Love all the suggestions here. And, Carla, I think of books as my friends, too. So, can anyone gives us suggestions of new-to-you authors you discovered during a slump? My favorite find was Elizabeth Hoyt.

Hey, y'all, thanks for posting. Yeah, I think changing genres is sometimes the answer. But taking a break from reading, no way! I would go into deep withdrawal. The problem is that sometimes, even with boxes full of unread books, there are times when nothing appeals. That's where I am today, but you know what? I picked up an old Jillian Hunter book, and it is hilarious, about a bunch of pirates trying to turn themselves into Scots nobility. So, slump over!

Re: Viking in Love (5:56pm February 4, 2010):

Thanks for all you kind words.

Vikkii: A website called glomming.com? Unbelievable! I'll check it out.

Cynthia: LOL and much appreciative that you found Down and Dirty sexy, funny, and wicked.

Kimberly: I love the mother, daughter, aunt and sister bond with book. Next to glomming, sharing a book with someone else is the greatest thrill for an avid reader.

VikingPrincess: Bless you for buying the book the first day.

Shannon: It's always been my goal to go back and read all the classics, but there are so many good new books I don't seem to find the time.

Sara said: I think it's time for authors to realize and utilize a different venue for books. What it is exactly is evolving...

Sara: I agree. The traditional publishing modem of stripping books is a dinosaur that should have ended long ago. The problem is that other things are happening too fast for anyone to keep up. Even though ebooks have been around for quite a while, it took the Kindle to jump start a whole new marketplace, and now everyone else is jumping on that bandwagon. Like I said up top, it will be interesting to see how all this pans out in the end.
Brave New World, and all that.

Re: Santa Honey (11:21am October 24, 2009):

Also, I hope no one thinks I am against ebook readers. They are legitimate in the marketplace, and truly they are probably the future. What I do oppose are the pirate websites that steal copyrighted material.

Karen: LOL over your remark about the Sweeter Savage Love cover. I call that my "bag over the head "cover in that, at the time, I swore I would not sit in a mall signing that book unless I had a bag over my head. Ironically, that cover sold a ton of books, even to folks who claimed to hate graphic cover art. And funny story...you would not believe the fans who studied that cover with a magnifying glass and discovered...stuff. Thanks for the memory.

Re: Santa Honey (9:01pm October 23, 2009):

Thanks to you all who stopped by and those who said they like my books. I have a few really fun ones coming up. In February, I go back to straight historicals with VIKING IN LOVE, my medieval version of the Dixie Chicks video "Good-bye Earl," and later in the year, EVEN VIKINGS GET THE BLUES, my G.I. Jane meets Stipes book. Great fun, both of them!

Re: Santa Honey (8:58pm October 23, 2009):

No, Emily, it's not just paranormal and erotica authors who are being pirated. All of us are, no matter the genre. Big authors, as well as midlist, as well.

Re: Santa Honey (12:26pm October 23, 2009):

G. Bisbjerg and others: Thanks for telling me that my books helped you through hard times. Humor tends to do that. Right now, I am on a Maggie Osborne kick, reading all her old books. Great sense of subtle humor!

Re: Santa Honey (12:25pm October 23, 2009):

Hey, Cindy! Hi! One thing you mentioned I forgot about. Remember all those independent bookstores where the owners/clerks hand sold books, who knew your tastes and recommended new authors to you. That I miss already as we have lost Little Professors, Encores, and other independents in my area.
