Published Author On Board
Mickey Finn:
Are you a professionally published author and a member of the board?
Tell us about yourself and your work.
Richelle Mead:
I'm going to wait for someone else to go first. I've already rambled about myself around here. :D
Mickey Finn:
Don't make me cut & paste your ramble. ;)
Richelle Mead:
Mickey, you crack me up. All right. Everyone keeps telling me to break out of my introverted personality and put myself out there if I want to sell books.
I'm an urban fantasy writer. I sold my first novel SUCCUBUS BLUES and two sequels last November, and it'll be published in March 2007. It's about a succubus with romantic problems (that whole inconvenient soul-stealing thing) who investigates a creature killing immortals in Seattle. In January, I decided to quit my teaching job and write full-time. I started another book called DARK SWAN (title to be changed) about a shaman. It sold in January + one sequel and won't be out until after SB#2. All of my books rely heavily on mythology and have a campy sense of humor (my succubus' demonic boss chooses to walk around in a body that looks like John Cusack).
I'm about 2 months away from an Amazon listing. The website in my sig will give you more on the books, plus a review from Jim himself! *swoon*
I had to learn a lot about the publishing world to get here, so I'm happy to answer any questions folks have.
Priscellie:
*laughs* That sounds hilarious! You'll have to let us know when it's released--I'd love to read it.
