In the Spotlight – Terry Reid

dragonhead copy

Contrary to what the picture may imply, I’m not interviewing a dragon today. Of course anyone who knows me knows I adore dragons and would love to interview one. Well, one of the ones that don’t munch on people. But today I have an even better guest, the camera-shy author, Terry Reid. She sent me the lovely dragon to represent her. Works for me. Today we’ll be chatting about her novel, Crashing Down to Earth.

She primarily writes science fiction/fantasy novels and has published two books to date. When she’s not writing, she  enjoy running.

In the Spotlight – Clovia Shaw

for

Getting to interview Clovia Shaw is extra specially cool for me. Clovia is the friend who wrote the beginning of my author bio. The one that I’ve gotten a lot of compliments on and I’ve always said I couldn’t take the credit because it came from two other authors. Well, Clovia wrote the first part of it and I finally get to give her the credit she deserves. So thanks, Clovia! You rock, which of course, I already knew. Now I get to share some things about this clever friend and her intriguing debut novel, Nogitsune.

About Clovia Shaw

Clovia Shaw is an ordained Dudeist Priest (who can resist an Ordain Me! button?), a collector of Urban Vinyl art toys, and once designed a line of elongated pennies for belly dancers. She has degrees in both Journalism and Interior Design, and is probably thinking really hard about putting actual pants on right now.

A big fan of Kissing Books in which things blow up, Clovia lives in Annapolis, with her very patient husband and the ghost of a very good dog.

About The Howling Heart

(Releases 8/8/13)

SONY DSC

Paige Donovan is an ambitious college graduate who aspires to reach the top of the corporate ladder. She’s climbing fast when given the promotion of a lifetime at a prestigious fashion magazine in New York City. Her bright future comes to an unexpected halt after news of her father’s death. She inherits his old cabin in the Colorado Rockies and just when she thinks her luck couldn’t get any worse, she has a car accident in the mountains and awakens in the small, remote community of Black River. Soon she’s engulfed in the mystical world of Varulv—wolves descended from 12th century Scandinavia and blessed by Norse gods with the ability to appear human. Paige is desperate to return home, but never expects to fall for her rescuer, Riley Gray, a charming young werewolf from England who offers her an alternate future with his pack. Now she must choose between the career she’s always wanted and the love she’s always dreamed of.
