I will have an actual report of activities later, but I wanted to say HI! to everyone.  I am home again and only slightly the worse for not sleeping for a week.  What can you do?  So many things to do, so little time.   I can't even do a quick and dirty high points--it was all so wonderful.  More on all that later, including an attempt at explaining just what a lypo-shark would be, and perhaps a poll on just what is the point of vampires having sperm?

But today is the official release date of The Cipher.  Wow.  It's been almost a year an a half since Path of Blood was released.  Can hardly believe it.  The happy dance (hamster dance?) is that it's getting good reviews.  In fact, I got back home and found an email that said it had been reviewed here and Wow.  Just Wow.  I am still blushing.

One of the things that I keep hearing about this book is that it is very different.  And then I think, really?  How?  And is that a good thing?  And this review gets at a little of that.  Because I hadn't analyzed or thought about it much.  I just thought, wow this was fun to write!  And it was.  I was going for fun, rompy adventure, and I think maybe I nailed it.  So let me know how you like it.

There will be more later today about WFC.  I will be name dropping like crazy--sorry about that, but I had many squee-fangirl moments and I mean to tell you about them.  And then too, I got to meet in person some of YOU and again SQUEEEEE! 

I also met my new editor for the first time (she is awesome) and my former editor for the first time (she is also amazing).  I have been so amazingly lucky with the people I get to work with. 

And now, anon.  I have to get checking on my day-job email and see what's expected of me. 

More soon . . . .
