In a most excellent start to the year, friend and fellow lulu Carolyn has landed herself an agent! This is brilliant news and most deserved, and we all have our fingers crossed that a quick sale follows. Of course, lulu celebrations will be happening 
In other news, congrats go to Jenna Black, whose brilliant book The Devil Inside has been nominated for a Romantic Times reviewers choice award in the urban fantasy section. Kelly Armstrong’s No Humans involved has also been nominated, so congrats to you both!
I also managed to pick up a nomination in the career achievement award in the urban fantasy section, along side Charlaine Harris, Jim Butcher, and Simon R Green. Talk about top shelf competition!
In writing news, I’ve sent back the anthology edits, and have managed to get a little writing done. The muse is fidgety again–we worked on both Mercy and Riley today, and just for good measure, it threw in some ideas for a new series I’m not planning to write for another year or so. I don’t need another series to worry about right now. (Now, if I can just convince the muse of that…)

Hey! Congrats on the nomination! I am now off book-buying probation since the holidays are over–at least for a month until my friends all start shopping for my birthday–so i’ll be sure to grab some of your stuff to read!

That truly is a good way to start the year. I wish Carolyn a quick sale as well, even though I don’t know her, it’s good to show support to writers, especially, when after time I will be in her shoes.
And way to go for you! Score a prize!
As for the muse. It is good, when you have one. Trust me. I have way too many of them and I have to deal with too many women, demanding attention.
