Sorry!
But I do have some lovely news.
The old url to this blog now takes you to my website. Yes, it's finally done!
Also, I'm happy to tell you all that my first novel, By Any Other Name will be out in a week, so do keep an eye out for the book on Dreamspinner Press website. :)
I need to go get a cup of tea and finish watching a movie, but I just thought I'd update the blog before I forget. :)
I'll try to update some more soon, tell you a bit about my WIPs etc. Just bear with me here.

It's summertime alright...
I'm melting. Like...almost literally. And not because I saw something cute. It's WAY TOO HOT in here! I'm one of those people who are most content around 23-24C (roughly low seventies in Fahrenheit). Today, and for the last few days, it's been around 27-33C (eighties in F). I can't...just...no. At least I have a fan to keep me cool during the night. (Instead of a fan who would make the nights hotter... now that's a thought...)
I really have been a bad author with this blogging-thing. There are a few positive things though, that I'd like to mention.
I have my July novella's release date. Auld Lang Syne will be out July 20th, so that's SOON. Yay! It's also on Goodreads already and on Dreamspinner's Coming Soon-page.
My nerdy self is absolutely delighted over my new Bazinga!- t shirt (you get cookie points for knowing this reference).
I've been reading more than I've been writing, though a plot bunny swept me away yesterday and made me write about 1k words down before I forgot them. I still have two other stories as WIPs and much more started. Trying to work on those two first.
Oh! There's the Hot July Days-event in the Goodreads M/M Romance-group and it's already in progress! My story, Hawk's Sparrow, will be up eventually, so go join the group and take a look of the wonderful stories already posted! :)
That's about it! Until next time,

Big News!!
So I got an email today from Dreamspinner Press. They're contracting my first novel, By Any Other Name!!
It will be out around August/September and I couldn't be happier! Also, since BAON was written during the 2010 NaNoWriMo, then I'm thinking maybe this year I'll write the sequel?
We shall see. :) Anyway, I'm going to go outside to the warm, light summer night and do another happy dance!

Latest News!
I've been doing some promo-stuff and I've been featured in two lovely blogs and there's more to come too.
Here's the first one, the lovely Sue Brown had me over at her blog, and here's another one, First Timer Friday at Naughty in the Backseat-blog.
Oh and I also got the blurb for my cowboy-novella and I LOVED it... I'll share it with you guys later when I have a cover and a release date.

May 29th is here!
This means three things!
One, it is my 30th birthday today! Yay for me, I actually LOVE getting older and despite being a sarcastic person in general, that wasn't sarcasm.
Secondly, tomorrow is the day when I become a published writer! You can find my short story The Double D's from here or from here if you prefer Smashwords. I'll add buy-links later when I get them.
Thirdly, my other short story, Unwind, will be out on Wednesday, so I shall post more about that later.
That's it for now!
Oh wait, not exactly... I've written a story for the Goodreads M/M-Romance-group's Hot July Days-thing. A bunch of writers are writing stories for readers' prompts. Mine is a werewolf story, yay! It will be posted on the M/M-Romance group where you can read it for free and I'll later add it to my website (once that is done). Also, all those stories are compiled and made a free download anthology-thing eventually, when they're all out.
Shall keep you posted on that one too. :)
Now I'm done, promise!

Promo weekend!
This weekend I'll be joining some other Dreamspinner Press-authors for a chat about this June's Daily Dose, First Time for Everything, at the Literary Nymphs' yahoo group.
My short story, called Unwind, is included in the Daily Dose and will be on sale June 1st.
I'm planning on a few other promo-things, interviews and stuff, so I'll keep you posted about them as well.

It's been a while...
but I'm still here! Promise!
We're getting closer to release dates, I'm also working on stories (like a sequel to the novella coming out in July) and such... Busy. Well, most of the being busy is actually spring and the ton of work around the yard one has to do while living on a tiny little farm. There's loads to do, and time for writing is a luxury.
Anyway, I have someone working on a proper website for me, and I'm hoping it will be done sometime soon. Once it is, there will be teasers and freebies and whatnot posted there.
I mentioned Piece of Tales-blog last time I actually updated mine... I'm a guest-blogger-person there every other Wednesday these days, I try to review or something. I wouldn't call what I do review, but like...something? Anyway, there's another post tomorrow in case you're interested.
While waiting for my thingums to be released, I'm having to look into promoting and all that. Somehow it seems weird, having to do that. I mean writing is work in itself now, adding to that seems...almost too much. I know it sounds silly, but it takes a while to get used to living what you've dreamed of for a long time.
Other than trying to find time for writing, I've actually played PC-games a bit. Some WoW, which is an all time favorite, but also my beloved, pre-ordered The Witcher 2, which was out today. So that's what I've been doing today while it rained and my muses were being annoying bitches. Good game, that one. Very difficult, but still, very good as well.
I've read some, right now I'm reading J.L. Langley's My Fair Captain which has been recommended ti me by a few separate people and it's so good so far I'm happy I finally got into reading it. I almost wish I could pull off writing something like that... Maybe one day, eh?
Anyway, this was a rambling thing, just to tell you I'm still breathing. Oh and next weekend, there's a promo-thing at Literary Nymphs I'm online-attending with a bunch of other Dreamspinner Press-authors, so I shall give you links then. Hoping to have my website up by then but if not, I'll try to be more patient. ;)
In case someone was wondering, haven't sold the stallion yet, no good enough homes have come forward asking about him. Meh. We shall see.
