Since it's a Monday, I'm back to writing. For a miracle, I managed to get 11 pages done before lunch. Since tomorrow is a questionable day and since my mother is coming on Thursday for a weeklong visit, I need to nail my page goals.

In the afternoon, I worked some more on getting Deadly Trade ready to publish, and worked on some minor editorials for Carpathian Shadows. For whatever reason, the fonts in the print version were all over the place. I fixed.

Again, I didn't get around to doing any of my video reviews. But I've got them planned. I won't do them tomorrow, either, since it's Bridge teaching day (actually, bridge teaching day now starts on Monday evenings. I had my first Monday evening class tonight--four delightful students. I think I'm going to enjoy them).

I only made a little progress in Touch of Texas by Tracy Garrett.

Okay, about the beautiful cover. I said I'd post it when it's legal. Here it is:

Cool, huh? Karen has really been getting good at this. Some of her earlier ones were a bit rough, but Michael liked this one so well he's planning on printing up a big version and hanging it in his bedroom. Not exactly what I had in mind for covers, but hey, it's his book.

Time is running out to buy Carpathian Shadows (Vol. 1) for only $1. Price goes to $3.99 on Wednesday so act now. I'm making it the www.BooksForABuck.com book of the day. A storm strands a group of tourists in a 17th century Transylvanian castle. There, the past, present, and paranormal all come in close contact. Too close for some. Learn more, read the excerpt, or buy the entire eNovel for only a buck here (available in HTML, Adobe Acrobat PDF, Mobipocket, Palm DOC, or Microsoft Reader LIT formats): www.booksforabuck.com/sfpages/sf_07/carpatian_shadows_vol1.html. Here's the cover (another of Karen's beautiful covers):
