Books Books Books-free for blogging

After opening my mail, I've discovered that I have received my author copies of the new trade paperback of Twists of the Tale, my cat horror antho and also The Coyote Road.
I will be giving away some of these titles for blogging (and I'd love for whoever blogs about them to also post your review on amazon--don't know if it helps, but it can't hurt). Afraid it can only be within the US because of postage costs--unless you're willing to pay postage.

I'll do one at a time and warn you all in advance. I'll make the first announcement Wednesday.

Thank you. I return, would you like a copy of Greasing the Pan when it comes out?

You bet? Who's publishing it and when will it be out?

Fantastic Books is putting it out, and Greasing the Pan should be out in two weeks. The Savage Pen of Onan should be out about three weeks to a month later.

I can see I'm going to have to stay awake if I want a chance at Coyote Road. Which I do, and I'd pay postage. :)

Works for me ... provided the announcement is posted by 6 AM in the morning, I might have a shot at one!

I just bought a copy of The Coyote Road and get to start reading it tonight. I'd love to read Twists of the Tale too, though. :)

I realize that people from all over read my blog so I try to announce at different times to give everyone a shot.

Hi, Ellen. Don't need a free copy, but as long as I'm on your page, I thought I'd mention that I'm working my way through your vampire anthology. Great selection of stories.

Hi Robin,
That's great to hear--I enjoyed editing those two volumes and would love to edit a new one like them some day.

Oh noes! Don't let the book coyotes get to the book cats! ;)

Too late--they were packed together by my agent's asst.! No harm done so far...they're getting along ok.

Oh, very exciting! I'd love a copy of Coyote Road, but am I disqualified by already having received a book previously? I don't want to be greedy! :)

You're not disqualified.
