Wednesday, October 12, 2005Healer at RT!! I am thrilled that HEALER recieved 4.5 stars at RT!! WOOHOOO! This will be in the December issue:) Also recieved a great review for Romance Reviews today for Red Hot Secrets which will post on the 20th! Here is a tiny piece of the RT review for HEALER! The ending leaves you longing to learn more about these warriors and the world they try to defend. (dl $5.95) Susan Mobley And, fingers crossed, a senior editor recommended me as a buy yesterday. I have been close before so I am not counting my chickens but its still exciting and if nothing else a confidence booster I needed so very badly! Anyway, Who's On Top, I talked to my EC editor and I am taking it on to print size. So both Office Games stories will be in print! Hope everyone has a great day! Lisa 
Tuesday, October 11, 2005Morning all! TRS chat prize winner!  Morning! Still have no contest winners! Check saturdays Blog!! Meredith was the TRS chat winner!!WOOHOO! She won two downloads! List is there! Well I know an editor was reading me last night. Made for a hard evening. I have a bad way of getting insomnia when stressed and that has been destroying me the past few days. While awake I can't focus yet I get in the bed and can't sleep. Okay so I was looking for new shows to spike my creative side and stumbled on the short lived Tarzan. Lucy Lawless was in Anyway, the Calvin Klein model too..  The critics say the show was wonderful but the networks axed it without a real shot. You know they almost did that to Seinfield? They are quick to cut their losses.. Who's on Top, book two of the Office Games series at EC was going to be a novella. It's now over 40k...I think it may end up print size. The characters just want to resolve certain issues and I can't do it fast. Plus they really really love getting all hot and bothered. My characters in Healer kept doing that to me lol! Well, off to write! Happy Tuesday! Lisa

Well Cathey (Xena fan that she is lol) I watched three Xena's and the first one I was a little tough on lol. Xena took on like 20 guys and it made her seem as if she could do no wrong. BUT by episode three it was growing on me. I thought the characters started taking on personality and the show did to0. It might just be a keeper:) I always think shows get better after the first few episodes. Maybe because we become committed to the characters. Looking forward to seeing Hercules in it too!

Sunday, October 09, 2005Xena Thinking about trying Xena...anyone know about it? Is it good? So, I was thinking about what someone said about Adrian Paul being better than my pictures yesterday. I agree but you know I didn't use to really like him. I started watching Highlander and that changed. I think its his screen presence or maybe the kind of hero he plays in the show. The kind of guy that would rescue you and be the white knight. Gotta love that in man. Who's On Top was going to be 24 to 25k and now its around 40k! I can't believe it. It just wants to keep going!  I am reading Dark Lover. Now I have heard great things. The writer writes excellent. However, the many many points of view is bugging me. I do really like the hero/herione relationship now that it is progressing but it took a while to get to it... I also had issue with a scene where someone is blown up by a bomb in a car. See these vamps can transport themselves in a flash yet this vamp had time to think about his daughter and never seeing her again and he didn't think himself gone. That bothered me. That is an issue with transport stuff and I think Feehan handles it well. There is often attacks within the air around the mist the hero has become. In this book they can just disappear so why even fight? And I am almost halfway through and I don't know if the enemy can disappear.Now this said, I still love this authors writing. I think she is incredibly talented. Not once have I thought of craft when reading her and I find as a writer I tend to think craft when I read people. Not this author. Her work is seamless and well done. As I keep reading I hope that the thing I don't like disappear. Sometimes once you are involved more with the hero and herione the troubles slip away. So, off the read and write! Happy Sunday!
