CONGRATS to Taler Scott for submission of Kalepa. *grin* I love that name.

CONGRATS to Michelle A. Bauer for the submission of Jy'lik. (This name sprouted about a bizillion fresh ideas) LOL

Thank you again to everyone!

What's on my read list!!

I have almost no time to dillydally and yet I can't help but read. Its my secret addiction. In the past month I've read these books and I looooovvveee them.

Seti's Heart by Kiernan Kelly
Dancing on the Head of A Pin by Kiernan Kelly
Snake Bite by L.E. Bryce
Sacrifice of the Stone by A.D. Christopher
For Love of Etarin by Naomi Brooks & Angelia Sparrow
Two Spirits by Jory Strong

Broken could happen?

So I've been busy writing and taking classes, and working as a tutor, and I'm like busy as hell. But in the back of my mind I've had a seed germinating. Ha! Like that doesn't happen EVERY day. Anyway, I've wanted to write a sequel to Torn. Not really a sequel considering Jaime and Joshua are not featured in it, but the story would be about a different set of twins, Richard and Ryan. The name that keeps drifting inside my head is "Broken". I've received some good feedback when I mentioned this idea to friends and readers. If I wasn't so freaking busy I would dare to start on it today...alas I have a bizillion things to do before I even start on it.

Well this is how I picture them... Jared and Kenano


Jared


In my mind the characters from The G-Strain look like this. By the way the G-Strain has been pushed back to March. The new date is only tentative.



















Kenano ...YUM!!

CONTEST

Okay, I'm a really big name fanatic. I purchased a book with over 50,000 baby names. Alas, I let a relative who was in the family way borrow it and they kept it. I haven't gotten around to purchasing a new one. I've been visiting baby name websites but nothing has caught my eye yet. Most of my stories are started because of name that inspired ideas, so names are really important to me. What I'm looking for is a submission of 'unique' names. They can be in any language or you can make one up. I just don't want Sam, Tom, Bob, and Jane--if you get my drift:). You can submit as many as you would like to my email address. sagewhistler@gmail.com. On January 25th, I will make my decision on which name I like the most. Not only will the name you submit become a character in one of my books, but I will send the winner a free copy of 'Torn' or 'All I Want for Christmas', depending on your preference.
