Happy Friday everyone! And Happy New Year! Don’t forget to visit me at the Scribes, where I ask the question – What do I know?
A few weeks back I promised to share the details of my latest sale. Now that the paperwork is all in order, I can tell you this:
The Undead Space Initiative will be coming in 2012 from Pink Petal Books.
I am very excited that this book found a home and so quickly. If you want the details behind USI’s journey, visit me at the Scribes when you’re done here.
Now that I have two books sold, I have to face the next step in the publication process – editing! And after that promotion.
I’ll admit it – I am not very good at tooting my own horn. I realize that I need to get over that and fast, so expect to see me making the rounds at various blogs. Thank you to all my generous friends for use of the their blog space.
And, I assure you, I intend to keep working on my next book. So many things to do… so little time.
But I wouldn’t have it any other way!
Have a safe and wonderful New Year! See you on the flip side of the calendar!
Oh, Yay!!! Make sure to take care of yourself during all this. 2012 is going to be a beautiful year for you.
Thanks Tam! I will definitely try my hardest not to burn the candle at both ends. But it’ll be hard – since I need to write another book.
A wonderful way to start the New Year, Casey! It seems to me you’re already an experienced self-promoter, certainly much more so than I am–still battling growing-up dictum of: Children should be seen and not heard! Tough nut to crack.
I’m looking forward to reading your books, and thanks for sharing your journey.

Thanks for stopping by ZsuZsa. Maybe that is my problem too, I grew up hearing the same thing!
Awesome, Casey! Congratulations and no worries about the promotion. You learn quickly that the squeaky wheel gets the grease, but too much grease makes for a slippery slope…love those mixed metaphors, LOL. You’ll find a balance.
Thanks PJ! I hope to learn from you and J Monkeys and do as well as you both have.
Go, Casey. So excited that USI now has a home!
Thanks Joy! I can’t wait to see what kind of cover they design for the book.
You go girl, keep on trucking. Network, network, network. Make lots of noise, connect everywhere you can. Run for congress, oops, going overboard here. I am thrilled for you Casey.
Thanks Gail! But, I’ll pass on politics. There are others who are better suited for it than me!
Congrats again, Casey. Best of luck with it.
Thanks Callie. And congratulations to you on your latest sale!
Congratulations, Casey … you go girl! You are on a roll. Best of luck.
Thanks Gerri!
I really liked your statement, keep writing no matter how weird or strange!!! That is so encouraging. My brother wrote a really interesting story about werewolfs going to the moon. I’m going to tell him about your site.
Great, thank you! If I can sell a story about vampires on Mars, then there has got to be a place for werewolves on the moon! Thanks for stopping by, Mary!
Now I’ve got the Pink Panther song in my head! Congrats, my love. You’ve set the bar high for the rest of us — and that’s a very good thing! Can’t wait to see what Devil’s Advocate is all about.
I know I have that song stuck in my head now too. Drat!
How dare you say you know nothing of promotion! I’m totally offended. Have I not taught you anything, child?
I’m sorry Madame Fusco! Please don’t beat me! Seriously, you are right. I have some very fine marketing advice – now I need to start following it! 🙂
You better not offend that Ms Fusco! You have a great group of fans/friends, myself among them, who will do everything we can to help you on your way, honey! Congratulations! What a great way to ring in the New Year!!!
I know. I know. I’m hanging my head in shame! Thanks OS! Have a wonderful 2012!
Happy New Year.
Thanks Nancy! Have a wonderful new year too!
