Updates and Edits and Stories, Oh My!
Hi again! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season.
Just a few quick updates for anyone who's missed them on my blog (www.disragardtheprologue.com), where I share them regularly:
-
The Binding
My short story The Binding (Bound prequel) is now available free through Amazon.com, Nook, iBooks, and Kobo. It will be exclusive to Amazon for a few months starting in February, so be sure to grab a copy elsewhere before then if you need to.
We're still trying to get international Amazon sites to make it free, but it's a slow process. Feel free to report the lower price elsewhere if you'd like to!
-
Torn
After a few unexpected delays, I have edits back and am hard at work making this the best book I possibly can for all of you. I'm still aiming for a March release, with pre-orders in February, but quality always comes before speed. You deserve the best. That means edits by my editor (done), me (in progress), and a second editor/proofreader (scheduled) before I can start the publication process.
I will announce a release date here, via newsletter, and on my blog as soon as I can do so with confidence.
Also, watch for news about the release party on Facebook!

Other News
Many thanks to everyone who has read, reviewed, and spread the word about Bound! You're amazing, and I'm so thankful for all of you.

Okay. I'm heading back to Ye Olde Editing Cave. See you soon!

Prologue (Torn) Now Available!
Hi, everyone!
I've posted the prologue for Torn on my blog, Disregard the Prologue.
That's... okay, that's a little confusing.
Anyway, the prologue is there, if you'd like a sneak peek at what's headed your way on the 31st. :)

One Year Celebration (and giveaway!)
Hey, everyone!
Yesterday was the one-year anniversary of Bound's publication. Its first book-birthday, if you prefer that. It's been a crazy year, and an amazing one thanks to fantastic readers who have enjoyed the book and recommended it through reviews, blogs, and word-of-mouth.
To thank readers, I'm doing a giveaway this week! A signed paperback (of Bound or Torn, or a CD audiobook of Bound if you prefer that), plus some other series-related goodies.
For details and the link to the rafflecopter entry form, see this post on my blog:

Good luck!
