Howdy!

Yep.  It’s the first day of my vacation.  Or, rather stay-cation.  Last month I went the annual Romance Writers Of America’s national conference.  It was six days of pure running around like a crazy person, meeting with my many writer friends, and a ton of workshops.

So, getting a chance to stay home and just be a writer for ten days is pure heaven.  Of course with eight dogs at home, there’s no real peace there, LOL.  So, I packed up what I could of my office and hit the road. Right now I’m at a McDonald’s waiting for the mall to open.

And boy do I have a lot of writing/revising/editing to catch up on.

Even better is the fact that I pick up Gamer Girl (my new title for my youngest daughter) at the airport tomorrow.  She’s on semester break for two weeks and she’s all mine.  Uh, except for her summons for jury duty.  Okay, she’s mine and the county court’s.

Biggest news is that Nurse Girl (oldest daughter who used to be nursing student girl) is now graduated, and fully licensed as an RN.  We’re so proud of her.  Four long years of school, a junky car and gall bladder surgery at the end of school is now in the past and she has a bright new future ahead.

Add to that husband (who is a nurse) has been working a lot of overtime, I’ll finally get some time to be with him on his days off.

So, family is settled and now on to writing.  My alter ego Leigh Curtis has been busy writing like a fiend on two western sagas–I’ll Remember You is the next book in her Whispering Pines series )second book after Cole’s Redemption).  And, Miss Marie from Ride A Cowboy is finally getting her due in The Lady and The Gambler, first book in the Ride A Cowboy series.  And, finally, Leigh’s  also working on a saucy little menage western called Theirs To Protect.

If that weren’t enough, I’m alternating Leigh’s work with my regular Regency and Regency Paranormal books.  To Catch A Lady, book one in The Hunt Club series is in revisions, Then there’s A Governess for Annabelle, a sweet Regency ghost story is still in the works.

After those books are completed I’ll be working on my alternate universe series, Cry Wolf, book one of the Werin Chronicles about a race of people descended from wolves.  Finally there’s Grave Danger, my YA post apocalyptic zombie killing love story (also Book one in the Blue Star Baby trilogy) which is in revisions.

I’m so pumped about getting to work.  I’m hoping to have 2 books ready to publish early in September so I better get to work!

Happy Reading!

Hi all!

It’s been while since my last post.  Unless you count Facebook, lol.  Like everyone else, I’ve been super busy–still working full time, kids in college coming and going, dogs and birds to take care of, and of course–the ever present specter of housework.  (shudders!)

Anyway, here I am, back at it.  Writing is ongoing, lol.  I’ve got three books going through revisions right now and two new ones I’m working on.  Plus, I’m also re-editing one of my backlist books.  THE MAD EARL will soon be coming out on Kindle and Nook as TO RESCUE AN EARL, and it’ll be under my name Pamela Labud.  Check out the cover art!

Enjoy the day!To Rescue an Earl

Another year, another NaNoWriMo!

Hey all!

Are you doing it?  Have you signed up for National Novel Writer’s Month challenge?  You totally should. If your an author, or even have thought about writing a book, this is the year to do it. 

The website address: http://www.nanowrimo.com

This year I handed the reigns over to my alter ego, Leigh Curtis.  She’s writing a book, tentatively titled: I’ll Remember You.  Think amnesiac cowboy/conman who falls in love with the feisty rancher’s daughter he’s supposed to con.  Lots of fun, angst, and cowboy/cowgirl goodness, I promise.

Other than that, I’ve been working on the last of my revisions for To Catch A Lady, the first book in my Regency set historical series, The Hunt Club.  I’ve got five Regency gentlemen who think they can outsmart the marriage mart and choose their own brides, pursuing and catching their lady-loves by using their hunting skills to do so!

Also, I’m finally resurrecting my Alternate Universe series, starting with Cry Wolf.  It’s a series about a race of beings descended from wolves and scraping out their existence under the heel of the English Regency aristocracy. 

Finally, my alter ego, Leigh is working on her first Menage story, a spicy western/sci-fi story about two beings hiding out on earth in the 1880s wild west.  The heroine is running from the law and a forced marriage when she meets two of the handsomest cowboys in west.  Desperate for a wife to complete their family, the two are also hiding out, from the most powerful man of their world who wants to claim on man for their own and destroy the other.  Lots of love, intrigue, and hot cowboy awesome-ness!

Time for me to hit the ‘nano’ trail.  Plus, I’m meeting up with my critique partner.  We’re going through final edits on the first book of my Urban Fantasy series, Grave Danger.  I’ll post an early draft of my cover created by my cover artist CLL, and my lovely cover model, HC. 

Happy Reading!
