And now for something completely different. A quote from the incomparable Dorothy Parker.

“If you have any young friends who aspire to become writers, the second greatest favor you can do them is to present them with copies of The Elements of Style. The first greatest, of course, is to shoot them now, while they’re happy.”
― Dorothy Parker

Hello, everyone.  Thought I’d share my interview on Julie Tetel Andresen’s blog today…

Five Questions with Linda Lee Williams

Part Two of the post I shared a few days ago…Thanks, Mindy and Ryan!

For those of you who, like me, have been THINKING about audible books, here’s a quick look at the process via Between the Lines. I’m thinking even harder, now.

An informative post about writing short stories…

Since #MondayMeme is mostly book and reading related, it stands to reason #ThorsDaySmile will be whatever the heck strikes me funny at the time. This week, it’s this picture. It just makes me laugh every time I look at it. Pass it along. There are bound to be parents out there who identify with situations of this sort. And Smile! It’s Thor’s Day!

I’m hoping I’ve caught you procrastinating and willing to provide a little critical feedback today. First and most important, I’m struggling to decide on the title of my current work in progress. I know that I’ve sung the praises of running market research on titles before, but google raised their prices and I can’t quite stomach throwing $100 at deciding on a book title. So I hope you’ll take thirty seconds to follow this link and vote on your favorite title if you’re a reader of urban fantasy.

And if you’re feeling particularly bored, perhaps you’ll also check out my brand new author website and give me your thoughts on it as well. There are a few things I still want to fix, but feel free to suggest changes anyway — I want to make it professional and enticing!

In case you’re curious (or thinking of making a new author website yourself), I opted to host through InMotion and used the paid theme Precious Lite Pro to make building the site easier. My primary goal was to make a quality email-list signup page since I’m thinking of trying facebook ads, but I also want to give true fans somewhere to go for extras and other perks. Which is all a long way of saying — feel free to be harsh in your criticisms! I want it to look nice. What do you think?

Sharing Rosie Amber’s review of Linda’s book. Please pass it on, as well. It’s still a sweet read, even with the holidays behind us.
