Bits and pieces

I'm still working on revisions for My Soul To Steal, and I'm at the point in the process when I really wish I could start dropping some mini-excerpts online. But I can't, because that would spoil things from My Soul To Keep. So...hurry up, June 1!

Other random things:

• I'm having a rather domestically challenged week. Yesterday I splattered bleach all over a brand new shirt. And my hot water heater is broken, so I've had cold showers two days in a row. Raise your hand if you hate cold showers. *waves hand in the air*


• I'm behind on mailing stuff. That's because I'm perpetually behind on everything. But it shouldn't be long if I still owe you something. Though...if it's been more than a month, please send me a reminder of what I owe you, and what contest you won it in.


• I discovered via the internet that My Soul To Keep is getting a simultaneous release in the US and Australia. (With a very slightly different cover. Same art, different crop.)


• And in case you haven't heard, the Aussies are going to get My Soul To Steal (Soul Screamers 4) a full month earlier than those of us in the US. They'll get it December 1, 2010, while it won't be out in the US until Jan 1, 2011. So...does that mean I'll actually have 5 full length releases in 2010?


• Amazon.com (I know, I know) has updated it's Author Central program, and now I'm allowed to suggest edits to product information. So I suggested that they label all my books with the series name and book number. And so far, about half of those suggestions have already been implemented! So if you check out my author page on Amazon, you'll notice that most of the books are now properly labeled as Soul Screamers 1, or Shifters 5, etc...


• And last of all, I kind of love this Pamela Palmer cover, and not just because it has my cover quote on it. Though that helps. ;-) How cool is the monochrome and the black cat?!

I haven't read this one yet, but I love the look of the cover!
