It’s probably a bit too early to be excited, but I just can’t help it! I’m less than a month out now from my appearance at the Tucson Festival of Books, so naturally I am deep in to my preparations. This year, I’ll have hardcover and paperback editions of Reflection in the Shadows, something I’ve not done in the past.
The hardcover versions are limited edition runs specifically printed for this year’s event, too; what better way to commemorate your visit to the Festival than with a one-of-a-kind book? Plus you get to meet me, too! It’s a win-win for everyone.
Last year, I experimented with bookmarks that I handed out to anyone who passed by; they were something of a hit, so I’m increasing the number and leaning on my good friends at Bett’s Printing to make them a bit more polished. I love a good bookmark, and never seem to have enough. These will feature the complete list of all of my novels, in order, for all three of the series I am currently working on — making them a handy guide for what might be left on your reading list.
I also have a few leftovers from prior visits; while I won’t be able to offer my full library of novels in print form, there will be an eclectic collection of earlier works to purchase with the added benefit of getting any of them autographed. Now, here is something I hardly ever do — but if you can keep a secret, I’ve got a special deal planned for the day of the Festival. Subscribers to my newsletter will get a super-secret password the weekend of March 7th; if you correctly provide this super-secret password to me, in person, at the Festival, I’ll give you a hardcover edition of one of my earlier books for free when you purchase Reflection in the Shadows. The deal will only last as long as I have those older books left, of course, so you might want to plan accordingly. 🙂
If you’re planning in visiting, please let me know! I love to meet readers, and always look forward to chatting with them about my current books or what is yet to come in any of the series — without giving away too many spoilers. Typically the weather is pretty nice, too, making it a wonderful day for a stroll looking for literary treasures. I hope I’ll see you there!
