Happy Thanksgiving Month!
It's the real start of fall -- October is always sort of summer and sort of fall wherever I am, but November is Fall All The Way!
And that means it's Thanksgiving Month! Thanksgiving has become my favorite holiday for a wide variety of reasons. And what I've been thankful for since Touched by an Alien published is for all of my readers and fans -- all y'all complete me.
This month we have a great book to be reading, and so much more, so let's get to it, shall we? We shall!
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! |

November 2021 READ THIS! Selection |
|
|
The READ THIS! Selection for November 2021 is:
The Day Before By Liana Brooks
Gini's Take: Clones, murder, and a twisty plot -- what more can you ask for from a SF Mystery? A rollicking ride and a book you can't put down, and this book delivers all of it.
About the Author: Liana Brooks writes science fiction, fantasy, and romance for people who like fast ships, big guns, witty one-liners, and happy endings. She has lived almost everywhere in North America and currently resides in South Carolina. She is best known for her super villain romances starting with EVEN VILLAINS FALL IN LOVE and the enemies-to-lovers space opera series, Fleet of Malik. You can find Liana on the web at www.lianabrooks.com or on Twitter as @LianaBrooks. |

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 writing like a crazed wolverine (and yes, all the other projects aren't distractions, they KEEP me writing) so...
Fear not, Kitty & Company will be back later than you want but sooner than you think...
I promise.
P.S. I'm expecting to have some good news on this front sooner as opposed to later, so continue to watch this space for updates! |

| Multiverse was great! Fun panels, lots of cool authors and other creators to hang out with, and special visits from Members of the Alien Collective in Very Good Standing -- thank you for making my first in-person con since moving to Hotlanta so wonderful. Registration is open for next year already, so make your plans to attend now! |

CALL FOR HELP.
Some of my closest friends in Phoenix are stuck between a rock and a hard place. Please check out their Go Fund Me and help if you're able, and share it if you're not. And a big thank you to those who have already helped out! |
|
|
| That's it for today but, never fear, another Update, including the Discord Q&A chat invitation, will be arriving in a couple of weeks!
In the meantime, stay safe and healthy, remember we're all in this together, be kind to one another, give love and support to all those who are on the front lines in any capacity, and let's be readers out there. Peace out, my li'l gangstas, and I'll catch you on the flip side!
Love, Gini |
