\"\"<\/a>Welcome! The bite of autumn is in the air. I’m not very happy. I’m hoping for another warm stretch before the snow flies.<\/p>\n

Favorite Song of the Week ~<\/strong><\/span> In direct contrast to last week’s song, I give you Taylor Swift’s We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.\u00c2\u00a0 If you don’t yet know, Taylor is known for writing breakup songs after splitting with her famous boyfriends. This one is reportedly about Jake Gyllenhaal. \u00c2\u00a0It was filmed with one camera in one take, so keep that in mind: <\/object>\u00c2\u00a0I love it, but what’s with her band wearing Furry costumes?<\/p>\n

Work in Progress News ~<\/strong> <\/span>I moved a few scenes around on Dean’s story. I think I tried to add too many dramatic scenes in a row, and they\u00c2\u00a0started to clash. Not much word count this week, I’ve been busy with the part time job. Let’s hope the stars align next week!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Backlist News ~<\/strong><\/span> Did you know that you can buy one of my paperback books, and get an ebook version free? Details are at Dark Mountain Books.<\/p>\n

Industry News ~<\/strong> <\/span>Big news from Amazon, as they announced what I hinted at last week. Kindle Paperwhite<\/a> will be available soon for $119, and they’re also showing off two new Kindle Fire models. Kobo also announced<\/a> new ereaders, including a backlighted device, and a tablet. Isn’t this an exciting time to be a reader? Also big news in the DOJ Ebook Settlement. A judge has approved the settlement, so now three US publishers will have to negotiate new contracts with e-book retailers, giving them the power to discount at will. Will be interesting to see how this plays out<\/p>\n

Search Term of the week aka How People Found My Websites ~<\/strong> <\/span>This week it was “tall josephine sexy”. I can usually figure out why terms found me, but that one stumped me.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Hero Quote ~<\/strong><\/span> Marcus, from Position Secured:<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was damn hard to concentrate on that perp when I knew you were there. I don\u2019t know how many times I wondered if you were naked under that robe before I focused on my job.\u201d\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Like the cinecover? Pretty cool, huh? Thanks to Booknibbles <\/a>for animating all my covers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
What I’m reading ~<\/span> <\/strong>No time for anything new this week, so I’ve been re-reading some of my favorites. This one, Envy, is one of my favorites from my favorite author. So many twists in this romantic suspense that I couldn’t put it down if I wanted to.
