Is that her real name?
Yes. That really is my real name. It is not a nom de plume or de guerre. My young adult books are published under “Lili St. Crow” to make it abundantly clear that they are intended for a different audience.
Does she really work in a bookstore?
Yes. I volunteer at Cover to Cover Books in downtown Vancouver. However, my schedule is fluid, and my schedule information will not be given out over the phone, in person, or by email. EVER.
How do I contact Lili?
I sent Lili an email. Why didn’t she reply?
Check the Contact page. If I answered every email I would literally do nothing BUT answer email all day. I’m very sorry, but I just can’t. Please know that I do read each and every email or letter I get, and I thank you for your time and trouble. It’s just that I can either answer email or write books. I’m sure we all rather I write the books.
Will Lili read my book/ short story/ fanfic/ screenplay?
Unfortunately my time is at a premium and I don’t offer editing or critique services anymore. All the writing advice I can offer you may be found in my weblog or Livejournal.
Where do I find Lili’s books?
The best place to find a complete list of in-print Saintcrow books is under my Amazon listing or my wiki bibliography. You can also check out the Books page. Clicking on a book cover on this site will generally take you to either a sample of the book or a listing for an online bookseller. You could also contact Cover to Cover Books and ask them whether they have the book in stock. (If you get the book from them, there’s a very good chance I can sign it for you before it goes out.)
See? Lots of choices.
When will the next Watcher book be available?
At this time, there are no more Watcher books planned.
When will the next Valentine book be available?
The fifth and final Valentine book, To Hell And Back, was released in January of 2008. A short story featuring Liana Spocarelli (with a cameo by Dante Valentine) was released in the Mammoth Book of Vampire Romance. There are no more Valentine books planned at this time–all my energy is going into the Jill Kismet and Strange Angels series, as well as several short stories.
Are there more Society books?
There are two more Society books in my head but not, as yet, written. To write them I would have to kill Zeke, and I don’t want to do that.
When is the next Jill Kismet book coming out?
The most current Jill Kismet book, Flesh Circus, released in November ‘09. I don’t have a date yet for the release of the next book, Heaven’s Spite. We’re working on it!
Glocks don’t have hammers!
I know. Go here and read, please. I thought that in a different world with hellbreed, scurf, and Weres, modified gun design would be easy for a reader to accept. I was wrong. I am glad to report I have listened to my Readers and given Jill different guns.
When will Strange Angels be available?
Strange Angels, my first Young Adult book, is now out. The second in the series, Betrayals, is now out. The second in the series, Betrayals, released November ‘09. The third, ,Jealousy , is scheduled for release in July ‘10.
When is the next Steelflower book coming out?
The next Steelflower book, Steelflower’s Song, isn’t written yet. My schedule just hasn’t permitted it. I have it in my head and will get to it as soon as I can.
Does Lili sign books?
If you’d like to set up a book signing, please click here and we’ll see what we can work out.
If you’d like a signed copy of a Saintcrow book, you can also ask Cover to Cover Books. They’re very willing to send signed (and personalized) books for cover price plus reasonable postage. (They do also mail overseas.) All my books, even the Anna Beguines are available, signed and/or personalized, through them. Also, check my Events page to see if I’m signing near you.
What about Valentine’s Fall?
Valentine’s Fall was the working title for Dead Man Rising. Somehow the working title slipped through the production department (poor lads and lasses, they had enough to deal with.) So, just to clear up any confusion, Valentine’s Fall is Dead Man Rising, out in paperback September 2006.
Are there any movie plans in the works?
None right now.
What’s this about books published under another name?
You can find some of my previous work here, under the name Anna Beguine.
Is Japhrimel really dead?
The word I’d use to describe Japh’s status isn’t dead. It’s more like…dormant. And that’s all I can say until you’ve read Dead Man Rising.
Who are Lili’s characters based on?
There are some secondary characters based very loosely on people I’ve known. But none of my protagonists are based on myself or anyone I know or have known.
Is SIGMA real?
No. SIGMA and the Watchers (not to mention Circle Lightfall) are all fictional, though I do take some liberties with American and European history in many of my books. Really.
I love the characters and I want to know more about them!
That’s great! Pop by the forum, if you like. It’s fan based and very welcoming!
