We got some great news today

the print version of our first volume of the American Satyrs series, both OF Crimson and Collars and To Collar and Keep will be in print for January 2011! Audra and I are extremely excited about this because it will be the first print release with Total E Bound, and we both just LOVE the quality of the print with them.

So the dualogy will have both Of Crimson and Collars (ben's book) and To Collar and Keep (harley's book). Both of them are very close to our hearts and we know the readers that have read them love them too. SO very excited about it.

Our next stories in this series will be (in no particular order) Alexander, Sebastian, Corbin and Iago, and a prequel story about Ben's parents, Inez and Nicolai. Who else is excited?

And I think Ill do a contest for a print version for a lucky reader in the new year!

We have news!

Audra and I have some awesome news!

We just signed with Louise Fury of the L.Perkins Agency. Thats right, we have an agent, and a damn awesome one too! Very excited to be working with her, and Audra almost shit herself when she found out. So excited on this side!

Steampunk Styles for AAD: AWESOME military Jacket

Looking for that military look for AAD's Steampunk Ball this year? Yeah I thought so. Well I found some awesome clothes, and Ill be sharing links with you guys much in the coming months. Today, I wanna talk about this STUNNING military jacket that is SURE to be the crowning piece to your costume.

The design of this jacket is amazing. Its got a great cut, sure to show off

either your corset, ruffled shirt or cami tank, and the Navy matches so much. The buttons are silver, and are well placed, and the entire jacket is lined with satin as to be soft on the skin. it is 100% cotton and can be machine washed. So why is is really awesome? Because its the PERFECT starter piece. Add wings, brooches, chain or epaulets to make it your own style. As you can see, the back is also done in the steampunk Military style and will support any back style design you might want. the jacket measures 24.5 inches and is $49.95. You can pick it up HERE.

So that's Choice number one here. I love it and I hope to see at least one of you guys wearing it this year.

Night After Lady Jane

Ooh wow did I have fun! Last night I was one of the authors featured at Lady Jane's Salon in NYC at Madame X's. I was nervous as hell because I had to READ and I'm not that good at it. So I drank. And drank. Then I was up. I was surprised that considering my buzz, I actually told a pretty good, coherent tale. What did I read? I read from You Burn Me, early on, the scene with Xxieda and Rhys when she found him in the bathtub, nekkid and passed out drunk. Apparently It was met with a bit of laughter, which was awesome.

Im excited as well because I got to wear my new costume to the event... Shall you like to see as well? Well here... Isnt it pretty? I designed and hand sewed the bustle, and designed the hat and the jewelry I wore, and was met with very positive comments. I love this skirt too, got it from ChisStar (duh) and Im considering the Black one too.

So yes, I had a good time, and Im looking forward to my next event, November 13th in Middletown NY, hometown signing, and the last of the year. Im hearing noises about a Salon before Anachronism but more on that once I know more.
