The Enforcer Enigma Audiobook
The Enforcer Enigma audiobook will soon be uploaded to Amazon for distribution to Audible and Apple. Author forums are reporting various delays (from 2 weeks to 2 months) so I have no idea how long it will take for them to accept it for distribution. Plus sometimes ACX kicks it back for no good reason […]

Gail Carriger interviews David R Slayton about White Trash Warlock
Hello my darling Gentler Reader! It’s been a while since I did one of these but please welcome the wonderful David R. Slayton to the blog today. I met David at the dawn of time (shortly after Soulless came out). I believe it was at a book tour event at the Tattered Cover in Denver? […]

Heroine’s Journey Cover Art
Something different today, Gentle Reader! A little while ago I released the Heroine’s Journey: For Writers, Readers, and Fans of Pop Culture for preorder. Shall we talk about the cover?

Fictional Travel – Favorite Movies With a Strong Sense of Place
I’m a pretty chronic traveler, Gentle Reader. My parents put me on a plane by myself to the UK when I was 9. I pretty much never stopped moving after that. I’ve lived and worked overseas, as a student and as an archaeologist. Since I became a full time author I’ve travelled more, not less. […]

Faking Trademark in Fiction for Comedy Gold (San Andreas Shifters Special Extra)
So there is this thing about using trademarked names when you are writing fiction, Gentle Reader. Names like Facebook, or Coke, or (heaven forfend) Disney. (Frankly I’m slightly scared even to type that name into a blog post.) It’s a complicated legal thing which basically comes down to (so far as I can tell) most […]
