The Midnight Hour is thrilled to welcome guest blogger ALEXIS MORGAN! Alexis will be giving away a signed copy of her new book, DARK PROTECTOR, to a winner picked from the comments.
Devlin Bane: Born a Paladin, his is a member of an a ancient band of warriors locked in a centuries-old war against evil. […]
That’s right. Erin McCarthy and I are offering you the chance to name our fictional vampire band. Picture southern rockers except with unusually pale skin and fangs. The band will appear in both of our upcoming paranormal romances. In fact, we hope the band will appear in several of our books. […]
Okay, so I was watching the Gilmore Girls season opener last night, and there was a moment that just made my girly heart flutter…
See, the guy in this show is a total rough and tumble, gruff, man’s man kind of guy (I’d post a picture, but Blogger hates me this week). And he’s just lost […]
The Midnight Hour is thrilled to welcome literary agent Michelle Grajkowski of Three Seas Literary Agency as our guest blogger today! She will be popping in to answer questions on any topic, so here’s your chance to ask that question you’ve always wanted to know the answer to…
Today, I’ve been thinking a lot about goals. […]
I’ve been thinking about themes in writing. I always say that even the lightest souffle has a recipe that must be “just so” for it to all come together. Which is to say that even the lightest of books can have some pretty heavy themes involved.
This isn’t what I used to think about when picking […]
New York Times best selling author Tess Gerritsen’s new thriller, THE MEPHISTO CLUB is out right now, and it’s about devil worship, Satan and other such scary stuff. Tess writes gritty and dark, and apparently has really hit the core of the scary side of this kind of issue.
On her blog, she posted that on […]
I have a confession to make: I’m not a paranormal author.
I was a little bit surprised, then, to find my book, Spirit Willing, Flesh Weak, listed under “paranormal romance” on eBay. (Yes, I know, I’m sad for looking up my own books on eBay. I’ve learned to accept my pathetic nature and hope you will, […]
I’m a professional, I’m a career woman, I like people to take me seriously. And these are my socks. They’re a little hard to get on (labor intensive, anyone?). They’re a wee bit uncomfortable (not a huge fan of material between all my toes). But I love them. L-O-V-E. LOVE.
Why? Because these socks have attitude. […]
The Midnight Hour is thrilled to welcome award winning Scottish historical author Sandy Blair. Sandy will be giving away an assortment of prizes to winners picked from the comments, including an autographed copy of A ROGUE IN A KILT, a signed cover flat for A THIEF IN A KILT and other goodies. We all know […]
Though I am partial to Spike, I do carry a special torch for the original vampire-with-a-soul, Angel. David Boreanaz is hot. And I’m still watching him on that show Bones (although the chick annoys me…and am I right that they have zero chemistry?).
Yeah, I know. Some people don’t like the beefcake shots. But I do, […]
Ack, I’m on deadline, and my characters are just being totally nuts. For those of you who don’t write, I know this seems really strange. I mean they are my characters, right? I did make them up, so shouldn’t they do what I tell them to? But you know, they are […]
We’ve just had the fifth anniversary of 9/11–although it feels weird to use the word “anniversary” about something so horrific.
9/11 is an odd time at our house because it’s my youngest son’s birthday. He was 10 on that fateful day and still home from school when everything went to hell because I’d made cupcakes […]
A new television season is coming – and in some cases already here. This is the time of year when I really miss Buffy and Angel and Spike, but I suppose I’ll manage to get by somehow.
There have always been fantasy sci-fi shows on television, which proves that even though there is a current surge […]
A few pieces of paranormal trivia for you today, in lieu of a more thought out post as I am way behind in pretty much everything…..
What historical figure did Bram Stoker base his character Dracula upon?
Vlad the Impaler.
In the movie ‘The Lost Boys’ which character was the head vampire?
Max. No, it wasn’t David.
D.B. Cooper was […]
Hi All!
Last weekend I attended Heather Graham’s Paranormal Author and Reader Conference in New Orleans. I was honored to be called personally by Heather to join this, which she planned in part to get tourism back into the city. But it was also just a great, low-key conference with authors, aspiring authors and […]
