Nibbles and bits and more bits

Posted by admin on February 28, 2010

Just some odds and ends to share.

Kissing Cowboy – I received a slew of emails yesterday that my publisher’s bookstore was down again so I threw together some links from other booksellers. Thanks for letting me know.

Books on Board / Amazon Kindle / B&N Nook / Diesel eBooks / All Romance eBooks / Mobipocket

Winter’s Daughter – In the past few weeks I’ve also recieved a sudden influx of emails about the second book in The Coven series. Yes, there are more books planned for this series. Yes, I’m hoping number two will be out this year. Now that the madness in my personal life has settled down I anticipate an increase in my writing time. Woot!

What I’m working on – My editor requested that I add a few thousand words to Sins of the Flesh, the fifth title in the Shadow Dweller series. As I was working through it I noticed how much my writing style has changed (not to mention how much paranormal romances have evolved!) so I decided to rewrite it from stem to stern. This book was originally written ten <!!> years ago and my poor vampires don’t even have cell phones. LOL!!! Once I have a release date I’ll post it here.

And I learned something very important on Friday, the movie Hackers is so much better when you’re too sick to care what you’re watching. :)

How romance saved my week!

Posted by admin on February 27, 2010

It’s been a pretty miserable week in the house of Wilder. Trapped in my bed with a stomach flu-esque illness…romance novels saved me from losing my mind. I don’t have a television in my bedroom and we all know, when you’re sick there’s nothing like vegging out in front of the tv. Instead I grabbed my Kindle and indulged in a reading marathon.

A Wanted Man – Linda Lael Miller, Historical

An Unlikely Setup – Margaret Watson, Harlequin SuperRomance

Mackenzie’s Mountain – Linda Howard – my favorite comfort read!

Waking Nightmare – Kylie Brant – Romantic Suspense

I can’t remember the last time I was able to read so many books in five days. Now that I’m on the mend I probably should do some writing but the next Brant title is calling my name. :)

Weight Loss Wednesday – Did you cheat? :)

Posted by jcwilder on February 17, 2010

Of course you did! I saw you do it. Remember, the Wilder Knows These Things. :)

Okay, before you start getting paranoid…

Everyone cheats during weight loss. I know there is probably a few of you out there going, ‘Uh uh, no way, I never cheat.” Really? You didn’t have a bite of your sister’s ice cream? You didn’t snag some mac and cheese from the pan while you were making it for the kids?

I’m here to tell you it’s okay. We’re human and we don’t walk the straight and narrow every minute of every day. I ‘cheated’…but I don’t look at it that way. (and no, I’m not living in the land of denial) I accept that I’m a grown up and I make the food choices I make. If I want a piece of pie, I will have a SMALL piece of pie. If I want some candy, I have a SMALL amount of candy.

Latest Contest Winners!

Posted by jcwilder on February 12, 2010

    

Sorry I vanished yesterday and left everyone in suspense. I had to hit the grocery store yesterday and it was downhill from there. I’m one of those people who will start to do something then I get distracted and next thing I know its six hours later and I’m cleaning out a closet or something. My recommendation for housework is when the urge hits you, take two aspirins and curl up with a good book until the feeling passes. :)

And the winners are….

Fedora, Cathie R, Connie T and Tina C.

Ladies, please email me at wilder @ jcwilder.com with the title you’d like to recieve (of the two above) and the format.

Congrats!!

   Some of my favorite comfort reads are:

   Shades of Twilight &  Mackenzie’s Mountain – Linda Howard

   Queen, Jackson Rule & Chance McCall – Sharon Sala

   Wishes – Jude Deveraux

   Silver Lining – Maggie Osborne
