Now that we're all done stuffing ourselves with turkey and pie, Black Friday and Cyber Monday are upon us. Oh, and Christmas. And New Years. And-- National Flashlight Day? did I read that right? Oh, it falls on the Winter Solstice. Clever. Anyways, there are lots of things to celebrate, and I'm contributing! Check it out: a Rafflecopter giveaway Awesome, right? Who couldn't use $120? Or books! Or any of the other goodies being given away! This is my particular contribution: No, not the puppy. Puppies don't make good Christmas gifts. They tear things apart, pee on everything, grow into dogs, then turn into old dogs. That's something you've really got to plan for and commit to! But I digress. (My sister in law must be rubbing off on me.) But yeah, I'm giving away a Kindle edition of Beauty is the Beasts and a pair of wolf socks. (I also may have ordered myself some as well, heh!)  Good luck! I'd love it if one of my readers won! (If y...

I love doing author interviews, so when Zach put out the word that he needed to do a few to gain more exposure for the box set he's part of, I was all about it. I've read a few of his book and have loved every word!  Zach brings some awesome characters to life and creates brilliant worlds for them to live in and explore. In the case of his Hall of Doors series, each book is set in a brand new world! Webley and the World Machine is steampunk, Kip and the Grinders is cyberpunk (technopunk?), and his contribution to the Wings of the Wicked box set, Arija and the Burning City, is urban fantasy! So without further ado, here's my interview with Zachary Paul Chopchinski: Q:   Do you have a writing ritual to get you into the zone, or do you dive right in? A: Caffeine and music. If I don’t have both of those then I just can’t write. Q: If you could live in the Hall of Doors world (or Gabriella's!) would you? What kind of role would you have? A: Oh...

Introduction by Jennifer Zamboni- Hello friends, new and old! I signed up to help my fellow author, Rebekah Jonesy, launch her new book with a blog tour!  If you're unfamiliar with me, I'm an urban fantasy author with a soon-to-be published book of my own. I write mostly about werewolves, vampires, and the fae, and I love sarcasm. Feel free to look around my blog and my other pages AFTER you read the interview. (& perhaps after you preorder Clay and Blood and buy the 1st book, Moss and Clay!)  Now, without further ado, I give you: Interview with the Author! Q: Who is your favorite supporting character in your upcoming release & why? A: Pitch, without a doubt. He plays a big role in this book, mostly as a friend and teacher. My main character is a new formed, like a newborn but she wasn't birthed, she was created instead. As young as she is, about three months old, she still has a lot to learn. Pitch is old, older than he will admit. ...

Haha, hi! Yeah, I still exist. I'm still writing. And editing. And momming. Oh, and reading! I'm getting down to business. Beauty is the Beast, the first book in my Beasts Among Us series, is currently with my editor. She's almost done with her first run through! She's given me lots of great feedback . . . and corrected lots of grammar. (I really love/hate commas). I can't wait for everyone to read it! (Psst there's a sneak peek at chapter one in my private Facebook group) Zamboni Pack's Lair I've also hired a cover artist, and guys, she's amazingly talented. Check out Mirella Santana's work here:  http://mirellasantana.com.br /  Especially check out the section services: book covers! Seriously. When I was thinking about publishing years ago, I was browsing DeviantArt, looking for book covers when I stumbled on her little corner of the internet. I fell in love with her stuff, and then I started finding the covers of books I've ...

It was a small room, an office really, with a desk at one end behind which the other occupant sat. On the desk was a monitor screen, which held an image frozen in time. The other occupant...
