I love Scifi and fantasy, I really do, but sometimes I find unique books that are just a kick in the pants. Check these suckers out.

Snagged from Amazon Description of FAT ASSASSINS

– “Southern style sweet-potatoes Shasta and Ulyssa have stuck together through thick and thin since their escape from third grade fat camp. But on one dark day, they both find themselves unemployed. A hazardous job hunt sees them turn down egg harvesting, drug dealing and phone sex before they settle for an exterminator job. Confusing mafia lingo leaves the girls thinking they’re being interviewed to cope with a rodent infestation. Confident that they can handle the job, they oversell their skills and demand half payment up front to seal the deal. Skeptical at first, the mob boss decides to hire this unlikely pair when he mistakes their attitude for professional stoicism. The girls are shocked when presented with a target profile and an envelope full of cash. They want out, but it’s too late. The mob doesn’t allow do-overs. And certainly not when they’re whacking one of their own. The clock is ticking and when the body count is still zero after multiple attempts, the boss decides to bring in additional assassins to finish the job and tie up loose ends. And the girls just happen to be one of those loose ends.”

This is going to be incredible, I have to get it. You know I tell you when I know the author, but this time I don’t. The story just sounds fantastic. I don’t know if I’ll get to review it on the site because I’ve no idea if there’s any erotica in there. Probably not, but i can’t make any promises.

Now onto an author I did get to know. I’ve been associating with a bunch of authors lately for business purposes, but this one stands out to me. The writing also isn’t Scifi/fantasy, but dang is it ever UNIQUE. I mean Unique. You will hate this book. I mean, you will hate to love this book.

Think Cannibal. Think young girl. Think a normal family trapped in a desperate situation. It made me think, a lot about life. So I will be writing a review over that book soon.

There are still some great books I need to write reviews for too, but I’m trying to pace myself. I only read what I’m in the mood for, and if I only read part of something and didn’t quite finish, it usually means there was a slow part and life with my daughter overran it. If Abb can lure me out of a book completely, there’s probably something to it.

Besides, I was just enthralled with Eating Lizzy. Not the kind of mood to start reading Sam the Garbagehound. Although I do love that book, I’ll share that with you sometime. It must be one of my daughters favorite book, and it makes me feel so good inside when we read it together.

Yes. I believe Doctor Who should count as a date. If it doesn’t, then I haven’t had a date in some time with my hubby. If it does, then we’ve had over 300 dates the last two years.:)

Whether you enjoy the Big Bang or Doctor Who, you’ll get a kick out of this.

We have been going through a whirlwind of activities. The biggest one is changing my partnership ‘family press’ to a solo job. Yep, all on me. My hub gets home way too late to help with anything these days, so I’ve had to change a lot of my ways to a one woman handling thing perspective. When I became sick with an infection, it was really hard to pull through, and so many things fell behind because I wasn’t well.

I had some serious back aches, some womanly problems, I was fatigued, complete loss of appetite (went 36 hours before my body really wanted food!) I was working really hard to try and keep up the pace, but without any help or support at home, it was too tough. I was moving too fast, and I made myself sicker.

I was  sick, still raising my toddler with our two dogs and cats, and no one to help until after 9:00-9:30 PM. It was coming to the point where I didn’t even know how to wash dishes. I thought at first that I might have to lose my publishing company.

However, two out of three authors believed I would be okay and kept up.  One of them, Rob Andrews, showed great confidence, and looking at the lack of what I’d been able to do for him since KDP select showed up, (same time as publishing) I was fairly confident he would like me to help him self publish.

He didn’t want to leave though, and neither did the other. It made my heart almost burst. I knew I would have to start changing things, take on fewer things, and concentrate on different angles to get Dam Good to run.

Which is really the weirdest thing. Whenever visitors visited Read It In 7 Days (My long term review blog before this) or Not So Innocent, I rarely mentioned my books. Really rare, I just wanted to frickin’ read and share. However, to keep my sanity I am blending the two together. So people can see my press books and my books who visit. So I can talk about the ups and downs of publishing. So I can still be reviewing books, while at the same time, still working on business.:)

I still have my Dam Good site, but I revamped it so there was no blog. No one really wanted to visit anyhow. I mean seriously, who wants to comment on a press blog? I mostly got SPAM.  The site is a simple but professional looking site, that labels activities coming up for the author as well as easy ways to buy from anywhere.

I’d rather really use my lovely blog for sharing books I love to read and review, for sharing my passions like Doctor Who (I love Doctor Who!) and to share a little about the publishing life too. After all running two blogs is ridiculous. It’s better to pair up everything, that way I don’t go insane.

You’ve seen a lot of authors self publish, but rarely when they start a press do they leave their own books out. That’s the kind of weird person I am. That’s the kind of publisher I want people to see.

Because in the end, publishing really doesn’t make you money. Does your book review blog make you rich? It’s just a passion to find the greatest manuscripts and help give them life and recognition. You might know what I’m talking about, if you think about it. Have you ever read a book and it was so good, all you wanted to do was jump on the computer and tell people about it?

It’s sort of like that, but even better, ’cause I help create the awesome.

Hmmm…Dam Good. I help create the awesome. I like the way that sounds!:)

So if your on Book Blogs, don’t expect much out of DGPublishing member now. That was my  husband’s member name, and he is rarely in action anymore. Moissanite Jewel is my personal account there. You’ll notice me as the weird chick with the First Doctor. I probably freak people out when I have a grumpy old man as my signature, yet I’m just a 30 year old fun lovin’ woman. Ha!

Also, I will be tweeting Not So Innocent stuff though @DGPublishing, and I will be working on Not So Innocent’s facebook with Dam Good news too because I update with it much more than the other.

Less places, less stress. Especially since I’ll still be taking medication well into February.

That feels like a long post, but it was an important one too. I also made a new symbol for the company. Something a little more me.

I did lose one author by our company going solo, but I’m okay with that and we ended on good terms. I even helped her self publish it without charging any kind of fee. It may not be a Dam Good book, but it’s still a damn good book.
