Almost there!

Update on The Trouble With Demons: Well, folks, I'm almost there -- finished, completed, done, ready to turn it in. WOOT!!!! I dropped back to Chapter 1 last week and went through the entire manuscript, reading, tweaking, etc. Some of the things that I thought needed to be fixed turned out to be just fine. The rest was stuff that was easily tweaked into shape. So Chapters 1-27 are ready to go. The only thing I have left to do is finish Chapter 28 and write 29 and 30. I am one more happy (and relieved) author! My deadline to my publisher is May 1, so not only am I going to make that deadline, chances are really good that I'll be turning it in early. I hope to be done before I leave for the Romantic Times Booklovers Convention in Pittsburgh on Wed., April 16. That's my new goal. ; ) That way, I can have even more fun at the convention knowing I don't have a deadline hanging over my head.

New Contest! Since some of you have read your copies of Magic Lost, Trouble Found multiple times, I thought I'd give you all a chance to replace it with a brand new, signed and personalized copy. It's only another four weeks until Armed & Magical hits bookstore shelves, so each of those weeks I'll be giving away a copy of MLTF and other book goodies. Just send me an email at lisa@lisashearin.com with "MLTF contest" in the subject line and you'll be entered to win. The winning names will be drawn on the next four Saturdays. You only have to enter once to be eligible for each week's drawing.

Make it a great Monday!
