The Melancholy Princess

 
4.0 of 5 stars4.00 Goodreads Rating
 
 
Princess Anne is unhappy at Court, and spurns all suitors. She is about to become a nun, when a midnight encounter proves to have unexpected consequences.

This is the first story in "Nine Princesses: Tales of Love and Romance." The book is most likely to appeal to fans of Jane Austen, Georgette Heyer, Shakespeare's romantic comedies, and/or the enneagram typology of personality. Each of the princesses represents an enneagram type.

Today we have author Michael Cargill on our blog! Not only did Michael do an interview for us, he was awesome enough to give us 10 copies of his newest book, just released last week, to give away!  See below for details.   Look at the person sitting just across from you. It doesn’t matter whether they’re a loved one, a friend, or a complete stranger. Now look at their face. Are they happy? Are they sad? Or are they angry? Can you even tell? How well do you actually know the people closest to you? Have you ever seen the real person that lies just underneath what you see…? <A HREF="http://ws.amazon.com/widgets/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&MarketPlace=US&ID=V20070822%2FUS%2Fmakingconne03-20%2F8003%2Fe1962181-4fde-4adc-abee-026d45bd31b9&Operation=NoScript">Amazon.com Widgets</A> Thanks Michael for the interview and the giveaway!  When did you first know you wanted to be a writer?

My characters are either naked or dressed to kill. Given they’re all monsters stalking the city of New Gotham’s twisted, cracked, and cobbled streets, the criminal wardrobe is part of the job description. Rockabilly princesses, corpse brides, leather queens…my city is full of them. Where do they get their menacing threads? There is boutique hiding out between the fractured, narrow store-fronts lining the foggy docks. The shingles are ribbed and black. Washed, peeling paint and displays offering views into wicked leather and lace studded glam. The mannequins are ghoulish beauties stitched together from whatever was left from the last fool to cross one of the sinister witches. Push open its shabby, frosted front door. Tiny white flakes of paint will pepper the wind like spectral dust and the minute you set heel onto waxy polished oak floors and step into the candelabra fire-light you know… This is where the magic happens. Welcome to Sinister Stitches “…apparel for ...

Q & A with Suzanne Johnson + Giveaway

About the Author: On Aug. 28, 2005, Suzanne Johnson loaded two dogs, a cat, a friend, and her mom into a car and fled New Orleans in the hours before Hurricane Katrina made landfall.  Four years later, she began weaving her experiences and love for her city into the Sentinels of New Orleans urban fantasy series, beginning with Royal Street (2012), continuing with River Road (2012), and now with Elysian Fields (August 2013). She grew up in rural Alabama, halfway between the Bear Bryant Museum and Elvis’ birthplace, and lived in New Orleans for fifteen years—which means she has a highly refined sense of the absurd and an ingrained love of SEC football and fried gator on a stick.   She can be found online at her website or her daily blog, Preternatura . As Susannah Sandlin , she writes the best-selling Penton Vampire Legacy paranormal romance series and the recent standalone, Storm Force.   Website          Blog  ...
