hopefulThis is my third book. This is my first book. This is my second series (although this one is actually a trilogy). This is, at least for the moment, my longest book, and in some ways, my most complex. I am terrified and elated, and, because this is What We Do Around Here, I present our resident little dead ghoul, Mel, all dressed up for the occasion. This is the first time I've cut her hair for the purposes of a pin-up. It's also the most elaborate set of lighting effects I've yet used, and I like it, even if it does leave her looking a little gray (only appropriate).
But yes, it is my release day. I have eaten a cotton candy-flavored cupcake, and tonight I will have dinner with Kate. Amy arrives this weekend. I have not shoved anything into my eye. Now help reward my publisher's faith in me by rushing out and bringing the Masons home with you!

It looks like the Nook version is also on target for a May 1 release; they're accepting pre-orders on BN.com. Still no Nook version of A Local Habitation, though.

The Toby books are published by DAW, not Orbit, so the contracts would be handled differently. Sadly, my publishers are not indicators of each other.

I do recommend continuing to write periodically, just so the publishers know the demand is there. That's what's going to push them into another platform.
