Lili Tufel goes to Fantasy Island!

Author Lili Tufel

Friend and author Lili Tufel contacted me with some great news she wants to share. She just signed with Fantasy Island Publishing.

I caught up with Lili while she was house-hunting for just the right mansion with “s” shaped hedges. She said,  “I’ve spent nine months promoting SAND on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, LinkedIn, and GoodReads, but only as an ebook. Now I’m happy to say that SAND will finally be available in bookstores!”

Her book, Sand is a military-style thriller:

Dallas is a Special Forces Lieutenant who is driven by his promise to protect the Colonel’s daughter Abby from an opium drug lord. He is torn between duty and his love for her and when he discovers that the drug lord’s charming—murderous son has befriended Abby, there’s no limit to how far he is willing to go to protect her.

Learn more at her website and her excellent blog. We wish Lili all the best success and happiness in her endeavors with Fantasy Island Publishing. Lili also promised me an interview and I am going to hold her to that.

The Carrots Stole My Plot Bunnies! – by Vickie Johnstone

Author Vickie Johnstone

With today being Saturday, a nice long lay-in was the way to begin the day. Followed by a nice long shower. Take it slow, it’s the weekend. The body goes into super slow-mo and the brain kind of follows. But that wasn’t such a great thing today, seeing as I wisely or unwisely decided to sign up for NanoWrimo this month. It began well. A nice sprint in the first week. Yes, my characters were buzzing in my brain, leaping out on to the page, whispering in my ear, doing funny things in my head. One of them is a dog so now and then he was voofing like crazy. What can he do now? Yep he was chasing a Frisbee all over the page. This is fun, I thought.

Cue week two. Not bad. Not as much gung-ho, here I go as week one, but hey, that’s ok, it’s still fun really. The characters were still living. Sort of. In funny land. Continue reading “The Carrots Stole My Plot Bunnies! – by Vickie Johnstone”

Meet the Author: K.S. Brooks

Author K.S. Brooks

In spite of her youthful appearance, K. S. Brooks has been a writer and award-winning photographer for more than twenty years. Her first novel, Lust for Danger, won her an Honorable Mention in the Jada Press Book of the Year Awards as well as a spot in the “Next Big Thing” tent at the Baltimore Book Festival in Baltimore, Maryland (which is not under any circumstances to be confused with Baltimore, Kentucky). She has also provided feature articles, poetry, and photography for magazines, newspapers, books and other publications both in the U.S. and abroad.

In her writing, she likes to keep things moving, use the right words, and paint the scenes so that readers can share her vision and feel for the story. She says, “I’m told I have excellent flow, and my writing moves very quickly. My style has actually evolved quite a bit, from being pragmatic and impartial to colored by my main character’s attitude.” Continue reading “Meet the Author: K.S. Brooks”
