I’m thrilled to announce THE BRASS QUEEN was picked for the Publishers Weekly Big Fall Preview! As a debut author, it’s an incredible honor for my genre-bending gaslamp fantasy to be chosen from all the thousands of books that are coming out at the end of the year. Thank you to CamCat Books who made all this possible!
Due to COVID-19, the publication date of my novel has been pushed from August to January 12th, 2021. This works out for the best as it gives me more time to work on all the lovely preorder goodies I have planned for you! If you’d like to vote on the kinds of things you could receive, please consider joining my newsletter VIPs. Once a month, you’ll be treated to book giveaways, a Brits-eye view of life in the States, readings from the audiobook, and so much more!
Speaking of the audiobook (see what I did there?), I’ll be heading into the studio in mid-July to start recording the narration. I’ll be live-streaming part of the event, so if you’d like to experience first-hand all that goes into creating an audiobook, this will be your chance! Guest actors will be joining me to add character dialogue and their own inimitable flair to the proceedings.
In the next few weeks, I’ll be proofing the final layout of the novel. The fabulous fantasy artist James A. Owen is creating bespoke internal illustrations and is currently hard at work on the cover. I can’t wait to see what magic he’ll bring to THE BRASS QUEEN!
