So not only is the Kindle book out now, but I’ll be doing a live twitter chat with Publisher’s weekly tomorrow. It starts at 3 PM Eastern. I’ll be responding to @PW_Connect but every tweet will contain #PWThursday. So if you are on Twitter, jump in.
And this give away goes live on Friday.

My new novel is now available on Kindle. The hard cover will be in stores everywhere on October 27th.

Hey all, Jack Wylder here with your series II update.
I’ve been somewhat absent/ elusive here lately because a) I’m busy as all get out with my awesome new job as a marketing ninja and b) there hasn’t really been all the much to report until now. Last week we received the first batch of coins. Important to note is that that just means half of the designs and NOT half of all the coins. (So I have boxes and boxes of Stranger & Stranger and Milo coins, but no PPUFFx tags yet.) The remaining designs have apparently shipped out yesterday and are even now winding their way across the country to the CorreiaTech Texas Outpost (Code name Hippo River). Lighters and stickers are slightly delayed but should be in hand shortly. So while I have sent out a few of the smaller orders, the bulk of the shipping is still to come in the near future. To complicate matters slightly, I am leaving town Sunday on a business trip so I won’t be able to do any shipping until late next week. (And if anyone is going to be at OpenWorld shoot me an email at CorreiaTech1911 AT gmail DOT com) After I return I will dedicate all of my free time after work each day to packing these up and getting them out to you as quickly as possible. I will do a third update to let you know when the bulk of them have shipped. I have temporarily closed the swag store- I can’t deal with more orders coming in right now! Also, if you ordered anything off the store, your order will be shipped in the order they came in- I have to get this back order situation handled. On the subject of the store, we are no longer going to accept payments from PayPal. We can detail exactly why in a later post. I’m not really able to spend much time on the book of faces, btw, so if you’re tagging me there I might be slow to respond (don’t take it personally it’s not you, it’s me. Sorry about the delay, Jesse!)
I think that’s it for now. I’ll update when there’s something new to say.
Here’s a shot of the final actual Milo coin to tide you over:
I am going to be signing at Uncle Hugos in Minneapolis on the 27th. Because they do a lot of mail order, I fly in a day early so that I can sign all the books to be shipped. The cool thing is that on the order form you can specify any personalizations. So if you want a bunch of books for gifts, made out to specific people, or you want me to draw a cartoon in it or something, and you can’t make it to one of my events, this is the best way to get it.

They’ve got all of my stuff in stock, but Don emailed me yesterday to tell me that he’s got his copies of Son of the Black Sword in. So if you want personalized copies of the new one, and you aren’t going to be at any of the other tour stops, this is the best way to get them. It is better to get your shipping orders early, because last year we had a bunch of people order Nemesis wait until a couple of days before the actual signing. Because of that I ran out of books at the actual signing. So if you want personalized copies shipped, order soon so he can get more in in time.
I used to sell and ship personalized copies myself, but that just got way too unwieldy to do out of my house. (many of you had not so positive experiences with my 11 year old daughter “shipping department” 🙂 ) So I’m glad Don offers this.
Mike Kupari is my coauthor on the Dead Six series. His first solo novel, Her Brother’s Keeper, will be out in a couple of weeks (I was one of the alpha readers, it is really good, fun space opera). This short story is a prequel and just went up on the Baen page.
