People across the blogosphere are saying Happy Halloween. I, on the other hand, am saying wtf was I thinking? The house is as clean as it’s ever going to be with a toddler living here. I have to fill the balloons with helium and I didn’t mop the kitchen floor but it’s too late for [...]

Jaci does a to-do list on Mondays on her blog, and normally I don’t do one, because I know I have a lot to do and it just stresses me out to actually write it down somewhere. But today I feel a compulsion to write it down because there’s so much on my to-do list [...]

Today, Josh and I had a quite deep and meaningful debate on the way to lunch. Being intelligent people, it was a lively conversation and covered both the pros and cons of the topic.

Remember I said that Brianna needed to dress up for soccer this morning? I took a few pictures. Now, let me just say that for some reason we got her costume on and she went into full pout mode. AND her new way of pouting involves laying face down on the floor behind the couch [...]

Several months ago, one of the moms I know from Brianna’s birth month board (yes, we all had babies in the same month–they’re two now–we’ve been “together” since preganancy. Longer than some marriages last. But I digress). Anyway, Leslie posted about this new blog feed that she’d been using, Snarfer. At the time I was [...]

You know what I did today? I sent emails. I’m at around 75 emails and counting (that’s not even counting the emails I sent to more than one person at a time). Oh yes, my life is glamourous, oh so glamourous. And in case you’re wondering, yes, all but about 5 were work related in [...]

Umm…pretty easy as I’ve discovered. Someone forwarded me a weekly “marketing report” for this week, which featured a summary of the NJRW Editor’s panel. First, I’m happy to say that nowhere in the report did it mention that I have the inability to spell Samhain, so good for me But as I was reading through, [...]

Last night I took some video of Brianna opening a few birthday gifts we got in the mail this week. I’m sharing it because the “oooohing” is so darn cute. It’s one of my favorite things that she does right now. Oooohhhh…

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).
