But I will be going away soon, I promise.

Just wanted to let you know that the Book Trailer for The Scroll Thief is in the New Covey Trailer awards this month. I think you can vote. I am not sure how.

It was fun to make and contains the beautiful artwork by Anne Cain.

In other news I think I have (almost) everything sorted to be able to go to PCon this year, although I will have to run away on Saturday early as it is

e_w_h 's birthday. Can't miss that. But Friday night and Saturday day should be possible. Sunday... well, we'll see what happened on Saturday night, shall we? ;)

I have fine line edits in for Soul Fire which I will be turning my attention to shortly and blurb to tweak. I thought I was going to take some time off, but all I did was stress and eat so I'm back writing as soon as possible! MUCH healthier.

I have a new trailer for The Scroll Thief: a Tale of Ithian.

I used a lot of the cover in this one, and tried to clarify what's going on a bit more. Hopefully it works.

Now I really ought to get back to writing...

Yep, I'm at it again.

Here's the book trailer for The Scroll Thief: a Tale of Ithian, which is due out in 24th February, 2009 from Samhain Publishing Ltd.

As with The Wolf's Sister, I'll be updating it once I have the cover.

Current Mood: artistic

So here is a question - what does a writer with a novella coming out in two months do when procrastinating from all the other writing/editing she is supposed to be doing.

Yes, she makes a book trailer.

Quite fun actually. Probably not the greatest ever made but the bug certainly bit me and I will be trying some more in times to come. (i.e. as soon as everything is approved for The Scroll Thief and I am twiddling my thumbs trying to think of things to do so I don't actually have to do work). I have to admit, everyone in my house is sick of the tune now, but I quite like it.

Do book trailers work? I don't know. I did buy one novella because I saw the book trailer and had I merely seen the cover I might not have so its worked for me as a reader. I am easily influenced and watch a lot of tv. But I don't have one of those paint roller thingies with extra edge rollers if you order now! But they do appear to be gaining in popularily. It's also a terrific way of doing some internet promo while you yourself are offline.

And hey, they're fun.

So, without further ado...

Feel free to comment. Yes, it is aimed at a particular market. Why do you ask? :D

eta: I wanted to add that I don't yet have the cover but when I do I will be changing this to include it. Any other tweaks will also happen then.
