Official Launch Date and Launch Event Schedule

The books have arrived! Which basically means one big thing- It's book launch time! Thunderbirds are go! Memory's Wake will be officially launched this Saturday the 16th (Aussie time, which means more like the 15th for some of you!) The most exciting part of the whole thing is to finally be sharing my story with you all. The excitement is now overtaking the fear, and I'm feeling very positive about the whole thing (my first 5 star review from an unaffiliated book reviewer has helped a lot! http://seeingnight.blogspot.com/2011/...). Even the two proof copies I had thought missing in the mail finally showed up. Everything is right and ready to go. And I've got a whole bunch of fun things planned for a week long launch promotion! Starting, of course, with making the book available through all sales channels, the book will be available at a reduced price during launch week, then return to it's standard pricing after the 23rd. I'm going to post a video or two of me talking about the book and showing what the paperback and hardcover books look like in real life. AWESOME competitions! I've been hoarding stockpiles of Memory's Wake merch, putting together some brilliant prize packs. If my book launch goes well, I'll also be giving away an Amazon Kindle eReader at the end of the week! More art from the book to be released. Want a t-shirt just like Memory's? The Memory's Wake merchandise store will be unveiled. A free downloads gallery added to the site. To be more specific, here is the new, complete schedule- Saturday 16th – Make Memory's Wake available and announce competitions Sunday 17th – Let's write an FAQ- Questions. Monday 18th – Ebook, Paperback, or Hardcover? Version comparison Tuesday 19th – Video of me talking about the story Wednesday 20th – Let's write an FAQ- Answers Thursday 21st – Artwork release Friday 22nd – Free Downloads (Wallpapers, etc) Saturday 23rd – Launch update, competition update Sunday 24th – 1st draft vs final draft comparison Monday 25th – Memory's Wake Merchandise store reveal Tuesday 26th – Unused and Old art reveal Wednesday 27th – My favourite Memory's Wake Quotes Thursday 28th – A map of Avall Friday 29th – Launch wrap up Saturday 30th- Competition drawings It's a shame champagne is off the menu at the moment  I hope you'll all still come and party with me for the Memory's Wake Book Launch Week! How else should we celebrate?
