Happy Life Day, er, Holidays!

I thought you’d like to meet my new pal…but he’s kind of shy.

Redblade: The paperback is here!

The proofs for the paperback edition of Redblade have arrived, and have been approved. They look great!

The paperback is now up on Amazon. It still needs to be linked to the ebook edition, which should happen in the next day or two; until then, use this link to buy a copy. If you’re interested in buying paperback copies of Redblade or any other Monkey Queen book directly from me, let me know.

And in related news…I am a very very happy writer.

Happy National Cookie Day!

Just thought I’d take a break, and give you a break, from promoting the 99 cent sale. It is National Cookie Day, after all, so grab some cookies and celebrate! Just like Princess Merida…

I’m a GIF!

I mentioned the wonderful new avatar that Calomiel, the French artist and comic creator, drew from me on this blog last week. What I didn’t know was that as she worked on the avatar,from sketch to ink to final art, she saved each stage, and used them to produce this marvelous GIF!

It’s nice to see Calomiel’s art as it progresses. And I’m thrilled; I’ve never been a GIF before! You can see the original on her blog here, and other work-in-progress GIFs (and so much more) as well. Merci, Calomiel!

introducing…the new me! (sort of)

I said this would be happening on Sunday, and here it is! Calomiel has finished the art for my new avatar!

If you missed Sunday’s post: Calomiel is a talented French artist and photographer! We’ve been interacting on Facebook recently, and I thought her style would work for my avatar. I was right! (And I should also add that she’s very nice and lots of fun to work with!) Find out more about her at her blog, where you can also read her delightful BDs/comic strips and see her GIFs and process posts! It’s in French, but it’s worth the effort to translate, and you can enjoy her art regardless; as she says in her header, “Comics are the universal language”. And Calomiel? Merci pour ce merveilleux nouveau avatar!
