We have a theme

[kinzel]

The theme this week is Saltation, apparently, what with the Theo-tweet going on at Baenbooks ... and now with the dreaded "Amazon can do it for you cheap" letter arriving according to several readers...

"Dear Amazon.com Customer,

As someone who has purchased or rated Partners in Necessity: Agent of Change / Conflict of Honors / Carpe Diem by Sharon Lee or other books in the ( L ) > Lee, Sharon category, you might like to know that Saltation will be released on April 13, 2010.  You can pre-order yours at ..."

And so there, it *is* getting to be time. Remember, if you need to convince someone about Saltation there's a great PW review on exhibit over at amazon.com ...

"Blazing into their 12th Liaden novel, Lee and Miller prove they can still deliver elegant variations on the theme in this coming-of-age story, a sequel to 2009's Fledgling. ..."

Saltation is  ... available to pre-order from your favorite Indie store, including Pandemonium, Uncle Hugo's, Childrens Bookcellar, Borderlands, and at Powell's, and at most Indiebound stores ... and it is...

...and that's as far as my correspondents went -- thanks all, for the help -- has anyone seen it on sale in France, Spain, Japan, or elsewhere?


Another theme is rain. Yep -- rained all day yesterday, raining now, supposed to rain later, and of course we have flood watches. Me? With some luck the books that were *NOT* ready yesterday at the printer will be ready today -- that'd include The Cat's Job revision and two reprints of other chapbooks.

Now to tweet, and then call the printer...

Great ... in a day filled with deliveries sliding backward it is good to see some coming the other way!

I also got a similar notice of earlier arrival.
