It's Just Crazy Enough to Work...
02/07/2013
Okay, so it has come to my attention that there are a lot of Paranormal Romance (PNR)/Urban Fantasy (UF) books out there...I mean a lot...I mean a lot, a lot...I mean, you have no freaking clue how many PNR/UF books there are out there right now. I have pretty much been exploring book blogs in just this genre for 2 days now and I can tell you I was utterly gobsmacked by the sheer volume of books that I am up against for your reading time.
SO! I have come to the conclusion that I need to do something to stand out from the competition. Something just crazy enough to work...My plan is thus:
If 1000 copies of my book (both dead tree and e-book copies will count) are sold by my birthday (July 7th).
Then I will get a tattoo of David's stylized paw print on my shoulder.
My publisher is even willing to pay for the ink!
So tell one and all, and don't be afraid to evangelize.
