Order your signed GHOST SHIP before April 30
Uncle Hugo’s is now accepting pre-orders for signed copies of GHOST SHIP by Sharon Lee and Steve Miller. You must pre-order here

Your credit card will not be charged until your book has actually shipped.

If you want to receive a signed copy of GHOST SHIP, you must pre-order, even if you entered a pledge for a book.

And you must act NOW: Pre-orders are open through April 30, 2011. That’s just 12 days.

GHOST SHIP will be published in early August 2011. Cover price is $25.

Uncle Hugo’s offers a flat $6 shipping fee in the U.S.; two GHOST SHIPs travel for the same six bucks as one GHOST SHIP. Overseas orders will have to have their postage figured on a case-by-case basis at the ordering site.

Yes, you may add other books to your GHOST SHIP pre-order.

Thank you all.

More fun with ebooks

Just upload Misfits: Adventures in the Liaden Universe® Number Fifteen to Barnes and Noble and to Amazon.com. Did the housekeeping on sharonleewriter.com I meant to do yesterday. Deployed the InfoDump. Still managed to avoid the SRM bookkeeping, though.

I did forget to put in the InfoDump -- if you have a chance, we'd take it kindly if you -- you know who you are -- would post a reader review on the bookstore of your choice for the newly-uploaded chapbooks -- or for any of our books, really. Thanks in advance.

And now -- it's what time? Sigh. Now, a sammich, I think, and so to bed. Though not, may I say, early.
