Southern Accents

Hey, y'all, I'm the featured author on Wattpad's latest podcast. It's my first podcast interview, so please come have a listen. I was greatly relieved to discover that my Southern accent is still intact. http://soundcloud.com/wattpad/jane-se...

USA Today picks A Billy Sunday Kind of Love

Today, Kathy Altman of USA Today's wonderful Happy Ever After blog recommended my November release, A Billy Sunday Kind of Love, as part of a roundup of historical novels.

Here’s a sam­ple of the lovely review:

“Sevier writes with a sub­tle, wicked humor and a sophis­ti­cated vibrancy that ush­ers the reader right into Depression-era Mem­phis — and Nell’s eccen­tric household.… Rich in South­ern ambiance, evok­ing an aura of men­ace, a tongue-in-cheek humor and a ten­der­ness all at the same time, this sec­ond book in the Psy­chic Socialite series has me des­per­ately hop­ing it won’t take Sevier long to con­jure up the third.”

How cool is that?

What makes a great book cover?

Next Sat­ur­day morn­ing (August 24th) at 8:20 at the Killer Nashville crime fic­tion con­fer­ence, the incred­i­ble April Mar­tinez, who designed my gor­geous cov­ers, will present a work­shop on cre­at­ing great book cov­ers. I’m sit­ting in to give the author per­spec­tive. At 9:50, I’ll be sign­ing both books, so stop by the Hut­ton Hotel and say hey. There will be lots of crime writ­ers like guest of honor Anne Perry on hand at Killer Nashville. All author sign­ings at the con­fer­ence are free and open to the public.

Nell Marchand Goes Hollywood!

So, this happened. A producer optioned Fortune's Fool and the Psychic Socialite series for movies and TV. How cool is that?
