Lisa Voisin has sold her debut paranormal romance, The Watcher, to Inkspell Publishing. Her release date is September 7th, 2012.

Natashia Deon, the heart and soul of the Dirty Laundry Lit reading series, has learned that the PEN Center USA is going to fund the program for a second year. Here’s the latest video from Dirty Laundry.
