A literary outing

This Saturday past I had the pleasure of going to a triple booksigning at Murder By The Book.


Check out these links for new works from Jaye Wells, Kimberly Frost, and Martha Wells. They are a smart, funny group of authors, and I particularly appreciated their comments about a writer’s prerogative in world-building within the realms of fantasy, supernatural, and paranormal.

Authors: your characters, your stories, your rules.

I bought Kimberly’s new novel there, then came home and figured out how to buy Google books through Murder By The Book’s web site and load them onto my Nook. That enabled me to buy the first of Jaye Wells’s series. Then Tom bought two by Martha Wells; there just seems to be some difficulty loading them to his Nook. Hopefully we’ll get it all figured out soon. Being able to buy through an indie store removes my last anxiety about using an eReader for some of the books I buy. The authors get royalties, and I’m supporting a locally-owned store. (This doesn’t work with Amazon’s Kindle, however.)

By the way, if you’re curious, the two Wellses aren’t related except by profession.
