Nice Mommy~Evil Editor

I know, I was supposed to announce the contest winners last week. Sorry! Thanks to those who provided gentle reminders. So, without further ado and thanks to the genius of random.org, I have a main prize winner and two smaller winners. For the consolation prizes, which is a box of goodies (sorry, no HQN bag): [...]

Four years ago, I joined a new, not-yet-heard of publishing company called Samhain as its very first editor. I later became executive editor and enjoyed watching as it grew, as readers and authors discovered the company and in turn helped it grow. Over the course of those four years, Samhain has released just over 1000 [...]

*contest is closed, we have a name! Winner will be announced this week!* Have you ever had the urge to do something a little different than what you’re doing now? Or to share your love of something? That’s what Jane Litte of Dear Author, Sarah Wendell from Smart Bitches, Trashy Books, and I are doing. [...]

Sorry I didn’t get to this yesterday. I decided to go ahead and let Random.org choose my winner, because I just couldn’t decide from so many good first lines. I wish I was seeing some of these entries! But since there can be only one… Suzanne Lazear, you can thank our anonymous benefactor for your [...]

Two weeks ago I advertised I was doing Golden Heart critiques for a fee. The response was somewhat overwhelming (and flattering) and I had a number of aspiring authors contract with me for Golden Heart critiques. But I also had someone, who wishes to remain anonymous, who felt the fee for the critique might have [...]

I very nearly forgot to choose the winners, but I’ve done so with the aid of random.org. Winners, please email me angelajameseditor AT gmail.com and give me your full name and mailing address, and I’ll send your prize out via Amazon. Thanks to everyone who entered, and to those of you who shared some thoughts [...]

In honor of Kate, and the extreme love and genuine enthusiasm she had for the authors and books she edited, I’m giving away a copy each of two of Kate’s releases today from one of her authors, HelenKay Dimon. I have no doubt today is indeed a bittersweet day for HelenKay. To enter to win [...]

I’m guesting on the Risky Regencies blog today, where they did a Q&A with me. Head over and leave a comment (ask a question, show some love) because one random commenter will win a prize pack from me.

Seussian Ode to Pralines I like pralines in the dark, I like pralines in a park. I will eat them on a boat, or even while crossing a moat. I can keep them in my purse, their sugary goodness makes me curse. I will savor them with a book, my “oh yes” face will be [...]

Or something equally silly? I’ve promised to choreograph, video and upload a ridiculous victory dance if I get first place in the DABWAHA brackets. I’m in first now but am about to be knocked out with these next rounds. Before 6pm I need you to vote for Hunger Games! After 6pm I need you to [...]
