Hello friends! Freaking out A LOT today but in a good way--today is my book baby's birthday! <img width="22" height="22" src="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/5e9922_3509e29d40d24b53b9ea6064d03de5c0.png_256"> <img width="22" height="22" src="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/5e9922_18442bd62d504016b4957df98d0e9947.png_256"> Lookit, "buy" link's up on Amazon and everything.
So come and celebrate with me. Several of you already have on Twitter and Facebook, thank you. But the party kicks into high gear tomorrow Friday, August 11 when S. Evan Townsend, "America’s unique speculative fiction voice", hosts me on his Speculative Fiction Cantina Internet radio author call-in show! (Check out his blog for details on past programs, link to tomorrow's program here.) I'll be one of two authors featured during the hour-long show, starting at 6:00 pm EDT (GMT -4:00 h), which includes a reading from my book. Listen in as I introduce my main character Pawly, gettin' her shred on like the talented Amy Sun Hee depicts here. Hope you all can make it!
The good time keep on rollin' through Sunday, August 13 when I'll be hanging out with Scratch and Ivic Wulfe on their South Afrifur Pawdcast! Because all the cool kids are doing it. <img width="22" height="22" src="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/5e9922_19da577ba0424632a53b6af3d5e36333.png_256"> Tune in live at (from their web site) 8pm CAT/CET (South Africa), 7pm GMT and from East Coast to West Coast America between 2pm EDT and 11am PDT.
If you can't make it, I know you'll be with me in spirit. You'll still be able to listen in after the fact if you like via a link on the host's respective sites after the show. I'll be sure to send them to you all right after I'm notified they've been posted.
Furry Migration is coming up August 25-27 in Minneapolis (whose theme "HEROES DIVIDED!" suits my book's so well.) So looking forward to hanging out with friends and supporters of the Furry Writers' Guild ! If you'll be in The Cities, please join us. Especially at our FWG-hosted writer's panels and our meet-n-greet. I'll be handing out full-color bookmarks featuring my characters to celebrate my book's release! You can get a sneak peek at them here and here. And should have copies on hand for sale as well.
Oh, and check out that book cover, willya? Kudos to Kit Jaspering for his fine work. I think it will look righteous hanging on someone's wall (especially mine!) in a nice frame. Details SOON how you can WIN a limited edition, gallery-quality 11x17 print of the cover art before you can buy one.
I'll wrap, my friends, by saying THANK YOU, all of you, for your much-appreciated support. <img width="22" height="22" src="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/5e9922_bbb9a23c29c9407f8a31e2fc45adead6.png_256"><img width="22" height="22" src="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/5e9922_bbb9a23c29c9407f8a31e2fc45adead6.png_256"><img width="22" height="22" src="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/5e9922_bbb9a23c29c9407f8a31e2fc45adead6.png_256"> Now back to work on Book 2 of my werecat family saga series. - MJE
