A New Look Calls for a Contest! Win a Free Digital ARC
Win a free digital ARC!
The website had undergone a top to bottom renovation and I’m really very thrilled with the fantastic work Jeremiah Tolbert of Clockpunk Studios did with it. A new book deserves a new site filled with all sorts of goodies, right? I hope you find the site more reader-friendly now, with separate book pages for all my novels/collections/anthologies, with easy to click buy links, and I’m in the process of building up some extras on each book page, to make them more interesting to visit. And I’m over the moon with how Jeremiah integrated Kurt and Zelda’s fabulous web art into the new design; I love the watermark affect of the sketch on the bottom of each page and the peppering of the colored banners throughout the pages. Have a click around to see the full extent of the customizations he did. I highly recommend Clockpunk Studios to anyone looking to have some website work done.
Let’s celebrate! Win a free digital ARC!
Such big changes call for a contest. I’m giving away Fifteen digital ARCs (Advanced Reader Copies) of The Bone Flower Throne. It’s available in both Mobi (Kindle) and epub (Nook) formats, and while I’d love the winners to review the book at Goodreads/Amazon/B&N/blog when they’re done, it’s not a requirement. To enter, simply leave a comment below (only on the WordPress blog; not LiveJournal); be sure to use an active email address* when filling out the comment form, for winners’ files will be sent to those addresses. I’d really love to give away the full fifteen, so please let your friends know about the contest (and if the turnout is more than anticipated, I might up the number of ARC prizes…). I’ll hold the drawing Tuesday September 3rd and email out files to the winners the following day.
*I promise not to use your email address for anything outside the purposes of this contest and will only be used/looked at in the event you win a prize. I will not be collecting email addresses to spam you with unwanted mail, nor will I sell your email address to third parties. I figure if you want me emailing you with publishing news, you will sign up for the mailing list.
I can see why you’re so pleased with the new site, it’s great. The art really adds a lot.

I’ve always found South and Central American cultures fascinating and love the art you have up here! Congrats on the new site!
Lovely new site! Looking forward to reading your book.
Wow. Your site looks amazing. Congratulations on your upcoming book and also on the site revamp.
Hey Beth, great to see you here! Hopefully we can get together again soon at a World Con or World Fantasy. It’s been too long!
Rochita, thanks! I’m glad to see the writing’s going so well for you over on twitter. I’ve been too busy with start of school craziness to spend much time doing any myself. 🙂
Philip and John, thanks for stopping by and welcome!
YEAH!!! I’m so excited to read this book! Congratulations on all this success! 😀
And yes, the rest of the revamped website looks beautiful as well!
Lovely website! Congrats.
Hi! My friend Doug Sharp pointed me to your page, his link saying that he loved your work. Since I had never heard of your work before, and I trust his judgment in things narrative, I came over here. I would love to win your contest so that I could read your book. I promise to review it at Amazon.com.
Thanks for running such a great contest.
Hey Adrian! Glad to see you over here. One of these days we’ve got to have a CW reunion at a con. I miss you!
Thanks for stopping by, Pam!
Louise, welcome! Doug is a very dear friend too; we both attended the Clarion West workshop back in 2002 (along with Adrian) and I really admire his strength and determination.
Sounds interesting! (Martha Wells pointed me at this post on Twitter.)
Hi Max! Thanks for stopping by!
I really like the new look of your website and I’d love to read the book.
Sounds like a really interesting novel, I’d love to read it!
Read about this on Martha Wells’ livejournal post, thought I’d give it a look. Color me interested. 🙂
Welcome, Ulrika, Paula, and Peter! And thanks for the heads-up about Martha’s blog post. I somehow missed that one this morning. 🙂
That cover art is fantastic! Aztec fantasy? Why yes, I don’t mind if I do…
The cover was done by Zelda Devon. She does fantastic work. Thanks for stopping by, Rebekah!
I prefer all my thrones to be well-powdered with bone, and I much look forward to reading the book.
The site looks fabulous and the book sounds facinating! Even if I don’t win, this is going on my to read list.
Thanks for coming by, Deanna, and for your kind words. 🙂
AE, I love the cover art for Brood of Bones; I think I saw it before a while back on deviantART when the artist originally posted it (though my memory could be faulty). It’s just lovely and stunning in detail. Thanks for stopping by!
This book sounds really neat. I’ll have to read it whether or not I win.
Thanks for stopping by, Lisa! Welcome!
Wow. Your cover art and the new site design look great! Congrats on the upcoming release.
