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 [...]

That’s what I’ve been doing a lot lately. Mostly because I don’t want to be featured on Dear Author’s first ever installment of Editors Behaving Badly. Or find myself featured on Karen Scott’s blog. Because I’m kinda scared of Karen**. That would just suck. But okay, I’ve had this mad urge to go off on [...]

(giddy-up is my nod to the Seinfeld reference that Dear Author uses. Don’t worry if you don’t get it,lol) I’ve actually already pre-ordered this book from Amazon, thanks to the great reviews I’ve seen on it on various blogs. This should be interesting. I am participating in a blogging experiment hosted at dearauthor.com. To enter [...]

Today is my husband’s birthday. He’s old. Okay, not really, but he’s older than I am by two whole years. And he has a lot more gray hair than I do. And he’s waaaay past his sexual peak while I’m just hitting mine. Hee. I was married once before, in a different lifetime. I was [...]

Yesterday I started reading Magic Study by Maria Snyder, the sequel to Poison Study. I loved Poison Study and though I didn’t jump right into the next book (I don’t have time to get sucked into reading another book I can’t put down!) I was very eager to read it, to find out what happens [...]

I had a post for yesterday mostly written in my head, but when it came to finding time to put it here on the blog, I found that I just couldn’t do it yesterday. Now, I’d like to tell you pretty lies about how hard I was working and slaving away, and though I did [...]

She’s sharing a lemon icee with Daddy. Think it’s a little tart?

I picked this book up at BEA in May. Josh and I were standing in line for a Harlequin signing of Thriller, when he spotted the girl in front of us reading it. The title had caught his eye (hey, he IS a guy after all) and so I tapped her on the shoulder and [...]

Post pictures! I have a day of editing planned, after a late night up reading Poison Study (review later this weekend) and a quiet house since Brianna is gone again. I need to reserve my energy and braincells for editing, since I’m pushing deadlines (truthfully, I’m always under some sort of deadline so why I [...]

I mentioned this briefly in my review of Feint of Art earlier in the week. I’ve noticed a trend in the books I’ve been reading recently. Not just romance, but fantasy and mystery as well. The multiple choice hero. You know, where the author gives you several options for who the heroine might have a [...]

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).
