Hey there!
Welcome to spring? I mean, I guess. It depends on where you are and what your weather is like. Here the weather warmed up for a week to fool all my plants and trees into THINKING it was spring...only to drop temperatures as if to say, "Gotcha!"
But enough about the weather. All sorts of things await, so let's get to them!

READ THIS!
A Book Club by Moi for All Y'all
Welcome to READ THIS! A Book Club by Gini Koch. This is my chance to introduce you to some great authors that I love and know you will, too.
Every month I'll spotlight a book and, even better...every month I'll host a live discussion with the author, that all y'all can join! I know, it's too happy to be true, but true it is! |

There was a LOT of stuff going on last month, and in the months before, and we have a bunch of new folks in the Collective who may have missed some or all of it. So, here's a fast recap of what you can catch around the web featuring moi and moi adjacent. |

Because I get asked this daily (often multiple times daily)...
Yes, Aliens Like Us IS coming, but...
No, Aliens Like Us still isn't ready for Prime Time, but...
I'm using the Virus Troubles to git 'er dun, so...
Fear not, Kitty & Company will be back sooner than you think...
I promise.
P.S. Despite what you'd think, pre-orders are still mattering a whole lot, so even though it SAYS it's coming in 2050 or 3000 or something, do your girl a solid and pre-order this book as soon as the various retailers allow it, please and thank you!
P.P.S. The book isn't available for pre-order in most places at the moment, because it's not back on DAW's schedule yet (because, well, see above). This is the (constant) reminder that, when it IS available, it'll help a LOT if you pre-order it.
P.P.P.S. I think I'm in the last quarter of the book, which is exciting in many ways. It's not a promise, but I have hopes of gitten 'er dun very soon now. |

Love, Gini |
