I'll be posting from lovely ValParaiso, Indiana for the next week.  The good news is that the in-laws have WiFi, so I'm currently sitting out on the deck enjoying the breeze and typing to you.  Cool, huh?

Also, I just got word from my agent that the British aren't going for DROP-DEAD GORGEOUS for a title for Tate's book three, either.  So, once again I need to figure a title for book three.  This is an on-going problem for Her as all the good DEAD titles have been taken by the much more popular vampire writers like Charaline Harris and MaryJanice Davidson.  Plus, I've given myself the added constraint of having the titles be ways of describing various states of hotness, ala DEAD SEXY and TALL, DARK & DEAD.  I've wanted to leave the dead thing behind, and have suggested titles like DAMNED HOT and BLOODY CHARMING, both of which I think are fine, but they've fallen on deaf ears in the marketing department.  Any ideas?

Otherwise, I'm planning on spending my time here working on the EMILY poposal and another urban fantasy one.  At some point, too, I suspect my agent will want a proposal for the next Tate book as well.

I tried to stir up some excitment on what_the_frak, but I had to go away for a few days and I think my lack of response may have ended any chance for a good conversation.  Plus, I wonder, too, since most of the people on the list are radical leftists, there's probably not a lot of new things to say or that will cause much excitement/argument.
