Word Wednesday?

I don’t know if this will be a regular thing, but today, it works.  Courtesy of dictionary.com, today’s word is . . .

phantasmagoria

\fan-taz-muh-GOR-ee-uh\ , noun;

1. A shifting series or succession of things seen or imagined, as in a dream.
2. Any constantly changing scene.

Just rolls off the tongue, doesn’t it?  I had to share because I wondered if anyone besides me thinks that is a perfect title for an erotic paranormal set in a mental institution.

… carry on.  
From The Vault . . .

Some time ago I was writing and posting flash fiction on my blog.  It was fun, but I completely fell off the wagon.  I might consider getting into it again, though, because I honestly forgot what a great exercise it is.  Anyway, one of the pieces I wrote caught the interest of  Wicked Jungle – a new online community for fans of paranormal romance and urban fantasy (umm, hello!).  This could be my new favorite place to hang out and I’m looking forward to watching the community grow. 

I’m honored to say that my expanded flash is featured as a short story on the site this week, so go check it out!

I Can Has Ur Vote?

As I mentioned last week, I’m a finalist in the 2010 Chase the Dream Contest.  This is a fabulous opportunity put together by authors Rachelle Chase and Leigh Michaels.  Just finaling is quite a reward – I’m guaranteed to receive feedback from a very impressive panel of industry experts.  BUT that doesn’t mean I don’t want to win.  So, this is me, shamelessly begging for your vote. 

You can read the prologue of my Paranormal Romantic Suspense, Inner Eye, here.

And you can vote for me (or whoever) here.  I encourage you to read all the entries – they are fabulous.  It was tempting not to vote for myself. 

(But I did.)
