As for book 2, it's coming along very well. Three quarters of the polish is done, and I'll likely start desiging the cover soon. This one may come out on Kindle and in paperback at the same time.

In the meantime I got my latest issue of Entertainment Weekly magazine, and my fangirl excitement is building for the upcoming season 3 opener of Game of Thrones, and the pilot of The Vampire Diaries spin off, The Originals. Love it!
