Nalini sings the blue(s) diablo-style
Her hot new UF, with its totally wicked blurb from Patricia Briggs, is coming out shortly. See the sexy countdown? In honor of this, she’s got a whole lot of shaking going on. Right now, she’s giving away a BLUE DIABLO arc. How did I get so lucky? I have NO idea, but my editor [...]
Today’s peeve?
Miracle sperm. Not just in books, movies too. The reason I’m thinking about this — Andres and I watched Baby Mama last week, starring Tina Fey (who I love) and Amy Poehler (who I don’t hate). The movie was funny and offered a lot of laughs; don’t get me wrong. But it’s been bugging me, [...]
The Scratch N Sniff Post
Do you guys remember Scratch N Sniff cards? I was trying to explain the concept of Smell-o-Vision to Andres the other night, who I suspect was convinced I had made the whole thing up on the spot. I was convinced I didn’t, mind you, but I wasn’t armed at the time with the facts and [...]
The next to last post of the year
Hey, everyone. I’m back from Chicago, where I enjoyed a lovely time with Stacy, some delicious pizza, and the hospitality of a driver who knew Chicago like the back of his hand. I was able to sign some books at B&N (and O’Hare airport!), get presents for Andres at Best Buy, and make my way [...]
Chutzpah.
Firstly, sorry to have let Ann have free rein with her blog for a loooong time, what with missing promised updates and whatnot: with the end of year coming and world economics being truly the dismal science these days, I’ve had my plate full. Full, of hotdogs. Healthy hot dogs. And lack of nicotine… though [...]
A much needed fall break (and a contest)
We’re headed to Catemaco this weekend, where we will spend a week at La Finca and explore the magic of the state of Veracruz. Did you know that it’s a town full of witches and warlocks? I intend to make use of this setting in the next Corine Solomon novel I write. More on that [...]
To boldly go… and then whine about it.
The final week is winding down. Looking back on them, the past two and a half weeks have taught me a lot about life without Ann. Firstly, I am used to her company and the very palpable presence of the munchkins. Before Alek returned, I was getting to the point of holding conversations with the [...]
adventures in ann-land
Baby, if you’ve ever wondered, Wondered whatever became of me, I’m waiting on the ground in Cincinnati, Cincinnati, well C-R-A-P. Got kind of tired packing and unpacking, Town to town and up and down the dial Maybe three weeks on the road were never meant to be, But baby think of me once in awhile.
On the home front. More of a side, now, really.
Wednesday morning, 7:57 AM. Woke up to a fishy, salty smell and a rasping on my cheek: cat had decided it was time for me to wake up with a good morning kiss. Tangled in blankets and under two sleepy looking fuzzballs that weigh more than you’d think when they are laying on your legs. [...]
The trip thus far
Getting out of Newark was a nightmare. It was like that Hotel California song. You can check out anytime you like but you can never leave. So it was almost 2am when I landed in San Diego. I stayed in a hotel and made my way to Comic Con the next day. Comic Con is [...]
