A Pink Cover Retrospective

Thursday, March 25th, 2010

No one seems to know quite what to do with The Secret History of the Pink Carnation. Over the course of its relatively short life span, it’s been packaged as chick lit, as historical fiction, as suspense, and as romance– sometimes by the same publishers.

Sunday, February 7th, 2010

Mini-Contest #4

Friday, February 5th, 2010

As the Pink Carnation birthday countdown continues….
Today’s contest follows logically off yesterday’s: of all those clever Rogue titles, which one is your favorite?
