Have Some Questions? What Some Answers?

20 April 2010 Jackie 0

I’ve been mentioning it over the last couples days on Facebook (yes, I am active on FB and often have random contests there), but I wanted to officially announce it here (and to get some help). While I’m at RT next week, I’ll be conducting in-person interviews with a few […]

Can you introduce yourself to my readers a little?
I’m a long distance runner writer. I’ve been writing and selling fiction and non-fiction for more than, arg–here it comes, more than 30 years. My first novel was a kids’ SF story. Then I jumped into romance, but that turned out to be too tame for me. I morphed into romantic suspense and gradually began adding paranormal elements.

At the Gates of Darkness by R. Feist

I was asked to review At the Gates of Darkness by Raymond Feist, and since I usually enjoy a good fantasy novel and had never read this author, I was anxious to get started. To protect their world from the savage demon hordes, the Black Sorcerer Pug and Midkemia’s clandestine […]

Want to spend a single day at RT?

20 April 2010 Jackie 0

If you’re like me and live relatively close to Columbus, Ohio and are not planning on going to the full RT Booklovers Convention (April 28th through May 2nd), the convention does offer day passes if you do want to go for just a day, plus there’s a couple of events […]

Look Who’s Going to RT: Kate Douglas

19 April 2010 Jackie 3

Can you introduce yourself to my readers a little?
Hi all! I’m Kate Douglas, author of both regular paranormal romance and erotic paranormal romance. My Wolf Tales series kicked off the Aphrodisia imprint at Kensington Publishing in January 2006, and since then I’ve had either a new Wolf Tales or Chanku novella in a Sexy Beast anthology every three months. The 18th book–Sexy Beast VIII, just released this month. I also have a new mass market paranormal series from Kensington’s Zebra imprint called The DemonSlayers. The first book in that series, DemonFire, released February 23. The next one, HellFire, comes out in September. As far as me, personally, I’m a 60 year old mother of two, grandmother of five, married to a very patient man (can you imagine living with an author? Scary!) who’s been putting up with me for 38 years now. We live in a little mountain community in northern California, and I can honestly say I’m having the time of my life writing both of my series.

A Rush of Wings by A. Phoenix

From the very first page, A Rush of Wings by Adrian Phoenix had me hooked. I really thought it was going to blow me away in the end but while I thought it was good, I was disappointed a bit because it started super good and just meh by the […]

Losing a Demon and Harrison Winner

Wicked Little Pixie is showing off the cover forSaranna DeWylde’s How to Lose a Demon in 10 Days. No word on when it will be released, but the title does remind me a lot of the Kate Hudson flick, How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days. I wonder if […]
