I'm blessed to have her as a CP.   The Earth Clan has declared war and a landscaper is at the dead center of it. Derek thinks his chronic headaches are the worst of his...

  To celebrate the release of her second book, Courage , Carrie Butler is visiting my blog today with a guest post on interpreting CP comments. * thinks back over critiques I've sent to Carrie *  0_0   Gulp .  I'm not sure I want to do this.  Um. Carrie? I know you've been working day and night on guest posts for your tour and all, but can we change the topic to something else...? * Carrie glares at me with bloodshot eyes and snarls * Never mind.   Here's Carrie...
