Confessions of a World Class Chicken
My name is Lexi George, and I am a bona fide chicken. The flying monkeys in The Wizard of Oz scared the crap out of me as a kid, I don’t do slasher movies, and, to this day, I have never seen The Exorcist. Like the Cowardly Lion in Oz, I do believe in spooks. … Continue reading

Romangst and the Bloody Sweat of Authors: Amber Belldene interviews Dear Author reviewer Kati Brown
Hi everyone–Amber here. Â When I first started writing romance, the level of critical discussion happening in the blogosphere was eye opening. Â Romance was no longer the genre of hidden paperbacks, like I thought when I started reading it back in high school, but a smart and serious craft. When I found the website Dear Author, … Continue reading
Night Demon by Lisa Kessler

What We’re Reading – Apocalypse Cow
Apocalypse Cow, by Michael Logan. First, a confession. I’m not a fan of zombie fiction. Zombie romance positively creeps me out. Admittedly, I’m from the George Romero shuffling-zombie generation, and that might account for my anti-zombie stance. And yet, a book I’m reading now puts me on the floor at least once every chapter (more … Continue reading
There’s More to Paranormal Than Fang, Fur and Wings
Hi, I’m Angela, and I don’t write about supernatural creatures. (LOVE to read them though!) What the heck am I doing on a paranormal group blog then? Good question. There seems to be a prevailing belief that paranormal romance is purely a romance involving some kind of supernatural creature, be it vampire, were, angel, demon, … Continue reading

Why I Write Beta Heroes
My name is A.J., and I love beta heroes. I know, I know. Paranormal romance is all about alphas. Alphas males and alpha females. And I get it. In a genre where the hero and heroine have to kill vampires and demons to get their HEA, there’s not a lot of room for “soft power.” … Continue reading
What We’re Reading – The Fallen Blade
Act 1 of The Assassini by Jon Courtenay Grimwood. I read The Fallen Blade a while ago, and I’ve just picked up the sequel, The Outcast Blade. I admit he had me at ‘fantasy renaissance Venice’. He had me twice at that glorious, eerie cover art. And this series definitely delivers – so long as … Continue reading
