5, 4, 3, 2....

Lots of stuff I'm gonna try to say in this blog, so stick around if you like answers to questions you might have.

First: I've uploaded the first three books in the My Blood Approves series and Switched up to Smashwords. So people who have a Nook or other ereaders can read all the books in the series. I'll get Wisdom up on Sunday on Smashwords too.

If you're interested in Smashwords, check it out: here.

I've also revamped the covers, for no apparent reason, and the new covers are up on Amazon now. Well, they should be. Soon.

Also - the giveaway ends at Midnight tonight, so that's 22 hours left. If you haven't entered, it's pretty much your last chance to win all 4 books in the My Blood Approves series in paperback. It's a good deal. So enter!

Okay - now onto the important business. I've been getting lots of questions about when Wisdom will be out and why it's not available for pre-order and if it will be out in Kindle the same day as paperback. Here are the answers:

Wisdom will be out in Kindle the same day as paperback.

It's not up for pre-order because of how I publish books - meaning I do it myself and I don't have a publishing company setting the release with a timer with Amazon.

Which brings us to the final question: When will be Wisdom be released?

I've been touting August 22nd as the release date, but really, that's the latest it will be available. I don't have tons of control about when Amazon decides to put it live. I upload it, and they tell me it takes 24-48 hours.

When I released Switched in July, it took 12 hours for it to go live. Wisdom is all ready to go, uploaded and sitting on Amazon. I'll click the publish button later today, and then anytime between Friday night and Sunday morning, Wisdom  will be out.

So, if you're a really zealous reader, you can check Amazon this weekend, and it might be up sooner. If you have other things going on, I can guarantee that Wisdom will be up Sunday at the latest.

Also, if you do check and happen to notice that Wisdom is on Amazon, and I haven't said anything yet, can you please let me know? I'll be checking all weekend for its status so I can let you guys know as soon as its up, but sometimes I miss things.

And on a similar note, I'd like to say that I'd really enjoy it if you bought Wisdom this weekend. I have a feeling that I can get in the top 100 books on Kindle with it, and I'd like to be in the top 100.

But that's just a me thing, and you all feel free to buy things whenever you want. I'm grateful to everyone of you buying my books, and I hope that you continue to enjoy the series as much as you have so far.

Thanks guys, and I really can't wait to hear you all think of Wisdom. :)

Jim Henson predicted the end of the world

Or more accurately, Brian Henson did. But more on that in a second... I read an article today about the BP oil spill, and some analysts think the oil spill won't end until Christmas. Meaning 4 million barrels oil would be dumped in the Gulf. And (I'm quoting) "That much oil would wipe out all life in the Gulf and completely change the ecosystem." (read the full story here ) Let me repeat that:  That much oil would wipe out all life in the Gulf. In less than a year, those greedy bastards and their lack of foresight will probably lead to the destruction of an entire ecosystem.  Fish, crabs, eels, dolphins, sea turtles, and all the plant life. Here's a list of how and what animals are effected by this: here . This doesn't even mention the economic damage it will do to tourism and the jobs of people who thrived on fishing and dependency on the Gulf life. One more time: That much oil would wipe out all life in the Gulf. Let's put aside how devastating it is to ...
