buying The Magician's Lie paperback online
We've had some stock hiccups during the first week of The Magician's Lie paperback availability -- booo! The good news is, they're all being fixed, so you should soon be able to order your copy of TML in paperback via Amazon and Target.
The even better news is, you can order it right now from Powell's and it'll be on its way to you in a day or two.
Also, some of the stock issues are caused by the fact that lots of people are buying the book, and believe me, that's never bad!
And buying in person at your local independent bookstore, Target, or Barnes & Noble is never a bad idea either.
Thanks for your patience! Just want to make sure readers can get their hands on this book in whatever way at whatever speed -- if you want a book, you should have it! Enjoy.

great day on Great Day
So I was on morning TV. And it was terrifying. But I think the finished product worked out pretty well. Right now it's near the top of this page -- no telling how long it'll last, so if you want to watch, watch soon!

presto! a paperback! and Target news
THE MAGICIAN'S LIE is out in paperback today! And not only can you get it at fine independent bookstores, B&N and online, but it's the Target Book Club Pick for October! I'm going to drive around eastern Iowa signing books at Target stores to celebrate.
Coincidentally, McDonald's starts serving breakfast all day TODAY. Coincidence? I don't know, but if I get hungry between Targets, I'm stopping for a sausage biscuit.
Happy paperbacking!

Best news: BESTSELLER!
Incredible news! THE MAGICIAN'S LIE has hit the bestseller lists! As of October 1, my little book is a USA Today bestseller. (No, I don't get my own pie chart out of it. Wouldn't that be great?)
Definitely popping the champagne! Hooray!
And here's a piece on Radio Iowa about it, along with a list of the five cities in Iowa I'm hitting on my tour, which starts on Monday, October 5. Prepare yourselves, Hawkeyes, here I come!

Two months! Also, let's connect...
Yes, the 13th of the month has taken on a new significance for me -- it's the book birthday of THE MAGICIAN'S LIE. In this case, the book's been out on shelves for two months. And it's been a delightful, amazing, unbelievable ride.
I'm here on the blog from time to time, but if you want to connect with me more regularly, social media is the way to go: here's where to find me on Twitter or Facebook.
