Later this month, I’ll be reading an excerpt at a University of Louisville release event for my novel, The Life and Death (but mostly the death) of Erica Flynn. I have a question, therefore, for those of you who have read it or have started reading it – what 2-4 page passage from the book grabbed you the most + had the least significant spoilers? Leave a comment with the page numbers!
Erica Flynn
The Life and Death (but mostly the death) of Erica Flynn
My novel, The Life and Death (but mostly the death) of Erica Flynn is now available through Amazon! Print copies are $14.99, Kindle edition only $2.99. The cover art is the work of Zakary Kendall, who also happens to be my partner in crime boyfriend. The cover design is by T. Lee Harris of 3 Fates Press. I am so thrilled with the way the book looks – many thanks to you both for that!
On Saturday, March 1, I will be attending Books N Brews in Nashville, Indiana, as one of the 3 Fates Press authors. Small press books at a microbrewery? Sounds like my idea of a good weekend! For more details about the event, click here. I will have copies of Erica Flynn there for sale!
Words cannot express how excited I am that this book is finally out in the world. I’ve loved these characters for many years now, and it’s thrilling to finally share them with readers! Thanks to all my friends, colleagues, and professors, who have spread the word, bought the book, liked the links, and given me props for this book release. It’s a beautiful thing, y’all. Thank you.
Progress for Erica
It’s definitely past time to do an update here! Happily, I have news to post. My novel, The Life and Death (But Mostly the Death) of Erica Flynn, has changed hands – but is now back on track to publication thanks to Three Fates Press. I signed the contract last week, and by this time next year, the book will be released! I’m excited to be moving forward with it, and excited to be working with my new publisher, too. I’ll add news here as things progress, of course, and attempt to get back to updating on a regular basis, also.
School is keeping me busy this semester (what’s new?) and with NaNoWriMo coming up, I’m increasingly jealous of everyone I know who is managing to find the time to participate. I’m writing roughly 7,500 words per week of essays, which adds up to 30,000 words in one month – can I count THAT toward NaNoWriMo???! I want to write the draft of my Erica Flynn spinoff (same Underworld, different dead people), but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, I have to concentrate on schoolwork. Blah!
In the meantime, however, I can probably manage to use Thanksgiving Break and the first part of Winter Break to write a steampunk story for an anthology for Three Fates Press, which I’m also looking forward to. I mean, what’s more fun than writing about a sociopathic automaton?
