Today’s Twit-Bits: May 17th 2010

May 17, 2010 By Maryse Leave a Comment

I spent the weekend reading, and finished the latest installment in the “Love at Stake” series from Kerrelyn Sparks – “The Vampire and the Virgin”. Such an awesome book – LOVED it!! It was an easy, kinda silly read (and boy did the romance happen hard and fast), but I latched onto the characters anyway. So good!

While I work (and am unable to read) I’ve decided to spend my breaks watching the Twitter stream…

  • Shiloh Walker tempts us with a long-ish excerpt (from her book Veil of Shadows). Check it out on her blog.
  • Rachel Vincent informs us that “My Soul to Keep (Soul Screamers, Book 3)” is shipping and may already be in some stores!
  • Christina Dodd announces the title of her upcoming Historical romance novel (April 2011) – “Taken By The Prince”
  • Melissa Marr has blogged a deleted scene from “Radiant Shadows“
  • Katie MacAlister is working on “Baltic 2”
  • Ellen Schreiber will be at a book signing in Cincinatti Ohio (May 18th, 7pm)
  • Delilah Devlin hosting a contest to win a signed copy of “Tempted By A Cowboy“
  • Richelle Mead will be signing at the University Bookstore tomorrow at 7pm (in Seattle)
  • Not author related, but apparently an interview on MTV’s website where Nina Dobrev (of Vampire Diaries TV show) reveals “Method Behind Finale Kiss with Ian Somerhalder“…ummm..does there need to be a method? LOL! Come on – have you seen him? It can’t be that complicated – sheesh! (thanks to Gabrielle Faust for the link)
  • Laurell K Hamilton tweeted: “How long can it take to get one man’s shirt off? That would be Jean-Claude. I’m having a guy moment enough foreplay off with clothes. LOL”

  

More to follow as I find more cool tweets… read more

Gena Showalter at Tampa Barnes & Noble signing

So today’s news should be interesting!! Lots of authors are at the RT Convention (Romantic Times Convention), and I’m fairly certain there will be tons of fun stuff going on there.

By the way…I forgot to tell you all, I met Gena Showalter on Tuesday!! Yup, she had a book signing nearby (lucky me) and while I had no idea if I was going to be able to make it, I was lucky enough to get off work just in time to get there for the last hour. I even picked up her latest book release Into the Dark. I have video, and awesome pics to show you soon. She is as sweet as can be! Blogpost dedicated to Gena coming up… read more

Today’s Twit-Bits – 04-27-10

April 27, 2010 By Maryse 1 Comment

Back from yet another exhausting (but still interesting) business trip…and I’m gearing up to host an exciting and fun author, Gayle Ann Williams. Yup! It’s true! She will be here tomorrow, answering questions and comments, about her latest book (Tsunami Blue). She will also be giving away cool stuff (including books!) and of course, I am still giving away bookmarks/collector card sets 🙂

In the meantime, I’m catching up with author tweets!

  • JR Ward is the guest author and giving away 3 signed copies of “Lover Mine: A Novel of the Black Dagger Brotherhood” at BordersBlog!
  • Laurell K Hamilton is building her playlist for a book she is working on…her choices so far? Chevelle & Disturbed, Sick Puppies (excellent choices!). She says that she is editing two chapters from Bullet that will actually appear in the next Anita Blake novel coming out in 2011.
  • Authors on their way to the Romantic Times Convention (LUCKY!!): Toni Blake (her party dresses are packed), Richelle Mead, Anya Bast (she will try to tweet!), Jackie Kessler (at the airport! and will be giving away ARCS of “Hunger“), Dakota Cassidy, Rachel Vincent (has a four hour layover – ugh hate those!!), Mark Henry, Lauren Dane (wondering if she is at the right gate)
  • Terri Garey just found out “Dead Girls Are Easy (Nicki Styx, Book 1)” is in it’s 3rd printing! Congrats!! That is one I just finished reading a couple of weeks ago.
  • Shiloh Walker tells us that “No Longer Mine” is available, and she is hosting a contest to win a Sony Reader. She is also currently writing (at Applebees! How cool is that!?)…a thousand words down, a thousand to go!
  • Toni Andrews finishing a short story today…
  • Elisabeth Naughton is blogging and celebrating about her release day for “Marked (Eternal Guardians)“
  • Marjorie M. Liu twitpic’d a pic of her ARC “A Wild Light” (the next Hunter Kiss book A Wild Light (Hunter Kiss, Book 3)).
  • Happy release day  for The Darkly Luminous Fight for Persephone Parker to Leanna Renee Hieber!!

Today’s Twit-Bits – 04-20-10

April 20, 2010 By Maryse Leave a Comment

So…I’m almost done the latest book from Leanna Renee Hieber entitled “The Darkly Luminous Fight for Persephone Parker”. It’s good! It’s really good! Of course that’s not surprising considering how much I liked the first one. I’m at the craziest part (at least…if it’s where I think it’s heading). But I was reading so late into the night, falling asleep, and I didn’t want to embark on the adventure, without a clear frame of mind. So I closed the book at the best part, and I’m saving it for tonight. I will be reviewing it shortly. read more

Today’s Twit-Bits – 04-15-10

April 15, 2010 By Maryse Leave a Comment

I’ve returned from a business trip and I’m so happy to be back to my regular schedule! Do you know how hard it is to read during a business trip? You think there will be plenty of reading during downtime, but there is no downtime! Well, unless you count getting back to your room, and being so exhausted that you’re fast asleep by 10pm as “downtime”. Each night, it never failed! I’d barely get through a chapter without my eyes closing. And well… I haven’t mastered reading with my eyes closed yet 😉 Stupid sleeping!! read more

#amazonaffiliate #CommissionsEarned #bookrelease #mafiaromance

When the heir to one of the States’ most powerful crime families comes knocking, Nadia sees it for the gift it is. He thinks he has her fooled, but she’s smarter, more cunning, and always two steps ahead. She’ll beat the gorgeous mobster at his own game, and secure her place in the fold...”

LIVE!!!! Touted as today’s Romeo & Juliet and the inspiration of the Netflix series “Summertime” and OMG it sounds incredible.

“…It begins with a chance meeting at a traffic light, one that draws a young woman’s attention to the stranger on a motorbike. In that one moment, the fates of Babi Gervasi and Step Mancini are altered.

#amazonaffiliate #CommissionsEarned #bookrelease #starcrossedlovers

Babi, poised on the brink of a predictable future, will risk everything to be with Step. Step, running from his past, will find the one thing missing from his life.

Sharing days on the streets of Rome and nights under a blanket of stars, they belong in each other’s arms...”
