I've done a couple of wild releases recently, so yeah, I'm trying to flex my BookCrossing muscles again. ;)
And thank you both! The writing is going well. I'm working on a YA now, which is... difficult, but hopefully…

Absolutely international. :) Let me know (either via PM or posting a link to Facebook or Livejournal) if you've got a picture posted of a title - otherwise, I can definitely let it slide for BC'ers. ;)

I haven't been here in ages, and that's my bad. The reason, however, has been that I've been pretty much using any and all time on the whole writing front, and I've had success in the form of quite a few short stories ac…

I've been published twice, short pieces in anthologies. One was a romance with a bit of a paranormal twist, and one was more a memoir/short biopic. Two more are in the holding pattern while I wait for a response from t…

In and of itself, I adored "The Wife's Tale" by Lori Lansens, but when I stumbled on a passage where the main character finds a whole shelf of bookcrossing books at a hotel, I had to stop and grin about it. The characte…

I've been the first to release books in a lot of the smaller towns around Ottawa, and in a few places when my husband and I took the train across Canada on our honeymoon. It's a little thrill, isn't it? :)

Seems to me the really challenging time would be February. Shortest month. But lord knows there's nothing else to do in those dreary days...
