Can you believe it's already December?

I feel slightly nostalgic about 2011. On personal note, I had literally the biggest event of my life: the birth of the Boy. He's around six months old now, and soon he's going to have his first mashed-up bananas. I can't wait to see the expression he's going to make! He so loves to eat!

On the professional side, I released two books -- Destiny Entwined and Carnal Secrets -- and I'm going to have another one -- The Last Slayer -- out on December 26.

To promote The Last Slayer, I'm going to be guest blogging, doing interviews and giveaways, etc. Please check my blog, Twitter, Facebook, and/or Tumblr for the latest information. In a week or so, I'm also going to be giving a few copies to my newsletter subscribers. If you want to get the latest information about my books and be eligible for subscriber-only giveaways, sign up here!

Happy holidays, everyone!

* That's the Boy next to a giant banana display. I thought it was apt!

August is probably the hottest month where I am. It's muggy and scorching. That doesn't mean I get to rest. :-)

I turned in edits on The Last Slayer on July 28th. I need to wait on my editor's feedback. I'm really hoping we get done w/ the final round (copyediting) by the end of August.

On a somewhat related note -- on July 23rd I started the 500 Words a Day challenge. I have over 4,500 words written on the sequel to The Last Slayer, even though I've been writing no more than 650 words a day. As a matter of fact, my daily word count ranges between 509 and 636. Something I realized through the process is that I don't have to write a lot. I just have to write some to get the momentum going.

I plan to continue with it in August. If all goes as planned, I'll be done with the sequel by the end of the year, if not sooner.

Here's a non-Slayer related news item: Bettie Sharpe and Stella from Ex Libris gave five-star reviews to Carnal Secrets and A Happily Ever After of Her Own, respectively. Bettie's review is found here and Stella's is on her blog.

I also signed up for Kindlegraph. You can view my profile here and request digital inscriptions for any Nadia Lee titles you have on Kindle.

Finally, I'll leave you with the latest picture of the Boy. So many people have asked about a new picture, so here it is. (He's over 12 pounds now...!)

Hope you all have a fabulous August!

I've been somewhat quiet on my blog, etc. for a while. I'm still alive, just busy with the Boy and edits on The Last Slayer. Since the birth of the Boy, there have been two reviews, one of Carnal Secrets and the other of A Happily Ever After of Her Own.

The Lovely Bettie Sharpe gave Carnal Secrets five stars:

I've never been too enthusiastic about categories or contemps, but I am a Nadia Lee fan, and didn't want to pass up one of her books just because it wasn't quite my thing. So I read [Carnal Secrets]. It pulled me in, made me care, and made me cry. Which just goes to show that no matter your expectations or sub-genre preferences, the right writer can make all the difference. A good story is a good story; Carnal Secrets is a good story.

I was flattered to read her review as I consider Bettie to be one of the most talented writers out there. Her work is amazing, and I highly recommend all her books.

Stella from Ex Libris, one of the sweetest reviewers and book bloggers I know, gave five stars to A Happily Ever After of Her Own:

...a delightful and entertaining, original and laugh out loud funny, modern fairy tale retelling... A definite keeper...

Thank you so much, Bettie and Stella!
