This Happened

Just when I think my friends can’t surprise me anymore, this lands in my inbox. I knew Joy wanted to work that photograph into the covers somehow to bring us a bit more inline with the rest of our genre, but I was not expecting anything like this… Yowza. All of season two will have similar refreshes. She won’t show me the season one overhaul yet. I ain’t even mad.

Wind Beneath My Coffee

megsilver

So yesterday it was 80-something°F outside with nonstop sunshine. Today? 50°F with gale-force winds. [insert long-suffering Minnesotan sigh] Aaaanyway, today is the last day of the old writing schedule. Starting tomorrow, I don’t get into this office until 1pm Monday – Friday, and 11:30am Saturday. There will be no slow-downs in work, just a change to when I can do it. Situation normal. Just on its head, right? Have a great week!

What Day Is It, Even?

megsilver

I’m posting a day early because I’m out of town for business Monday and Tuesday. I’ll be starting a new day job, so things are exciting and interesting and busy, to say the least. It’s all good, though; once we’re past this initial patch of unknowns, my schedule will be delightfully regimented, which will make life much easier ’round here. Yay! Otherwise, the Review Blitz is still happening. Don’t be afraid to request copies! The monthly giveaway is also going strong. Have you entered yet? Seven free audiobooks, people. SEVEN. Have a great week, y’all.

PSA: Dialogue Tags

megsilver

Authors and editors, lend me your ears: I read a lot. I love books, and I love stories. Now, before I get into the following rant, let’s get something straight. I am not perfect. I have my strengths and weaknesses as an author. As an editing team, Emma and I never catch every problem. We follow up with a beta team in an attempt to catch issues in mechanics, continuity and whatever else, and we STILL don’t catch every problem. Mistakes and issues embarrass the shit out of me, and I’ve been embarrassed a lot over the years, okay? So I’m not speaking from a position of superiority, I’m speaking… Read More

Regrouping

Happy Monday! I’m regrouping after a crazy-busy weekend. While I was toiling away at the day job, our wonderful beta team has been hard at work, too. Thanks to them, we should have another new release for y’all by the end of this week. For that to happen, I need to get my editing braincells firing on all cylinders… And also to get the babycat out of my freshly watered plants. Holy crap, is she ever in rare form today. Have a great one!

Sessions: First Look

megsilver

We interrupt your regularly scheduled program to bring you news of a new serial… Everyone, meet Sessions, the new mini-serial coming up next. Here’s our first cover: Pretty sure Joy would give me THE LOOK if I did not explain that the cover is still a draft. She’s not in love with how the cover looks as a thumbnail yet; further typography tweaks expected. The serial and episode blurbs aren’t approved yet. I’m working on those, but the gist of this thing is our heroine agrees to become our hero’s sexual captive one night per week. Anyway, here’s a list of preliminary facts about this new series: There are six… Read More
