    Aw, thanks Angie :) It is a cool video, huh? I have some very clever friends…And I’m beyond thrilled with the deal.

    umm…won’t have time to celebrate for too long because I do have a book to turn in, and I hear that freakin’ whip behind me.

    You’ll still have me. Lucky you. :neenerghost:

    What fabulous news! (and dood, I just within the last week sent you a final and a new submission, sheesh)

    Nah… you’ll still have more victims to edit. Hehehe!

    Congrats Lori! Get writing *Grins*

    And I’m psyched. Because not only do I have books to look forward to coming out with the New York deal, I also have books to check out as I had no idea that Lori was Lorelei. I love her writing in the Julie Collins series so will have to check out the–what looks like–sexier side.

    I’m sure a few authors would gladly step forward to fill any slots you have open for your editing skills.

    I, too, shall point to your inbox and give you the quivering lip. Sniff.

    Yay Lori!

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).
