Literary Escapism
Welcome to my alternate reality. Escaping into new worlds, meeting new characters and exploring different societies is the only way we have of leaving the harsh reality of life behind us...if only for a little bit.

Literary Escapism

Literary Escapism I have a friend who is looking for more books like Chloe Neill's Chicagoland novels. Any suggestions? She's has read the Vampire Academy, Morganville and House of Night series already.

…but I just found out that I was blurbed in a published book. One that was published back in April. How did I miss this!? It’s on the second page of the reviews, which in itself is amazing, but then I find it on the back cover as well! Sorry, but I am having an extreme giddy freak...

Literary Escapism OMFG...I just saw this. I was blurbed in a published book? I'm quoted in print in a book. It's on the 2nd page of Chance's Curse the Dawn, but I'm there! Okay, this is my first. I'm excited.

Yeah, I've noticed her website doesn't get updated very often. There's a few authors like that.

The ego is fine. I know I'm not the only one who has gotten blurbed. Darque Reviews shows up everywhere and has even had a blurb on the cover of a book (a Morganville novel if I'm not mistaken). So the ego is fine. The giddy fangirl in me though, she's having a field day.

It actually met quite a few. They were all Michigan based authors, which was kind of cool, but I had never heard of them before. I can't remember their names right now, but give me a chance to track down the books and I'll tell you. ;)

Yesterday, ABCNews posted an interview with Charlaine Harris and she talks about two vampires that generally top a lot of lists.  Since the topic was one that has come up in a lot of forums that I belong to lately, I figured people would want to see the part where she talks about Bill and Eric.JB...
