Good evening, Sailors! And a happy International Talk Like a Pirate Day to you all! 

A lot has happened since I last updated you all on the progress of Storm Song. Our dice giveaway is well underway. One week in and we have 61 entries currently for the chance to win the three sets of goodies! Those referral entries are really paying off for some of you... I’m telling you, guys. Find some friends that you can convince to buy this book and you can set yourself up for a nerdy bundle of goodness. The contest ends Sept 30th so get a move on! 

On the news front, there’s been some fun things happening. A lot of you may have already read the latest Inkshares blog with a question answered by those of us in the top 10, but if you haven’t... Check it out here

Also, you can see an interview that I gave to Three If By Space over here and one given to Alastair Luft over here ! Both interviews were amazingly fun to give, and I’m so thankful that I was given the opportunity to talk about the book and my background with both of them. 

The biggest news? WE BROKE 200 READERS! 206 as of the moment I am writing this, which puts us just a breath away from 2nd place. I’m constantly amazed at how wonderful you all are, how you always come through for me, how you go out of your way to find new and creative avenues to help me succeed. Thank you thank you thank you.

Upcoming news! This Thursday at 10pm EST, I am going to be giving a LIVE reading of Chapter 6 on my facebook page STORM SONG . Please like the page to follow more updates, but also come swing by on Thursday night. This will be the only place to find Chapter 6 until the book comes out, so don’t miss your chance to find out what happens next to your favorite fledgling pirate!

Thank you all! I adore each and every one of you!
