Mysteria novella done done done!

Yea!! I finished my novella (tentatively titled Candy Cox and the Big Bad [Were]wolf) at about 4:00 am this morning! Yea! I'll set it aside now and do a rewrite next week some time, and then send it off to my editor before I leave for the RWA National Conference in Reno on the 27th. So now all I have to do is finished the line edits on Brighid's Quest (my December release for Luna) and I am totally caught up! Actually, I'm ahead...which is odd...so I"ll probably start my next Goddess Summoning Book early (it's a retelling of Aida and I'm researching goddesses right now for it). But, what I'm really excited about is that I CAN CATCH UP ON MY READING! (And maybe loll by the pool and drink too much...) So I bought Bitten by Kelly Armstrong, as I already said in the werewolf blog, and I'm looking forward to that. And I have Kushiel's Dart by Jacqueline Carey on the recommendation of my werewolf writing friend, Shaunee (see previous post for an excerpt from her fab manuscript).

Along with those two books I have Liz Maverick's Crimson City added to my to be read pile. I love Liz's funny blog - you guys may want to check it out at http://lizmaverick.blogspot.com. And my daughter just bought me a copy of Julie Kenner's hilarious looking new book, Carpe Demon. Here's the link to an excerpt: Excerpt:http://www.juliekenner.com/CarpeDemon.htm.

I'd love it if you guys would post a review here for any (or all) of the above books! Tell me what you think! I love insightful, intelligent reviews. Naturally, I believe all of my blog readers (and fans!) are insightful, intelligent readers!

Bitten is wonderful. Hmmm. If I said that I loved your books and that you would totally enjoy Bitten would that make it better? Lol. It was well written, and not like any other book I had read. I have not read anyother werewolf books so take that for what it's worth, but I found it extremely enjoyable.

Kushiel's Dart. OMG. I had an idea like that and based on the blurb I think we got our ideas from the same place, but after I read it I decided that never in a million years could I ever measure up to what Jaquline Carey had accomplished. That good. So are the next two. She didn't miss a beat with all of them. Complete suspension of disbelief.

Have a blast at convention and I hope you get much reading and drinking time in. :P

I know this is a super old post ( I've been reading back from the beginning) but I just had to say that bitten is one of the only books I've read as many times as the house of night series (along with vampire academy by richelle mead)
