I have that going ’round in my head. For those who have no clue what I’m talking about, it’s an old jingle for a commercial for the TV game show Wheel of Fortune. Please don’t ask why I have it stuck in my head. I’ll blame it on hallucinations from being ill. I’m feeling some [...]

I think I mentioned before that Brianna is gone for the week with my in-laws. We’re going to pick her up on Tuesday. So Josh and I have all these fun plans that we want to do while she’s gone. Plus, I have a ton of work to get caught up on. But yesterday, I [...]

Last week in a post I mentioned that there were some changes in the works that I couldn’t discuss. It was announced today on our Samhain business loop and also on Dear Author. You can read the full text there, but in short, when Samhain re-opens to submissions next month, we will be refocusing our [...]

My husband sent me this link, I’m ashamed to admit, like two weeks ago. I didn’t look at it because I really wasn’t in the mood for porn at the time, lol. But I think I mentioned in a previous post that I’m cleaning out my inbox, and I had this message flagged (because it [...]

My inbox. Josh had five days off. Somehow, we managed to spend a lot of those doing stuff. I’m not sure what. Just stuff. I didn’t answer a lot of email, though. He’s back at work today, Brianna is in New York with my in-laws until Tuesday and I’m wondering if I’ll ever get caught [...]

All I want for Christmas is my sweet toddler back. I mean, really, who replaced my fun, cheerful, easy-to-get-along-with baby girl with this moody, defiant, screaming, whiny toddler who acts as though I’m abusing her when I tell her “no”? So when you come to my house tomorrow night, could you bring the good one [...]

Okay, it only took me two months to get up the nerve, but I’ve updated my WordPress version to 2.3.1. Please let me know if you find any bugs, as I’m sure there are bound to be a few. I’m also going to try and figure out this tag thing and eliminate the categories. Uh. [...]

Spirit of Christmas part II

13 Comments

Otherwise titled: the promo post. (oops, I hit publish instead of save so some of you saw the unfinished version!) This year I had two Christmas books release. I like to do one or two Christmas novellas each year. Sometimes I’ll ask an author if they’d like to do one, sometimes the author will ask [...]

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).
