I got an autographed copy and that's some excellent writing, so check her...

Hi Reader, Since I finished the first couple chapters of the technical book I've been working on (Up and Running with Aerospike), O'Reilly sent me some money. I promptly spent it and more to get help from PR by the Book on publicizing the Liliana and the Fae of Fayetteville series. In particular, they're ramping up publicity for the next book in the series, Explosive Chemistry. It's in final copy edits with the publisher, and we've settled on a cover design, so COMING SOON! I'll keep you...
