Remember that good news I couldn't talk about?

I can now. The German and British rights to Jana Oliver's Demontrappers series have been sold in what Publishers Marketplace likes to call good deals. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! Book one is scheduled for a summer 2010 release, and it's going to be fabulous. The beta version blew my socks off. Can't wait to read the final.
Cheers and happy dances,

Ward Theater Sneak Peak

I've posted a sneak peak of the next installment of Ward Theater, "Green Eyes", at Beyond the Veil. It'll go live at JeanMarieWard.com on December 1, but until then, if you want to read it, you've got to go BtV.
Enjoy!

Blogging for a friend

Bianca D'Arc was one of the first Samhain writers I met live--and one of the nicest. Her paranormal romances, usually featuring m/f/m menage, have won numerous awards, and in January her first m/f/m zombie romance will be released from Kensington. This is all great professional news for her.
What's not great is what's happening in her personal life. Her mom is very, very ill. As a result, she's not even thinking about promoting her latest Samhain release, Dragon Storm. So the rest of us at Beyond the Veil are trying to help out. BtV's fearless leader, Carolan, has posted the publisher's blurb and a link to an excerpt. If paranormal menage--with dragons--is your thing, you won't be disappointed.
Cheers,
