For those interested, the conference is being held this coming weekend atContinue reading “Necronomicon 2017 schedule”

Awesome in October

Sadly, I’ve been neglecting the blog recently. Partly, it’s because I’ve been insanely busy with everything else work-wise and not able to carve out the time from my personal life that I might have otherwise due to some family health issues I’ve been keeping off of social media. Partly, it’s because by the time I’mContinue reading “Awesome in October”

Amazing news for N.K. Jemisin!

I keep wondering where on earth to start with all of the exciting news for N.K. Jemisin, and decided I couldn’t go wrong with the author’s own words. From Twitter, “OhdearGodIthoughtIwasgonnablowagasketholdingthisin. Big news re THE FIFTH SEASON! https://t.co/FslJC4OrpM“. If you followed the link (or have already seen the news all over social media), yup, you’ve readContinue reading “Amazing news for N.K. Jemisin!”

Belated Happy Book Birthdays!

I was out of the office a couple of days last week, one for a fun day at Epcot with a few other #publishingprincesses in town for the Romance Writers of America National Conference, and one for meetings and publishers’ parties at RWA National.

New releases!

So much happened last week that I didn’t get a chance to post all of the awesome news here, though I did at least tweet it out! (For those on Twitter who don’t yet follow me but would like to, I’m @luciennediver.) But, I will remedy that today and hopefully get caught up enough byContinue reading “New releases!”

Transformations and The Little Mermaid

Back on my birthday, I posted a special message on Facebook, because I wanted to start with friends and family, but after talking with my husband and daughter, I’m going to post it here as well, because I have a bit more to say on the matter and if I’m going to be an advocate,Continue reading “Transformations and The Little Mermaid”

New releases and such!

With a million things (no exaggeration!) to do before leaving for vacation in Italy, I’m posting my happy book birthdays for this week and next a little early, but I hope that I can be forgiven for that, especially when I return with wonderful travel experiences and pictures to share with the class! So, withoutContinue reading “New releases and such!”
