Katie Sullivan, the younger (by far) half of the D/A Dialogues is crowdfunding her new novel, Changelings: Into the Mist. Follow through and give her launch a hand. I was a beta reader for Changelings and I am really looking forward to reading it again!
So, I did something I never thought I would be bold enough to do: launch a crowdfunding campaign.There’s even a contribution on it (Thank you, Christopher – and no, this is not the official thank-you).
Through the campaign, you can PRE-ORDER your very own copy of Changelings, and even have it signed or personally inscribed by yours truely (and if you ask nice, I’ll even have D sign it!). There are also a lot of great perks to be had. I think I had the most fun looking for those!
All of this is an effort to expand the distribution for Changelings. I’ve pushed myself to become more active in my local community, and I want to be able to share this with them – with the libraries I love so dearly, with the bookstores and coffee shops – and distribution…

The sweet aroma of warm cinnamon coffee cake circled the kitchen, enveloping the cousins as they sat in their usual spots around the table. Randy was pouring coffee into plain white stoneware mugs.

Mary was passing around slices of the coffee cake. Maggie was knitting, and Melissa was leafing through the book they would discuss that morning. She handed the paperback to Randy, and he grinned as he placed it beside his mug. (more…)

Of course, you could do as I did and buy the book and then you wouldn’t need to enter the contest. In fact, if you buy the book now, you’ll probably get it before the contest closes on November 5. You might even read it before the contest closes. And then you will be very very glad that you went ahead and bought the book :)Goodreads Book Giveaway

Time is running out to participate in the Legends of Windemere Thunderclap campaign. It doesn’t cost a cent to participate. More importantly, you would be helping the one and only Charles Yallowitz, author of the high fantasy series Legends of Windemere! Go to Charles’s blog and click on that cute Capybara!
Just a few more days for the Legends of Windemere Thunderclap campaign and I’ve been stuck at 74 for days. I have until Saturday to get 26 more volunteers to make this a success. I’ve tried tweets, Facebook posts, and WordPress posts. For now, I’m doing this post and then one on Friday night. After that, I’ll talk about my experience with this and give my Pro/Con opinion. (At least after I’ve eaten since this campaign ends on Yom Kippur, Jewish Day of Fasting.)

The talented and versatile S. K. Nicholls (of Red Clay and Roses fame) has tagged me to participate in the Sisters in Crime Blog Hop. Click here to see what Susan has to say about Sisters in Crime (SinC). She’s pretty much convinced me that I should join this organization. And why is that, you may ask? Well, I know I tend to not join organizations because, to paraphrase Groucho Marx, I don’t like to belong to any club that would accept me as a member. And yet …. (more…)
