I’m feeling a bit under the weather today–caught one of those summer cold/flu bugs that is as annoying as it is miserable. To make the situation even worse, my two-year-old caught the bug, too. Grr…but we’re both feeling better today than we were yesterday.

So, I thought I’d blog briefly today and post a few links.

I found (okay, I was told about) this cool site that posts blurbs of books and book covers–I added several to my TBR list. 🙂

Liz Kreger is blogging about villains over at Magical Musings.

If you want to learn how to make your own hell, hop over to Larissa’s site.

Amber Leigh Williams has help for those researching private investigators.

Hopefully, I’ll be back to feeling perky tomorrow–and I’ll have a longer, writing-type post.

Jeri Smith-Ready, author of the absolutely wonderful WICKED GAME (a great new take on vampires!) is guest-blogging over at The Bradford Bunch today–and she’s going to give away a copy of WICKED GAME to one commenter.  Get thee over for commenting!

And have a lovely Saturday!

I’m blogging over at Fresh Fiction today–talking about just how easy it is to get lost in a book.  Have you gotten lost in any good books lately?

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

(And, psst–happy birthday, Nick!)

Wow–Affaire de Coeur gave HOTTER AFTER MIDNIGHT five stars!  Lani Roberts said the book was, “”A page-turning erotic adventure that you won’t want to put down until the end.”   I will consider this review a most awesome early birthday present!  🙂

(Thank you so much, Lani!)

And, speaking of Affaire de Coeur…there is a fantastic article up on their website about creating a romance book club.  Now I’ve been wanting to create a romance book club for quite a while.  I just can’t get into the “Oprah Book Club” type books.  I like my romance.  Give me historicals, give me funny contemporaries, or give me my dark paranormals–but I need my romance and I have to get my happy ending in order to be a, well, happy woman.

I’m going to try following the guidelines for the romance club–I’ll keep you posted and let you know how things work out.

I’m out blogging today–I’m at the Brava Blog and at The Bradford Bunch.

Come and visit if you have the chance!
