The Supernatural Summer Tour was a blast! I am still recalling the memories of having dinner with the other authors and meeting the fangtastic readers like all of you at the book stores.

When I returned I had a little vacay on the Caribbean and then back to business! I locked myself away from the sun and continued to write Vampire Kisses 8: CRYPTIC CRAVINGS. I had a lot of fun writing about the next installment of the love life between Raven and her dreamy and mysterious vampire boyfriend, Alexander. It is amazing to me that when I’m writing, so much happens that I hadn’t planned on. The characters come alive and like to do their own thing—which is great for me. It means that there are sub-plots or twists and turns that happen along the way when I write. Trevor, of course, gets his gorgeous face time and Raven creeps into some really spooky places.

Then at the same time, I was writing BLOOD RELATIVES 4! I was so happy to get back into the manga and explore what happens when Claude and gang are full vampires! Lots of action and vampire kisses!

Now I am reviewing the “close to final” manuscript for ONCE IN A FULL MOON. It too is full of romance and a hot guy who winds up becoming a werewolf.

I hope you enjoy both when they come out! FULL MOON will be out December 8th right before the holidays (pre-order your copy today), CRYPTIC CRAVINGS should be out in May, and BLOOD RELATIVES in September 2011. Hope you all are having a fangtastic summer!

Many fangs,

Ellen

Inspired by Vampire Kisses 7: Love Bites:

I am super-stoked to be part of the upcoming Supernatural Summer 2010 Tour! It is going to be so fangtastic to 1) meet the other authors 2) travel to great cities, and most importantly, 3) meet readers like you!!

I’ve bought a new pair of skully earrings that I thought would be fab to take along with me and wear to some of the events. And come to think of it, I might just have to buy a few more kitschy–cool accessories, too! Love to have an excuse to shop–and this is a great one!

I’ll have some Love Bites bookmarks that I’ll be handing out to all you fabulous readers who attend. Hope you like!! Continue reading »
