3 reasons to buy my books.

Ah, Saturday. A day for sweet relaxation. A day when the working author can at least pretend to get caught up on all her word counts. And, well. A day that marks Late Eclipses [Amazon]|[Mysterious Galaxy] being exactly three days from release. (Yes, I know, some stores have it out early. This doesn't make me a happy bunny, so please stop telling me about it. OCD means never coping well when people change your math.)

Some people have asked me why, exactly, they should spend their hard-earned dollars on my books, rather than on all the other lovely things they could be spending their dollars on. So I am here to present you with three excellent reasons why you should buy my books. Take two. They're small.

Reason #1:



Reason #2:



Reason #3:



Buy my books so I can continue to feed the furry monsters that sleep with their many, many sharp kitten-teeth only inches from my tender flesh. (That's Lilly, Alice, and Thomas, in order. It's actually an older picture of Alice, but she was so damn cute that I couldn't resist.)

Three days!

Yesterday I went to my local B&N and told them to please set aside a copy of "Late Eclipses" for me and I'd come get it on Tuesday.

The young lady at the counter made a note about it and asked me what it was about.

"A half-fae detective solving mysteries and dealing with fae politics."

"And this is the fourth book in the series? Why haven't I heard of this before?" *frantic typing* "We have the others in stock!"

Then I asked her if she liked zombies.


....apparently I have now sold six books by reserving one. (One LE for me, and one of each of the others for her.)

I have helped feed cats. This makes me content.

Just doing my job.

I was just kind of interested that she hadn't heard of it, and then she was all "MUST!!".
