Friday! Hooray!!

Posted by Jill Myles in Blog - Daily Life | promo - (9 Comments)

Just when you thought another Friday would never get here...here it is!

(I know I was thinking it would never get here...)

It's bitterly cold today - I went outside this morning and it was 16 degrees. With the wind chill, it felt like 6 degrees. Horrible. I'm going to stay in and drink hot cocoa all weekend, because that's what a shut-in would do, right?

Still trucking along on Book 3. I'm up to 56.5k! Still hoping to have the first draft done by the end of the month. We shall see if that comes to fruition.

Speaking of things that are trucking along! My blog tour! Today's stop is over at Writing the Renaissance. Today's topic? Procrastination and self-discipline.

One last quick note -- I never heard back from my two winners, so I'll do another flash giveaway this weekend. You'll win your choice of book 1 (woo!) or book 2 (woo woo!).

On today’s list

The blog tour continues with Sarah Eve Kelly -- we discuss historical research and how those can possibly fit into a romance (they do!). Remember to leave a comment to be entered in to the Holly Root query critique contest!

It's also my day over at Odd Shots. I go totally juvenile and talk about farts and elevators. High brow, I know! But that's just how I roll.

I'm behind on a few things, but am going to try and catch up over the weekend. Scouts' honor!

Next stop!

More blog tour goodness

Here's the next stop on the blog tour: Kerri O'Connell. Today's topic is mythology and world-building.

BTW - if you've left me a question on one of the other blogs, I haven't had a chance to answer yet! But I will! Just be patient with me. It's a little hectic right now. :) Be sure and comment to enter the Holly Root contest, though!

Blog Tour continues…

Tomorrow…

Posted by Jill Myles in Blog - Publishing Stuff | promo - (1 Comments)

Is the big day (at least, it's exciting for me).

I'm...so tired I could fall over. ;) Seriously. Next time I have a book release, remind me not to have it in December or January. Or BOTH.

Just a quick reminder that you have a few hours left to enter both my Goodreads contest and my blog contest to win a free copy!

I was also over at Dear Author today for the First Sale letter, and Mandi at Smexy Books reviewed Gentlemen Prefer Succubi.

There's a little something cool launching tomorrow, brought to you by a group of the most supportive people ever...so stay tuned. :)

ETA - AAAAH! My counter says 2 hours until my book releases.

No writing tonight. My eyes are crossing. Hopefully tomorrow.
