I like reading. Always have, probably always will. It started with easy stuff, like Nancy Drew and the Animorphs. (Not that Nancy Drew and the Animorphs aren’t awesome.) Then my third-grade teacher gave me Watership Down by Richard Adams. I almost always list that one on my favorite books list because it convinced me that [...]

I’m Laura J and I love to read.

You want the truth? Well some of it, anyway. I’m an adult and I write novels for adults. And I love writing them, so I’m not about to stop. I write for Ellora’s Cave, Samhain Publishing, Loose-Id Publishing and Total E-Bound, and I love it. The best job I’ve ever had.

You should send that into Reader’s Digest. They have a page for people like you. – The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy

Once Upon a Time I was one of those kids who was always reading books until the wee hours, under the covers, with a flashlight. I always thought my mom didn’t know how much I sneaked my reading, but have since learned she knew alllll about it and just didn’t mind – she was just [...]

Okay, so, about me…let’s see. I love reading, I love books, I love holding books, buying books, sharing books, and even just looking at my books.

Final Update: If I have this right… ONE. THOUSAND. ONE. HUNDRED. FIFTY. DOLLARS! WE DID IT!!! WE DID IT!!! Our current goal is 260 comments… but I’m holding on hope that more people will step in with donations (of any amount) if we hit higher numbers! <3 Keep it coming! And to think, this started [...]

My thoughts on RomCon are all over the place. If you want an extremely detailed minute by minute playbook, this is not where you’ll get that. RomCon? Well, I’d do it again. I’ve never been to any conferences/conventions before 2010, but this year I’ve hit up RT, Lori Foster’s get together, and now RomCon. I [...]

Ok – so I’ve decided to celebrate random holidays each year. Last year it was the Chinese/Lunar New Year. This year, after a quick and random, totally unscientific twitter poll… it was decided 2010 I’d highlight Earth Day.

So… you might remember my part 2 of 3 post awhile back, titled Speak, Boo Boo, Speak. I wanted you to know that winners have been chosen and notified, and prizes have gone out. First up, there’s the grand prize winner who got a copy of Leave Me Breathless by the fabulous HelenKay Dimon. Names [...]

As we all know, there are some crazies on teh interwebs. We’ve all heard about them, read them, or even experienced them. If you’re an author, you might also get the bonus of getting some crazy emails. Fan letters, hate letters, the works. Every so often, an author will mention a “speshul” email on twitter. [...]

So… I posted it in the comments – but since I wasn’t clear… the winner of a brand new, shiny copy of Coming Undone is KARA Please send me your info – theduckeez@goodbadandunread.com I’ll draw another winner if you don’t contact me in 48 hours. And for future reference – my contests, winners will be [...]

I like to share the love (and you know, sometimes hate) – but right now it’s all about the food love. I’ve got 30 $10 restaurant.com gift cards to give away per day, until 11:59 EST on Christmas day. Of course, I’ll be running around, but will do my best to honor each and every [...]

Site will prolly go down at midnight CST.

How Ya? I am slowly ‘trying’ to dip my toes back into the pond.  My internet is still touch and go but I am trying to work with it.  Lawson was a doll and let me babysit her laptop for a weekend.  So I am down from 1200+ emails
