Liz signed for keynote speech
|
I've been asked to present the keynote speech for the 2006 Silicon Valley RWA writer's conference. The focus of the conference will be on the profession of writing as opposed to the craft of writing. Should be a great conference, and I've updated my Events page accordingly.

The great reviews keep on coming...
|
Reviews on Crimson City are filtering in: "CRIMSON CITY is the exhilarating opening paranormal romantic suspense thriller that will have the audience on the edge of their seat wondering if the star-crossed heroes can avert a cross-species war. The story line is action-packed, but the key to the tale is Liz Maverick’s ability to insure her prime players seem genuine in a realistic setting."

Get your Deutsch on again, because Adventures of an Ice Princess is going international. Apparently Die Martini Therapie tickled the right German funny bone and they just have to have more.

Liz gets USA Today nod...only a few pages away from the bestseller list!

The October 26, 2004 edition of **USA TODAY** spotlights The Shadow Runners in an action romance article (Page 4D. Heh.) and also mentions my 2005 series, Crimson City. Nice! Get thee to a newsstand for the print article (which shows the book cover) or read it online.

Sprechen Sie Cocktail? Liz sells German translation
rights.
|
Get your Deutsch on, because What a Girl Wants is going international. The prospective title? "Die Martini Therapy." (Apparently, that's what a girl a wants in Germany...not that there's anything wrong with that!) They promise that while they will change all drink mentions to martinis, the characters will not become more tipsy than already written.
