Universal Alien is on the Monday, Dec. 1 post, since that's the one for traditionally published. So head over and check out all the cool books, and other things throughout the week, that are and will be listed.

And don't forget, tonight's the night! I'll be at The Poisoned Pen for my release day party, with cake, prizes, and more! And for those who can't make it in person, remember that there will be a simultaneous LiveStream event, so you can be a part of the fun!

That's it for today, but more's on the way! So let's be Universal Alien getting and reading readers out there! See all y'all at the Pen or on the airwaves!

Love,
Gini

Al...Most...There...

Happy Monday! Hope everyone had a wonderful week and weekend, that for those who celebrated it was a wonderful or at least memorable Thanksgiving, and for those who shopped that you all found wonderful bargains.

As we all well know, or should, at any rate, tomorrow is the release day for Universal Alien! And that means the Universal Alien Top 10 Blog Tour is revved up again! Today we have two stops, so head over to Readaholics Anonymous and see what the top 10 places Kitty picked to do the deed, and then hit Books-n-Kisses to see what the top 10 songs Kitty chose for kicking butt. And don't forget to get entered to win your choice of one of the first 9 books in the series, signed and personalized, at each stop, both open internationally.

And while you're there, see what Books-n-Kisses thought of Alien vs. Alien, too.

Then hit Two Gay Geeks where they have an exclusive, and rather rollicking, podcast featuring moi. A lot of fun was had by all and I may have dropped some teasers and perhaps even a spoiler or two (hey, wine was involved) so have a listen and join in the fun!

And, of course, if you haven't already had the anticipation ratcheted up, head over to my Deathless Prose page and check out the prologue and first chapter of Universal Alien!

There's one Top 10 Blog Tour stop still to come, and one more chance to win, but if you missed any of the Top 10 lists, check 'em out!

After you get entered, don't forget to make your plans to attend my Release Day Party and Signing at The Poisoned Pen. Not in the Greater Phoenix Metro Area? Not to worry, we've got you covered. There will be a LiveStream event going on at the same time, meaning you can see the me from any corner of the world you happen to reside in. Party starts at 7pm Mountain (9pm Eastern), so don't miss it, no matter where you are!

It's also Cyber Monday today, so let's talk deals. First up, have you grabbed your Sensational Six boxed set yet? If not, WHY not? It's at the ridiculously low price of $0.99 for six great stories from Six Gals and a Guy, aka Sasha White, Jordan Summers, Marcy Rockwell and Jeff Mariotte, Vivi Anna, Caris Roane, and, of course moi.

My entry in the set is The Night Beat, Necropolis Enforcement Files #1, and right now this boxed set is the only place you can get it. Already have The Night Beat? Not to worry -- in addition to five other great stories of varying lengths, Sensational Six is also the only place where you can get a long excerpt for Night Music, Necropolis Enforcement #2...until it releases in early 2015! Want to see Night Music's cool cover even larger sized? Hit my Premieres page and check it out!

So, do your Six Gals and a Guy a solid and get your less than a dollar copies of the Sensational Six boxed set right here, and get 'em today!

After that, head over to UFO Publishing for another Cyber Monday deal, which includes Unidentified Funny Objects 3, which features my short story, "Live at the Scene". And, you know, I think you can still pre-order Universal Alien even on the Monday before release (hint, hint and all that jazz).

Once you're done shopping, do some dreaming, and head over to Larissa's Bookish Life and see which book series she'd like to see do crossovers.

Then, check out the fact that scientists have discovered ACE!

That's it for today, but as always more's on the way including the release of Universal Alien! Happy reading to all, and to all a good Universe!

Love,
Gini

Sensational Wishes

Hey there! Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and that Monday wasn't too hard on anyone. It's Thanksgiving week in the U.S. and we host lots of family and friends at the Casa, plus you know, I'm on deadline, so this is probably going to be the only word from me this week. BUT, there's still much going on, so let's make sure you don't miss any of it, shall we? We shall!

First up, Sensational Six: Action and Adventure in Sci Fi, Fantasy, and Paranormal Romance is still burning up the charts! Many thanks to all who've grabbed it up already. But for those of you who haven't, seriously, what are you waiting for? It's got 6 great stories of various lengths, from Six Gals and a Guy -- awesome authors Caris Roane, Jordan Summers, Vivi Anna, Sasha White, Marsheila Rockwell and Jeff Mariotte, and moi. And it's a great gift -- for yourself or any other readers on your list. And what a great way to say "thank you" to someone by giving them a great boxed set without breaking your wallet to do it. In fact, eReader News Today made Sensational Six its Book of the Day!

