Behind-the-scenes book talk with a bestselling author and his unicorn. Join 6000+ readers of my 150 books as I share stories behind the stories, unbox the creative process, and lead a disobedient "artisan author" movement to treat readers like rockstars and make the book world suck less.
Last chance for signed books
|
Hey and happy Saturday! I just wanted to remind you that my signed books sale ends tomorrow. Click here to check it out.I've never offered signed books online before, but over the past week, a lot of you have been ordering signed copies of your favorites: everything from Fat Vampire to The Beam, from the "Dark Tower on LSD" epic of Unicorn Western to the first book I ever wrote, The Bialy Pimps. But at some point, I need to close the sale, order the books, sign them, and ship them back out. Hence tomorrow's "last chance" deadline. So if you'd like to get a signed copy of any of my books (or get any full series at a discount), be sure to do so by the end of the day tomorrow.

OH, YES, AND THERE'S SOMETHING ELSE, TOO!In case you live in Austin and prefer your signed books in person, I'm actually going to be at three open-air markets this weekend and next, meeting readers and hawking dead trees with pretty covers. Come say hi! Here's the deets (you can click the links to find the addresses):
My booth looks like this, BTDubs, so you can recognize me easily if you're in the area:
So yeah -- if you're in Austin this weekend (or nearby and looking for a road trip to meet a legendary and handsome author), c'mon up and say hi. I love doing these things specifically because a writer's life is usually a lonely one ... but at these markets, I actually get to get out there and talk to the real people who make my career possible. Thanks for being a fan, however you get your books! P.S: Seriously, though: Don't forget that the signed books sale ends tomorrow. Click here to order before I shut it all down. . |

I have some good news for you audiophiles out there! (Or at least the kind of audiophiles who are into audiobooks.) I finally got tired of being asked "Are your books available in audio?" and decided to do something about it. For a long time, I've had to lower my head and admit, "Um, only Fat Vampire is available in audio. Sorry." Now, though, I've done two audiobook-related things that I think you'll like: FIRST, I've put all of the great audiobooks I've had from the past up on my direct...
Last month, I sent you something called "Why most of my books have two authors." It was all about my creative relationship with my constant co-author, Sean Platt. I got a lot of responses to that one. (Something I encourage, by the way. I don't get a lot of replies to these, so sometimes I wonder if anyone is reading.) I must never have explained the way Sean and I co-author to a lot of you ... or maybe I just didn't go into as much detail. Readers seemed to think it was interesting, hearing...
I sometimes forget there are two names on most of the books I sell. In fact, it's so normal for me to see "Sean Platt" beside my name that I never realize the idea of a two-author book is unusual for readers. I wasn't always so accepting of co-authorship. I'm a huge Stephen King fan, but until I became a writer myself, I regarded The Talisman with suspicion because "Peter Straub" was on its cover with him. What was I to make of that? How could two authors write a book? I thought book-writing...
