My name is Arlene Hittle, and I like to laugh. I hope my books make other people laugh, too. The never-ending bundle of energy that is Jamie Raintree recruited me to take part in a blog hop about my writing process. I met Jamie in 2009, when I undertook the NaNoWriMo challenge for the first […]
If you follow me on Facebook or Twitter or even Pinterest, you’ve already seen the cover for BEAUTY AND THE BALLPLAYER—probably more than once. However, it recently occurred to me that I have not yet shared it here on the blog. Allow me to remedy that problem, pronto, by introducing the cover for BEAUTY, my March […]
… For the news I’ve been waiting to share all week: My debut, DIVA IN THE DUGOUT is live. It’s been a whirlwind from getting the call in July to seeing my first book available for sale. I keep pinching myself, expecting to wake up and find the last few months were all a dream. […]
Can you feel the excitement? I sure can. My debut romance, DIVA IN THE DUGOUT, will be up for sale at Turquoise Morning Press this week. To celebrate, this week’s My Sexy Saturday seven are from that story. (Yes, this time I’m using a snippet from the actual book, not something I cut.) This moment […]
My debut novel, DIVA IN THE DUGOUT, which comes out in less than a week, has its cover. Isn’t it a beauty? No, wait. That’s book two, BEAUTY AND THE BALLPLAYER, which is coming out next March. (Sorry. Couldn’t resist.) I love it! The stadium and baseball glove in the background … the models … MY […]
Thank goodness for My Sexy Saturday. Without its weekly posts, this blog would get none of my attention at all. Does it matter that I’m waist-deep in the first draft of my third Love and Baseball story? It’s still untitled for now, but I’m falling for Anne Marie Becker‘s suggestion, SLIDING INTO HOME. It works […]
Er … don’t get the wrong idea. There’s only one Wild Boy, actually. I just couldn’t resist the chance to misappropriate another ’80s song title for a blog post. (Like The Escape Club, I’m living in the ’80s— just not headed for the ’90s. We’re smack-dab in the middle of 2013. Yikes. How did that […]
I’ve never liked the number 13. And I’m not alone. According to Wikipedia, the Stress Management Center and Phobia Institute in Asheville, N.C., estimates that 17 to 21 million Americans are affected by a fear of this day, making it the most feared day and date in history. “Some people are so paralyzed by fear that they […]
Good morning, everyone. It’s Saturday, and you know what that means: Time to kick back with another round of My Sexy Saturday reads. The rules: Post 7 paragraphs or 7 sentences or 7 words. The choice is yours. It can be from a WIP or something you already have published. Your post should be live […]
In case you missed the good news on Facebook, I signed another contract today. And this time, it was a multi-book contract. That’s right: I sold not one but two more books in my baseball series, tentatively titled “All’s Fair in Love & Baseball,” to Turquoise Morning Press. They sent me an email earlier in […]
