Wrapping Up 2011

December 30, 2011

With all the blog hops, giveaways and online holiday insanity, it feels a bit odd to write a normal post. Heck, forget the rush of this past month, it’s been a crazy year as a whole.

Let’s see, this year saw the release of these three titles:

Spaz’s Review at Wicked Little Pixie

Book Pusher Has’ Review

The Romanceaholic’s Review

Nicole’s Review at Romance Book’s Forum

Jessica’s Review at Novel Reaction

Red Hot Books Review 

Hunting KatAs a mercenary, Kat Darah doesn’t have to pass for a normal human. On the edge of the solar system, she’s just another biped. Most of the time.

Nearing the end of his military tour, Lt. Christopher Rygard debates the idea of hanging up his uniform for good. Looking for answers at the bottom of a glass of scotch, he meets Kat.

One shared night of mutual desire seems harmless. But when their tryst is interrupted by attackers hunting Rygard, Kat must reveal her other form, the predator beneath the human façade.Together they embark on a dangerous mission—a race against time to meet the enemy’s demands, while trying to deny the passion between them. Rygard is faced with a terrible choice in the face of duty: Report the existence of a human turned shape-shifter. Or forget he ever met her.

Queentutt’s Review

Drowning Tides (included in the Love’s Immortal Pantheon Vol. 5 anthology)Lora loved being a mermaid, reveled in the freedom of the sea. But an ancient danger approaches and her friend, Katherine, needs to live up to her potential or countless lives will end.

In an effort to coax Katherine ashore to spend time immersed in the emotions humans generate so easily, Lora steals the breath of life from unwary divers. For every human life, she has three days and three nights to fill her lungs with air and walk among them.

Seeking the perfect bait for Katherine, Lora goes ashore … but finds love instead.

Science Fiction

Remember My Name(Gimme Shelter anthology)Snippet chosen by the editor:

Damn Recon Marines. If they’d stuck to the original route, they never would’ve been cut off from the transport ship in the first place. The tiny alley didn’t present enough escape routes and I’d have my hands full providing the support they needed to make it the rest of the way to the waterfront.

Status: Published as companion to the Shelter in Place RPG

Met many readers at various conventions and played Spot the PJ all over the internetz. Won NaNoWriMo 2011. Had a whole heck of a lot of life challenges ranging from getting laid off to losing my house, dealing with various natural disasters and finding a new place to live. Whew.

I also accepted representation with  Louise Fury of the L. Perkins Agency. *squee!*

I’m planning to work hard in 2012 to make the positives outweight the negatives. It’s my hope you’ll see a bunch of new titles in 2012, including the next books in the Triton Experiment series and the Terra’s Guardians series. Stay tuned and I hope you’re having a happy set of holidays. ;)

    You’ve had a really bumpy ride in 2011, but your go get ‘em attitude should hopefully see you right in 2012. All the best with your forthcoming plans and releases…

    The secret to a bad year is letting it not get to you. Its powering through and you have done, with your writing and when you add a fresh start to a whole new year, you’ll make 2012 all yours.

    A rollercoaster ride for you in 2011, but it sounds like you keep landing on your feet. Congrats on the release of your 3 titles and your representation with Louise Fury. That’s the way to end a year! Hope 2012 works out even better for you. :)

    All of this negative stuff has a purpose and a reason…where one door closes another opens…it all happens for a reason…things I truly, truly believe!

    Congratulations on all your success this past year and to many, many more in 2012!

    Wishing you continued writing success in 2012, and hoping that good Karma catches up to you soon. You’ve come along way baby. :)
