Waaaah! I never thought I’d like him as Doctor Who, but I really love him now and I’m going to miss him. It will be interesting to see who they get next. We’ll see five more specials with him in them and then see a new Doctor in 2010. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7698200.stm You’re not leaving immediately – [...]

For some reason, I’ve always wanted to create a Listmania list but never have. But recently I was asked (again) for some recommendations on writing books. Since I don’t use writing books, I don’t feel I’m necessarily the best person to ask, but then again, maybe I am. Because I’ve been asked so often, I [...]

So I’ve finally given up and “hired” someone to write a better bio for me. Come on, admit it, you guys were getting tired of the superhero bio. She sent me a list of questions (which, being the good editor I am, I didn’t look at until AFTER I’d sent her a list of information. [...]

I’m back from NJRW. We got home late last night, but it was a fun weekend and I was glad to have Josh with me this weekend. It makes it easier to travel when I’m not always away from my family. I got to have dinner with some Samhain authors, which I always love because [...]

I’m leaving town again. As it happens, I’m kind of exhausted because the toddler, she’s not sleeping so well and since only Mommy will do, that means neither am I. *yawn* But it’s time for the New Jersey conference, which is always loads of fun and where I always get to touch base with a [...]

Can you believe she’s four today? I know some of you out there remember when she was still .5 (when I was pregnant). She’s so excited it’s her birthday, she can hardly stand it. We went to Walmart to pick up her Cinderella birthday cake to take to daycare, and she told everyone she saw [...]

I think I want Keith Olbermann to be my next boyfriend. It’s a clear sign of getting old that watching him give these special political commentaries, in that deep, intense voice gives me more shivers than any adult film. And any man who can use the term “madam” so mockingly…reoowwwrrr. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/27287363#27287363

Today I went with Brianna on a field trip to a local pumpkin patch. The truth is, we didn’t actually go to the pumpkins themselves. In our area, we have a lot of local produce stands that compete for business, and in the fall, one of the ways they do that is by providing fun [...]

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).
