NIGHT SHIFT officially released!
Yep, that’s right. Night Shift, book one in the Jill Kismet series, is officially released today! (Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Powell’s) I am so very, very excited to announce Jill’s official debut.
Here’s the blurb:
Not everyone can take on the things that go bump in the night.
Not everyone tries.
But Jill Kismet is not just anyone.
She’s a Hunter, trained by the best - and in over her head.
Welcome to the night shift…
I don’t think it’s possible to put into words how excited I am.
Also debuting officially today is the Hotter Than Hell anthology, edited by Kim Harrison and chock-full of great stories by luminaries like Keri Arthur, Marjorie Liu, and L.A. Banks. Why, Yours Truly even has a little story in there too, titled Brother’s Keeper and starring your favorite Nichtvren, Selene and Nikolai. Those of you who like that dynamic duo, just hold on a little longer. I’ve got great news to announce about them, but I just can’t do it yet.
Last but not least, you guys are way, way smarter than I am. Yesterday’s Weirdsville post is indeed the result of a viral marketing campaign for Charlaine Harris’s Sookie Stackhouse books–or more precisely, the HBO series made of those books. I got lots and lots of comments and emails telling me so.
I initially did think it might be my sister’s nutty stalker, so I didn’t spend the effort on it I might otherwise have. I feel like an idiot–it was the Teen who found out exactly what it was for me, and only because I finally mentioned to him the sort of strange stuff I’ve been getting in the mail. (It says something for the weirdness quotient in our household that I’ll just put mail like that in a Ziploc and file it somewhere with a shrug and a raised eyebrow, doesn’t it.)
Still, my dears, it’s a shame to let a good viral go to waste, and I was delighted by this one (once I actually figured it out.) So, there may be more Weirdsville in the future. *rubs hands together with evil glee* The Teen and his friend Squeaker are ALL OVER the idea.
Though it IS weird, the cats suddenly wanting to be in at night. Really weird…
