VERITY PRICE!!!!!!

Ahem. Discount Armageddon has debuted on the New York Times Bestseller list, in position #35. This is otherwise known as "the best position," because it is mine, and I love it. I am...I am overjoyed. I am SO EXCITED I COULD DIE. This is my second time on the list (my first was with Late Eclipses), and to make it with my very first book in a brand new series is like a dream come true.

This is my crazy little book about a ballroom dancing cryptozoologist cocktail waitress with talking mice in her closet and nothing in her fridge, and it's on the New York Times Bestseller list. I can't believe it.

Thank you, thank you, a thousand times thank you to everyone who bought this book during release week. I am so glad, and so grateful, and so excited. Above everything else, I am so excited.

Discount Armageddon made the list.

Yay! Congratulations! Here's hoping this means more InCryptid can be written!

seanan_mcguire

I surely do hope so.

Congratulations on #35! I hope this fits in with your plans for world domination.

Also, CHEESE!

(I have no cake. Fortunately, I also have no Aeslin mice to be saddened by this, and I do have cookies.)

seanan_mcguire

March 16 2012, 16:42:29 UTC 5 years ago

Cookies are often an acceptable substitute.

Congratulations! I guess I'm far from the only one to heed your plea. (Have yet to dive in; maybe this weekend, with no guests or travel on the agenda.)

SQUEEEEEEE!!!!!

That is such exciting news!

(are there any pictures or concept drawings of the mice? I have this sudden urge to get some mickey ears and create an Aeslin mouse costume for con this summer....)

I will admit that after hearing of your problems with Amazon, I made a point of being sure to buy this week. (From Amazon, alas; that was the easiest to reach for me). For some reason, though, yours are the books I'm most likely to mention at family dinners,and I have been talking up how amazing they are.

seanan_mcguire

March 16 2012, 16:44:01 UTC 5 years ago

Aw, thanks.

[kermitflail]Yayyy!!![/kermitflail] I had a incredible amount of fun meeting Verity and crew. May each succeeding book in the series climb higher up the list.

Congrats! :D

If ever a book deserved to make the NYT, it's this one. I just finished reading it like thirty minutes ago, and it is AMAZING.

Thank you!

March 15 2012, 21:20:00 UTC 5 years ago

Woohoo! So happy for you! And in some ways, me, because this gives Midnight Blue Light Special a pretty good shot at respectable sales and can get a contract for more InCryptid books and that's a very good thing.

seanan_mcguire

March 16 2012, 16:45:15 UTC 5 years ago

That's my hope.
