Hey readers and friends, I don’t know about where you are but summer slammed down on us May 31! That’s about par for the high desert but we didn’t get much advance notice. The weather folks say we have a big dome of high pressure over the southwest so we broke the 100 mark yesterday with more of the same coming. I am ready to party with a cold drink in my hand and the cooler blasting.
Step in and join me. Who all loves werewolves? Vampires and zombies? Demons from other dimensions? That’s the stuff of Urban Fantasy which is one of my fave genres and the one we are featuring today. We have a good bunch of new and familiar authors lined up to share their UF stories with us and I’m going to do a few informal polls to pep things up. (with prizes, natch!)
I’m opening the doors a little early because I have an aerobics class from 8:45 to 9:45 and should be back right around 10:00 which is our bewitching hour here, or 12;00 “high noon” for our east coast folks. I guess it is good we are not on smellavision here LOL as I expect I will be sweaty. But exercise is part of my plan to get in shape for a trip I plan later this summer, one that will probably be a bit taxing. More on that later.
Anyway I think we have a few early bird posts up already so take a peak at them and know for sure that more will be coming. My alter ego Deirdre O’Dare will be telling you about her new UF story Catastrophe that came out in late May and some other familiar and new writers will be here too. Be sure to comment to have a chance at our giveaways. No quilt this time but a $25 gift cert from the CTR bookstore and if you watch for the specials you can get enough summer reads to load your reader for that vacation. And of course most of the authors have giveaways as well. So relax and prepare to meet some sexy shape-shifters and follow some kick-butt action because that’s what urban fantasy is all about!
