In print

I love ebooks -- they're so convenient. I can read a few pages on my phone whenever I grab a spare minute or two, wherever I happen to be.

But there's still something about a physical book, isn't there?

So I'm thrilled to have a print edition of The Opposite of Magic out. All thanks due to my husband, who badgered me in a loving fashion to do it and then put a lot of time into helping it come to pass.

To celebrate, I'm trying out a three-book giveaway on Goodreads.

Goodreads thinks there's something about physical books, too. No ebooks allowed in giveaways.

And when I handed my librarian mother a proof version of the novel, she stared at it in something like wonder. My daughter has a book. I didn't get quite the same reaction when the ebook went up for sale last fall. She was excited -- my God, she'd been hearing about it and reading various versions of it for years, poor woman -- but ... there's just something about a printed book.