My entry in the set is The Night Beat, Necropolis Enforcement Files #1, and right now this boxed set is the only place you can get it. And that's not all. Sensational Six is also the only place where you can get a long excerpt for Night Music, Necropolis Enforcement #2...until it releases in early 2015! Want to see Night Music's cool cover even larger sized? Hit my Premieres page and check it out!

And how much does all this awesomeness cost you? $0.99. YES! Less than one dollar! So, really, do your Six Gals and a Guy a solid and grab this while it's at this low, low price, because it won't be this low forever, and the set won't be around forever, either.

(Hey, I write fiction, remember?)

Peace out, my li'l gangstas, and I'll catch you on the flip side!

Universal Word of the Covers

Happy Friday! Well, here we are, at the end of the week already. And yet, there's still tons going on that I have to tell you all about before we all race off for the weekend. So, let's roll right to it!

We actually have two stops on the Universal Alien Top 10 Blog Tour today. Well, okay. We really only have one, but I wasn't able to get to yesterday's tour stop on yesterday, so we're getting to it today! Follow that? No? Well then...

First off, head over to Under the Covers where they have the top 10 ways to survive in the Kittyverse. After that, hit Word of the Nerd where they have both the top 10 things you'll never hear Kitty and Company say AND an early review of Universal Alien. Both stops have yet another chance each for you to win a copy of one of the first 9 books in the series, signed and personalized, and open internationally.

There are still more Tour stops to come, and you can still get entered to win at the prior stops as well. Some of the contests are over and some end SOON, so hurry up and get entered to win so you don't miss out!

That's it for today, but as always, more's on the way. The Universal Alien Top 10 Blog Tour is taking next week off because it's Thanksgiving in the U.S. next week and the Casa will be filled with people and I'm still on deadline for Alien Separation and all that jazzy stuff. But I promise some fun stuff early next week before we go to radio silence.

So, everyone have wonderful weekends and let's be Universally Sensational readers out there. Peace out, my li'l gangstas, and I'll catch you on the flip side!

Love,

Universally Yapping

Happy Hump Day! The middle of the week is always nice -- the uphill struggle to get to mid-day on Wednesday, and then the lovely downward slide towards the weekend begins. But, as always, we have a lot going on, so let's hump on over to it.

For today's stop on the Universal Alien Top 10 Blog Tour, we have something a little different. Head over to Lu's Buchgefluester where there's a new interview with yours truly. She asks some new questions, too, so don't miss it even if you've read the yap before. As with all the other stops, you can win a copy of any one of the first 9 books in the Alien series, signed and personalized, and open internationally. This is a German blog, but the interview and giveaway portions are in English, so don't give up when you hit the first paragraphs (unless you also read and speak German, which many of the Alien Collective do, in which case, enjoy it all) and keep on down to the interview and contest entry information.

There are still more Tour stops to come, and you can still get entered to win at the prior stops as well. Some of the contests end SOON, so hurry up and get entered to win so you don't miss out!

Tour the Universe

Happy Monday! Hope everyone had a great week and a wonderful weekend. I had a fantastic time in Los Angeles for the A Darke Phantastique mass signing. Check out the recap from author E.E. King for deets.

I got to celebrate a fun, fast in-and-out trip to SoCal by being back home to see the Cardinals beat the Rams (yes, I'm a football fan, but, seeing as I'm a Cardinals fan, I tend to fly under the radar...but this year, wowza!) live and in person. But there's lots going on, and lots to come in the next few weeks, so let's get to it all, shall we? We shall!

First up, the Universal Alien Top 10 Blog Tour begins today! Head on over to Pearls Cast Before a McPig to see what Jeff & Kitty's Top 10 Vacation Spots are AND get entered to win one of the first 9 books, signed and personalized! Contest open through Nov. 28th.

Every stop has either a new Top 10 List or an interview, and every stop has prizes to be won, so make sure you hit 'em all! And remember to do your girl a solid and pre-order Universal Alien online or from your favorite bookstore, including any bookstore where I'm making a Book Tour stop.


And don't stop there! See what Pearls Cast Before a McPig thought of Universal Alien. Then, check out Bibliognome's Pre Review Ravings and Favorite Quotes/Lines are from Universal Alien.

Next up, see what Books-N-Kisses thought of Alien Research, and what Feeling Fictional thought of Unidentified Funny Objects 3.

Then see which Top 5 Characters Larissa's Bookish Life would like to hang out with!

See any movies last weekend? If you missed Big Hero 6, check out my review at Slice of SciFi to see if you should see it or not. (Spoiler: you should see it.) Agree? Disagree? Join the discussion over at Slice!

Amazingly enough, that's it for today, but based on the fact that the Top 10 Blog Tour is large and in charge, expect to hear from me a lot in the upcoming days. So get ready to start the latest rounds of winning, and let's be readers out there!

Love,
Gini
