Join Purple Sword Publications and our September Blog Party! Meet new authors, visit some favorites, find some great new books to check out, and best of all, be eligible for some amazing prizes. Email Robyn atpromorobyn@gmail.com for rules and more details. 

The prizes are as follows:

3. A Purple Sword ebook of choice.

Check back tomorrow for my own post, with the inspiration behind the Jewels of Desire series.

I Write Like

Ever wonder what famous author your style resembles?

Now, one quick copy/paste and mouse click will have you well on your way to knowing.  As an experiment, I pulled the opening scene of the latest installment of the Jewels of Desire book, which is set for release in the next few weeks (check back for details and updates!).

I Write Like by Mémoires, journal software. Analyze your writing!

I'll take it as a compliment, and aspire to one day be published by TOR and Harper Collins...though to be fair, I thought I should also pull a section of the *ahem* naughtier bit of the latest book, and that gave me Anne Rice. I'll take that too. :)

Lila's Back! With a Contest!

That right, folks, Lila's back.  Just in time for a contest for my publisher, Purple Sword.  It'll take a few days to get the new environment up and running, and the contest launches on September 1.  Stay tuned for additional details, but rumor has it the grand prize is an Amazon Kindle...
