I got a new toy…wheeee!

Not that kind of toy, sickos! Today in the mail, I got an early birthday present (one I didn’t buy for myself!) an Ebookwise. It was totally unexpected and now I’m bouncing around because I’ve been WANTING an Ebookwise. But there were always other things to spend my money on (like shoes). But now I have one and I don’t want to work, even though I REALLY need to, I want to play with my new Ebookwise and learn all about it and cuddle it and love it and call it George.

Alas, I must resist and be strong and GO WORK. Right now. Just as soon as I figure out this one thing…

  1. Dear Author.Com | Multifunction v. Dedicated Ebook Reader & Samhain Giveaway - August 27, 2006

    [...] Others have chosen to go for with a Smartphone, like a Treo. Still others have chosen to purchase a Dedicated Ebook Reader, like the Ebookwise. What I am curious about is if you have an ebook reader, what did you choose and why. If you want an ebook reader, what your going to buy? I think its time for a poll. [...]

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).
