And the Goodreads Giveaway Begins!

The game's afoot, and throughout the month of April, Goodreads members can enter to win one of ten advance reader copies of my novel In Search of the Magic Theater.

Through the voices of two women with overlapping lives but diverging paths, Karla Huebner explores the tension between control and surrender, reason and ecstasy, dreaming and choosing. This engaging, erudite, yet accessible novel takes us on a cultural journey spanning millennia, from Greek mythology to Jimi Hendrix, from Elizabethan lyric poetry to performance art, revealing along the way the joy of self-discovery. –Julie Wittes Schlack, author of This All-at-Onceness and Burning and Dodging

Still Available for Review on NetGalley!

Authors in the age of social media often find outselves feeling a little like the proverbial broken record as we keep mentioning our books. But it isn't (usually) because we're vain or can't think about anything else. In today's hyper-saturated publishing world, where far more books than ever before are published, it's simply necessary for us to do everything we can think of to bring our books to the attention of potential readers. Our publishers do some of that work (if we're lucky), but they generally have quite a few books to publicize all at once.

And so, once again, let me point out that my novel In Search of the Magic Theater--a tale of music, theater, generational tensions, strong women, and a bit of romance--is currently available for pre-publication review on NetGalley. Reviews that appear prior to publication, whether in Publisher's Weekly, Kirkus, NetGalley, Goodreads, or elsewhere, help readers learn about books they may be interested in, which encourages pre-orders, which encourages more support from publishers.

If you read and review via NetGalley, this post is for you!
