Eat This While You Read That: Dorothy Grant
As I was gearing back up into the series, I realized I hadn’t yet featured Dorothy’s books. Since we swap recipes fairly often, I wasn’t sure what I’d get when I asked her for a dish to go along with her latest book, Between Two Graves. She neatly tied the recipe to the theme of…

The Bookshelf, Virtually
This last week or so I haven’t acquired any paper books, although I am thinking longingly of a certain big antique mall where I can lay my hands on some lovely ones. Perhaps later today. In the meantime… I buy books for various reasons. Reading seems obvious, but I also buy books to support fellow…

Vintage Book Cover Design
I recently came across a treasure trove of illustrations and book covers from artists stretching back over the last hundred years. Everything from ads, to book covers, to what really caught my eye: the simple line art illustrations common to magazine and books. The same thing I’m working on for the hunting anthology this month. …

Between Two Graves
I have the honor and delight of creating the covers for this series. So when I tell you Dorothy Grant’s latest in her tactical romance series is out… Between Two Graves I’ve obviously got a bias, but seriously, I think every book of hers has just gotten better, and at this point that’s a pretty…

Eat This While You Read That: CV Walter
This one was a first, in that I got to hand some of the food I’d prepared for the blog post to the author! And get squee‘s in response. Also, this is a delicious treat. Both the food, and the book! When I am making baklava I don’t make the filo dough. There are some…

Eat This While You Read That: Becky Jones
Today’s dish and book come from the inestimable Becky Jones, and really, it’s appropriate that I should be publishing this on Independence Day. As a former political science professor, she’s intimately familiar with the whys and wherefores of this great holiday. You won’t find politics in her Academic Magic series, but as the title should…

Joyful Outlook
I’ve been making joy in my life, recently. I have always tried for this, and there’s been seasons it was a lot harder to do than others. This one? It’s pretty easy, to be honest. The sun is shining, as it is more days than not here in Texas. Sure, it’s hot out there, but…

Eat This While You Read That: Kelly Grayson
I’m back, folks, with more food, more books, and more pretty pictures for you to drool over. The new house has a great kitchen, good natural light for the photos, and best of all… I have the time to help promote my friends and fellow authors. Kelly Grayson is a very good writer, and a…

Cover me! I’m going in…
I’ve done a lot of book covers over the years, and had a lot of fun doing it. I’m not quitting, just celebrating some recent releases. Most recent is Kal Sprigg’s latest. Valor’s Inheritance was a different challenge for me. It’s the latest release in a long-running series, so I needed to fit the series…
