Killer Fiction's Deadly Beauties

http://killerfictionwriters.blogspot.com/

Considering I update with the lightening speed of a sloth, I figured I'd take this time out to pimp the ladies at Killer Fiction and their hella great blog where you can find all sorts of goodies. I mean, personally, I stalk the site over there. Mostly as a lurker (because, let's face it, I can't remember anything to save my soul from hell and by the time I remember to check blogs, everyone has already said my opinion), but after seeing Leslie Langtry this weekend, she has reminded me of my duty as her stalker to help her out.

But this isn't the point. I always get way off point. Another author that I adore is Gemma Halliday, who I've not had the pleasure of writer stalking yet. Gemma has a contest going on right now for an ARC of These Boots Were Made for Strutting. I must admit, I would love this book. I've never met a Gemma Halliday book yet that I haven't liked (even if only one of the stories is hers, I still want this book!). Her character, Maddie Springer, would be my best friend. I mean, hello, she's a shoe designer. I LOVE SHOES! I have these funky little white/black wingtip 4" heels that I wore in Chicago this weekend. I absolutely adore these shoes. We'll not mention that by wearing these heels, I become 6'4" because I'm not bitter or anything. Thank god for tall hot men like Ramirez. Jack Ramirez, whom I've loved faithfully since I first cracked open the spine of Spying in High Heels way back in Sept '06 and have been a faithful follower ever since. Even my girlfriend, Hellion, won an ARC of Undercover in High Heels and it was like she was telling me I had won the Golden Heart, a RITA, a multi-million dollar deal. I tackled her, ripping the book from her hands and nearly devoured her in my haste to read it.

I mean, she was going to give it to me. I didn't have to tackle her like I was a NFL linebacker. LOL

I'm sitting here in my office drinking my coffee in shock.

I've come to realize in my blogging haste that I've never written Gemma a fan letter. Wow. I'm like the lowest toad on the totem pole. I adore her books and I've never told her. I should be made to wear flats for a week as my punishment. Gemma, if you are reading this, I love your writing! I love your characters. I love your writing voice and every time you write Jack Ramirez on a page I want to slide out of my chair in a molten pool of lava and fan myself like a ridiculous school girl with a crush. Rock on Gemma !

Now, the point of this blog is to enter me in the contest to win the ARC of These Boots Were Made for Strutting. Go here ---> http://killerfictionwriters.blogspot.com/ and tell the world about this book! And about Gemma's High Heels series! www.gemmahalliday.com Don't miss this series! If you like Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series (which I cut my writer's teeth to) then you're missing out on another series just as great in Gemma's Maddie Springer books!

And of course, but last- but certainly not least- Leslie Langtry's next book, Stand by Your Hitman comes out in September 2008. This is another series if you haven't been reading, you must be in a underground bomb shelter with a record playing and wearing a poodle skirt. Get thee butt to B&N and pick up her books! http://www.leslielangtry.com/

http://killerfictionwriters.blogspot.com/ Don't forget this blog! And maybe sometime next week I'll update about my own lack of progress. *g* To which, Hal, smile it up now girlfriend because if you give me a week or two I'll be kicking your ass again on the war of words.
