I am under current deadlines for my Sidney Ayers projects, so those take priority right now. I’ve also got another paranormal/fantasy historical project I’m planning on concentrating on as well. Again, the contracted stuff takes precedence, though.

The books page has info on the Fey Chronicle series. Feel free to read and offer your opinions and suggestions. The books are still in the brainstorming process.

Also, today I got the new Romance Trading Cards for WINGS OF DESIRE. Let me know what you think!

Clicking the photo should bring up a bigger view of each card.

Updating WordPress ate my entire blog… http://ariannaskye.com/blog/?p=15 http://ariannaskye.com/blog/?p=15#comments Wed, 29 Feb 2012 02:16:01 +0000 admin http://ariannaskye.com/blog/?p=15 I tried updating to the new version of WordPress and it told me I needed to upgrade to MySQL 5.0. I thought I was already on 5.0, but that’s moot now. I went in, set up  5.0 and then got a lovely error that my SQL server wasn’t running. I went into my WordPress PHP settings and corrected the server settings. Then WP decided I needed to reinstall. It deleted all my posts, comments, widget settings–basically everything–since 2009. Oddly enough, all my themes and plugins were still installed. After fidgeting around for an hour, setting up my widgets and using Google cache to look up my old blog posts, I decided I didn’t really lose much, save for a bunch of fattening fudge recipes (all of which I have documented on my hard-drive anyhow). My last posts before the one I did showing my new book cover was from September 2010, for a fundraiser that was long past over.

Oh well, you live and learn, right?

I’m taking a bold step in trying to self-publish my very first novel. I recently got the rights back from my original publisher. I’ve hired an editor and just got the final cover from the Artist.

 

So what do you think of the new cover?

 

This is pretty much a trial and error thing. I’m still new to the self-publishing thing, so it will be an interesting adventure to say the least.
