Ghost Story
I can’t seem to write a series — bam, bam, bam — and then move on to the next.
I know the story for the fourth Tethers book: The Goblin King (working title). It’s tons of fun, starring everybody’s favorites, Max and Cissa.
But before that silly couple can even think of looking at each other that way, the dark side of their story will be exposed in War of the Wyrds.
Meanwhile, a romantic suspense-ish ghost story moved in and took up residence in my imagination and won’t let go. I don’t believe in muses, but I think I might have one.

The Bride and the Release Day Diva
Yesterday was the release party at Facebook for Bride of Fae . It was so much fun – and exhausting – and I didn’t do any of the work!
Jessi Gibson is the Diva , and yesterday’s successful event is all — ALL — due to her hard work and fantastic organizational skills. I thought other independent author/publishers might be interested in the process, hence this post.
About a month ago, I booked the day with Jessi. I recommend booking at least a few weeks in advance for two reasons — time to prepare and time to promote.
You’ll prepare for the event by inviting your Facebook friends and lining up your prizes. Jessi has great ideas, so don’t worry if you’re not sure what you want to give away. She’s also connected with Promotional Book Tours a wonderful group of book bloggers who are hilarious and enthusiastic about all things books.
For the Bride event prizes we had a mix of books, ebooks, sparkly makeup in keeping with the book’s fairy theme, some gift cards, a DVD, and a month’s subscription to Netflix. I think the most popular prize was the custom book marker designed by Christine at TheBookSwagShop .
The Diva lines up the games, keeps track of the winners, and collects the information necessary to deliver the prizes. On the day of the event, I didn’t have to do anything. I was free to comment and play along. You can join in the judging or not. And if you have to leave early (as I did) it’s not a problem.
You can look at all the posts here to get an idea of how the day progressed. There are a lot of posts – it lasted eight hours! Personally, I don’t know how she does it. The party was fun, but there was a lot of information to keep track of. I think four hours is probably plenty, but with eight hours you have a greater likelihood the party will be going on outside readers’ work time.
Would I do it again? Definitely. It was a way to talk about my book without talking about my book and at the same time do something fun for the readers who, trust me, really know how to have a good time!

Team Rigel – the street team of L.K. Rigel
The fabulous MK Mamakitty has talked me into forming a Street Team.
Eek! It’s in the nascent stages. As in I just created the group at Facebook.
Apparently a street team is like a 21st century fan club. Just the thought of it is pushing my “unworthy” buttons … but the angel on the other shoulder says, “Hey! This could be a blast!”
Here is the link, if you’d like to join http://www.facebook.com/groups/292424834188566/
