« Previous EntriesFavorites Characters!
This week, in another exciting edition of Novelty-ness, we’re talking about our favorite characters in our own work.
I’d have a tough time picking myself, which is why I made sure I didn’t have to.
That’s right.
This week I cheated.
SO to kick this week off extra special-style, I have a totally made of awesome [...]
Most Useful Writing Advice
This week we’ll be talking about the most useful piece of writing advice we’ve ever been given.
Mine?
Write every day.
No piece of advice, warning, encouragement, or flattery about my writing has ever been as important as that one. The reason it’s so important is because the more you write, the more you train your brain to [...]
The Road to Perdition
This week we’re talking about the first romance novels we ever read. That one book that sucked us in and lead us down the road to perdition that brought us to the writing of smut.
My beginning was innocent enough. My mom gave me a brief synopsis of a book she was reading, so when she [...]
Aaaaand…we’re back!
This week we’re resuming business with our pretty new design and giving away goodies to celebrate.
For my contest, I’ll give you all until the end of the week to comment, and then I’ll pick a random name from those who commented to send the book to. Check back in the comments section of this post [...]

Ah, Summer…
This week we’re talking about the best parts of summer. From summer memories to just plain old summer fun.
For me, Labor Day (or Labour Day as Dayna spells it–because it’s a totally different holiday if you add the “u”) signals the end of summer. Maybe not the end of the hot whether, but school kicks [...]
Giving Away Stuff
We’re doing a book give away spree this week at TNG. Everyday is a new chance to win spiffy stuff!
So, today, I have a copy of Dark Deeds at Night’s Edge by Kresley Cole, and it’s going to a commenter on this post.
I’ll give you all until the end of the week to comment, [...]
I Screamed Like A Little Girl
This week at TNG, we’ll be talking about fears. Enjoy the fright-fest.
So, my biggest fear? Failure and public humiliation. And spiders.
My agent calls last week to tell me my editor at Kensington wants to give me a three book deal. Do I jump up and down and scream? Nope. I was calm and collected, discussed [...]
My Sporting Event
So, my best friend loves the Tour de France. And college football. She goes to games, she watches obsessively on television.
Me? I generally hates sports. All sports. I’ll watch the Superbowl if someone invites me to a party. And only if I’m pretty sure there will be awesome food at the party. Other than that? [...]
