Easter Chicks

Sigh.

It seems like only yesterdays my chickies were tiiiiiiiiiiiny balls of fluff, peeping and running around the office.


























Take a look at them now.













































































They do grow up so fast, don't they? Obviously, they are no longer in my office but in their nice coop outside, as my office was beginning to smell like a barnyard. I've been watching them grow up, and though they look nearly the same, I have started to pick out some different quirks and personalities. (Yes, chickens can have personalities.)


The little girl on the right is the friendliest of the bunch, as in she is the one who is always sitting on me and wanting to be close. She is paler then the others, having more white feathers, so she is easily recognizable.


























Remember Trouble? The chick who decided I was her mother hen and protested loudly when I put her back in the box?



This is her now.



























Not much has changed. She is the biggest, reddest, bossiest chick of the group, and the one who doesn't mind if I pet her. She is also the first one to the feeding bowl, and the first one to snatch any treat I offer. The reason her picture is so close was that she was sitting on my knee, pecking at the camera when I was trying to take it. Nope, nothing has changed at all.



























This girl, though you can't really see it, has a speckled white belly, and she is the explorer of the bunch. While the rest of them are content to hang around, sitting on me or pecking grass when I let them out of the coop, I'm constantly having to herd this one back to the others. She always looks so annoyed when I do, though, peeping indignantly all the way back.



So yes, that is my flock. I might be a crazy chicken lady now, but at least they keep me amused.


The girls.

The Lost Prince special teaser

Sooooo, I've been given permission to post this one time only teaser of the newest Iron Fey book, The Lost Prince. This is Ethan's story, and I hope you enjoy it! Without further ado, here it is:

***


My name is Ethan Chase.

And last night, I found out that my sister, whom I hadn't seen in nearly thirteen years, was dead.


Worse, they say she was found with Puck's dagger plunged through her heart, and a note pinned to the blade.


The note only said three words...


HAPPY APRIL FOOLS!


:P

Ahahahaha, oh the look on your face! I love this holiday!

The Immortal Rules contest: Vampire for a night

Guess what arrived on my doorstep today?


A box of pretty hardback copes of THE IMMORTAL RULES!

























Vampire chickens, the new threat to humanity.




Sooooo, of course this begs the question: what am going to do with them now?


Well, the answer is obvious, I think: CONTEST!


So, what will you have to do to win one of these shiny, signed hardbacks?


Read on...



PHOTO CONTEST for a signed, hardback editon of THE IMMORTAL RULES


Yes, a photo contest! In The Immortal Rules, the main character, Allison Sekemoto is a tough, wary, katana-weilding vampire. So, I want YOU to take a picture of yourself as a bad-ass vampire. One that might haunt the ruined, post-apocalyptcic cities of The Immortal Rules.





























Use whatever you want: fangs, trenchcoats, fake blood, katanas, whatever! Create a scene from the book if you've read it. Be creative. Have fun with it. Own your awesome, vampire bad-assery. Then on April 24th, I will pick my favorite 3 and send them a signed hardback copy of The Immortal Rules.

A few rules:

1. Keep it clean. Blood and gore is fine, just remember this is a public blog and any R-rated content will be disqualified.

2. Leave me the link in the comments. Extra points for any place you share both the picture and the contest. (Facebook, twitter, your blog, etc.)

3. Contest is international. Ends April 24th.

4. Have FUN. You get to play a vampire. (C'mon you know you've always wanted to be one. I know I have.)



Okay, then, show me your Vampire-ness!

Announcing The Iron Legends and The Immortal Rules trailer!

Hey everyone!

I promised NEWS today, didn't I? Well, you might've already heard in on Twitter, but I thought I would give it a proper post here. It is very exciting! Well, I think it is exciting.

The NEWS:

So, for those of you who lamented that the Iron Fey e-novellas Winter's Passage and Summer's Crossing were not print books, Harlequin TEEN has heard your cries.






























On August 28th, for the very first time, Winter's Passage and Summer's Crossing will be available together in an anthology entitled THE IRON LEGENDS. Not only that, they will be released with a brand new novella called Iron's Prophecy, along with some exclusive additional content you can't find anywhere else. Like perhaps the first chapter of the new Iron Fey book, coming this Fall.


So there's my exciting news. Spread the word, let me know what you think, and keep checking back for cover reveals and other exciting things.



ALSO!


Check out this totally AWESOME trailer for The Immortal Rules, created by the talented folks at Mira Ink.






Way cool and creepy, yes? I love the dark, futuristic feel it has going for it. What do you think?
