Books are more fun when we share
Thought I’d share some fun book goings-on with myself and other authors today!
Promo fun
Stop by Night Owl Reviews Suspense today where A Human Element is featured and so am I in a fun Author Q&A interview.
I’m also interviewed this month in the Bucks County Women’s Journal, talking about the power of change. Check out pg. 34 in the PDF or pick up locally. A wonderful magazine promoting women’s business and successes. Visit the BCWJ website.
Plus I love waking up to more five-star reviews for A Human Element on Paranormal Romance Guild and Amazon, by a reader who won the book through my Library Thing giveaway and says it’s a “good mix of sci-fi, mystery and romance…this book grabbed and kept my interest from the get go.” Watch for my short story collection coming soon, featuring characters from A Human Element and new ones from its sequel, A Hidden Element (2013).

I’m thrilled to have been invited as a guest author to my first conference, Farpoint, for their 20th anniversary conference in Timonium, Maryland on February 15 – 17, 2013. This is an annual gathering for fans of all genres and types of imaginative fiction, including media, books and more. Fun to share the event with Lee Arenberg, “Pintel” from Pirates of The Caribbean.
That’s all folks!
Lots of cool doings! I am finally back in commission after slogging through days of being without power due to Hurricane Sandy. Feels good to be back on the grid.
