Rob Thurman Offline Due to Midwest Tornadoes
Tornadoes Can't Keep a Valkyrie Down!
Hello Reavers,
Rob's life has been touched by yet another tragedy – the Indiana tornadoes.
Thank everything in the Universe, Rob, her mother and her house were left standing, but the "town proper" – her entire town – was annihilated by this thing. This is one of those cases where living so far out in the country [with the cursed dialup internet connection] was more of a blessing than a curse. Although, she did tell me a house a few miles down the road from her did lose its roof. She was extremely lucky in this whole situation. I shudder to think of what may have happened had she lived "in town." Many people are dead and she reported in to me that it's just unreal – absolutely horrifying. Nobody can get anywhere because of all the debris, and of course, there have been power and water issues galore.
She was barely able to message me on her blackberry to tell me all of this, but I'm so grateful that she could, because I was worried sick about her, and I'm sure many of you have been too.
Although she is still standing, I'm sure it is shocking and awful to watch this happen to your own city. So please, keep her in your thoughts, prayers, whatever it is you do to wish another person strength, courage and healing.
She may not be online next week to celebrate her own release with us. 
But Reavers, let's keep this party going and give her one hell of a release. I want to see Doubletake shoot to the top of the bestseller lists. Rob deserves it, The Leandros Brothers deserve it… so whatever you can do right along with me to make that happen, let's do this thing!
To end on a positive note: we will have a new Cal TV commercial to show you on Tuesday, and a super fun part three to the contests [starting on D-Day - 03.06]!
The song contest has been SO amazing, I'm going to begin posting polls next week, so we can vote on our favorite song in the cases where multiple songs by a particular band have been suggested, and it's too hard to choose. I will also be posting a playlist on Rob's YouTube Channel with as many videos as possible from all the suggestions.
SO! Keep the party going with me so that when our Guest of Honor can arrive, she'll be happy and thrilled to see that The Reaver Army has stood by her side and kept her strong while once again, life tried to knock our Dear Rob Thurman down.
With Love and Appreciation,
-Jayda

D-Day Contest #1: The Soundtrack to DOUBLETAKE
[This is going to be a blast!]
D-Day is 03.06.12
If you could program your "dream soundtrack" to a Cal Leandros movie, what kinds of songs would you want to hear?
Submit your song titles here in the comments, or on Twitter or Rob's Facebook page. Please include the song title and band name. If you have anything to say about why it makes you think of the books, or maybe which character's theme song you imagine it belonging to, even better.
Jayda will post updates that share the songs either through videos, lyrics or full [LEGAL] audio streams from now through the end of the contest period. Rob and I will pick our ten favorites, create an iMix and then "gift" that iMix to three lucky winners in the final prize drawing.
If you use Twitter, please remember to include @Rob_Thurman. If you have room for hash tags, please include the name of the band you submitted, plus #Doubletake and #CalLeandros. We'll be sure to re-tweet your entries if you submit song ideas via The Twitter.
Also, on Facebook, the more "likes" a certain song gets, the more "likely" that song will wind up on the final soundtrack!
Now then, let's get to rocking for D-Day!

Okay, that was my #TooMuchJavaGirl way of introducing CONTEST-CONTEST-CONTESTS!
You ready? I know I am [and I don't even qualify to win]!

Physical Prize Drawing
We're giving away ten autographed copies of Rob's books [winner's choice, anthologies not included]
Six issues of the February/March Gothic Beauty Magazine and March Rue Morgue Magazine [content details yet to be released]
One art print of DOUBLETAKE from fantasy and book cover artist Chris McGrath
