ELLE BOON links--Skip around the TROLLS

Image
The lengths hateful people will go to never ceases to amaze me. Why? Well, I still assume most people are good, but the assholes are loud and will stop at nothing to make something of their sad little lives. Right now, Elle Boon--amazing author and one of the sweetest people I've ever met--has had links to her books reported as harmful. Here's the post that just hit my page and I'm stunned. Elle Boon fans!A nasty BULLY troll has reported Elle's Amazon page and all the links to her books there to Facebook and... Posted by Margie Mendel Hager on Saturday, April 25, 2015 Since I obviously can't share her links on FB, I figured I'd find a way around that. So here's the link to some of her books: Selena's Men [Ravens of War] Two for Tamara [Ravens of War 2]  ELLE BOON-AUTHOR PAGE  Please consider grabbing a book, sharing on twitter or pinterest, and making sure this attack backfires! Thank you for being awesome! <3

Blame Texas--I'm coming back, baby!

So, I am completely nuts, but that's a given. Heard about an event in Austin and decided that, even though I have tons of events planned for the year, I had to go! Here's the info for anyone interested in checking it out! :D AUSTIN AUTHOR AFFAIR The second I mentioned going, several people expressed interest. So I'd like to make you an offer. FIRST person to register for TWO nights at the hotel and let me know will get TWO VIP tickets and one of the nights they paid for refunded by me! You'll also get some cool stuff that I'll have for the first time at this event. AND you get to hang out with me and some other authors for a little gathering in my room! I know May isn't that far away, but I love travelling! And I HEART Texas! Can't wait to see you there!

A real Fan-Stay Classy

Image
On the high from an amazing win last night, I woke up this morning with two things in mind. Check out the highlights and any news, and then get some writing done. Instead, I came across one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever seen in regards to a hockey fanbase. And I’ve seen some horrific stuff. Here’s the experience two Sens fans had at the Bell Center: Those men weren’t real fans. They’re lowlifes using the game as an excuse to bully people. Upsetting enough right there. But the reactions of those around them? Utterly shameful. No matter who you’re cheering for, seeing behavior like this should end in one of two ways. One, the crowd who considers themselves fans should show their pride in their team by behaving in a way that honors the sweater on their backs. Two, if the crowd is being stupid, then I would hope at least one person was intelligent enough to contact security. This didn’t happen. Instead, these two girls left the arena with ...

Advice for Authors-Don't.

Let's start with the first don't. Don't be an asshole. Unless that's really, truly who you are. I'm all about honesty, so feel free to let your jerk flag fly.  Maybe, just maybe, your books will be awesome enough for me to read them anyway. ;) Memes. Oh yes, the beloved meme.  Stop sharing those. Authors shouldn't share memes. They're lame and sometimes they have bad grammar.  What else are you supposed to share? Hmm...let me think. Not your opinion. You shall be Switzerland. Always. You shall have no opinions beyond what's in your books. But what's in the books, stays in the books. Don't pimp, don't constantly share snippets, don't let anyone see that review hurt you. Yes, they suggested you should never have been born, but buck up buttercup! You need to have a shell like a fucking tank! While I'm on the fucking tank thought, don't fucking swear. Readers don't like that shit. Deciding what to shar...

RELEASE PARTY for GOAL LINE scheduled--And why the hell am I going BACK to Vegas?

Image
That's right, the NHL Awards will be in Vegas and are time perfectly for me to go to them, then the event. I'm working some magic to get tickets. I'll let you all know how that turns out, but just being close to the red carpet to watch the best of the best come in will be worth it. As you know, I'm not just kinda a hockey fan! lol! Then there's this man, who will be at the event, who I'm gonna get to read a snippet from one of the Cobra books. Just take a moment and admire. I've done so for years! So now for the event itself. The timing ended up perfect to do my first ever live, in person release party! And I couldn't think of a more perfect book to do it with! Dominik Mason has waited so long for his HEA and that's something to celebrate! The release party will be JUNE 27th where the book will be release EXCLUSIVELY in print. The first TEN readers who sign up to the event and confirm with me get a free signed copy and othe...
