Last week I announced that anyone who joined The Novelty Girls Yahoo Group would be entered in a drawing to win a pdf off of one of our backlists.
And the winner is…
Wait for it…
Whine and beg a little because it makes me feel better about myself…
Okay, fine.
The winner is blackroze37!
Yay! Congrats! Email me at crystal [...]

The Insanity That Is Us

So, yesterday, I spent all day at Ebook Love and we were CRAZY!!!!!!!
What with Crystal’s diiiirrrrrrttttyyyy comments and RG’s fabulous excerpts from “Lifting The Veil” (releasing from Ellora’s Cave) we kept the group hot and steamy. Lori denied her true self, and Nonny tried to stay out of it, but now she’s being nibbled [...]

Oh Man!

Are we having some fun over at eBookLove. I just really don’t have time for a long post. Too much is going down. There are excerpts, contests, and fun galore going on. So, come on over and join us.
Happy Saturday!

Announcement: eBookLove Chat

Hey guys!

Learning Curve

Over at Romance Divas, I have a Journey’s thread called Learning Curve. Things I’ve learned about myself, and the process of writing and being a writer (which are not at all the same thing!)
I thought I’d share with you what I’ve learned about myself in the past few months:
1. I’m a writer not a plumber

Plots I Don’t Read But That Might Be Fun to Write

Thirteen Plots I Should Stay Away From
1. Secret babies. Could be fun if the secret baby daddy was the bad guy who had an epiphany and reformed. Been done? No doubt.
2. Secret babies with sheik, Greek tycoon, Italian plyaboy daddies et al.
3. Beta males. Really. What’s the point?
4. Blackmailed into marriage secretaries/nannies/personal assitants. Oh, the [...]

Riding the Whirlwind

The past few months have been extremely hectic for me. Some of y’all who read my blog know that Morgan and I moved a friend (who, um, later became a bit more *cough*) in back in March because he needed a place to stay after breaking off an abusive relationship. Cue a roller-coaster ride of [...]

Finding Your Balance

So after knowing yourself and trusting yourself and admitting you’re a little crazy and occasionally hear voices in your head…what’s next? I think there is something that as writers we all need, we all strive for, but often remains elusive. Balance.
A little crazy is one thing-it helps our creativity to be able to ‘walk into [...]

Contesting!

The winner from last week’s scavenger hunt contest is Barbara Huff! Congrats on your win!
And I’m going to do another contest this week. Why? Because I like giving stuff away.
This contest is even easier than last week’s. What do you have to do? Just sign up for The Novelty Girls Yahoo Group by next Monday [...]

Would The Real Jennifer McKenzie Please Stand Up?

Nonny wrote about trust. Dayna wrote about acceptance. I’m going to write about insanity. Yes, I’m sure you’re all surprised to find that I’m crazier than a loon. I’ve got my own personal insanity that’s like a comfortable shoe. It’s mine and I probably should throw it out, but I [...]
