InCryptid: It's a family affair.

It is with extreme pleasure and with no small degree of squeaky joy that I announce that the first two InCryptid books have been acquired by DAW Books. These urban fantasy adventures focus on the Price family of cryptozoologists as they seek to protect the cryptids of the world from humanity...and humanity from the cryptids of the world. The first two volumes are:

Discount Armageddon
Midnight Blue-Light Special

Cryptids and cuckoos and field guides, oh my! Words really can't express how insanely happy I am right now. I'm going to be working with the same team at DAW, which means I know I will have great editorial, fantastic in-house support, and a whole lot of sheer bonus fun. I'm so excited that you're all going to get the chance to meet these people. They're some of my favorites. And now, in the words of the Aeslin mice...

CHEESE! AND! CAKE!

Huzzah!

I realize I'm likely premature, but any idea when we might be able to put release dates on our calendars? (yes, I've actually got an "upcoming publication" calendar document that I update regularly)

It'll be a little while before things are nailed down, but book one is very likely in early 2012.

Congratulations. I've been so hoping that would happen, and happen quickly, based on what you've said about them.

Will there be Aeslin mice in these books?

Because, oh, it's been wayyyy too long since I've gotten to read about Aeslin mice.

If so, where can I order now? CHEESE AND CAKE!

Hmm... that seems to have somewhat startled my office mates.

Oh well they can cope!

Wonderful news! I'm doing a little chair boogie right now.

Cryptozoologists! :D :D :D :D
W00t! Scoot! Rooty-toot-toot! *pulling out the kazoos and tinhorns*

(I will say that if there are no chupacabra in there at some point, I -might- be sad, as they are my very favorites and I like to draw tiny ones.)

seanan_mcguire

November 24 2010, 18:13:56 UTC 6 years ago

There are DEFINITELY chupacabra.

Happy Happy Dance!

More Seanan on the shelves! I'm rearranging books in the next few weeks. I think I'm just going to preemptively clear the space. :-)
