All Soul's Day

Well, here it is, the day after Halloween. It's All Soul's Day, folks. This is important, especially to me, because it's the day that my first story with Amber Quill Press starts on. Yes, Tales from the Graveyard Shift: Ghouls starts on All Soul's Day and goes from there with appropriately ghoulish delights. (LOL).

It's also November 1, and that means it's NANOWRIMO time. Have you ever done this? The idea is that you write every single day during the month of November, and if you write at least 16,667 words a say, by the end of November you'll have a 50K word novel. Works in theory, but I've never managed to actually make that goal. Life usually interferes in more ways than one.

I'm going to give it another shot this year, though, and we'll see how far I get.

Before I do that, however, I'm going to go see what's left in the candy bowl from all the little ghosties and goblins who came knocking at my door last night and pick out my favorite candies for consumption when the Muse deserts me.

Enjoy your fall, don't overindulge in those sweet treats, read a good ghost story, and don't forget to turn back your clocks tonight.

Until next time...Thanks for playing along!

WOW! 5 Blue Ribbons from RomanceJunkies!!

WOW! What a great way to start the week. RomanceJunkies reviewer, Cheryl McInnis gave Tales from the Graveyard Shift: Ghouls a 5 Blue Ribbon Review!!!

Here's a 'blurb' from the review and a link to the whole thing...

TALES FROM THE GRAVEYARD SHIFT: GHOULS is a fantastic paranormal romance from a fresh and talented voice. Kacey Smith has created a story that is sexy, funny and highly entertaining. I absolutely loved this book, and encourage anyone looking for a smart and sassy heroine to look no further than Crystal Lafarge. I hope that we will get to read much more about Crystal and her friends in the future. I know that I will be first in line to read the next story!

Now you see why I'm, bouncing around the room! ;)

I'm THRILLED with this review!! http://romancejunkiesreviews.com/artman/publish/paranormal/Tales_from_the_Graveyard_Shift_Ghouls.shtml

First Review!!

I know, I know, the book doesn't even come out until June 15, but I HAVE MY FIRST REVIEW!!

Bitten By Books says:

This book is Hot with a capital H, and if you are put off by threesomes, then this is not the story for you. However, hot sex aside, this story is very well written and I can’t wait to see what Kacey Smith comes up with next for these three. This book is scheduled for release on June 15, 2008.

Here's the link so you can read the whole thing: http://bittenbybooks.com/?p=220

The book will be available at Amber Quill Press - www.amberquill.com on June 15!!

This summary is not available. Please click here to view the post.

It's almost here...

I received the galley for my manuscript which means only one thing...PUBLICATION DATE IS DRAWING NEAR!!

Yup, I had one more opportunity to take a look at it before it goes to print - I'm so excited about this story and hope everyone who reads it loves it - okay, so I know that's not totaly realistic, but still...

Anyway, I'll be over here - biting my nails and waiting for June 15...

Thank you for playing along!

WHEEEE.....

Today's my birthday! Yup, another year older and I revel in each and every one. I'm not one of those women who gets upset when she realizes she's getting older, I LOVE having birthdays.

To celebrate this 'special' day, I've posted my very first blog as an Amber Quill Author. You can read it here: http://aqpauthors.blogspot.com/

Let me know if you enjoy it (and the excerpt from my first AQP release).

Thank you for playing along with me on MY BIRTHDAY!! ;)

Time flies...

No, seriously. It seems like it was just last week that I got word that I was one of the winners of the Amber Heat contest - then it had to have been just a few days ago that I got my edits (thrilled to say ONE round of edits, thank you very much!) - and now it's just over a month to my first release!

WOW!

I've ordered some promo stuff and will start sending that out soon - I'm also trying to figure out what other promo materials I can use to promote my "brand." AND...I really, really want to finish this next story. I've been kind of stuck on it, but I think I've figured out exactly what needs to happen, so I'm moving on.

Time flies and I'm loving every minute of it!

Thank you for playing along...
