If you look really closely at the eye, you can see she's got an eye on Savage Hunger! I was trying to learn how to change eye color in eyes! I did play around with it and I didn't do what it was supposed to! But it kind of did. :) This was Silaynne's original eye.
Silaynne has some neat tutorials on how to do it.
Anyway! I'll keep playing around with it another day! Have to keep writing.
But I used a different technique to change the eye color, made it a little more visible in Dragon Fae....She has very pretty pale green eyes. I didn't want to change that to a bright green, but wanted to make her green eyes stand out a little more. :)
Only 13,000 words to go!!!
I had ARCs of A Howl for a Highlander come in last night, that I didn't realize were sitting next to my front door and figured I'd put out the call on Facebook to see if any reviewers wanted a copy to review, and voila! Within an hour, they were all asked for. I was shocked!!! First, that I got any copies, and 2nd that they went that fast!!!!
I'm so glad everyone is having fun with the wolves!
I expected to be getting requests for days until they were all gone. Shows what I know!
Now I've got to run out to get envelopes to ship them in. I could have sworn I bought two bundles of them, but I probably used all those already!
And...I have to say that about the man who jumped into the tiger's zoo pen--yikes!!!! Was it really worth it?
In my books I talk about the shifters becoming one with their shifter halves, but hey they ARE shifters. So they can do that!
I don't recommend anyone getting that close to a big cat!!! With wolves, which is why I never can understand that people make the comments that wolves will kill people because they don't, cougars and bears do, and tigers and lions do...(jaguars don't)...but you just don't want to pet the big cats. Or bears.
Okay, off to write and then I have to run into town for envelopes.
Have a nice Sunday and remember...if you are not a shifter, and even if you are--a werewolf or jaguar shifter don't belong in a tiger's pen...don't try to pet the big cat. Get a little one.
Or get them in my books. They're hunky and very safe. :)

Because of popular demand, I'm working on The Winged Fae, sequel to The Dark Fae. Oftentimes, I get a lot of fan requests for certain characters, which prompt me to write a sequel about those characters. But this time, the sales are just so phenomenal for The Dark Fae, I'm inspired to write another story in the fae kingdoms.
We're back to South Padre Island in the opening...and one mischievous fae...
What fae would ever be bold enough to enter another fae-claimed territory (although humans think they own it), and believe she would not have to face the consequences of her actions?
An assassin royal winged fae of the Mabara Fae kingdom.
With a message.

I've written sequels to books and then not sold the original, so I stopped writing sequels! What about you? Do you like to read series where you can't wait for the next book to come out even if it takes a couple of years, or do you like to read stand-alone titles?
Actually, even though this is another story in the fae series, it's a stand alone title. I like to be able to read books out of order myself, so I try to write my stories that way also. :)
Off to work on The Winged Fae!

Great things have been happening in getting ready for my second novel release. I've been setting up a blog tour set to happen during the first part of July all the way up to the release party. I've already got about 20 bloggers on board and I'm very excited to see how this works!
I spent last weekend going over the final "author proof" or final draft of The Last Archangel. I'm excited about the finished product and the fact that it is now off to the printers. It was also nice taking a look at the story again with fresh eyes.
Now that it has been finalized, I'm not able to release an excerpt, the prologue and the first chapter. Click
here to visit the official site and download the excerpt. Enjoy! I'm sure there will be more news as things progress, but for now I'm just excited about all of the things that I learned the first time around that I'm able to do better the next time around.
I lived in Florida across from a jungle-like forest like I've described in Ghostly Liaisons, explored the swamps and as I traversed the vine thick vegetation, listened to the mosquitoes buzzing about, avoided walking into giant spiderwebs and watched for any signs of alligators, rattlesnakes or water moccasins. And made up tales as I ventured through the wilderness.
And finally, I wrote Emily Rundle's story.
Emily Rundle’s curious nature causes her big problems when she moves with her family to Florida. First of all, she’s different. Really different. Then the nightmares begin. The kind she can’t escape. Somehow she has to unravel the mystery of the ghosts who plague her before it’s too late.
Michael Shipley just moved to town, too, and realizes at once Emily is trouble with a big T. If he becomes involved with her, his life will change forever. Premonitions he has that Emily’s life will be in danger forces him to make a stand to protect the girl who’s gifted with extraordinary abilities like him. They instantly bond as the two weirdest kids in school.
I'm the author blog guest for Deadly Vixens today and am running a contest. Please come by and comment for a chance to win!
When kids can’t come to the library, what do you do? In the case of one group of kids in residential psychiatric facilities, the answer is ; “The kids weren’t moveable, so we had to bring the library to them.”
What a neat idea! I would imagine that hardly anyone who doesn't work with them directly thinks about the needs of these kids. Read more about it here.
