Today is the official release date for A Local Habitation [Amazon]|[Mysterious Galaxy], available now in bookstores across North America. The Kindle edition comes out on March 9th; I do not know why there is a week's delay between the two, but it's a great opportunity for you Kindle-lovers to pick up a physical copy, read it, and give it your local women's shelter. ;)
Because this is What We Do Around Here, I present our resident little dead ghoul, Mel, all dressed up for the occasion. Not that she has anywhere to go, as she has a tendency to get herself barred from all pleasant social venues. Something about killing the other patrons...
But yes, it is my release day. I have an Amy and several puffy cats, and have thus far resisted the urge to smack my head against anything. Now help the bookstores empty their shelves by rushing out and bringing Toby home with you!
Now I'm tempted to draw Toby in . . . OK, no spoilers. Suffice to say there's a scene I really want to try to capture.
I think I devoured it much the same as I would a basket of shrimp: practically whole, with occasional moments to savor the spicy cocktail sauce, crispy breading, or succulent shrimp. Now I need to go back and treat it like a 7-course Italian dinner: sloooooooooooooowly, so I can savor the spices, the sauces, and the sheer joy of someone else's good cooking.

Thanks! (Yes, I am brain-dead before lunch . . .)
