I was thinking today about the things I miss about pre-parenthood. But first, a disclaimer: I wouldn’t. Ever. Trade my daughter to be able to have these things again. But that doesn’t mean I don’t miss them sometimes. But not as much as I’d miss Brianna. …putting on clean clothes in the morning and having [...]

House hunting sucks!

1 Comment

We’re house hunting. Or to be more specific, we’ve been house hunting since I was 7 months pregnant last August. But, at the time, we were living with Josh’s parents since we’d just moved back to the area and I couldn’t take it any longer – you try living with 4 other adults, 2 children, [...]

Damn you Calvin Klein…

If you’re going to make expensive jeans, can’t you make it so the patches over the back pocket don’t bleed and put brown marks on all the other jeans in the wash. Is that too much to ask?

If you’re gong to make expensive jeans, can’t you make it so the patches over the back pocket don’t bleed and put brown marks on all the other jeans in the wash. Is that too much to ask?

A couple of weeks ago I wrote a blog entry about having a love affair with my new daughter. The overwhelming love that I feel every day as her expressions change, her face lights up, and she invades my heart more than I ever thought possible. I love talking about the love I have for [...]

Brianna’s new chair…

1 Comment

I don’t usually buy Brianna impractical things, I leave that to my MIL, but I saw this in a catalog and couldn’t resist since her whole nursery is done in this pink toile pattern. It’s beautiful and girly and please don’t ask how much the chair cost because it’s completely ridiculous. No…I’m not spoiled… To [...]

Snark-less

7 Comments

In blog hopping I’ve found that some of the most interesting, high traffic sites are those that are “snarky.” Like Smart Bitches Who Love Trashy Novels and Snarkywood(I know it’s snarky cuz it says so in the title). But what does it mean, really? To be snarky? Dictionary.com: any kind of unexplained or threatening event [...]

Ten Things I’ve Done…

Comments Off

Well, in a long line of blogger rip-offs, I’m stealing this idea from Diana who stole it from Cece who swiped it from Steph. Of course, I use their first names as if I know them personally. I don’t. But I did visit their blogs and thought it was only fair to link back At [...]

About Me


Angela James

There is nothing worse than writing a bio. And writing one for your blog sidebar? Blech. Maybe you landed here via Google, followed me from Twitter (does that make you a stalker?) or maybe we met at a conference or you clicked a link from a comment I made at a blog you visited. Hopefully whatever I said didn't make you so mad you came looking for a picture to throw darts at (yep, that's me up above, in my favorite cowboy hat) but instead drove you to find out more about the amazingly witty and intelligent person behind the amazingly witty and intelligent comment.

However you found me, who you found is Angela James, executive editor of Carina Press, Harlequin's new digital-first press. I'm passionate about digital publishing, my mission is to drag people to the digital dark side, one reader (and author) at a time. I'm also Brianna's mommy. At my blog you'll get an odd mix of personal and professional posts about parenting, publishing, books, cooking, sewing and life in general. Come back often, comment frequently and go green—buy ebooks!

Please note that this is my personal blog and my opinions are neither that of Harlequin, nor representative of their opinions.

 

Find Me Here

First, I blog once or twice a week at theCarina Press blog, talking about the job, the authors, the books and other things Carina Press. And, of course, you can always find me on Twitter. Or Facebook, if you prefer (mostly the same content, one feeds the other). I also run the Carina Press Twitter and Facebook accounts. Social media, it's where it's at (well, it's where I'm at, anyway).
