WOO HOO! Got another great cover...

[Yasmine Galenorn]

...Penguin is very very good to me...they've done better by me than any of the small publishers I was/am with.

For those of you who've been reading my work (or those who just want to see a pretty picture), check out the cover of my newest book that's due out in January--they've done a wonderful job on it (and my scanner doesn't get all the nuances of the blues, so you can't see the diversity of them, but it's still gorgeous). I am so lucky, they've done such a good job on all my covers!

I just finished the galleys/page-proofs on it, btw, and am about to start book four, which I'm calling A Harvest of Bones, hence my lack of time spent in the usual forums I go to, including MW, but I'll be around off and on.

That is lovely, you 'bright new star' you. ;)

Congragulations, kiddo. :bouncysmi

[Cev'aq]

It's beautiful! :)

[Living Dawn]

Cool cover.

[mara]

I really like it..congratulations. As soon as I'm finished with the books I've started I'm going to read one of your fiction books. It's been a long time since I've read just for the pleasure of reading a good story.

[Xander67]

I like the optical effects!

neat how the Cover's Background turns into a 3d object...... :)

[morrigen]

That's really lovely...any bookstores in Australia going to stock them?

[tygherrayn]

Oh .. beautiful!

I kept trying to place your name ... until I realized. Embracing the Moon! I've not yet had the pleasure to read it, but it's on my list. Still have to get through Wicked though.

There's a bookstore in Australia that carries my NF, they might order my fiction too if you ask: http://www.mindbodyspirit.com.au/auth/g/galenorm.htm (at one tiem they were spelling my last name wrong, so be aware...). I know that my books are available around the world--I've gotten letters from people from pretty much every continent (except Antartica *grins*) about my work...so I'm not sure how they're getting hold of it.

I just sent an email to my publicist at Penguin to see what she says. She may be able to give me a heads up on stores over there.

Looks that way, I guess! (I never made it to bright new star in the metaphysical world, I think I was a bit too outspoken for some folks ~grins~ but my 'sass' apparently works in the mystery field. Woohoo!).

Hey, I love those quotes...they're fun...but more than that, I love the work. And it *is* work...I just sent off the manuscript for Murder's Only Skin Deep (the first in the India Ink series) last Tuesday, the galleys/page-proofs for MUAMM yesterday, and I'm starting book four of the Chintz 'n China series tomorrow. But you know, I wouldn't be happy just sitting around...I'm a workaholic--I admit it.

Hugs chickie,

~smiles~ Yeah, I switched over to my first love a couple years ago, though my final NF book just came out this year (Totem Magic). I started out intending to be a novelist, finally earned my break into fiction, and am quite happy there now.

ETM...a lot of folks like it--I basically wrote the book I wished I'd had when I was starting into the Craft.

I'm so glad things are going so well for you, Yaz! And I love that cover! :hugz:

[Jenne]

Beautiful! Can't WAIT to read it! :thumbsup:

[Yasmine Galenorn]

Beautiful! Can't WAIT to read it! :thumbsup:

And I can't wait to start in on the next one--calling it A Harvest of Bones. Which reminds me, I have work to do today to get ready for tomorrow--Samwise starts his new contract then, and I start the new book, and today we need to clean house and whatnot, and I need to organize a few notes and answer email and answer people in my own forums on my site.

Huggles! (And Murder Under A Mystic Moon is a fun, good book--a number of surprises with the characters for you!).

Beautiful cover!! :) I'll see if I can find that book somewhere, I've started reading like crazy!

Reading is so good for most people (I'm leaving out the exceptions who will surely pop up and scream "NOT ME" if I don't qualify my statement ~grins~).

It opens up so many new vistas and ideas and entertains, teaches, comforts, makes people think....

LOL, I love reading too. Most writers do, but we usually don't get enough time in which to read...sigh.

[Koehnae]

Wow! I think cover art should be considered a true art form... and this cover should be in the gallery. Its fantastic! As a person who tends to judge a book by its cover (hehe), I would definetly pick this out of the crowd.

[Nighthawk]

Umm, that is beautiful.. and is that an eagle claw necklace??? It sure looks like one I have somewhere..... beautiful cover, and sounds like a good read, I will have to buy that one..

[DebLipp]

Congrats, it's lovely.

[Calyx]

Yaz,
It's beautiful! :colorful: Actually, all of them are beautiful (I checked).
congrats to you, hon! These look like a very entertaining series. But I have to start with the first one, first, don't I? ;)

*trots off to Amazon*

Actually....*grins*...no, not an eagle claw. A claw of a legendary beastie in the mountains (my imagination but very believable given this area). Yeah, it is a good cover--all three have been gorgeous.

LOL...technically, you don't have to--I had one reader start on Legend of the Jade Dragon, and she said she had no problem reading it first, but you will get a better grounding of the characters with Ghost of a Chance. Some folks like that better, others liked JD better...I always say the typical author response (very true): I like the one I'm working on now the best. ~grins~

Yas

[Nighthawk]

Wow... it sure looks like a familiar claw..I will just have to read these books..they sound wonderful.... right on...

[Navalina]

That cover looks fantastic! Now I really want to read the book. :P

I might ask my local "Border's"if they can order them in....they're Penguin, it shouldn't be too hard for them to get hold of....

And I'll have a look at that link...thanks :)

[blugirrl1]

it has been forever and a day since i actually read anything just for the sheer fun of it. I am going to have to pick up the series. looks very good. :)

[Autumn]

Very very pretty!

My editor said that they have worldwide rights, so you should be able to order it in Australia...if you have Borders, they should be able to get it.

it is a beautiful cover!
congrats!!!
