Best Shapeshifter Book of 2009!

So far the beginning of this year has been pretty cool. I've had several books nominated for awards, and one even won!

Dare to Believe and Steel Beauty were in the Preditors and Editors poll. I didn't place, but I did a lot better than I did last year! Dare to Believe came in 11th for artwork, and Steel Beauty came in at 13th for short story: romance. So I got some stuff above twenty! WOOT!

Very Much Alive and Dare to Believe are up for Best Book 0f 2009 at Whipped Cream Reviews. I'm losing out to Lorelei James (way to go, Lorelei! Hot cowboy lurve!), but I was thrilled just to be nominated. Voting is open until the fourteenth if you'd like to vote for a good book.

Shadow of the Wolf was up for Book of the Month at Dark Diva Reviews , and won Best Cover at Paranormal Monday.

And finally, guess what else is up? Love Romances Cafe's nominated Shadow of the Wolf for Best Shifter Book of 2009! Voting doesn't begin until the fifteenth, and then it's by email. No early votes counted, LRC is pretty strict about that sort of thing. For full voting instructions Liquid Silver Books has a thread: http://liquidsilverbooks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11048

My poor back. It's having a hard time handling all the Snoopy dancing. And if Dusty puffs out his chest any further with his "My wife, the writer" attitude he'll literally be bent over backwards. Heh.

Just got a girlfriend of mine to buy the first three of the Halle Puma series late yesterday. Can't wait to talk to her to see if she had a chance to start reading THE WALLFLOWER.

Enjoy it all!!!!; February 11, 2010 at 5:26 AM
