Jane is a long time romance reader whose passion is, you guessed it, reading. Jane also does not like to talk about herself in the third person, but apparently this is the way that this biography thing works (although in a true biography, someone else would be writing this blurb). Anyway, currently Jane loves urban fantasy authors Patricia Briggs and Ilona Andrews. She's really excited about this year's crop of historicals including Joanna Bourne's The Spymaster's Lady and Sherry Thomas' Private Arrangements and the upcoming Loretta Chase Her Scandalous Ways.
She's looking for a good contemporary author. Email her with a recommendation!

Interesting idea~I’m curious to see how it pans out.
I’ll admit flat-out that piracy is part of why I’m not writing as much for my epubs. Filesharing sites have soared over the past year, and incidentally, my income has gone steadily down from my epubs. It isn’t because I’m not putting the books out, because I am. But still, it’s dropping. Could it be from something other than piracy? Market saturation, etc? Again, possible and it could be a combination of both.
I blogged about this not too long ago and I suspect in the coming year, I’m going to have to make a decision~either keep writing for my epubs as well as my NY pubs, or just focus solely on my print career. It’s not a choice I want to make, but I’m sick and tired of my work being pirated. I sell my books expecting compensation. I’m not trying to be greedy but I do expect my rightful compensation when my books are read. Seeing how many people flagrantly ignore my right to that compensation has me reconsidering that aspect of my career.
I need to get more ISPs. :-)
