It’s been a while since I’ve caught up on all the author action (these last few weeks I’ve been entrenched in my books), but now I’m curious… What’s next? Well… LOTS!!
First –> A few quick updates on my website:
- I updated my G.A. Aiken – Dragon Kin Series reading order guide with two new upcoming stories in the series.
- Another free e-book!! Immortal by V.K. Forrest
- A bargain e-book Vampyre Kisses (The Last Witch Series) by Elizabeth Kolodziej
And now for the author tidbits:
- J.R. Ward announced that “Tohrment’s” book will be the next one in her Black Dagger Brotherhood series. Wooohooo!! More BDB!
- Alexandra Ivy shows us the new “Supernatural” anthology cover (her story for Uriel and Kata will be in there!) and here’s a sneak peak to Uriel’s story!!
- Jacquelyn Frank confirms that book# 6 is done and expected to be released November 2011 (name of book and Jasmine’s hero is going to be a surprise that will be released at the upcoming Romantic Times Convention)
- Alyson Noel announces exciting news!!
Summit Entertainment has optioned the dramatic rights for all 10 books in both The Immortals & The Riley Bloom series!!
- Larissa Ione blogs about her latest cover shoot! Hot stuff (actual models!)
- Richelle Mead announces the title of the 4th book in her Dark Swan series:
I’m very pleased to announce that Eugenie’s fourth novel has a title: Shadow Heir. It’ll be released in January 2012.
- Gena Showalter said on her Facebook page “Paris’s book was a monster to write, but Strider’s was a blast!”
- Jeaniene Frost posts her One Grave at a Time: A Night Huntress Novel cover (expected release date: Aug 30th 2011) – BEST cover of the series, so far (in my opinion). And a bonus treat – she also posted the inside pic of Cat and Bones and it’s gorgeous! She also posted her “playlist” of songs she listened to while writing this book.
- Jill Myles will continue her Succubus Diaries series (i’m anxiously awaiting book# 4 – Zane is one of my all-time fav vampires) however she will be self-publishing it. She says:
There’s still a lot of story I want to cover in that world. I’m committed to continuing to write stories in it, as long as the audience is there. I just won’t be going through a traditional publisher to do so (unless someone comes out of the blue and offers me something!).
…Succubus Diaries #4 will be self-published and is a priority for me, but I don’t have a firm release time-frame.
- Jill Myles also gives us some tidbits into her upcoming novella in the Succubus Diaries:
I’m at 25k on SLAVE TO HER DESIRES (the Succubus Diaries Spinoff Novella) and it’ll be at least another 6k long before I’m done…
…This novella is a little darker than the typical Succubus Diaries. There’s no Remy and Jackie banter, and Olivia (the succubus heroine of SLAVE TO HER DESIRES and the narrator) has had a hard life and been betrayed many times. But I love her, and I love the hero, and I can’t wait to wrap up their story and leave them in a good spot.
- Michelle Rowen FAQ’d “The status of the Demon Princess series“
- Terri Garey’s giving away bookmarks for her upcoming book. Sexy Sammy!! Check her Tweet for details.
- Rob Thurman has been contracted for TWO more books in the Cal Leandros series (will go to book#9), and another in the Trickster series!
I am happily addicted to reading but I need to expend my book energy (especially when one puts me in an emotional frenzy - SO fun!). So, I release my feelings about the stories, by writing them down here. It's my book therapy.

I’m about 3/4 thru The Darkest Secret now( Gena Showalter) Striders book will be great! Can’t wait..
According to Amazon… the next Frank book will be titled “Adam”… (and it says it’s Jasmine’s book), but I’m sure that can change.
Ah… interesting
Thanks Tamara!
