With The Part About the Dragon Was (Mostly) True dropping in just over a week, I'm delighted to announce that you can enjoy some holiday shenanigans with Heloise in You Can't Hide From Chriskahzaa.

You can get the story here: https://www.seangibsonauthor.com/shop

All proceeds go to Impact Justice (impactjustice.org), so feel good about your purchase even as you feel bad about the content!

Ooh, Syl bringing in the big guns...solid choice to call in Adolin there.

Boy, did that scratch an itch.

And now we get Satan-worshipping ancestors?? This book is a kitchen sink of delight.

Kaladin and Lirin would totally have awkward thanksgivings.

Happy Thanksgiving, my dear GR friends! I'm especially grateful for all of your support in trying to put out a book in the midst of the hellscape that is 2020.

If you are bored over Turkey Day, The Part About the Dragon Was (Mostly) True is still up on NetGalley for a few more days: https://www.netgalley.com/catalog/boo...

Shenanigans will abound as we close in on the 12/15 release! And tomfoolery.

Ah, finally...our body count is rising. And drunk Watson!

If you are really, REALLY bored--I mean, like, epically bored, to the point where you're just flicking your uvula with your tongue while you think about which shade of yellow is your favorite--you can watch me and a couple of other fantasy authors talk about mixing comedy with fantasy (almost as good as mixing Scotch with chocolate milk):

(I'm very sorry you're that bored.)

At my current pace, this will only take my like 4,829 days to read. On the plus side, it's possible the world will make slightly more sense by the time I get done.

If you're REALLY bored today, join me and fellow comic fantasy authors Sarah Sover and Justin Alcala for a virtual panel discussion on putting the funny in fantasy at 5:30 PM Eastern time today on the Parliament House Books Twitch channel: https://m.twitch.tv/parliamentbooks/p...

It would be delightful to see you all there as we prep for the release of The Part About the Dragon Was (Mostly) True!

Well, here we go. If you don't hear from me soon, just assume I've been physically crushed by this book and am lying helpless on the floor. Please send help if that's the case, or, if you're so inclined, just come point and laugh at me as I weakly implore to remove the 50-pound weight from atop my chest.

For those of you on NetGalley who need a read on the lighter/more absurd side: The Part About the Dragon Was (Mostly) True is up for another couple of weeks--GET IT BEFORE THE UNWASHED MASSES (and even before the washed masses): https://www.netgalley.com/catalog/boo...

This is an absolute delight thus far. And so seasonally apropos.

This is leventy-billion percent the book I need right now and I am here for it.

Thus far this is...okay. A little underwhelming and only occasionally borderline offensive. Generally well-meaning, though, even if a bit cartoonish.

So, it's basically like talking to me.

NetGalley friends: if you need a laugh after suffering through the longest millennium ever...wait, what? This week has only actually been a week long? Come on--that's ridiculous. It's been at least thousands of years.

Anyway: if you need a laugh*, The Part About the Dragon Was (Mostly) True is up on NetGalley: https://www.netgalley.com/catalog/boo...

*Laughs may actually be groans. YMMV.

Totally not the point of this story, but now I want to be a stage magician.

Again.

This is such a weird, dark era of X-Men, yet it's the one I grew up on, so remains a formative perspective on what I look for in X-Men. It's odd.

Needed a little literary pallet cleanser. This will do nicely.

Ten minutes of flipping through this book and I've already drooled my way through three shirts.

OTIK'S SPICED POTATOES. Yes, please and thank you.

YOUR DAY JUST WENT FROM HORRIFIC TO JUST SORTA CRAPPY!

My benevolent publisher has granted me license to share with a few of my favorite Goodreads peeps a link to their super secret access form to get an eARC of The Part About the Dragon Was (Mostly) True.

I know you're sweating with joyfulness. You want in? First 3 people who send me a message asking for it will get the link.

Romantic plot twist!

Enter Artur, that sexy man beast.

Spider-Man is such comfort food for me. For obvious reasons, I've read a fecal ton of Spidey in 2020.

What's your comfort food reading material?

Oh, snap. Stuff is about to go DOWN.

This is really not going well, is it, Adam?

I can already tell this book is going to be a delight.

Not even mildly shameless self-promotion alert for my Kindle-reading friends: My publisher has lost its mind--for Amazon Prime Day, you can preorder The Part About the Dragon Was (Mostly) True for an absurd $1.99 starting RIGHT NOW through 10/14.

YOU CAN'T EVEN GET ONE-CENT 200 GUMBALLS FOR THAT AMOUNT OF MONEY.

Tell your friends, or your enemies, who love comic fantasy, Terry Pratchett, Monty Python, etc.
