First Launch in the WORLD!
I'm allowed to be a little chuffed, here. After all, http://www.bakkaphoenixbooks.com is officially the oldest sf/f bookstore in the world. It's also a fabulous place, with great staff who are supportive of all authors. Many of them ARE authors, and darned fine ones at that.
This Saturday, March 9th, from 3-6 pm, I'll be sitting behind stacks of A TURN OF LIGHT, watching it head home in the hands of (hopefully) eager readers, soon to be deep in Marrowdell. There'll be TOAD cookies (two batches), Signed commemorative MAPS (free with the first 50 books bought at the store), and a reading by yours truly (not too long, somewhat scary, and fun).
A launch for a new book marks that shift between potential and reality. I've waited a very long time to see this one happen. That the first time, in this world (or any other) will be at Bakka Phoenix Books? Truly a joy. See you there!

One More Day
Till A Turn of Light
So what does an author do?
Plan, plot, and prepare!
Yes, for a PARTY! Tomorrow marks the birth of a new book -- of itself worth celebrating.
When it's a book like this?
Trust me, our party shall be EPIC!
I hope you'll help me celebrate by sharing photos of your copies of TURN. To know it's in the hands of readers is the very best party of all.

three toads till TURN!
And it's time for me to remind you that if you'd like those advance installments from http://www.czerneda.com of A TURN OF LIGHT, with my little author notes, you will need to grab them by the evening of March the 4th. They will disappear.
Cheers!

Last day of last month without TURN!
WHEE!!!
I refuse not to be excited about this. Writing is one of those professions where if you forget to reward your own efforts with an appropriate hurrah or two (or ten), you quickly lose sight of why this is such a great thing to be doing.
HURRAH!!!! HURRAH!!!!
5 toads till A Turn of Light

There's one more copy up for grabs ...
Yes, there is. http://www.bakkaphoenixbooks.com will run one last contest -- for the VERY LAST ARC! of A TURN OF LIGHT -- Tuesday the 26th, one week before the book is released in stores/online.
I'll give you a hint about the trivia question that you'll have to be first to answer correctly...
It's about my past work. (Which is all described at http://www.czerneda.com!)
Good luck!
