This week, Brianna was “star of the week” at daycare. This is a big deal for her because every day they do a special activity centering on the star of the week. I’m sure you can imagine how much she enjoys being the center of attention. For Thursday, the parents were instructed to write something [...]

First, let me start by saying that this cover drives me nuts. I can’t seem to remember that Mistborn is the series name, not the book name, because the series name is so huge and the title is so teeny weeny. I’m sure this must have been a marketing decision to get the series name [...]

My MIL makes this for holidays, when I’m going to be around. I made it last week for a Thanksgiving brunch I went to, and someone asked for the recipe. I thought I’d share it here as long as I was typing out the recipe! Sweet Potato Fluff (or Souffle, as my MIL calls it) [...]

“Life and death. Energy and peace. If I stopped today, it was still worth it. Even the terrible mistakes that I have made, and would have unmade if I could. The pains that have burned me and scarred my soul. It was worth it for having been allowed to walk where I’ve walked, which was [...]

Today, I went to Walmart for soy milk and bread. I walked out of Walmart with…soy milk and bread. And not one. single. other. item. Come on, now. Tell me that’s not amazing. You know it is. Especially because I had to walk to the back of the store for the milk!

But, man, was I ever glad to hear her son whining yesterday. No seriously. See, Brianna has hit this age where I rarely ever get spoken to in a normal tone of voice. It’s all whine. About everything. Even socks, for pete’s sake! Drives me batty. And the tantrums? Oy. I was starting to think [...]

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).
