September Spider

This year's September spider has cleverly built her web to accommodate our entrances and exits. Isn't she gorgeous?

The Pantser Laments Some More

Today at the Petit Fours and Hot Tamales, I'm placating the muse I dissed yesterday.

BTW, the PFHT are currently running a free read in installments.
It's called Atlanta Expose, and like their previous free read, it's a hoot. Do stop by!

Tomorrow, if I can find my camera and take a picture: The September Spider. :)

The Pantser's Lament Road Show

I guess two blogs don't really qualify as a road show, but it looked good in the title. Today I'm a guest at Romance Writer's Revenge, a majorly hoppin' blog, with Part One of my Pantser's Lament. Help me corral my muse over here.

Red Beans and Rice and the Ghost Cat

Wooooooooo...

I'm over at the Pink Fuzzies today with my unauthentic recipe for Red Beans and Rice, and Pause the ghost cat came along just to give the post some of that New Orleans graveyard flavor. For more, go here...

What's in a Name?

I'm guest-blogging with the fabulous, prolific, and astonishingly energetic Emily Bryan today about choosing character names. It's one of my favorite occupations! Now, titles I'm not crazy about -- in fact, I don't usually have a title until a book is finished, if then -- but names are a lot of fun. To toss in your two cents worth, go here.

Kindle Author Interview

Found out this morning that I was interviewed last night. Twilight Zone music playing...

Every interviewer's questions are different! David Wisehart's were easy and fun to answer, and I like the look of his site -- clean and uncluttered -- and he has a lot of interesting interviews there. Thank you, David!

Things I Can't Do

Today I'm a guest at the Romance Bandits talking about how much fun it is writing about heroines who do things I can't. (Such as landscaping, fabric design, costume construction...) Fortunately, there are many, many more things I can't do, so I have fodder for plenty of stories. :)

Pop over there to see some examples of the work of Australian artist Dale Rollerson, whose fabric was the inspiration for the dress made by Rose, the heroine of Tastes of Love & Evil.
