New photos up on my site this weekend (hopefully)

My new headshots are back from the photographer, and Webmaster Todd will be posting them this weekend -- at least that's the plan. Life can sometimes get in the way of the best intentions. ; ) I chose five photos, and Todd will be posting all five. One will be on the banner that's at the top of each page, one will be on the Events page, two will be on the Meet Lisa page, and one will be on the Contact page. So when they're posted, cruise around the site, check 'em out, and let me know what you think.

Update on The Trouble With Demons: I finished Chapter 11 last night, and will do Chapter 12 this weekend. I essentially re-wrote Chapter 11, and I'll be doing the same to Chapter 12 --and the book will be better because of it (and steamier). ; ) Once I finish 12 (and I'm determined to have it finished by Sunday night), the rest of the book only needs minor touches compared to what I've done to the past few chapters. I have approximately five weeks before the book is due back to my editor (end of August). My goal is to have done all of the major work to the book in the next 2-3 weeks, leaving at least two weeks to go back through it, checking for consistency and continuity, and to make sure that hints are dropped where clues need to be given. And as soon as I turn in TTWD, I have to immediately start writing Bewitched & Betrayed (B&B). I wanted to be started by August 1, to give me nine months to write it (deadline of May 1), but with the TTWD edits, I'll be losing a month, so that will leave me with only eight months to write B&B. Whew! But as I promised myself (and Derek), I'm going to write this next book and have a life at the same time. LOL. Wish me luck on that one. ; )

Coming up next week: Writer's block, 1st person vs 3rd person, writing & critique groups, music I listen to while writing, and how I plot a book.

Have a great weekend!
Lisa
