I am home again, which feels particularly impressive given the progress of Sandy on the east coast. (I was in NYC.) I had a wonderful time at the Novelists Inc. conference, saw lots of friends, made some new friends and learned a tremendous amount. My brain is bursting with new ideas, so I’m in that curious place of being both invigorated and exhausted. (This is what conferences are all about.)
Many thanks to Kate, who graciously gave me a ride back to Toronto in her car when I realized that flying out of Newark yesterday would have been a bad idea.
While I was away, Amazon price-matched KOBO and made DOUBLE TROUBLE free. It reached #1 for Kindle free overall, which is fantastic, and remains at #1 Kindle free contemporary romance. Woo HOO!
I’ve been nominated for Author of the Year at Grave Tells and you can vote for both your favorite author and your favorite book on their site this week, right here.
KISS OF FIRE has been nominated for fantasy novel of the year at Authors After Dark’s Bookie Awards, as well, and you can vote for your favorites in many categories, right here.
Finally – and most importantly – if you and those you love are in the path of Sandy, please be sure that you are all safe.

One response to “Home!”
WOW!! I read sssooo many books! I did’nt think I would like e-books, not the same as holding book, turning pages, etc…. I’ve changed my mind, although I still try to turn the page, because the exposure to many new (new to me) authors, has me in a readers paradise!! Just found the Coxwells. I’ve fallen in love with these new characters, Mary Elisabeth, James, etc.. I can’t wait to read the rest of the series! Btw I love Anne McCaffrey ‘s series “The Dragon Riders of Pern”.
