Yuck

OMG it's hot here. I mean swealtering, unbearable hot...or maybe I'm just a wuss :) I have a dozen things I need to do outside, including painting my trim and power washing the house, not to mention weeding my garden, but it just ain't gonna happen. I'd much rather sit in the ac and catch up on my reading! What are your July favs? I'm looking forward to Nalini Singh's book and of course Janet Evanovich (still waiting for it to come out on Kindle). What's on your buy list?

Of course, there's a ton of great characters...sigh. So hard to choose!

Oy, what a week. It went from sixty and freezing to to swealtering and raining :) On top of that my sewer decided to backup this weekend (yes, AGAIN) and I'm considering the very pleasant notion of getting in my car and just driving away! Instead, I'm sitting here waiting for the plumbers to call back and tell me they can't possibly get here for another week...sigh. Next week I'm going out of town with my mother. I'm staying in a hotel where I don't have to do anything but sleep and eat!

At least a few new shows have started for the summer season. Are you all watching True Blood? What do you think of it? Can't wait for Monk and Psych to start :)

Enjoy your week!

Update to the Update :)

Just heard that Salvatore's story has been moved up again :) The new release date is April 2010...yeah! I also wanted to let you know I set up a facebook page so I'd love to have you friend me. So far I'm stumbling around like a total dork so if I send you some weird message or manage to make the stupid thing self destruct please be patient!!

Have a good one,
Alex

Road trip

I'm back from my journey. I took my oldest son to visit a few colleges he's looking at for grad school. We had a fabulous time and I think he's made his choice, but I have to admit I'm not much on driving and seeing the country :( Don't get me wrong, I LOVE to travel and I love to sight see, but I prefer to fly and get to my destination so I can enjoy. The drive to get there...well, not so much!

Where's your favorite travel spot???

Give Away!

To celebrate new release date for Darkness Unleashed I'm going to give everyone a chance to win an autographed copy of the coverflat! Just share you favorite June read (It doesn't have to be a book released in June!). I think mine was Ilona Andrews!

sneak peek


New Release Date!!

Just heard from my editor that the date for Darkness Unleashed has been moved up to November 2009 and Salvatore's story will be released June 2010...Yeah! I also have the new cover. I sent the image to my web mistress so she'll soon have it loaded. I have to say that I love it. My oldest son thinks the guy looks like Clive Owen. I'll let you all decide!!

Have a good one,
Alex

New Paras

Oh, I love my Kindle but it's getting me in soooo much trouble :) It's way to easy for me to impulse buy, and I have a dozen new books that I can't wait to read! I did notice during my buying frenzy that the para field has certainly widened over the past few years. It use to be witches and then vamps with an ocassional werewolf. Now there's angels and demons and ghosts....I think it's great. What about all of you? Do you enjoy the different species or are you more of a purest??? Right now I'm loving me some demons!

Best,
Alex
