Hooray for Facelifts!

No, I haven’t had a rendezvous with a plastic surgeon. My website had a close encounter with a web design guru *lol*
I’ve been wishing I had the resources to pull my website and my blog into closer visual alignment, but alas…I’m unemployed. So when I won a website audit in a contest over the summer [...]
Puzzler Friday – Color Splash
Debbie Mumford | August 7, 2009
I’ve had a hectic week. My computer died and I had to replace my hard drive. Unfortunately, the old one was fried, so there was no data to be retrieved *sigh*

There’s been quite a bit of controversy over RWA’s stance on e-published romance. In response conference-goers had the option to attend a Rogue Digital Conference. My [...]
If You Enjoy Urban Fantasy…

Read Lori Devoti’s AMAZON INK!
Seriously. Great book. It’s got it all: interesting premise, excellent mystery, convoluted subplots, great pacing, AND (my personal favorite) she kept me guessing right to the end! I mean, I suspected, but I didn’t KNOW until she let me in on the secret. Just the way it should have been. Plenty [...]
