My web-mistress is putting together a new website for me. It won't be up for a while, though. I'm sick of the bright colors on mine---and blue...and the cartoon look. What was I thinking???? LOL I was trying to add that bit of comedy since I put a little humor in every book. Now I'm putting a lot. At least, I hope I'll make people laugh.
Web design: Close Encounters of the Sexy Kind has an alien in it who comes to our planet and we get a glimpse of how she views earth--and the hero. My Sept release, Double Dating With The Dead, has a psychic and a skeptic living in a vacant hotel for two weeks with two sex-starved ghosts. My story in the anthology, The Morgue The Merrier---also coming out in Sept.--- has a dead Elvis impersonator. I'm in another anthology in October and it's a straight contemporary comedy.
So now I have aliens, ghosts and straight contemporary. They're comedies and they're also very sexy. No wonder my web-mistress is going bald. Try fitting that into a web design! LOL I think we've decided on mystical. It'll be a nice change from cartoon.
I'm giving away an arc of Close Encounters of the Sexy Kind (okay, next book gets a shorter title!!!!) to one lucky person who makes a comment---because how else will I put your name in for a drawing--duh!
Hugs,

Love the new cover. The titles are all great too -- especially Double Dating with the Dead. With a title like that, you know there has to be humor. I'm looking forward to all of your '07 releases.

Woo-hoo, I can see the comments now!!!

Thanks so much for entering the contest. How about I choose a winner at 9pm central/10pm eastern time?
And if you don't win? Here's a little secret--I'm blogging at the Brava authors site tomorrow and I'll give another one away there.
Best of luck to all!

I love paranormal books, I cannot wait to read it!!
Karen, I can't wait to read Close Encounters of the Sexy Kind. I love your books and the humor in them. I can't wait to see your new website.
I can't wait for all of your new releases! The humor that you put in your books is always something that I look forward to.
Wow my comment showed up. I didn't think it did since I got an error mesg.
I would check you out on the brava site but it hates me. LOL
I like the cover. Congrats on the new book.
The cover is beautiful for this book and the story itself sounds fantastic. I always did love comedy mixed with the romance in a paranormal so this is my kind of book. Of course the other books you mentioned are all my kind of books too. I think I just aquired a new 'must have' author for my fav list.
I don't need to be entered in the contest, Karen, but wanted to say how much I'm looking forward to this one! I absolutely love the sizzling cover!
Karl picked lucky #13

i've never really entertained the idea of man making love to an alien. it looks sick. but reading the reviews, hmmm...i think i'm open to the idea of reading even just one. well, if you have a copy to spare, i'd be very much grateful.

Is Close Encounters of the Sexy Kind a paranormal fantasy book? Or paranormal romance? i'm not sure where it belongs.
