Double Indemnity: First Look and Blog Tour Dates
Double Indemnity releases on January 26. Here’s a sneak peek and a list of upcoming blog tour dates, filled with eBook giveaways. I’m also holding a Goodreads giveaway, where you can enter to win one of two signed paperback copies. Happy reading! -MK
Excerpt:
On the fourth night, Nathan seemed different. He smiled when Sam arrived and continued his lazy backstroke. “I was wondering if you were coming.”
“Of course.” Sam nodded and went into the house to change. When he came back, Nathan was still idly circling the pool. Sam took a running leap, cannonballed into the cool water, and popped up only a couple of feet from Nathan.
“Quite an entrance.”
“Yeah, well, what can I say? I’m a drama queen.” And then, for no reason whatsoever, he splashed Nathan right in the face.
Nathan wiped the water from his eyes, which he then narrowed dangerously. “You splashed me.”
“Hell yeah, I did. And I’ll do it again.” So he did.
“Do you seriously want to play this game?”
Sam shivered, and not because of the coolness of the water, which had warmed considerably. Nathan’s predatory smile grew.
“You better swim fast.”

Blog Tour Tips for Newbie Authors: A Hopefully Helpful Retrospective
As a newbie author, publicizing your own work can be a daunting enterprise. Every author has their own list of things to do before the launch of a book, but I thought I’d share mine with you today, focusing specifically on the ubiquitous ‘blog tour.’ Many of the tips below were either given to me by my extremely helpful published friends or learned the hard way during the release of Double Indemnity, my first full-length novel. This list is far from comprehensive—I’m sure there are tips I’m missing and still have to learn, so please share your own strategies in the comments!
