I think that happiness is… being gifted with a cover for your first novel that perfectly encapsulates EVERYTHING inside it. Flux have done something amazing here, and I’m so proud to have my name on this book.
My Thoughts:
I love the delicate tattoo on her arm.  Just beautiful. And I’m very curious about the bottle she’s holding.

Book Description:

Freak. That’s what they called seventeen year-old Donna Underwood in high school after a horrific fey attack that killed her father when she was just a child. Her injuries and rehabilitation resulted in magically enhanced strength, thanks to the iron tattoos branding her hands and arms. As a child of the alchemists, she is both blessed and cursed with a magical heritage that permeates her life with duty and sacrifice.

Now, after ten years of wishing for a normal life, she finally has to
accept her role in the centuries-old war against the darkest outcasts
of Faerie: the Dark Elves. Aided by a gorgeous half-fey dropout, Donna must race to save her best friend’s life – even if it means betraying the secret of immortality and confronting the very thing that destroyed her family.

Well here it is, the cover for the upcoming St. Martin's Press release of Hungry For Your Love.  My short story I Heart Brains is included in this anthology and I'm very excited as this will be the first book I'm featured in that will hit the bookshelves.

Cool and creepy.  I’m intrigued.

My Thoughts:
I’ve never been a fan of the folk arty covers from the Sookie series, but this is definitely in keeping with that style.

Charlaine’s publisher wants to include a question-and-answer section with Charlaine in the book, to match the one we’ve done with Alan Ball. THE SOOKIE COMPANION is scheduled to hit the shelves February 2011, so time is important. You’re invited to send in your questions (limited to three) to askcharlaine@gmail.com from June 17 through June 26. (After that, the email address will be inactive.) Sending in your questions doesn’t guarantee they’ll be included. Please add your name and a valid email address to each question in case Charlaine selects your entry. All questions should pertain to the Sookie Stackhouse series.
