It's Been One Year Since The Call!
Ahoy, me hearties! I'm celebrating today because, as of yesterday, it's been one year since I got The Call, actually an email, telling me that Crimson Romance wanted to buy my book, Duke by Day, Rogue by Night. What a joyous day that was!!!
If you want to see the look on my face, you can check out a photo of me sitting in the beauty salon on my twitter feed... @katherinelbone. LOL!!! (Pirates are never embarrassed.)
Friday will be the 1st anniversary of my 1st signed publishing contract. Boy, does that ever seem like yesterday and so long ago. And look how far I've come? Duke came out October 29, 2012, followed by Lost Treasure, Captive Princess March 4, 2013 and now the second book in the Nelson's Tea series The Rogue's Prize debuts in 12 days!!!
How am I celebrating? With rum, of course. It's a pirate's vise of choice, Strawberry Daiquiri, to be precise. You can see a picture of me celebrating my first sale and slurping a daiquiri on my twitter feed too.
In the meantime, don't forget to sign up for my Goodreads Giveaway. The Giveaway ends July 1st. I'll send you an autographed copy of Duke, plus swag, mateys.
Stay tuned... lots more goodies and fun to come!!!
Blessings,
Katherine

6 Weeks of Becalmed Weather!
Ahoy, mateys! It's been two long weeks since my last post, but my sails have been becalmed as I chart recovery waters. Aye, don't be downcast. I've got lots of things planned for ye all and I do hope you'll get a boon out of me news!
First, on September 26th, I'll be doing my first Goodreads Giveaway of autographed paperback copies of Lost Treasure, Captive Princess! The contest will end on October 29th, the first anniversary of the release of Duke by Day, Rogue by Night, my very first published romance. Isn't that a great way to start off the celebrations?
Plans aren't finalized yet, but I hope to have a little shabang for Duke's first anniversary too. Of course, this is something I can work on while becalmed. Right?
Second, there are some great things brewing. Funny how you can take becalmed winds and find productive things to do. I might not be able to spend more than 30 minutes at my computer yet, but ye ol' crow's nest is working again. Woot! And at high speed too!!!
So keep your eyes on that horizon, my friends. There's a BIG wind brewing on September 27th, if my stars align, with more giveaways galore on Paperbacks & Papercuts, where I'll be guest blogging.
http://paperbacksnpapercuts.blogspot....
Third, I hope you'll be as thrilled as I am. I'm writing a novella for the Nelson's Tea series! This will be a prequel. It's 1801 and Admiral Nelson has just been tasked with protecting The Channel. He knows more than anyone how ruthless Napoleon can be. A brilliant tactician, Nelson asks Simon Danbury, noted pirate hunter, to form a special force and train them in the ruses de guerre, concept of deception. An extremely private man and consumate bachelor, Simon enlists the help of a widow from his past ~ Baroness Chauncey. But the timid young woman he remembers appears like a lioness, thoroughly prepared to protect her cubs, as well as re-ignite passions he's spent five years trying to forget.
This is going to be one powerful and adventureous novella, me hearties! Steering for an early spring debut.
Aye, Katherine's been busy, eh? Keep your eyes on that horizon!
Blessings,
Katherine
