Personal Effects: Dark Art

J.C. Hutchins is going to take over the world. Meteoric doesn’t begin to describe what’s about to happen. Holy crap. I’m so proud to be one of the first beta clones, one of the first agents of J.C.’s Ministry of Propaganda.

Personal Effects: Dark Art is coming out on June 9th. You can pre-order here. Watch the video below to see why.

I’m in awe. And I get to see J.C. in a week. Huzzah!

Christiana Ellis’s Nina Kimberly the Merciless: Buy it Friday!

Friday marks the release of Christiana Ellis’s debut novel, Nina Kimberly the Merciless. Christiana is a wonderful person and an awesome talent. And for those that don’t know her own work (which you should), you should recognize Christiana from MaAH as the voice of Marrissa, the town herbalist.

Nina Kimberly is being published by Dragon Moon Press, so I’m even more invested in this novel’s success! If you follow me on Twitter, follow along on Friday for an opportunity to have one of the last remaining copies of MaAH (the self-pub version) signed and mailed out to you that same day! (oh, and did I say it would be free?)

Get on board, and defeat those sparkly vampires!!

This may be a glitch…

but I’m going to claim it as the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the TRUTH! :-)

MaAH has been sitting on Page 2 of the iTunes Literature Featured Chart for around a year now. Today I open up iTunes and I see this:

Appearance: DRS Ep. 80 – The Philippa Ballantine Interview

I know I said to go over to the Dead Robots’ Society website to subscribe, but I had to include this episode in my feed. Last week I had the opporunity to interview Philippa Ballantine, our own Gloria Platt (and oh yeah, an author that just got a publshing deal with Ace Books!).  Enjoy.

Appearance: Dead Robots’ Society Ep. 78

I’ve joined the crew over at The Dead Robots’ Society as a co-host. DRS is a roundtable podcast — writers talking about writing. Justin Macumber, Terry Mixon, and Ryan Stevenson (along with other hosts past and present) share their experiences attempting to become published authors. Some episodes center on aspects of writing and/or the business of writing, while others contain interviews with other authors.

This is the second and last episode I’ll be posting in my feed. Ep. 78 is a discussion of point of view in fiction. Please visit the The Dead Robots’ Society website for more info (and to get the .pdf I created for the discussion) on this episode and to subscribe!

Appearance: Dead Robot’s Society, Ep. 77

I’ve joined the crew over at The Dead Robots’ Society as a co-host. DRS is a roundtable podcast — writers talking about writing. Justin Macumber, Terry Mixon, and Ryan Stevenson (along with other hosts past and present) share their experiences attempting to become published authors. Some episodes center on aspects of writing and/or the business of writing, while others contain interviews with other authors.

This is the first episode where I appear as a regular host. Ep. 77 is an interview with Nathan Nowell, author of the Share Series. We focus on podcasting your fiction, contrasting our styles and explaining the decision process one should take before podcasting their novel.

Later this week I’ll drop ep. 78 of the DRS podcast in this feed. If you want to listen to more of the DRS podcast and/or subscribe (to get future episodes), please visit The Dead Robots’ Society website!

Appearance: Dead Robot’s Society Ep. 73

I like what the guys over at the Dead Robot’s Society are doing with their writing podcast… because they keep asking me to come over and play.

Last week I co-hosted/was a guest on DRS and we chatted about something I know a little about… self-publishing. I also talked a little about signing with Dragon Moon Press, so if you are interested, the episode can be found here.

Announcement – MaAH has a publisher!

Ah yes…

00:00 – Announcement

Dragon Moon Press will be publishing Murder at Avedon Hill. No set date at this time, but we’re looking at late ’09.

03:30 – Spread the Word!

Press Releases can be found on the Media Kit Page.  Please send to your local paper or media outlet… any entity that might be interested in the story of an unpublished author using ‘new media’ to land a publishing deal. Send me an email and let me know what you’ve done… we’re going to take this to the next level. Thanks, people!!

Last thing (not mentioned in the audio announcement). If you have a website or blog, please add a quick post about the publishing deal and link to the Press Page at http://pgholyfield.com/the-book/press – It will definitely help!
