rolanni: (Carousel beauty)

Asyouknowbob, Carousel Sun, the eagerly-awaited  sequel to 2010's smash hit Carousel Tides, will be published in February 2014.

Now, asyouALSOknowbob, Carousel Sun will, like its prequel before it, be published as a trade paperback.  Which is perfectly fine; I like trade paperbacks.  Especially when they have my name on the front cover.  In fact, the only thing wrong with trade paperbacks is that they do not enjoy the "signed edition" status currently bestowed upon Baen hardcovers.  Doesn't seem fair, somehow. I said as much to Don Blyly of Uncle Hugo's, and --

He agreed.

So, here's the deal.  Don and I are working on a way to provide those who want them with signed copies of Carousel Sun.

But that's not all!  We're trying to figure out a system that will allow me to personalize copies of Carousel Sun pre-ordered from Uncle Hugo's (and only from Uncle Hugo's).  Which, if we can pull it off, would be very cool indeed.

Watch this space for details.  This has been a Distant Early Warning; the pre-order page will in no case go up on Uncle Hugo's website before mid-November.

. . .and there you have it.  Is that exciting or what?

Sounds Great. I have a bit over $200 of your signed books in my cart there at the moment. Can always add more though.

Uncle Hugo's ordering system changed a bit leaving me very flummoxed when trying to order Trade Secret. So I called the store. Mr. Blyly very kindly ordered for me. My excuse is that I am an old lady. That's a very good excuse these days I think.

Argh...earworm warning.

For some reason, reading this caused the lines

Here comes the sun, little darling
Here comes the sun
It's all right...

To go running through the little grey cells.

Ah, well, it's cheerful. I'll look it up later...
