Exciting News...And A Whole Lot More!

 

Happy Monday!

Well, as my Hook Me Up! subscribers already know, there's some exciting stuff I'm about to share with you. But first -- have you signed up for March Mania yet? There are LOTS of prizes and it's not too late! Just click right HERE and get entered to win big!

Next up, look at this cover to the left. I personally think this might be the cutest, funniest UFO cover yet. But it won't become real if the Kickstarter isn't funded. :-(

There are lots of great backer rewards, and there are still some tuckerizations left, including a couple of mine.

(Psst... Due to some things you don't know about yet, but will find out soon enough, whoever gets the tuckerizations for UFO6 is going to end up tuckerized in short stories in both the Alien Series and a different series...and that means main series bleed-over. Not saying which additional one yet, but it will be cool.)

So click HERE and head on over to check out the Kickstarter so we can get some funny on!

Now...guess what was just named an RT Book Reviews Top Pick? That's right, Alien Education! In fact, check out some of the lovely things they said in their May 2017 issue:

"Koch’s genius for taking the completely outlandish and making it seem perfectly plausible insures her loyal readers are in for yet another amazing roller-coaster ride. Great stuff!"

Guess what helps your girl out? That's right, pre-orders! They're about the most important thing going for authors these days (followed closely by Amazon reviews). So please do your girl a solid and pre-order Alien Education (and Aliens Abroad, while you're at it) and help ensure that we keep on keeping Kitty going and going and going...!

And speaking of going... It's time for that BIG News I mentioned earlier! Wait for it...wait for iiiitttt...

KITTY'S GOING TO 20 IN 2020!

I know, it's too happy to be true, but true it IS! DAW Books has just bought Books 18, 19, and 20 in the Alien/Katherine "Kitty" Katt series!

Due to my wanting to change a few things around to make it more challenging for Kitty & Company and therefore more fun for you and me, the release order will now be:

Book 15 - Alien Education
Book 16 - Aliens Abroad
Book 17 - Aliens Like Us
Book 18 - Alien Galaxy
Book 19 - Alien Rescue
Book 20 - Alien Reckoning

(If we have any Goodreads Librarians noting this, if you could please share this change with the Powers That Be over there, it would be a lovely bit of help!)

So, get ready to keep rockin' with Kitty all over the galaxy, the multiverse, and the universe, because we're goin' to twenty!

We're entering the heavy Con Season and May's Book Tour is lining up as well. So, here's where you can see the me this Spring and Summer!
