I don’t know what to say

A few hours ago, I was informed that I was named a Breakout Author at ibooks.com. For the past couple of hours I've been trying to wrap my head around that, but can't. It's amazing, unbelievable and I'm pretty much stunned. I have absolutely no idea what to say or do at this moment. So, I'm going to use the manners that I was raised with and say thank you to Apple for taking this chance on me. I'd also like to thank Apple for its program which allows authors like me to publish our work. Thank you, Apple, you… Read More

More exciting news!

Since she probably won't post this herself, I again feel obligated to share this with all of you as well. More great news about R.L. on the Apple iBookstore! Check out the article here Feel free to keep those congratulations coming! Read More

An interview!

Ok, I'm being a bit sneaky, but since she doesn't seem to mention it herself, I decided it was my job to inform all of you of some very exciting news. Last week an interview was published with R.L. because she got a record-sales on Apple through Smashwords. So she was contacted by the founder of Smashwords asking for an interview. To all of you interested in reading, you can find it here. I've got this idea in my head that might be fun to do. What would… Read More

Cringing

I am spending the night applying Maura's edits to several of my books. I just did Perfection and yikes, that was painful. So many simple mistakes that got past me. I've uploaded the new edited version so it should be live at Apple within a few hours and in a day or two at Amazon and B&N. Sorry about the mistakes. I have no doubt that they were annoying. Next one up: A Reclusive… Read More

Because I like to share….and it’s summer time :)

This is a recipe for the yummiest lemonade you will ever have. This is so good that my kids call it "Mamamade" while they call all other lemonade simply lemonade. The key is to let it chill at least for six hours, but I prefer to do it overnight. To make it really delicious, add a couple of tablespoonful of slightly smashed strawberries, a slice of lemon and some ice to your glass of lemonade. So good..... Ingredients: 12 Cups of water 2 3/4 Cups of Sugar 2 1/4 Cups lemon juice Needed: 1 Gallon size… Read More

Hunk Hunt-June 22nd

Welcome to Hunk Hunt :) Every week we will run a little hunt at this site :) We used to run this at Facebook, but we ran into a few problems and a lot of people couldn't post. Well, Lieve has fixed that problem :) You can post and vote anonymously here. That means that you can participate without being teased :) If you'd rather just watch and vote, that's fine too. Some weeks I'll give out a prize to the winner. Enter the… Read More

Some website news

I normally don't do this and let R.L. create all her own posts, but since I've been making some changes on the website in the last couple of days, I thought it would be nice to give you all a heads up. I have disabled comments on pages, the reason I did this is simply because it keeps the website 'cleaner'. You can still comment on posts as much as you like, but it's easier for R.L. to keep track of everything if it's only the posts she has to answer. In time it will keep… Read More

An inspiring letter – Please read

This morning I was going through my email and I couldn't find what I was looking for so I checked out my junk mail and I found this letter by accident. When I read it I was stunned and couldn't imagine this being real. This woman's kindness shocked me to the core. For years she'd been helping save lives by donating blood, giving other people a chance to have warm, clean clothes and she didn't think that she was doing much. To the people that she helped, she is an angel and to me, she is an inspiration. Thank you, Natasha… Read More

Alright, you broke me :)

Here's an excerpt from Checkmate

Excerpt from Checkmate: A Neighbor From Hell Novel All Rights Reserved, 2012 R.L. Mathewson ©

"What are you doing?" Rory didn't bother looking at Connor while she said, "Working. What does it look like?" "It looks like you're getting in the way of my men." She stopped what she was doing and looked pointedly around the large roof where four of her brothers were checking for weak spots and marking the areas. "Exactly how am I getting in the way of your men if… Read More

Early Heads Up

Okay, I have this idea and I'm hoping that this is something that many of you can support. As you know I'm working on the next NFH book. I'm hoping to have it out during the summer, but here's what's going to happen. I'm going to hold off publishing it. Here's why. I am going to offer an advanced copy, (ebook) to those of you who help me out here. To everyone that backs me up and helps me out I will give you an advanced copy. I will be asking for a huge favor. I'm not joking. I know it's… Read More
