Snuggle up with my Sony Reader and my copy of Bone Crossed by Patricia Briggs. Please hold all my calls as I will be unavailable until I finish. Also, as a random aside, cocktail parties? Freak me out. I’m always afraid I’ll end up standing in the corner with no one to talk to for [...]

I bought this skillet last week, because the price had dropped to $16.99. I’ve been wanting a cast iron skillet, this one gets great reviews and $17 seemed like a great price (and it is). But today, I see that the price has dropped to $15. I sobbed. Amazon has done away with their price [...]

I had to clean out my spam email today (over 3000 of them) and as I scanned the titles to make sure nothing legit got caught in there, I was amused by some of the subject lines. So courtesy of my spam email I give you: 5 things you’d like to hear/see (just not in [...]

This isn’t a movie review, but have you ever seen the movie Sliding Doors? The concept of the movie is one that I think is often universally pondered, and is quite fascinating. Have you ever wondered what would happen if you’d turned right instead of left? If you’d stayed in your hometown instead of gone [...]

Yesterday my friend Marly posted an interview opportunity so I decided to take it. Hey, blog content is good! Here are the questions Marly asked me and my answers. 1. If you had to paint your house all one color, inside and out, what color would you choose? Funny, but most of the inside of [...]

Every morning for as long as Brianna’s been going to daycare, and any other time I’m in the car, I’ve tuned my radio station to 95.3. Why? Because they did the Eighties at Eight every morning. Hello! A whole hour of eighties music? Yes, I have turned into my parents, listening to the songs of [...]

This is the first weekend in awhile that we haven’t had some sort of plan to get things done, either errands or around the house. Don’t tell my husband, because he’ll find something I do have dinner tonight with some friends but other than that, I’m feeling especially lazy and unmotivated. Which is actually me [...]

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).
