Heading to the Great White Way

Happy Weekend! Well, it's no secret, I head out tomorrow for the east coast. Meaning we'll be on radio silence except for the occasional post. And, of course, Twitter.

If you're in the NY/NJ/PA area, please let me know, and don't miss my signing and get together!

Saturday, April 16th
4:30-6:00PM
Posman Books
Grand Central Terminal
9 Grand Central Terminal
New York, NY 10017
Phone: 212.983.1111

We're still trying to set up a before and after get together, so if you're local or going to be local for that day, stay tuned!

Otherwise, the website has received its latest makeup change -- check it out! Lots of updates all over the place, too.

Last but not least, there's a competition going over at Bitten By Books and "Alien Tango" is in the running. But it needs champions! Only one of the Alien Collective has thrown into the ring to support it. More are needed if "Alien Tango" is to have a hope of making it to the next round, let alone win it all. You up for it? Don't let Kitty, Martini, Alpha and Airborne Teams, and, especially, Alliflash and Gigantagator down!

Looking very forward to seeing some of you next week and will miss the rest of you while I'm gone! So, until I'm back home in Sunny Arizona, have great days, enjoy "Alien in the Family", and get down with your bad selves. Peace out, li'l gangstas!

Love,
Gini

It's Gator Time!

Hey there, Gator Lovers! As my Hook Me Up! subscribers already know, we've got a lot going on this month and a lot of it's very gator-centric. How gator-centric, you ask? Well, I'm glad you asked, so let's get right to it!

First up, head over to Pearls Cast Before a McPig for the exclusive interview of the year, where Sullivan interviews the real stars of "Alien Tango" -- Alliflash and Gigantagator.

Then, check your blogs, because there's a new contest in town, and it's a Gator Battle Royale. Find out if you have what it takes to be Worth Your Weight in a Gator Battle. I'll wait while you check out the prizes. Yeah, that's right -- the winner of this fight will end up with a signed, personalized copy of "Touched by an Alien", "Alien Tango", "Love and Rockets", and "Boondocks Fantasy". AND a signed, personalized ARC of "Alien in the Family". Truly a prize worth fighting for. And with four consolation prizes up for grabs, too, this is a contest you want to be a part of!

Not nominated yet and can't wait for someone to tag you into the ring? Explain why you should be a part of the Battle Royale in the comments and, if Alliflash and Gigantagator find you worthy, you could find yourself in the octagon!

There's more winning coming this month, so stay tuned!

Love,
Gini

Alien Tango ARC Giveaway Gator Pack Two: Gigantagator Pack

HOOK ME UP! EXCLUSIVE CONTEST

No ARC, but still pretty impressive. This has the Fight the Fuglies Starter Kit containing: a personalized, signed copy of “Touched by an Alien”; a pen; a signed can of “Everhold”; all in an exclusive “Alien Tango” tote bag. Completing the ensemble are 2 cover flats for “Touched by an Alien” and “Alien Tango”, “Touched by an Alien” and “Alien Tango” posters, postcards, magnets, an Alien Collective mug.

Hey, if you can't have the ARC, this is a darned good substitute.

Question: You're faced with the largest alligator in, as near as you can tell, existence, and it's looking at you like it's snack time and you're a Snickers Bar. What do you do, dudes & dudettes...WHAT DO YOU DO?
