Finally! RAVEN CALLS cover!

They haven’t gotten me a copy that says Book 7 instead of Book 8 (the new computer system counted “Banshee Cries” as a full book, so renumbered RAVEN CALLS to Book 8), but here’s the cover of RAVEN CALLS, Book 7 of the Walker Papers! I love it!!! Muuuuuuuuuuch larger version behind the cut. :)

bahahah!

I’ve just seen a handful of photos from the shoot that will be producing the cover for EASY PICKINGS, the Joanne Walker/Jane Yellowrock “fan fiction by the authors themselves” crossover story that Faith Hunter and I are writing.

So far I…

Later Gerri said they were equal parts thrilled and…

Next public appearance is at the UAF bookstore from 2:30-4pm on Tuesday! Awesome (if I do say so myself) picture of me with some readers at NYCC! eta: um,…

yes, yes…

…that was in fact a catastrophic hard drive failure. I brought it in, the lads at Geek City said “Oh dear, that’s not a virus, that error message means your hard drive has just gone bad, might as well buy a new one because it’ll cost as much to fix it to get a new one.” Thank God for Dropbox. o.O Turns out Fairbanks is not a great place to buy a new netbook, though. Which is mildly inconvenient, since I’d been planning to, y’know, work this week. But I’ll…
