It's Release Day!

And it's here in style! Barnes and Noble chose it as one of their top picks for May! Check out what they said and then see what Pearls Cast Before a McPig, Live to Read, Under the Covers, and Night Owl Reviews also thought of it!
Come see the me to get your copies of Camp Alien signed! I'll be at the Mysterious Galaxy Birthday Bash on Saturday, May 7. I'll be at the store by 2pm, because I'll be interviewed live by the geektitude podcast at 2:30. For a preview of what's to come, check out geektitude epidsode 28 that has an interview with MG owner and all around cool chick, Maryelizabeth Yturralde. Cake at 3:00, then I'll be on a panel with Marie Andreas, Jonathan Maberry, and Sharon Skinner at 3:30. SO MUCH FUN! Food With Fans after the signing.
On Saturday, May 14, I'll be with the Amazing Wyked Writers at Barnes and Noble Henderson for a mass signing from 2:00-5:00pm. (Due to my also being in Vegas for StokerCon, no Food With Fans event after the signing this time.)

After making all your plans to get your bookie wookies signed and all that jazz, see what Night Owl Reviews thought of Alien in Chief.


And, for those of you who will have already devoured Camp Alien by the time you read this (I know you're out there and you're legion), a reminder that Plush Life is there to fill the void. You can get it from Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords, and CreateSpace. So you'll still have things to read, I promise.

Lots of people are talking about MECH, too. Check out the Kickstarter Spotlight at Geeks of Doom where they interview one of the editors, Nick Sharps. And Ragnarok and Roll, D&D Journey of the Fifth Edition, and Creative Play and Podcast are all talking about MECH, too!
Speaking of talking and just for fun, check out The Renaissance Geek Episodes 5 and 6, Drinking with Jason #22 featuring my (brand new) son-in-law, Kenny. Then check out Creative Play and Podcast's Steampunk Invasion.
After that, find out why Misa Buckley writes Sci Fi Romance.
Hugo Nominations are final, and my awesome editor, Sheila Gilbert, is nominated again in the Editor: Long Form category. She's so very deserving, and I'd like to encourage everyone to vote for her. Remember that even if you can't attend WorldCon, you can get the Hugo Voter's Packet and that gives you a tonnage of books to read and the right to vote for who wins the Hugos.
Now, for some science! Quartz has more info on that ninth -- or is it tenth, Pluto Supporters -- planet that's lurking about our solar system.
Last but not least is a reminder that Phoenix Comicon is coming, June 2-5. And with it, my Evening Erotica event where we learn a little and play a lot -- and by play I mean the Euphemism Game! Make plans to join me along with some special guests on Friday, June 3, from 7:30-10:30pm. Tons of prizes, tons of fun, so don't miss out! The rest of my schedule and booth location to come.
That's it for today, but as always, more's on the way, albeit sporadically since I'll be traveling. See many of you on book tour, and all of you have wonderful weeks. Let's be happy readers out there. Peace out, my li'l gangstas, and I'll catch you on the flip side!
Love,
Gini
