Various bits of InCryptid roundup.

First off, if you're interested, the spoiler-filled book discussion post is continuing to rage on over here, and you're welcome to join in. Read, and come to the party!

I've been blogging for Penguin* all this week, that being something they like to have authors do when they have new books out. So head over to hear my thoughts on cryptids as the fairy stories of the modern era, Toby vs. Verity, round one, fight, and the serious science of cryptozoology. It's fun!

catsittingstill wrote a song about the Aeslin mice. I can now die happy. I won't, because I have things to do, but I can.

I have a bunch of reviews to post, but those should probably go in their own roundup. So I will leave you with the reminder that my book release party, and the latest iteration of the Traveling Circus and Snake-Handling Show, will be on March 17th, at Borderlands Books. Hope to see you there!

(*DAW is my publisher, but DAW is distributed by Penguin, which makes it logical for me to blog at Penguin.)

We have no indie bookstores in my town and BAMM (which I've nicknamed Books-A-Dozen) didn't have a copy of your Discount Armageddon left by the time I finally managed to get there. Naturally the clue-less college student who was working the cash register let it slip that the store ONLY GOT TWO COPIES IN THIS WEEK.
How can you possibly have a good first week of sales when the stores won't carry a proper number of your books in stock even during the first week of sales?
I really don't want to have to buy an e-reader, since I'll probably manage to drop-kick it into e-reader heaven before I've owned it for a month, but it's looking more and more like I'm going to have to get one.
:(
