We've firmed up the city for the launch party—one of my all time favorites—New Orleans! What better place to escape the winter blues?
This is the plan:
Shadowfever goes on sale Tuesday, January 18th. Serendipitously, Monday, the 17th is MLK day, a holiday for many of you, which makes it perfect for a long weekend getaway. Come in early and party through the weekend!
The launch party will be held at a local hotel on Monday evening, hosted by a local NOLA bookstore. We plan to stay in that hotel all weekend--hotel to be announced shortly.
The launch will kick off with a reading from
Shadowfever, followed by a book signing, and here's the fun part—the event won't conclude until Tuesday afternoon—with a Q&A where I will address any niggling questions that remain.
There may also be a few special guests.
We need to get an idea how many people plan to attend in order to choose the right size venue. I prefer an intimate setting, but I don't want to preclude anyone attending due to space limitations. We also need to make sure we have a large enough area to meet and talk.
The event will be free of charge with the purchase of
Shadowfever through the hosting bookstore, and companion tickets will be available for a nominal fee.
So, who's in for a long weekend in NOLA, a good book and a great party? Weigh in here, at
FB or my
message board!

2. Publish on Friday and people have a 3 day weekend to read it! (makes more sense to me and maybe everyone else who will not be in NO)
