Yesterday, JC put up formal announcements about the release of the new Jan and Julianna novella, "The Sleeping Curse."  I'm really excited about this story.  It's a lot of fun, with traveling gypsies, witches, curses, and a bit of romance.



When JC first showed me the cover he'd made, my jaw dropped.  It's perfect.  I am so lucky that I have him to make our covers.





The final story in the adventures and romance of Jan and Julianna will be out in August, called "Silent...

 Tales from the World of the Noble Dead



I'll be curious to see what kind of feedback JC gives me on "The Sleeping Curse."  As part of our process, while I'm revising the story (based on his notes), he'll go to work on the cover, and when I'm done revising, I'll hire a...

A few years back, JC built this website just for me because the Vampire Memories books were separate from the Noble Dead books, and we kind of wanted to keep things that way.



Since then, he and I started up the Tales project, and then I launched The Mist-Torn Witches series . . . which is set in the world of the Noble Dead.



A few days ago, he asked, "What you think of us conglomerating into a single website?  This might be easier regarding the Tales project and we'd just post...

Yesterday was my 50th birthday.  Yikes.



JC took me to a lovely place for dinner.  This was Victorian style home years ago, and someone bought it, hired a chef, and set up a restaurant that serves French cuisine. Yummy.



The main entrance is through the back, so JC and I each shot a picture of each other on the stairs.   We had an incredible dinner and a fun evening.

Okay, yesterday I finished the first draft of the next novella in the adventures and romance of Jan and Julianna, tentatively titled "The Sleeping Curse."



JC hasn't read it yet, and he sometimes likes to play with titles.



This is a fun story, and we should have it up in July among the other Tales



Again, if you want to read their story, this is the order:



1) The Keepers

2) The Reluctant Guardian (Note: This is actually Aunt Beija's story, but the plight of Jan and Julianna play a...

Our little Ashes has started doing the cutest thing.  We take the kitties out into our backyard to play in the late afternoons--and we supervise.  Ashes has learned how to run under the Japanese Maple, climb the interior branches, and pop up on top.  It's so funny.  I suspect she views herself as a quite fierce--a little huntress.
