Six Days and Counting...

Tonight I'll be at Tattered Cover Lodo to celebrate the kick off of this year's RMFW Colorado Gold Conference. As one of this year's nominees for Writer of the Year, I'll be on the panel to answer audience questions about the exciting life of an author...that's a joke btw. Mostly being an author is isolation, work, self-doubt and a questionable future. But every once in awhile you open an email from Amazon and see something like this: your book offered front and center. One just hopes that buy link gets used over and over!

Are you looking for something in our Science Fiction & Fantasy books department? If so, you might be interested in these items.
Haunted (An Anna Strong, Vampire Novel)
by Jeanne C. Stein

Price: $7.99
I should mention that Haunted will not be available tonight. Unfortunately, the publisher would not let TC offer the book before the official drop date of Aug 28. There will be lots of other door prizes though, and you will be able to see my new hair color so that should be some consolation. If you are a friend on FB, you'll know all about how that came about! And next Tuesday, I'll be at the Highlands Ranch TC with plenty of copies of Haunted. So please join me.

I hope I get these bookmarks before the 28th. Aren't they great? I want to use them as door prizes.

Got them from an outfit called Etsy in the UK.
Okay, I guess that's all I've got for this week. My nerves are shot. Everyone asks me how I can be nervous about the debut of a book when I've done it so many times before. But it doesn't get easier. The future of any new book hinges on the past performance of your last.  So my personal plea is this--buy Haunted early and often!
You have my undying gratitude.
