A Taste of Kisses Like A Devil and Talk of The Southern Devil

April 29, 2009 | News, The stories

Hullo again!

Please drop by Unusual Historicals tomorrow (as in, Thursday, April 30th). We’re celebrating their Excerpt Thursday together with a taste of KISSES LIKE A DEVIL. It’s taken from later in the same scene as the excerpt posted at my website comes from. (And yes, I have been called a dreadful tease before!)

I’m blogging at Unusual Historicals this Sunday, May 3rd about THE SOUTHERN DEVIL and the very special Colorado mountains of 1872. Please feel free to drop by and ask any questions you’d like. Heaven knows those were a wild and crazy time and place, which were almost as intriguing to research as they must have been to live through.

Happy reading, y’all!

A Riverboat Sets Sail

November 16, 2008 | Better than chocolate, News

So many riverboat stories talk about life from the passengers’ point of view, where the river looks safe – or at least relatively placid. Well, rivers aren’t tame, as this spring’s floods reminded us. I visited the Missouri River after the great 1995 floods swept through. Those scenes haunted me while I wrote THE RIVER DEVIL

When the time came to think about a book trailer, I wanted one which would convey the danger facing the riverboats’ crews. Men who could only travel the Missouri River by daylight because every shadow could conceal a deadly enemy. Men who balanced on drowned trees to cut them apart with axes so boats could pass, carrying desperately needed food. Boats whose round-trip voyage from St. Louis to Montana occurred only once a year and but whose lifespan was probably only 2 or 3 years before its bottom was ripped out by a drowned tree or its boiler blew up. And a river that runs so fast Lewis & Clark clocked it at a whirlpool’s pace and it’s now 500 miles shorter from the Rockies to the ocean than it was in their day…

I hope you enjoy the book trailer created by Circle of Seven Productions! I sure did.

Diane
