Is it okay to start the new year with a brag? Is that okay?
I might do it anyway.
I just got an email pointing me to Tangent‘s 2015 Recommended Reading List and I’m on it. Twice. Both stories with three stars (in their 0-3 star system).
Totally just sharing something exciting, don’t mind me.
But today I found this review — in Tangent, no less — of Scarecrow, following up on reviewer Eric Kimminau’s take on Corvidae. And just look at what he had to say about my story.
“Judge & Jury” by Laura VanArendonk Baugh is the reason I had to review Scarecrow. It’s a continuation of “Sanctuary” from Corvidae. I simply had to see how it came to a conclusion. You can read my review of “Sanctuary” here….. If you read Corvidae, you must read Scarecrow, if for this story alone.
I’m pretty sure I floated down the stairs for an hour after that.
(Warning: there are major spoilers at the reviews. Use link caution.)
Remember that lovely cover I showed you last week? Now it’s got a whole book to go with it. Scarecrow releases today!
Yes, I know it’s been a busy few weeks, what with Corvidae and Mythic Indy and Scarecrow and all, but Scarecrow has my story “Judge and Jury,” which continues the story begun in Corvidae. Each can be read alone, but together they’re like, um, chocolate and peanut butter. Which actually sounds really good right now….
Guys, I have the Scarecrow cover to share, and it is pretty.
Granted, I’m an autumn-lover, so I have a natural bias toward this palette and subject matter. But, pretty.
Are you ready?
So if you need a copy of Fae to boost your chances in the #ScarecrowSelfies contest, here’s your chance!
Fae is on sale for just $.99 through July 29, 2015. at all the usual favorite retailers. You can find it at Amazon, or pretty much any other seller of ebooks you can legally find.
Who wants free books? I know, that’s a dumb question.
Who wants their birthday and Christmas shopping done early? Yeah, that’s another easy one.
So Corvidae released yesterday, and today I thought I’d share some bonus content. Twitter personality Magnus E. Magpie wrote short reviews of each story and poem included in Corvidae. You can find them all collected at editor Rhonda Parrish’s blog, so hop over and give them a browse.
Well, I got up about 25 hours ago, and my body thinks it’s 8 am Danish time, and I just finished a 9-hour flight and a 4-hour car ride with an 8-week old puppy, so this is gonna be a short post. Here’s what you need to know: Corvidae…
Remember how I said there were some new stories coming? They’re nearly here.
Today, let’s see the cover for Corvidae, an anthology of ravens, crows, magpies, jays, and more.
So, I think I’ve mentioned that I have a couple of new short stories in anthologies coming soon. If you’d like to be one of the super-special-awesome people who have it before it releases, you might want to jaunt over to editor Rhonda Parrish’s site and enter to win.…
