But the many conversations I’ve hadContinue reading “Our Journey*”

THE COUNTDOWN CLUB is a young adult suspense novel close to my heart, just out from Bella Rosa Books. I hopeContinue reading “New release – THE COUNTDOWN CLUB!”
Blog Hiatus
It’s to be expected, I suppose, that the busier I get, the less time I have to devote to telling you all about things! I’m still active on Twitter, and hope you’ll follow me there (@LucienneDiver).

The Trademark Issue
So, there seems to be an exciting new trend in publishing (not) where people are trademarking or attempting to trademark perfectly common words already in widespread usage throughout the industry in titles, series, imprints, etc. A friend on Twitter recently asked for my thoughts, and since I have yet to figure out how to doContinue reading “The Trademark Issue”

THE NIGHT DAHLIA
Still here! I’ve just been crazy busy between deals and contracts and the London Book Fair and travel to Paris afterward. I hope to have some pics and maybe a write-up of the trip up on the blog some time next week, but I didn’t want to wait to post a belated Happy Book BirthdayContinue reading “THE NIGHT DAHLIA”

As promised at that talk, here’s thatContinue reading “Links”
