Who’s participating in Nano this year? Bueller? I am, under Diana Pharaoh Francis, if you’re interested in commiserating. I’m also going to do my best to post wordcounts up on the blog pretty regularly. By way of motivation to keep writing. Since I’ve been in a bit of a funk.

In another post of shameless self promotion, I’m asking you to post reviews of Bitter Night (and my other books too, let’s not make them feel bad), on Amazon, B & N and wherever else you can. It would be incredibly wonderful.

On another note, if these words were real, what would they mean? Are they verbs? Nouns? Adjectives? Definitions please!

The Turning Tide is coming

Di Francis — Sat, 25 Apr 2009 04:40:11 +0000

Hey Everyone~

Much depends on the sales of The Turning Tide. The initial print run is lower than I like, and I would love, LOVE to see it go into a second printing very quickly. This would also mean more books in the series. So. Do me a favor. Go order your copies, tell your friends, tell your enemies–tell the guy on the bus. If you like it, do reviews, blog, spread the word. If you don’t like it, that’s okay too. Go bug your bookstores and ask them to carry it if it isn’t there. Keep bugging them.

I’ll post the first chapter or two in the next day or so. Look for it.

Hope all is well wilth all of you. I am tired. And it snowed again today. Ug.

Under Construction

I’m in the process of rebuilding my site, so check back often to see what I add.

coming at you from wordpress

Di Francis — Sun, 01 Mar 2009 03:38:21 +0000

So. I’m working on a new website. Long story short, I can’t upload my old one to my new host and wordpress has a lot of flexibility. So I’m learning how to use it. If you go to my website, you’ll see my progress so far. It isn’t actually much, and it’s rather plain looking, but it’s huge steps from a couple of days ago. Thanks to Ilona and Kenna for helping me so much. I plan to keep posting at lj for my primary blog. Stuff that I want to have on the website, too, I’ll mirror over.

I’m trying to reaquaint myself with css and html code so that I can tinker. That’s working fairly well. Figuring out the wordpress code is a bit more interesting. But I’m getting there. Anyhow, that’s the update for the nonce.

Building a new site

Di Francis — Fri, 27 Feb 2009 20:39:14 +0000

I’m in the process of building a new website using wordpress. I’m a newbie at WordPress, so have patience. Soon all the content of my old site and more should be available.

In the meantime, my blog is here, if you want to know more about what I”m doing.
