Oh, look at that!
She lives!
Lately, I’ve been sinking my teeth into books by A. Lee Martinez and Nora Roberts. (One of my co-workers gave me a bag full of Nora Roberts and Danielle Steel, and even though they aren’t exactly to my taste, it’s not like I have endless money to throw around on securing new books.) Monster and Gil’s All-Fright Diner by A. Lee Martinez get two very enthusiastic thumbs up from me. I’m also dying for the release of Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters, and since last we met, I’ve devoured the remaining couple of Jacqueline Carey’s books that I hadn’t managed to finish. I love her to pieces and I totally don’t mind doing anything to support her writing more books.
On my own writing front, I’m approximately 26,000 words into the initial first draft of what I’m lovingly calling Four Bitches and a Funeral; a story of four sisters and how their relationship changes after their father dies. (Oh shut up. It’s not a total chick story.)
And now I must away to my “real life”.

Hey Becky,
I ran across your blog and saw that you’re looking forward to reading “Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters.” I hope you love it! I work for the publisher, and I was wondering if you wanted to receive info and updates about the Quirk Classics series. If you do, just send us an email at QuirkClassics@gmail.com.
FYI: We’re announcing a new title in the series at the end of the month, so you might want to stay tuned for a message about Quirk Classic #3.
Thanks for talking about our book, and happy reading!
