I have committed Pinterest

Posted by Jill Myles in Blog - Misc | Blog - Writing - (0 Comments)

So I created a Pinboard to start collecting images for inspiration. I'm not much of a storyboarder or a pre-writer, but I'm an image hoarder to the extreme. I have folders and folders of pictures for character inspiration on my computer. I decided to create a Pinboard for the same sort of thing - visual concepts that I love and inspire me for writing.

I intended for it to be private, initially (who wants to see my concepts other than me?) but I seem to be acquiring followers, so I thought I'd put it out there for anyone that wants to follow. It's here, and most of the concepts are for unwritten books, or books I'm currently writing. And lots of fantasy art, because someday I'm going to write another fantasy novel. :)

Wicked Games Newsletter Coupon

Posted by Jill Myles in Blog - Misc - (3 Comments)

Hey all! So a few people brought to my attention that the coupon for the free download of Wicked Games in my newsletter expired. So weird! I have no idea why it did that.

Anyhoo, if you got the newsletter but were not able to download the book, please drop me an email and I'll send you the new coupon. It's not my intent to cheese you out of a free read.

In addition, if you are on the fence about signing up for my newsletter, I just want to remind that I will only send it out when I have a new release. So it's not monthly, not constant nattering about my favorite recipe - just updates of my releases as a quick FYI! My intent is never to spam. :)

Mini update on Wicked Games for Nook/Kindle

Posted by Jill Myles in Blog - Misc - (2 Comments)

An intrepid, sharp-eyed reader pointed out a few continuity flaws in WICKED GAMES to me, as well as a formatting error toward the end of the book that made the text a little hard to read.

I'm so embarrassed! I do the coding myself, so this has taught me a very good lesson - look at the END of the book as well as the first 70 or so. :)

At any rate, if you bought WICKED GAMES and it has the formatting error in the back (you know what I mean) and want a clean file, I'm happy to buy you a new one - just email me. If you're looking to buy WICKED GAMES in the next 24 hours, I'd advise you to wait until the new one is uploaded!

:)

Quickie update

Posted by Jill Myles in Blog - Midnight Liaisons | Blog - Misc | Blog - Succubus Diaries - (10 Comments)

I'm hard at work on some tricksy edits for the next book I have coming out. For those of you that read MY FAIR SUCCUBI, the sneak peek back there is the first chapter. The name of the series is Midnight Liaisons, but there's not a book title juuuust yet. We're still going back and forth on that one. Anyhoo, I'm working a subplot (or three) into the book and have been steadily plowing through edits. I started the weekend at page 23 or so and hoped to finish my page edits before the weekend was over.

Erm. I think I have overestimated my capabilities - the new subplots involve a LOT of rewriting (when I do things, I don't do them halfway...). So I'm at page 75. Yeah. Not even close. Still, it's really shaping up into something that makes me happy, so I consider this a win, even if it's a slow win.

I'm hearing reports of a lot of people picking up MY FAIR SUCCUBI. Some places seem to be putting it out late but I'm hoping it's out there everywhere now! (If you see it at Wal-mart or Target, let me know? I will love you eternally). I've also had a few people ask me about ebooks in Canada. I actually had no idea it wasn't available in ebook in Canada. NO clue as to why not. So I'm asking about that, but please be patient with me as I check with my publisher. It might be a few weeks before we get an answer.

Also? I have been playing Peggle like mad for two reasons: One - it sings Ode To Joy when you win a round. Two - the unicorn cries when you leave. CRIES WHEN YOU LEAVE. That makes my soul happy, for some reason.
