June News

I have only a couple of announcements this month.
I hope to attend the Rhode Island Romance Writers meeting 6/6. At least, it's on my calendar and that seems to be the trick to remembering things. 

I'm blogging in two places on 6/13 Hey, it just worked out that way.

I'm working on a super secret project, which I hope to tell you all about soon. Stay tuned!

May news

Ack! I'm, like, reeeaallly late for this post!
Oh well. I'm here now and just in time to tell you about my upcoming trip to Austin, Texas!
I'll be at the first Austin Authors Affair Friday, May 22nd and Sat the 23rd. There's a book signing on Sat and a meet and greet with the authors Friday night. Both are open to the public!

I hope you'll let everyone who might be interested know about this event. http://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-austin-author-affair-tickets-10371584689?aff=estw

April News

What happened to March?
I think March was one of those months I trudged through with my head down. Finally...it's April! I hit my deadline of March 31st. The snow is beginning to melt (just beginning) and I have some cool new news for you!

Two books are edited and 'in the can'. One will be released by the end of spring. I don't have an exact date yet. I'll post it here as soon as I know. The other comes out on the first Tuesday in October. I may even have a third book coming out this year! Stay tuned!!

Easter is an annual tradition now. My number one fan and I go out for Easter brunch! This year her daughter is joining us. I'm looking forward to it as I always do. But this year brunch will be served in a library! I'll take pictures. Watch my facebook page for posts.

Later this month, I'll be boarding Air Canada and going to the first ever reader/writer conference in Canada! The event is called Romancing the Capitol and it takes place in Ottawa. (Which is the capitol of Canada. Get it?)

If you happen to be there (or near by) there's a big book signing open to the public on Saturday April 18th. I hope you'll stop in and say 'hi'! Maybe even get a cool new book signed by its author.

Other than my annual mamogram, that's about all I have scheduled for April. Have a great one, everybody!

Feb news

Yikes! it's halfway through Feb and I forgot to post this month's news. Oh well. No excuses. But if you were to ask why, I'd say, snow; travel; snow; deadlines; and more snow. (You gotta love New England.)

Anyway...There are a couple of important announcements to make.

First: Gods Gone Wild with the bonus story by Terry Spear will be going away at the end of this month. (Boo hoo.) But Dalton and I will see that it's republished with our two related novellas. Maybe we'll include some other bonus material. Stay tuned. We'll all be surprised later.

Next and not least: How to Date a Dragon is on sale from now until Feb 27th! Woo Hoo! This is the book that inspired a whole new series. Boston Dragons has been contracted by my mass market publisher Sourcebooks, and the fist book will be released Oct. 6th.

So, there's plenty of time to read it later, but you'll want to buy it now!! (To tell your friends, here's a handy pre-worded tweet with a link.)

Why not curl up with HOW TO DATE A DRAGON by @GoddessAsh $1.99 on @nookBN ow.ly/IYqmF

Thanks everyone! Stay warm!

January News

I'm escaping winter, not 1, not 2, but 3 times this year!
Wahoo! Way to book vacations. So...that means I'll be making odd appearances in unusual places. I predict long walks on sandy beaches and an inevitable sunburn. But that's all I can tell you for now.
Of course I'll be writing too! Have laptop: will travel.

Stay tuned for news of The Cupcake Coven's rerelease. All 3 books are written. My agent is working out the publishing details, and as soon as I know them, I'll post them here!

Stay safe and warm, and have an awesome 2015! Happy New Year!

December News

Welcome to the Holidays! I've kept my schedule pretty simple on purpose to decrease holiday stress. Even so, I have a couple of superb events to tell you about.

On Dec 1st I'll be featured on Kathleen Kaska's Writer's Blog here: http://www.kathleenkaskawrites.blogspot.com/2014/12/bake-love-write-wecome-writer-ashyln.html

Then on Dec 6th...I'll be signing my books, giving away goodies, and selling my Euro jewelry in Needham, MA from 12-4. We'll be 40 authors strong! All genres. Come one, come all, and wear your tackiest holiday sweater!  http://www.bostoneventguide.com/user/submit-an-event/event/7921-penny-watson-s-holiday-bash-and-bookfair

Other than dozens of chiropractic and acupuncture appointments for my stupid, chronic, pain in the neck, that's it for me. I love keeping it simple.

If you're still looking for a holiday gift, consider ordering a copy of Bake, Love, Write. That's 105 authors strong with each one contributing a recipe and advice on love and writing. Just right for the experienced or budding writer on your list. 

October news!

It's October! A fabulous month for all things paranormal. If you get too much horror and need something light and fun, check out any of my books!

My schedule is still coming together, but it's filling up fast! You know what else is filling up fast? Registration for Canada's first romance readers and writers conference in April! I'll be there. Will you?
Romancing the Capitol

Oct 4th
I'll be giving a talk to the Rhode Island Romance Writers called Writers Be Crazy; Secrets to the Creative Mind. This will be my first time presenting this material but hopefully not my last. I'm looking forward to it.
