A little wager…

These things happen sometimes. You get two editors, one publisher, two titles being released and launched simultaneously. Things get competitive.

The amazing Liz G, editor of the superlative Scary Kisses, and I have a bet going.

If Scary Kisses sells more copies than Belong before the end of SwanCon, 5 April, Liz has to edit a sequel volume within the next 18 months.

If Belong sells more copies than Scary Kisses during this timeframe, I have to edit an anthology of Australian-themed vampire stories in the next 18 months.

And if it’s a tie, we both have to do our respective books. (Note: copies bought by the respective contributors to Scary Kisses and Belong don’t get counted, as there are 23 in Belong and 15 in Scary Kisses.)

So it’s really up to you. Want to see More Scary Kisses? A vote costs $25 plus postage and can be placed here: http://www.indiebooksonline.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=90

Want to see Dead Red Heart: Dracula Down Under? A vote costs $35 plus postage and can be placed here: http://www.indiebooksonline.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=88

Want to see both? We don’t mind if you buy a copy of Belong and a copy of Scary Kisses.

A collection of paranormal romance with bite.

Anthologies on track for April

We’re on track to launch two anthologies at SwanCon, WA’s annual SF convention, over the Easter weekend in Perth.

Belong, speculative fantasies of migration and home, and Scary Kisses, sizzling tales of paranormal romance, will be celebrated and toasted during the event.

TP will also have a dealer table at SwanCon’s market day, Saturday 3 April, where a range of our titles will be available.

More news soon.
