Twenty-five days to MIDNIGHT BLUE-LIGHT SPECIAL.

There are twenty-five days remaining before the release of Midnight Blue-Light Special, the second book in the InCryptid series. I am...I'm still not quite sure that I believe it, honestly. This is such a difficult series to explain to people, because it's so silly and so serious at the same time, and I'm still a little bit in awe of the fact that I'm allowed to write it.

Thank you, thank you, to everyone who's taken a chance on this series. Thank you for looking at my pink, pink cover and my silly, silly cover blurb, and going "Sure, this is worth my time and/or dollars." Thank you for reading and reviewing and spreading the word. I honestly couldn't be here without you.

Thank you also to my agent, and to everyone at DAW Books, because let's face it, I can be a little odd sometimes, and when an author who's doing pretty well with a dark urban fantasy series says "I wanna write something with talking mice," you'd be forgiven for being a little, well, hesitant. But they didn't hesitate. They said "Seanan has done good things with strange concepts before, and they let me have my weird little world full of cryptids and blood feuds and secrets.

There are not enough thanks in the world for what I'm feeling right now.

Thank you all.

Because I'm waiting on word about a cross-country transfer, I haven't been preordering things like I usually do. With only 25 days left (YAY), I thought I'd be pretty safe. But there's no Kindle version? I totally get that formats are not within your control, but do you happen to know if there will be one?

I'll dead-tree it if there's no other option, but after moving 10 times in the past 8 years (twice internationally, once cross-country), I'm trying to save my aching back by cutting down on the physical ownership stuff.

It's there! It's there! :) The Kindle version just showed up on Amazon for pre-order.

Yay! At a $1.50 more than the dead-tree version, but it's pre-ordered anyway! *Muppet flail*
