Celebrate My Idiocy and W*n a Book, Any Book

Leave a comment today and win your choice of book. Any book. You can choose from this week's Reader's  Choice list, or you can choose something totally different from your personal wish list. If you entered Reader's Choice already, enter again here....because I lost your earlier comments. Yikes!

I’m up today at DarkFaerie Tales , or rather Jean Lafitte is…with a little help from DJ? They’re talking about some of the most deadly destinations in New Orleans these days, and there are give...<![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 9]>

Elysian Fields Preview, and Bloggers Wanted (and Ideas!)

We're beginning the countdown to the start of the Elysian Fields tour! The book will be released on August 13, and there will be tour stops galore, all with different content. There will be an amazing tour grand prize, and some little prizes along the way to keep it interesting.

I'm also trying something a little different this time, as regular readers of this blog will know: flash fiction set in the Sentinels world.

If you're a book blogger and would like to have an original piece of flash fic...

Around the Blogosphere, Friday Edition

Sorry for the quick update today. Too much work, too little time, as usual.

But I do have an interview over at The Avid Reader today (as Susannah), with a giveaway for a commenter, so head on over! (And scroll, scroll, scroll to get past the promo stuff to find the actual interview.)

Also, thanks to Lee over at She Wolf Reads for featuring the Sentinels books today!

In the meantime, there are two HUGE Reader's Choice contests still going on this week--ending Saturday at midnight local time (CDT)...

It's a Beautiful Thing on the Fourth

Happy 4th of July to all of you in the U.S. today! It's a rainy, dark day in my corner of the universe, which makes me perversely happy. The perfect kind of day to burrow in and read and write.

But in a nod to the holiday, I'll offer up a song from one of my favorite singer/songwriters, Slaid Cleaves. More people really do need to know about this guy! This song, "Beautiful Thing," is an indictment of my country's passivity and naivete, yet also a celebration that at heart we are a kind and gen...

New Releases June 22-28 and Readers Choice C*ntest


This week is really last week. While you're pondering that conundrum, we have about 25 new releases that should have been listed last week had we run a Reader's Choice contest. On Wednesday, we'll have this week's GINORMOUS list. I mean it. Ginormous. So enjoy this relatively quiet list before we hit the big one.
Now...what do you want to read this week? As always, leave a comment telling me the book you’d most like to win, and maybe random.org will make your wishes come true. You...<![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 9]>
