Well, here we are, mid-October already. I guess if I only post once per week the weeks seem to go faster. So far, not enough snow to actually shovel, so I’m still in denial about winter coming. Also, October is the best month for baseball! And my favorite player Derek Jeter is in the post season looking as sexy as ever sigh<\/em> swoon<\/em> They just won the division series, so bring on the championship!<\/p>\n

Favorite Song of the Week ~<\/strong> <\/span>I couldn’t help it.

Work in Progress News ~<\/strong> <\/span>I changed the starting point of this wip three times. Finally I got one that’s perfect. I can always tell when it’s right when the words just flow. Now I’m just hoping the flow keeps flowing.<\/p>\n

\"\"Backlist News ~<\/strong><\/span> All my titles (except At Ease, but that’s the publisher’s choice) are available at iTunes again! Company Ink got a new cover to commemorate the occasion. What do you think? Subtly sexy. Thanks,\u00c2\u00a0Booknibbles!<\/a><\/p>\n

Industry News ~<\/strong> <\/span>You’ve heard of Spotify, a subscription service for music? Well, what do you think about the same concept, but for books? Personally, I’d be all over it. All you can read for one monthly price. I’ll be keeping my eye on this company: Oyster<\/a><\/p>\n

Search Term of the week aka How People Found My Websites ~<\/strong><\/span> Absolutely nothing out of the ordinary this week! Just the usual folks looking for my books for free. Which reminds me of a tweet an author sent out some time ago, but for the life of me I can’t dig it up so I’ll paraphrase: “It takes a barista 3 minutes to make our $6 cup of coffee and we tip him. It takes an author over a year to write a book and we balk at paying $4.99.” Deep thoughts.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

What I’m reading ~<\/strong><\/span> Dreamspinner Press keeps putting their titles up for free for one hour only. I was lucky enough to catch the tweet that announced Heart’s Home. I do love shifters and historical m\/m, so I snatched it up. I’m not finished with it, but so far I’m liking it. Great dialogue and I love how the MCs have their own voices.<\/p>\n

Hero Quote ~<\/strong> <\/span>Are you guys sick of reading my hero quotes? Should I switch to heroine quotes? Bad guy quotes? \u00c2\u00a0Let me know. For now, here’s one from Cody in Wyoming Solace:<\/p>\n

\u00c2\u00a0\u201cI know it\u2019s wrong. You\u2019ve been hurt, and you probably don\u2019t want to have anything to do with\u2026a man. God help me, it doesn\u2019t stop me from wanting you. But I swear I\u2019d never do anything to hurt you.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Okay, now \u00c2\u00a0I’m going to get back to writing. Have a great weekend and week!<\/p>\n\n
