Tori and The Great Google Ad Experiment

Well, folks, I guess it's true. There is a dearth -- an absolute vacuum -- of folks out in the cyber-world advertising demon extermination services.

Tori sent this email to my gmail account: Julie, per our discussion on your blog post yesterday, I was wondering if you had any good tips on killing demons. We seem to have an infestation here. And nothing I try gets rid of them! ;)


And what did I see where the ads usually run? Nada. Zip. Not one thing!

Clearly, Kate needs to run some ads. Actually, that's not a bad promo idea! Whadda y'all think?

From Russia With Love ...

Oh yeah! Got a box from my agent today, and in it I found the Russian edition of The Prada Paradox (thus completing my set), along with a cool red cover with a devious-looking black cat. Took me a minute to realize it's Carpe Demon. Looks sweet!

I love foreign editions. Wish I could read 'em!

Whoo-HOO!

PROLOGUE

I never actually wanted to be one of those girls. At least not the sleazy, too-tight Lycra, jump anything that moves kinda girl. But I did want ... something. And I wasn’t getting it by being the girl next door, that’s for sure. I mean, when this all started, I was twenty-seven years old and I'd never even worn thong underwear. I'd never had cybersex. And I certainly hadn't ever done it anyplace even remotely public.

I guess, when you get right down to it, I just wanted sex. Good sex. Amazingly Good Sex. With a capital A, and a capital G, and a capital S. And, frankly, I wasn't getting any. Which meant I was on a mission to remedy that little problem.

You see, it all started with a simple New Year's Resolution...

Check out my new release!

Hard to believe it's been 7 years! My very first book hit shelves in February of 2000, and it's just been re-released, with a brand new cover (it's my current profile image).

If you missed it before, I hope you'll check it out now. Here's the back cover copy:

For author Paris Sommers, truth has become stranger than fiction. she's fallen in love with a man who exists only in her mind—a man she invented as a pseudonym for the fast-paced, testosterone-laden spy novels she writes. Now the man of her dreams is standing beside her, touching her, loving her.— But who is he?

Bar owner Devin O'Malley wanted Paris the first moment he saw her. And he was willing to do just about anything to get her—including becoming novelist Montgomery Alexander, but his deception worked too well. Before long, he'd stolen his way into Paris's bed and into her heart. Was she in love with Devin—or the fantasy he portrayed?

Ghouls ... and more Ghoul's!

Found another cover for THE GOOD GHOUL'S GUIDE TO GETTING EVEN online. How funny that I never saw this version!



Here's the true cover (I'm sure it's the right one because the style matches the cover for the sequel. Just in case, though, I'm double-checking with my editor!).



For the record! I like the "real" one the best!

Ha! Found it!

Found the image of the dutch edition. I love this; wish it weren't so small as well.

Carpe Demon Japanese Cover!

Okay, the cover is tiny, but isn't this a darling cover? This is for the Japanese edition of CARPE DEMON: ADVENTURES OF A DEMON-HUNTING SOCCER MOM

I also just received the Dutch edition, which I love, but I can't find it online. My scanner is broken, so I'll just have to suffer. Will post when I can!
