TWCP Book makes BFS Long-List. ;D

The Writers' Cafe Press author Sue Dent has officially, (and with much surprise to Sue Dent, as she didn't think her book qualified,) has made the British Fantasy Society's long-list for 2010! You can read more here.

Pluto Award Nominations listed!

Not one but two are the numbers I see
Nominated authors from TWCP!

So go check out my blog post for the entire list! ;)

Sue Dent and Stephen Rice.

Of course last year was our own very special (cootie infested) Frank Creed! ;) Or maybe that was the year before last. Nevertheless, a TWCP author.

New Sue Dent interview!

New Sue Dent interview and chance to win Never Ceese. Sorry but you have to pay for Forever Richard dagnabbit! How else will I be able to write if I don't make any money? ;)

Okay so go here for your chance.

I met K Dawn Byrd on Facebook after joining a group called Christian Fiction Gathering. If you're on FaceBook you should look this group up. One of the first Christian Fiction groups I've found on FaceBook that treat non-affiliated Christian authors with equal value as affiliated ones. You certainly don't find that everyday. :)

There's a question you have to answer for your chance to win but it's fairly easy.

I stumbled across this just a few minutes ago at www.britishfantasysociety.org.uk and I must say that even though I've no idea what this is a list of I do know that I like it. Forever Richard in the top twenty of some very grand books.

Perhaps placement on the list is superfluous yet being on the list isn't. Do read Maryann Boo's outstanding review of Forever Richard when you get the chance. :) Then go read Forever Richard or Never Ceese (paperback version) if you've not read Forever Richard first. It's a series after all. I'd certainly want you to get the most out of it.

Do keep in mind that though this is accurately labeled a Christian vampire/werewolf series, you'll only see recognition for it from general market proponents. You won't see anything about this overwhelmingly successful Christian series on any site designed to bring attention to works published by Christian authors. My publisher doesn't pay to be affiliated with CBA or ECPA and therefore I'm shunned by the very market that should herald such an endeavor. I've been turned down for entry into award ceremonies for Christian fiction, not allowed to list on blogs for ECPA affiliated books or rather "the best in Christian Fiction" even though both of my books have been approved for distribution to the Christian market. Christianbook.com won't list my books and the discrimination goes on and on.

General Market Christians rock though and so I'll stand over there with them. I'd stand with the others except they won't let me. ;)How nice.

But yes, believe it or not, there is a Christian vampire and werewolf story already out there despite what another market would have you believe. It just appeals to all Christians of faith and not a select few.

Do enjoy the review and the story!

Chapter by Chapter discussion of Never Ceese!

The discussion of Never Ceese, chapter by chapter, has begun. Sooooo . . . what are you waiting for! Go! Go! Go! And tell your dang friends 'cuz I don't have any. ;)

*Sue checks to see if she's evoked any sympathy to see that she hasn't.* Drats! I've gotta work on that. ;)

British Fantasy Society reviews Forever Richard!

A horror book in essence, both Never Ceese and Forever Richard caught the eye of The British Fantasy society's MaryAnn Boo . . . and I couldn't be more pleased. Coming from a smaller press than the "big dogs," I'm absolutely knocked on my butt every time I get a review like this. MaryAnn couldn't possibly know how much this means to me. When no other first line reviewers cared to notice, she did.

FOREVER RICHARD
By Sue Dent
The Writer’s Cafe Press, £9.99
Review by Maryann Boo

This is the long awaited sequel to Never Ceese, Sue Dent’s first foray into the world of Richard, a Vampire and his Werewolf sister, Ceese. In this book, Sue takes us back to the early days, where we meet other members of Richard’s and Ceese’s family.

We are subsequently brought back to present day and meet Richard and Ceese, now both cured and doing their best to . . .

You can read the rest HERE!

Okay. The part about it being a trilogy was my fault. LOL It is still a series but if I don't get the reaction I need from sales to survive, it could be a trilogy. :) That's not saying I'm not getting a good response that's just saying . . . it's pretty much up to y'all.

I'm SO excited!

Derek Gilbert interviewed me on his Voice From the Bunker POD-radio show--he plugged: Author Frank Creed talks about cyberpunk, Christian fiction, why he writes and for whom: http://www.pidradio.com/?p=434What's really cool? The best selling Christian Fantasy novelist since CS Lewis, Donita Paul, listened to the show and commented!

Another Derek Gilbert plug:

P.I.D. Radio » VFTB: Christian Cyberpunk Author Frank Creed
Source: www.pidradio.com
CHRISTIAN and cyberpunk are two words that don’t usually appear in the same sentence. Thanks to author Frank Creed, we may soon see them together on a regular basis.

OH yeah.

Forever Richard gets all Pirate-ey tom-arrrrrr-ow!

That's right. So pay attention. MaryLu Tyndall has informed me that she'll be givin' Forever Richard away on her blog. I suggest you be gettin' yurself over there if yur wantin' to read it without partin' with the cash. I don't know what got into her but I'm figurin' a bunch of you don't care so long as you don't have to put out the cash for somethin'. Arrrrrrr!!! And just to show ya my good nature, I'm throwin' in one of them blasted hard copies of Never Ceese. If you buy Never Ceese you best be buyin' the paperback or else you'll walk the plank.

Trust me.

If I have to, I can find a plank.

So there ya go! Now run over to http://www.crossandcutlass.blogspot.com in the morn to get yur chance to win or pop over tonight to get a good seat. Don't know if that's required but it sure couldn't hurt. Pirates can be pretty sneaky I hear.

What arrrrrrrr ya doin'?

I said go!
