NIGHTSHADE debuts at Barbour

Check it out, y’all. NIGHTSHADE, book 1 of the Discarded Heroes, has made its debut appearance–on the Barbour Publishing website. (if hte link doesn’t work, cut/paste this: http://www.barbourbooks.com/%28S%28tzasczufy4hiv255sllqan45%29%29/product/Nightshade,7952.aspx?Tab=Books ) I love the copy they have for Max. Of course, all this “attention” has me quite antsy to see what Barbour’s amazing design team comes up with for the cover. Back in late September, I received the design set instructions that the team had signed off on. A few of the details will be the Nightshade team logo (see image below–designed by long-time family friend Andrew Kendall), Max in full dress (Navy), and Sydney (his wife) in the background. Possibly a burning village or jungle scenery. ACK! I shouldn’t be thinking …

Okay, yep, I’m jumping up and down, and dancing! My book, DEAD RECKONING, is up on Amazon now. I’m soooo excited. This really made it feel real (wonder how many “this made it feel real” it will take to make this REAL to me LOL). So…you can PRE-order it now at Cokesbury (40% off!), Amazon, and CBD.com!! Of course, we’ll have a big push on the March 1, 2010 release date to see if we can’t skyrocket through the ranks. BookPreview is doing my trailer, and I am anxiously awaiting that. Stay tuned so I can share it with you when they’re finished. You *have* seen some of their trailers, right? I think they’re top-notch.******************************************************** In other writing business, I’m …

I am beyond delighted to announce that my fabulous agent, Steve Laube, has negotiated a 4-book contract for the Discarded Heroes series with Becky Germany at Barbour Publishing!! I am so honored that Barbour is allowing this series to come to life. It’s a departure from what they’ve been publishing, and I’m thrilled to join the ranks as one of their authors! They’ve championed freedom, survived the cruelties of war, and now these heroes return home…wounded and discarded. Each of the Discarded Heroes books is a full-length (100k), action-packed story. The first book NIGHTSHADE will release July 2010, with subsequent titles DIGITALIS, WOLFSBANE, and FIRETHORN releasing every six months thereafter. (and yes…this is the book that big brother John Olson …
