    And that’s a wrap …

    Well, the blog tour for Tangled Threads has finally wrapped up. It was a lot of work, but it was a lot of fun. I’m slowly but surely mailing out all the books with the various giveaways, so just be patient with me about that.

    And I just want to say thanks to all the bloggers/sites that hosted me and to everyone who took the time to read and review the book. I really, really appreciate it. 😉

    But now, it’s time to switch gears and focus on my next release, Touch of Frost, the first book in my Mythos Academy series. I’ve got tons of stuff to post about the series, including cover blurbs, cover art, and more, so stay tuned for that. I’ve also got some updates about the Elemental Assassin series as well.

    Since I’ve got so many things going on, I thought that I would post my release schedule for the rest of the year. Here it is:

    July 1: First Frost e-story, Mythos Academy prequel story (this one should be up for pre-order on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, etc. soon)

    July 26: Touch of Frost, Mythos Academy #1

    Sept. 27: Spider’s Revenge, Elemental Assassin #5

    Sept. 27: Haints and Hobwebs: An Elemental Assassin short story in The Mammoth Book of Ghost Romance

    Nov. 29: Kiss of Frost, Mythos Academy #2

    And that’s a wrap for now.

    For a good cause …

    Every year, I donate a few items to Brenda Novak’s annual diabetes auction. The auction is underway, so I thought I would list what’s up for grabs from me this year. Please note that these are three separate items:

    1) Signed copies of my entire backlist, including the Elemental Assassin books to date and the three Bigtime books, along with signed bookmarks

    2) An eARC of Spider’s Revenge, the fifth book in my Elemental Assassin urban fantasy series that’s out on Sept. 27.

    3) An eARC of Touch of Frost, the first book in my Mythos Academy young adult urban fantasy series that’s out on July 26.

    Pretty cool, huh? There are tons of awesome items to bid on, everything from signed books to jewelry to trips to critiques from editors and agents. So what are you waiting for? Get on over there!

  • Touch of Frost bookmarks …

    I’ve finally gotten bookmarks made for Touch of Frost, the first book in my Mythos Academy young adult urban fantasy series that’s coming out on July 26. Huzzah! Here’s a look at the front of the bookmark. Pretty cool, huh? 😉

    As always, the bookmarks are free to readers, librarians, bookstores, or whoever wants one. However, I do ask that folks send me a self-addressed stamped envelope (SASE) with two first-class U.S. stamps on it in order to get the bookmarks. This helps me out with postage costs. If you’re interested in getting some bookmarks, e-mail me.

    Here’s the back cover copy for the book:

    My name is Gwen Frost, and I go to Mythos Acad­emy — a school of myths, magic and war­rior whiz kids, where even the lowli­est geek knows how to chop off somebody’s head with a sword and Logan Quinn, the hottest Spar­tan guy in school, also hap­pens to be the deadliest.

    But lately, things have been weird, even for Mythos. First, mean girl Jas­mine Ash­ton was mur­dered in the Library of Antiq­ui­ties. Then, some­one stole the Bowl of Tears, a mag­i­cal arti­fact that can be used to bring about the sec­ond Chaos War. You know, death, destruc­tion and lots of other bad, bad things. Freaky stuff like this goes on all the time at Mythos, but I’m deter­mined to find out who killed Jas­mine and why — espe­cially since I should have been the one who died …

    Touch of Frost will be out on July 26. First Frost, a prequel e-story to the series, will also be out in July as a download, although I don’t have the exact release date on that one yet. I’ll keep you posted.

    Kiss of Frost back cover copy …

    8 Comments

    Okay, I’ve gotten the back cover copy for Kiss of Frost, the second book in my Mythos Academy young adult urban fantasy series:

    Logan Quinn was try­ing to kill me. My Spar­tan class­mate relent­lessly pur­sued me, swing­ing his sword at me over and over again, the shin­ing sil­ver blade inch­ing closer to my throat every time. A smile tugged up his lips, and his ice-blue eyes prac­ti­cally glowed with the thrill of battle …

    I’m Gwen Frost, a second-year warrior-in-training at Mythos Acad­emy, and I have no idea how I’m going to sur­vive the rest of the semes­ter. One day, I’m get­ting schooled in sword­play by the guy who broke my heart — the drop-dead gor­geous Logan who slays me every time. Then, an invis­i­ble archer in the Library of Antiq­ui­ties decides to use me for tar­get prac­tice. And now, I find out that some­one at the acad­emy is really a Reaper bad guy who wants me dead. I’m afraid if I don’t learn how to live by the sword — with Logan’s help — I just might die by the sword …

    Sounds pretty cool, huh? Or maybe I’m just a little biased. 😉

    By the way, I let Wheezley, my significant other read this one, and he called it my girly angsty book. LOL. So make of that what you will.

    Anyway, Kiss of Frost is out on Nov. 29. I’ll be posting the cover art when it becomes available.
