Linkages and Book Sale!
Nov. 19th, 2010 09:34 amOK, I figured I should update some of the stuff going on around the webs regarding me and my books and my friends.
First up is a charity drive being sponsored by fellow DAW author Patrick Rothfuss for Heifer International. There are going to be tons of copies of signed books and books in general up for grabs in this thing, including a set of signed hardcover copies of the Throne of Amenkor books. There are additional signed books on this list and according to the main page, there will be more books on the list in the future, so keep watch! I'll try to update you again in the future. (Ben Tate has donated a book as well, but I haven't seen them up on a list yet.)
Next, here's a guest blog by Patricia Bray (
pbray), fellow co-editor of the After Hours: Tales from the Ur-Bar anthology coming out March 2011 (preorder now!), about some of the things she and I learned about the publishing world from the editor's side of the desk. Some useful advice in here regarding how to handle yourself when dealing with an editor (or agent, even though it's about editing) or fellow authors you might be working with on a project.
Still no news on the anthology Beauty Had Her Way, which contains my Amenkor short story "Tears of Blood." I've been told it is scheduled for a December release, but I've been checking the website and I haven't seen it up for sale yet. The cover isn't up yet. I'll keep everyone posted. It's being released by Dark Quest books.
And since we're moving into the holiday gift-giving season, I figured I'd post about how to get signed copies of my book (and Ben's) from me personally again. Here are the deals!

The Skewed Throne: $10
The Cracked Throne: $10
The Vacant Throne: $10

Close Encounters of the Urban Kind: $20 (includes my short story "Mastihooba")
