Of my travel schedule for 2008! Can I get a round of cheers? Have you been as exhausted reading my travel schedule as I’ve been actually doing it? Yeah, I thought so. As you read this, I’m on my way to Williamsburg, Virginia for a conference. This year, it’s a combination of two RWA chapters, [...]

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 [...]

Don’t tell anyone, but today I spent my first day in Seattle holed up in my hotel room with room service, watching a good portion of the first seas of Chuck. I will be leaving my room in a few hours, as I’m meeting with a local chapter (which is why I’m here early), but [...]

In case you haven’t noticed, the time before I travel gets a little crazy for me, and I neglect my blog. I also had a really active (totally fabulous) weekend, so wasn’t online much. The past two days have been spent getting things done since I’m leaving town tomorrow at the crack of dawn. I’m [...]

I’ve mentioned before that I’ll be traveling for a good bit of time coming up shortly. I thought I’d share my travel itinerary with you so you can appreciate with me the full scope of my travel and why I think I might need Twitter July 23rd: leave for family reunion in North Dakota. Fly [...]

I didn’t make anyone cry. Well, not that I saw anyway. Today was the day of the conference. We didn’t start until 10am–it’s kind of nice to start later and have time to get ready, without getting up at the crack of dawn! I did an hour of editor appointments followed by an hour of [...]

Who is so smart and witty and interesting to talk to, that you want to run out and grab their backlist. Of course, if you’re already a fan of their books, even better, since you’ve already read and/or own their backlist. I had no idea that I was going to have a chance tonight to [...]

Not today, but I spent half the day (since I have a cold and the cold medicines made me too groggy to edit) shopping for plane tickets. I bought tickets to Cincinnati for the Lori Foster event at the beginning of June, tickets to my family reunion in July, and tickets to San Francisco for [...]

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).
