for life's not a paragraph

Wow, I'm still reeling from this gorgeous review at Jessewave by Feliz. I'm very glad to hear that people are enjoying Bonds of Earth, and I appreciate everyone who takes the time to review it.


And in other news, my comp copies arrived yesterday, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the look of the book. Dreamspinner has done a fantastic job, and I love the photograph by Jennifer Dowell even more than before.

Pursuant to my earlier post about the book chat, looks like we're experiencing some technical difficulties. I'll update this post when I know more, or you can check my Twitter. Thanks, and sorry for the confusion! :)

ETA: And we're live! Please join me over here for the chat! :)

Today you can comment to win a free copy of Bonds of Earth at Jessewave! Just head on over to this post for more details.


And there are a couple of lovely reviews for Bonds of Earth up at Goodreads!

Thanks so much to them for reading and reviewing! :)

The day is finally here! My first novel, Bonds of Earth, is now available for purchase in both ebook and paperback format. I'm still amazed it's really happening. Thanks again so much to everyone who helped make this happen - I'm incredibly grateful to you all.


In support of the release, Kate Davies has been good enough to feature me in a Meet the Author Monday blog post. Please head on over and check out some of the other great authors featured there, including of course the talented Kate herself! Thank you again for your kindness, Kate.

In the last week I've received the galley proof and the basic cover layout for Bonds of Earth. The cover features a gorgeous photo taken by the talented Jennifer Dowell, who took the cover I had in my head and helped turn it into reality. Thanks so much to her and Dreamspinner for collaborating with me on it - it's going to be fantastic to see it in print. Cross your fingers for an early 2012 release! As soon as I get the official date, I'll be sure to put it up here.

Bonds of Earth, a historical homoerotic romance, is due to be published by Dreamspinner Press in 2012.
