Wow. Some days I didn&#8217;t think this day would come, and yet other days made me long for more time. Monday begins the start of a two-part moving session.</p>
<p>My family and I will be moving to California.</p>
<p>Then I&#8217;ll be completing a contract job overseas for a little over a year.</p>
<p>So for the next couple of months I&#8217;ll be family-focused. Yes, I&#8217;ll still be writing and working on The Beast. <img src='http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> I&#8217;ll also post when I get time, but the blog is being set aside for a bit.</p>
<p>For those going to conferences this summer, have a blast! For everyone else, just enjoy these next few months. I look forward to chatting with you all later.</p>
<p>I should be all settled in on the new job some time early September. The Beast is expected to be up for download the last weekend of August. I&#8217;ll miss you guys!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[&nbsp;&nbsp;<div class="meta"></div><p><img class="alignleft alignnone" style="float: left;" title="Traveling" src="http://www.xoprivate.com/img/operators/luggage-forwarding/first-luggage/first-luggage-l.jpg" alt="" width="269" height="179" />It is T minus 20 days in the Montgomery household for the &#8220;Big Move&#8221; also known as the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SNAFU">SNAFU</a> or <a href="http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Charlie_Foxtrot">CF</a>. Let&#8217;s just say, my family and I will be very happy to get settled in and have this move be over.</p>
<p>While it&#8217;s not the move itself that is driving my normally calm husband over the edge, it is a huge contributing factor. What is it about a move that makes all the people in your-soon-to-be-previous-job suddenly remember a thousand things they wanted you to do before you leave?</p>
<p>Or who knew coordinating with a moving company would be this difficult? To be honest, the only smooth part of this move has been the airlines.</p>
<p>There are few things about a move that&#8217;s easy and heading off to a new job is exciting and terrifying at the same time.</p>
<p>On the writing front, I&#8217;m still working my tail off in deadlines (personal ones). I&#8217;ve got a new release in July and one in August or September. Internet will be intermittent for a bit. I&#8217;ve already gone no mail on all the yahoo groups I frequent. <img src='http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> I&#8217;ll miss you all. So if you email me during the next few months, I&#8217;ll try and answer. If you want to know how everything&#8217;s going, check out my <a href="http://twitter.com/Dawn_Montgomery"><strong>twitter</strong></a>.</p>
<p>*Note: Image came from <a href="http://www.xoprivate.com/operators/luggage-forwarding/first-luggage/">The Luxury Travel Collection</a> which is full of things I wish I could use on my trip. LOL. They have a gorgeous website and I think I&#8217;m going to have a character use their services in a future book. <img src='http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

Bound in Lust, Bound in Fury and Bound Eternally are in this set. They&#8217;re my first books from Changeling. How awesome is that?</p>
<p>Check it out <a href="http://changelingpress.com/product.php?&amp;upt=book&amp;ubid=1156">HERE</a>!</p>
<p>One bite by a rogue demon has left Elena in the throes of a dark curse. It will take all Drake&#8217;s power to halt the change and save her life. In the depths of their dark lust she becomes something other, a bond mate to a demon of lust. Will it be worth the cost?</p>
<p>In the shadows a deadly adversary begins moving the pieces, creating a trap that will bring Drake and Elena into the darkest reaches of their hearts. Neither expects the depth of hatred from the Brotherhood or the lengths to which they will go to destroy one demon. Drake, it seems, has old enemies and they&#8217;re willing to overthrow Hell itself to destroy him.</p>
<p><strong>Publisher&#8217;s Note: This collection contains three previous published novellas, <em>Bound in Lust</em>, <em>Bound in Fury</em>, and <em>Bound Eternally</em>.</strong></p>

One of my favorite is a twitter-based horror Ezine called <strong><a href="http://twitter.com/tweetthemeat">Tweet the Meat</a></strong>.</p>
<p>My favorite one so far:</p>
<blockquote><p><span class="status-body"><span class="entry-content">Ribs cracked, flesh tore. The corseted girl fell, limp. He checked his gaudy book; he wasn’t sure he’d got this bodice ripping thing right.</span></span></p></blockquote>
<p>I almost died when I read that. Anyway, <strong><a href="http://twitter.com/tweetthemeat">go forth and follow</a></strong>. There are some VERY talented 140 character or less horror writers out there.</p>
