women's fiction with a sassy kick!

They're here! They're here! They're here!

So, if you haven't been thus far tempted to try to win one of my babies, maybe this will tempt you. (Note that I will NEVER be a professional photographer. Apparently I am unable to hold freaking still for even a half of a second.)



Or this:


I think they are very eye-catching! The spines stand out among other books...not that VENUS ENVY should EVER be spine-out on a store shelf, but I'm just saying.

I also stepped into the bookmark-making ring, which I think turned out pretty dang impressive for a Photoshop newbie. I'll even throw one of those in to the winner of the ARC...you know, one of the ever-faithful friends and future readers who signs up for my newsletter and whose name I may draw on October 18th to win one of the above lovely books?

    You were right... the cover looks so much more fabulous as, you know, an actual cover! How exciting!!! I still have no clue what mine's going to look like... maybe I should go ask Paul about that. I know they held my sales meeting recently...
