I'm very excited to announce that Caressed By Ice has won a Romantic Times Reviewers' Choice Award for Best Paranormal Action-Adventure Romance!! Woohoo!!
First up, if you haven't seen it yet (or if you'd like another glimpse of the gorgeousness), follow this link to see the smokin' hot cover for Hostage to Pleasure!
I hope you all had/are having a lovely weekend. It's Monday morning here, and I'm planning to dive back into Angels' Blood today.
To kick the week off with a smile, here's a link to a comic strip that hit my funnybone. Oooh, another one. This site is addictive. Don't say I didn't warn you ;-)

I finished inputting my changes into this draft of Angels' Blood over the weekend, and I'm now fiddling with Mercy's book. I think this one is going to burn up the pages. Just saying... ;)
And, I don't know if I've mentioned this but I'll be at RAW 2008 - it's a weekend (19 - 21 Sep) for readers to get together with writers, and there's a great list of authors coming. There may be some changes to what's up on the website at the moment (hold off on booking rooms yet - some important info coming soon), but registration's open, so check it out.
I'll also be at RWA's San Francisco Conference. Every year, there's a huge open book signing session, to fundraise for literacy - this year's will be on July 30th, 5.30-7.30 p.m.
So, what've you all been up to? Read anything good over the weekend?

Amount of work done in past 48 hours: Does work include bouncing up and down and giggling like maniac? (But a happy maniac).
Number of times looking at printout of New York Times list to make sure I hadn't had a very long and vivid hallucination: 100/per hour
Number of exclamation marks used: So many that I think I've run out. <-- Look, no exclamation mark...wait I found a secret stash!
Number of times I've thought the reading / writing community is made up of a lot of fabulous, wonderful people - uncountable.
You guys are the coolest - thank you to everyone who's celebrated with me! You've made this just so extra special. :-)
Normal journal operations (or as normal as it gets!) will resume Monday. Have a great weekend, everyone

My head is spinning. Why?
Publishers Weekly reviewed Mine to Possess and called it "...paranormal romance at its best..." Squee!!!!
I was still walking on air over that when I found out that Romantic Times gave MtP a 4.5 star Top Pick!!!!
But wait, there's more. Caressed By Ice was picked as one of the Hottest Books of 2007 by Michelle Buonfiglio's Romance B(u)y the Blog at Lifetime TV; and as I was about to write this blog, I was told that CBI's also been nominated for a Romantic Times Reviewer's Choice Award!!
Hence the head spinning (and excessive use of exclamation marks)! I think I need to throw a cyber-party to celebrate. So, pull up a chair, bring your drink of choice and tell me what's made your head spin lately. :-)
