Richelle Mead:
Welcome, all!

Hey Sara...I've seen you around the blogosphere.  ;)  I hope you're going to enter the Double Succubus ARC Contest!

Mickey Finn:
Hey! I've seen Amanda Ashley on the shelf. ;) (Paranormal romance isn't my normal field, so that's a good thing that I recognize the name).

And I've been waiting for someone to use Dead Sexy as a title...it's a line I've been meaning to work into a story I'm writing. ;)

I'm going to post a bio on myself. Honest.  I'm waiting on my roommate to get a hidden webpage up with some of my shorts for interested parties to read. *pokes roommate*

Willowhugger:
Hey, my name is Charles Phipps.

Alas, with a company that has sold sixty copies of my best selling book in Windstorm Creative.  :le sigh:  That's why I've submitted my next book to the Donald Maas literary agency (don't let ANYONE say otherwise-you need an agent).  It's called Hard Broiled Magician.   I'm very proud of the work and think its my best yet.  My previous books in the Machines Unbound series sadly cost an incredible period of two years in my life to write.  I even got friends involved in the writing.  Seeing it bomb so spectacularly (I can't even join the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association of America) really sent me into a deep depression for awhile.  I actually worry it's hurting my chances to become professional.

I wish I'd had a community like this to guide me through the bad steps along the way.  I also used to be head of a RPG company called Seraphim Guard.  Sadly, my time there was sort of marked by a lot of infighting in the ranks and all of our projects failed to materialize much in the way of RPGs.  I was actually quite proud of some of my projects that fell through.

Nevertheless, the best advice from my trials and tribulations is to keep trying and never give up your dream.  As soon as I succeed, I'll be able to say how it was worth it :-)

I also wrote some silly children's books called the "Wooing of Ozma" and the "Engagement of Ozma"."

Paige:
I have three books published through e-publishers. Two came out in print. Both are paranormal romances. The Shaman's Daughter, is a shapeshifter/ time travel. Fallen For You, involves a fallen angel and a witch. Fallen For You is a novella in Ellora's Cave, Cavemen anthology, Dreams of the Oasis 1 which is a collection of erotic stories. My third book is only in electronic format for now and it's a romantic comedy entitled Queen of Hearts, released through Cerridwen Press. I've got a short erotica coming out in February through Ellora's Cave, I, Robot Valentine, and, as always, am striving toward landing a contract with a brick and mortar house. I write under two names now, Alison Paige for works of erotic romance, and Paige Cuccaro for everything else. Depending on your definition of published I am and I'm not. :)

Drew:
Hi, I'm Drew Henriksen.  www.DrewHenriksen.comI hate talking about myself, but it is getting easier and easier.  The third book of my Dragon Tales & Stories triology, Dragons & Science is due out this summer by ArcheBooks.  My first two, Dragons & Wolves and The Dragon & They Detective are out now.  I'm not giving up my day job, or my night one.

I've been a stunt fighter on a few low budget movies.  One of the stuntmen www.mhstunts.com asked me to write a low budget horror flick for him.  Long story short, Saint Dementia was born.  They have distribution and things look good for investors.

I was just invited back to Icon and hope to meet Jim and Mickey too.  I asked to be put on any author panels that deals with martial arts, so I hope to get on one with Jim.

If I can only spell better.
