Happy Friday! Well, it's been a busy release week for Alien in Chief! And I'm behind (on everything, but who's counting?) and about to leave for the out of town portions of book tour, so let's get caught up, shall we? We shall!
First off, my signing at the
Poisoned Pen was a great success. Laughs, good books, and cake were shared by all, including those watching via the interwebs. Missed the signing or watching moi live? Not to worry!
LiveStream has you taken care of! And you want to watch this LiveStream, because I make not one but TWO announcements that all y'all will want to know about. (Really. You will. Trust me.) And if you somehow have not gotten your copy of Alien in Chief (or any of my other bookie wookies yet), the Pen is a great place to do so -- they ship all over the world and I'm part of their
Author Signing Program where you can get your books signed and personalized simply by ordering via phone or email.
Speaking of running my yap, I also did a podcast with the
Two Gay Geeks wherein we drink a lot of wine and I share a lot of things, including what spin-offs I'd like to do from the Alien series.
Speaking of Alien in Chief, more reviews are in! See what
Books 'N' Kisses,
Under the Covers,
Book Girl of Mur-y-Castell, and
Gizmo's Reviews thought of it!
Then, head over to
Suvudu, where you can read all about how I don't want to arrested because of my browser history and things of that nature.
Speaking of reviews, we have folks catching up all over the place. So, check out what
KD Did It and
Books, Movies, Reviews! Oh My! thought of Alien Collective.
Then head over to
The Heroine Bookstore where I'm thrilled to be the
Author of the Month and see what they thought of
Touched by an Alien. Keep THB bookmarked, because there will be some cool stuff happening over there later this month. All y'all might want to get onto their newsletter right now, as a matter of fact...
And speaking of Touched by an Alien, hit the
If List and cast your votes for who should play what parts in that far off Hollywood dream. Hey, can't hurt, right? Plus you'll get to see who sees the characters like you do...and who doesn't.
Alien in Chief isn't the only new book I've got for you. For those who don't e-read or who just want Installments 1-3 of the Martian Alliance Chronicles in one place, your wait is over. Alliance Rising is available from all the usual suspects (and though we sold out at the Poisoned Pen, they'll have more copies later in the month), and I'll also have copies with me on my next book tour stops.
Speaking of which, come see the me, have cake, and get those bookie wookies signed! Remember -- books make great holiday gifts!

Speaking of great books, have you gotten your copy of The X-Files: Trust No One yet? It's one of the 7 Short Story Anthologies You Need On Your Bookshelf according to
allwomenstalk. See if you agree with their list and if you need to fill in your collection!
Speaking of filling your collection, check out what's coming in the first half of 2016 from
Rebellion Publishing imprints Solaris and Abaddon, including the 3 novella anthology featuring my Holmes story, A Study in Starlets, in Alt. Sherlock Holmes: New Visions of the Great Detective.
After that, head over to
Slice of SciFi and see what I think of the second season of The Librarians now that it's 5 Episodes In. Love the show? Have a favorite character, or one you hate? Haven't watched it yet or made up your mind? Join the discussion over at Slice!
And now it's time for some science!
New Scientist and
Cosmos both have articles about and photos capturing the formation of planets around a distant star! Not insinuating that all y'all should pay attention to this because it might have a payoff later in the Alien series or anything...but I'm not insinuating that it won't, either.
Well, amazingly, that's it for today. But, as always, more's on the way. However, for the next two weeks, it will be a sporadic more. Those of you who want to keep close tabs on me should friend me on Facebook, since that's probably where I'll be checking in the most.
So, enjoy the downward slide into the weekend, see some of you over the next couple of weeks, and let's be Alien in Chief readers out there! Peace out, my li'l gangstas, and I'll catch you on the flip side!
Love,
Gini

Hey There! It's time for an announcement -- I have a brand new romantic suspense novel, Plush Life, coming April 1, 2016.
Speaking of pre-orders, they're what matters tons and tons to authors (indie and traditional, and I'm both) and publishers. So, in addition to Plush Life, remember that pre-orders for Camp Alien and Alien Nation, from your favorite bookstore or online retailer, will be doing your girl a total solid. Also, pre-orders for alt.sherlock.holmes: Three New Visions of the World's Great Detective are also available right now. Physical format will be available for this, too, coming in April.
Remember also that the Kickstarter for Unidentified Funny Objects 5 is still going strong, and you can still get in on it. I still have one tuckerization hanging on -- will you be immortalized in "The Problem With Poofs"? Or will you just get an awesome anthology of funny SF/F before everyone else? Or some other award level, 'cause there are lots of them? Only you know, so head over and see what tickles your fancy!
