Okay—I think I’m finally ready to dive in to this (cess)pool of demented humanity. I realize I have a lot to learn about how this stuff works—for instance, I didn’t know the forum was running a discussion about how Jackie and I are the nicest people in UF—well, that’s true. But there are some devious individuals who shall remain nameless (but whose initials are Derek or Lord Ruthven) that think they are going to stir up a fight between us. Oh, you have no idea who you’re messing with…. But we’ll take this up in person at Dragon*Con, won’t we? Be warned. Anyway, back to the intro—I’m Jeanne Stein. Besides being the nicest person in UF, I’m the author of the Anna Strong Chronicles. I love anything UF, Joss Whedon, Vampire. I share a blog with Mario Acevedo here . We post twice a week-- Mario posts on Monday, I post on Wednesday. Mario will pop in with an intro himself but right now he’s in revision mode so he barely has time to breathe, let alone post. And if you know Mario, you know he ...

So. Nice weather we've been having. It snowed on Monday. Which was neat. And then it all melted on Tuesday. Which was okay. And it's been cold, and blah blah blah. But they've been predicting more snow. And last night it hit. And it made me stupid. See, all day I'd been thinking, "I should go to Tesco, just in case, and get some things." But it was cold, and I was lazy, and our Tesco is always a nightmare; it seems to be some sort of vortex, wherein people are drawn to stop still in the middle of the aisles and push their carts at an angle across them, and stare at the ceiling with their mouths open. Perhaps they're receiving celestial messages of some kind? Or there are things written up there, which only English people can see? I don't know. What I do know is they clot the aisles like horse manure on a country road; couple that with the Tesco employees who are constantly stocking the shelves--usually whatever it is I need, they've positioned thei...

Heeeyyy, everyone! For those who have no clue who I am, I'll keep this short. My name's Dakota Cassidy, and I write fluffy (like lightly whipped fluffy), humorous paranormals for Berkley Sensation. Mark Henry invited me to join the League after I threatened heinous acts of violence against his person, involving my stilettos and an old can of Aqua Net. After much resistance, and the utter ruination of a sassy pair of red pumps, here I am :) In celebration of my forced entry... er, induction to the League--I got booty for ya :) Here's what I'm in for, and this is what ya gotta do--post in the comments section. Just say hello--that's it :) That enters you in the contest for... A signed copy of the second book in my Accidental series,   Accidentally Dead , but that's not it. I'll buy TWO books--winner's choice--written by any of the authors here on the League. That means you could win books by Caitlin Kittredge, Jaye Wells, that meanie-butt Mark Henry, Miche...
