And remember, you can submit multiple entries, you can be anywhere in the world, and the winner will be chosen at random.





Onward and upward!

Fan Art Tuesday: Tour Magic

Well friends,





The White Hot Book Tour is officially over. It was exhilarating, and exhausting, and inspiring, and resplendent. One for the ages.





And it included some really lovely artwork from fans. Like this fun illustration of Gavin:









A fan gave this to us at Powell’s. I snapped a picture to share here.





“So CAPSLOCK, who exactly was this fan? Does she have any other work online?”





Ummmmmm, I forgot to ask. Ever true to form.





Any way, this is my segue into a reminder that we are holding a Nine Kings Fan Art Contest, and you should enter! Click through for details.





Also, I’m here to remind fans in the US and the UK that you still have two days to enter the Orbit Loot Giveaway, if you haven’t already. The ONLY WAY to get this prize–an exclusive Lightbringer hardcover box set–is to enter the giveaway. All you need is an email address!

Author Stories Interview with Hank Garner

Well friends, the tour is winding down, THE BURNING WHITE is being devoured by readers around the world, and Halloween is days away.





It really is the most wonderful time of the year.





Today we have an interview for the Author Stories Podcast, recorded last summer and released a few days ago (I know, I know, we’re a bit behind, but hey, it’s a small price to pay to meet 1,000 fans out on the road).





Here you go:
