…and I’m already late posting our weekly update. “Behind” is today’s word, boys and girls.
Novel News
Anyways, no new news on the release of The Courier. Cross your fingers for next week.
Am spending the rest of this week catching up on 4 short stories I’ve written for Friday Flash and Grand Scares, volume 2. I’ll have a couple out tomorrow and the other two by the end of the week, so stay tuned for some FREE fun fiction to read.
No Bloodlegger news this week, but I am attempting to bug R.J. about our progress as I’m writing this. Only we’re discussing his team, the Packer’s loss instead.
Networking News
I’m busily working on setting up the Bloody Heart’s Valentine’s Day Blog Hop, hosted by my publisher Vamplit Publishing. We have a facebook and Google+ page and everything. Yeah, that was meant to be sarcastic. What’s exciting is we’ll be working withe Dark Media City on this hop along with many other indie publishers, filmmakers, artists, etc. so there will be an amazing selection of horror to choose from on Valentine’s Day.
The biggest news in networking is I’m partnering with my dear friend Rebekah Welch, The Colorado Connector on a new project. Rebekah and I have worked together in the past, so getting this up and running should be a breeze. We are starting a division of her networking group for creative geniuses across the Denver metro area.
Nifty News
I heard somewhere that beagles are the most used dog in labs due to their incredible sniffers. Glad to see these guys will have a future filled with love and mischief, like our little Mabel who spent the first 7 years of her life in a cage barefoot and pregnant.
What better place to begin that looking to the future. Now that half the year is essentially over, I’ve decided to focus on my goals for the remainder of 2010. I did a crappy job of following through on ‘em the first half of this year and don’t want a repeat for the second half. So I’m sharing with you the start of the goals I’ve set.
I don’t really have anything to whine about today. I’m over my latest bout of anemia as of yesterday and actually had the energy to get out of bed at 3:50 A.M. this morning. Still had to head to the Keurig brewer first thing and watched the strongest brew stream into the cup. Ahhh…the aroma of morning coffee.
. It was pretty hot yesterday though, and I HATE the heat–there’s a tiny whine. Can’t wait until we move up to the mountains full time. House in the mountains looking out on Longs Peak, where you see snow for most of the year, is the definition of heaven.
Off to add this week’s forum topic to Vamplit Writer’s. This week’s question is about the vampires we’d choose to be in literature, movies or television. The question came to me while watching Ultraviolet for the 20th time this weekend. Another movie I loved that no one else seemed to enjoy. So it’s, no contest. I’d be Violet.
