Greetings, Friendlies and Unfriendlies. May the force be with you.
Monday is my day to review a book. I still plan to do that, just not right now.
Seems I still have about 30 pages left to read of the Iron King. I hope to finish that sometime this afternoon. I’m rather curious to see how it winds down.
Until then, allow me to point you to some recent Shadow Cat reviews & giveaways, as well as a couple of interviews.
Yara at Once upon a Twilight reviewed Shadow Cat. She’s also did an interview and giveaway me.
Blood Rose Books reviewed Shadow Cat.
ParaYourNormal interviewed me and is offering a copy of Shadow Cat. Plus stop by for the Talk Radio interview today (3 pm PST/6 pm ET). You can put me on the spot.
The number is 619-639-4626.
Good luck to all who enter, and I hope to talk to you real soon.

Reena Jacobs is just your typical writer who loves to see her words in print. As an avid reader, she’s known to hoard books and begs her husband regularly for “just one more purchase.” Her home life is filled with days chasing her preschooler and nights harassing her husband. Between it all, she squeezes in time for writing and growling at the dog. You can find Reena on Ramblings of an Amateur Writer, Amazon, Goodreads, Barnes & Nobles, and Smashwords.

Thanks Reena for your comment on 2/11. I’m a little behind.

I admire your focus here on your blog. I need to read your info about indie publishing. When I am not distracting myself with handwork, I am getting my first novel ready to go as an e-book. Thanks for all the good info here.
Lindsay ~ The day after I released Shadow Cat, I sent out review requests to several bloggers. They’re trickling in. Hopefully, I’ll get hit with a surge soon since it’s been a couple of months. Other than that, I signed up for one blog tour (Book Lovin’ Bitches) which starts March 7 and includes 8 stops.
Purplume ~ I’ve been very lucky to have so many authors be generous with their time. The idea of self-publishing wasn’t something I originally considered, so I didn’t devote much time to researching it until recently. Those authors with more experience have been quite helpful with catching me up. I learn something new or am encouraged with each guest post/interview.
