The first of my Floodtide guest blogs and interviews is up, this one at Breaking the Glass Slipper.

What I have somewhat miscalculated in scheduling promotional posts is that my recollection was that the Bella Books pre-order links went live a month before release day. Nope, they don't go live until the first of the month of release month. So you can currently pre-order the hard copy of Floodtide from various online retailers (Barnes & Noble, Amazon, etc.) but you can't yet pre-order it directly from Bella. And you can't yet pre-order ebooks because Bella reserves ebook sales for their own website for the first month after release.

I may have been mixing up Bella pre-orders and review availability on NetGalley, which I also understood to be a month before release, but I keep checking there and haven't see it yet, so who knows. This whole thing about trying to promote a new release using mainstream SFF protocols and small press procedures is confusing.

I anticipate fielding a lot of confused questions from would-be readers who don't understand why they can't pre-order the books yet, or pre-order from their preferred vendor. Sorry for having contributed to that confusion in any way.
