… P!NK! Who wouldn’t want a name with a punctuation mark in it, for starters? I mean, isn’t that every writer’s dream?! P!nk’s someone who I really admire. She always seems to do her own thing without bowing to peer or media pressure which is no mean feat these days; she’s ballsy, bolshie and smart but never takes herself too…
Hello. It’s me again, I’m afraid. Budge up a bit, chaps, and… IS that an acorn? Ow. Really Squizz, have some decorum, I thought I’d got another boil on my bum for a minute. Now. Where was I? Ah yes. The reason that the gorgeous Squizzey has allowed me access to this page (apart from the fact that I have in my possession one or two
Emma Newman is at The Nut Press today, talking about her very aptly titled collection of short stories, From Dark Places, which is out now. It’s an excellent collection of stories and I loved that they deal in the darker aspects of the human condition.
Last month, author India Drummond was at The Nut Press talking about her debut novel, Ordinary Angels. This month, to celebrate the launch of her latest urban fantasy novel, Blood Faerie, India will give away five Kindle copies of her book on its release day, June 1, 2011.
Blood Faerie is the first in India Drummond’s new series, Caledonia Fae.
When I began writing Love & Freedom I decided that American Honor Sontag had come to Brighton, England, searching for her English mother who had left when Honor was a baby.
I didn’t immediately realise that it would represent a new start – like her, I believed she was just taking time out, a four-month odyssey that would allow her a break from a bad situation in her Connecticut home town of Hamilton Drives. Although, I suppose, having taken such a radical step as to take off without even telling her family where she was going, it was logical that she was ripe for change.
I’d like to welcome Joely Black to The Nut Press today. She’s here as part of a a blog tour to promote her book, Amnar: The Inheritor.
Welcome to The Nut Press, India, and congratulations on the publication of your urban fantasy/paranormal romance novel, Ordinary Angels, which is out today from Lyrical Press.
Thank you, Kathryn, and all your furry friends and familiars, for inviting me to be a guest blogger on The Nut Press. I’m really delighted to be here today, and to have the chance to chat about my new novel The Golden Chain.
Welcome to The Nut Press, Rachel! Thanks very much for stopping by on your blog tour for Storm’s Heart, which the squirrels and I really enjoyed. It’s a fab modern romance with lots of heat and passion, appealing characters and a lush setting.
All I’ve been thinking about for the past couple of weeks is the rewrites on my work novel, Love & Freedom, which comes out on 1 June 2011. Rewrites, rewrites, rewrites, REWRITES.
Rewrites or editing or polishing or revisions – they come under several titles but they’re an inevitable part of a writer’s life. As soon as your work comes under the scrutiny of a fresh pair of eyes, every scamped piece of research, saggy bit, hole in the plot or break in the continuity might as well be highlighted in neon pink. To the fresh pair of eyes, that is, not to you – or you’d put it right before you sent it in.
