Registration is open for Book Lover's Con!



Hey everyone!

Man, the people at Book Lover's Con (Formerly RT) have been major teases this year! But finally, they opened registration to the public.

What's awesome is that not only is the registration almost $200 cheaper than RT was, (only $395), they'll also be holding raffles for those who register. Right now, the raffle prize is a full refund on your registration.

Later, they're going to let me raffle off taking a reader to Oceana for a fancy New Orleans dinner, but that's not as cool as a free registration, so I totally understand if you want to jump in on this early. You can register HERE.

Also, check out the list of attending authors. There are so many huge names that I'm going to be in full fangirl mode the whole time.

I also highly recommend signing up for the con's newsletter and following them on social media, because there are going to be a lot more giveaways going on before the con.
I am so excited to do another event in New Orleans! I went to RT back in 2014, and aside from the joy of hanging out with readers and authors, I loved that city so much. And the food was so good I cried. Probably why my raffle prize is literally food, lol.

BOOK NEWS:

One Bite Per Night is still on sale for 69 cents, so if you didn't have a chance to get it, grab it now!



In other book news, I passed the halfway mark of Hearts of Metal Book 7. I might actually beat my deadline this time and be able to squeeze in time to get the next Brides of Prophecy book written before it's time to start the first book in the shiny new, SECRET series!

LIFE NEWS

So I had a disaster followed by a miracle. My four year old Toshiba laptop started falling apart. Literally. The keyboard was held in by a piece of cardboard, and cracks started forming in the chassis. Even the corner BROKE OFF!

I was terrified that it would die before I could save up for a new one. Thankfully, between donations from friends and readers, selling huckleberries to grandma and getting extra assignments from the day job, I was able to get a new one.
I am in tears of gratitude for all the help.

Here is my new work machine.


Here's hoping this one lasts me at least four years as well!
And now I need to put it work and get some writing done!
Until next time,
((Hugs))

Regency vampire romance, One Bite Per Night is 69 cents for a limited time!



Hey all, I just spotted that my regency vampire romance, One Bite Per Night is on sale for 69 cents on Amazon. It's one of my Sourcebooks titles, so I have no idea how long the sale will be going.

So you better snag it while you can HERE.

I confess that this book is very special to me and is one of my favorites. If I had to marry any of my regency vampires, Vincent from One Bite Per Night would be my choice.

Want to feature Tempting Beat on your blog?



Okay, first off I want to share what's the best news of the month. I seem to have gotten my writing groove back! That means I'll be done with Hearts of Metal book 7 by the first week of August. THEN I hope to get going on the next Brides of Prophecy novel before I get started on the first book of the NEW SERIES I JUST GOT SIGNED FOR!
I'm still not allowed to say what it will be about, but I can say that there will be 5 books!

Next news is that my virtual tour for Tempting Beat kicks off on the 11th. If you want to feature my book or review it, you can sign up HERE.
Hosts and those who visit the spots on the tour will be entered to win a $15  gift certificate for Boroughs Publishing groups books.

Misc news:

Oh my goodness, I had so much fun at the Dead & Company show. If my next Hearts of Metal novel didn't take place mostly in winter, I'd have yet another scene set at the Gorge. This time, we could see it from our campsite!


And the view of the stage at sunset was epic:



Personal Stuff:

Life has been going pretty well. Aside from stealing exactly 4 drags over a two day period, I've been staying off the cigarettes. Making my own vape juice has really helped with that. I invented a new flavor: Honeyduckle! (It's honeydew and honeysuckle).

My son started a job at a grocery store this week and I'm hella proud of him.

On the not so great news, I think my laptop is on its last legs. It did get a new lease on life when we upgraded the RAM, but I've had to replace the keyboard twice and now the new keyboard glitches out and pixels are dying on the screen. I have a USB keyboard ready for when the keyboard fails, but with book sales being down, I had to spend my backup laptop fund on keeping up with my dental debt and student loan payments.


So, I gave in and set up a Ko-Fi account. If you feel like chipping in three bucks, here's the link: https://www.ko-fi.com/V7V7G3RE

Of course, I prefer to sell books, but I had a lot of nonreader friends who asked me to set up something else.

Anyway, I rambled more than I expected. Next week, I'll share the blog tour stops and some other news!

Thank you so much for being one of my readers!
((Hugs))
