Spends his days blogging in a garage by the motorway

We begin this Sunday catchup by letting you know that Redblade, the fifth Monkey Queen book, is now available on Barnes & Noble for your Nook! You can also get it through Kobo, iTunes, and DriveThruFiction!

With that, all five Monkey Queen books are now in wide distribution again. You can get Redblade, and all the other Monkey Queen books, through Amazon or most other ebook retailers; just search the store for “Monkey Queen” or “Robert Dahlen”. More after the cut. Continue reading

hold me closer, tiny blogger

Today’s Sunday catchup is going to be a short one. I’ve got three major things I need to take care of, and all of those need to be done today. I’ve been busy getting Redblade ready for this coming Thursday, the 17th, when the fifth Monkey Queen book will debut on Kobo, iTunes, Barnes & Noble, DriveThruFiction and more! I’m finishing something for a top-secret project that I can’t say anything else about. (It is top secret…for now!) And I have to do laundry. Not as exciting as the other things, but there you go.

Just a quick reminder: If you’re a Monkey Queen fan and a reader of Portuguese, I could use your help! I promise I’m not going to sell you anything, add you to some weird emailing list, or send ogres to your house; I just need some help with a publication opportunity. Contact me for more details; I’ll keep everything confidential. Thanks!

will they blog again next week, can my mind really take it?

Sunday catchup time! For those of you who haven’t stopped by this week, a quick reminder: The first four Monkey Queen books are now available again on Kobo, iTunes and DriveThruFiction! (Due to Amazon requirements, Redblade will not be available outside of Amazon until March 17.) For US residents, click the links! Outside of the US, search your favorite e-book retailer for “Robert Dahlen”! More after the cut. Continue reading

another glimpse of the blogger across the water

I really didn’t intend to leave all of you hanging when I mentioned that “next big announcement” earlier. Really! I just haven’t had much time or energy to post more this week, due to other commitments and that dang flu bug that’s going around. But here’s the announcement: Starting later this week (time permitting), I’ll be serializing the first Monkey Queen book, Of Introductions And Abductions, on Wattpad! More details soon, and more after the cut. Continue reading

where to now, St. Peter? if it’s true, I’m in your blog

First, in case you missed it this week, a big announcement: After several months in Kindle Unlimited, the Monkey Queen series will be returning to wider distribution as of March 4 (except for Redblade, which will be March 17). This does mean that you won’t be able to read the books for free in KU, but it also means that you’ll be able to get them through places other than Amazon. (Kobo is all set, and I’ll be getting listings ready to go at other stores on the 4th.) I’m hoping that the wider exposure will lead to more people discovering Michiko and Beth’s books, and telling their friends. Let’s get that word spread! More after the cut. Continue reading

love is the opening door, love is what we blogged here for

One last reminder for this Sunday catchup: There’s still time to read the new Valentine’s Day Monkey Queen short story, “That’s Amore!” (Well, there’s still time to read it this Valentine’s Day. And time to read it after Valentine’s Day, since it won’t be taken down soon. Or later. Or even after next Valentine’s Day. You know what I mean. I hope you do. I’m not sure I do any more…) Anyway, more after the cut, including some spoilery fan art you’ll want to see! Continue reading

We’ll start this Sunday catchup with a quick reminder: Talk to me!

I really don’t bite, and I’d love to hear from you! (You can also leave feedback on the “Contact & More” page, tweet me, or leave a comment on the Facebook page.) More after the cut.

I have seen the blogger, he has been here too

Sunday means catchup, and here’s some happy news: Although I can’t set a publication date yet for the sixth Monkey Queen book, The Crown Of Kylthena, I can confirm that Willow will be back to do the cover! (We’re getting it done early to avoid some scheduling conflicts she’ll have later this year.) I’ve already seen her first sketches, and I promise that this cover will knock your socks off! (We recommend putting on socks when it’s time to reveal the cover.) More after the cut. Continue reading

he’s not old and I’m told, and I’m told he’s a blogger

Let’s start this Sunday catchup with a reminder: Michiko and Beth could use your help! If you like the Monkey Queen books, spread the word. Like our Facebook page, tweet about the books, mention us on Pinterest or Instagram or Google+. Leave a review on your blog or Goodreads or Amazon. I’m hoping for big things for the Monkey Queen in 2016, but they can be even bigger if you pitch in!

More, including a peek at some upcoming blog posts, after the cut! Continue reading
