Dear Reader!

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We had a nice gathering at the Devlin home. My nephew came down from Iowa with his new family. My daughter, my parents and I ate until Mom and I decided it’s definitely time to start that New Year’s diet early! Now that the excessive feasting is over, I’m starting to dread the countdown to Christmas. Don’t get me wrong. I love to give and get gifts, but I HATE the shopping. I’d like to do a lot of it online, but I’m not very inspired when I have to know ahead of time what everyone wants in order to search for it. I think I need to wander around a store or two to get some ideas before I make those purchases with a click of my mouse.

In the meantime, I’ve been busy finishing up book three in THE DARK REALM series, tentatively entitled DARKNESS RISING. I’ve also been putting the finishing touches on my next paranormal for Ellora’s Cave, called SIN’S GIFT. If you liked the My Immortal Knight series, I think you’re going to love this one too! It’s dark urban fantasy with two San Antonio cops as the protagonists. Next month, I start work on my Western for Kensington.

Some good news. I sold a short story which will be featured in Zane’s PURPLE PANTIES anthology, which will be released in May 2008. The story’s a definite departure for me — straight contemporary and a lesbian theme. There is another erotica project in the works with Zane, but I won’t let the cat out of the bag until the contracts are signed!
