We are just under four weeks away from the release of Polaris Rising! I can’t believe it. And to make it even more unbelievable, I am going to have a book signing at BookPeople in Austin, TX on Saturday, February 9 at 2:00 PM!
A book signing! At a bookstore! 😱
If you are local, please, please consider coming. I feel a little bit like one of those MLM people, trying to coerce people into attending, but my nightmare is I show up to a room full of empty chairs. So tell your friends, tell your mom, and heck, tell your friends’ moms. :)
You must buy the book from BookPeople to get it signed, but you can come meet me and hear me nervously ramble for free!
If you are not local, you can still order signed books and BookPeople will ship them straight to your door! Details are available on the event page.
And if you haven’t preordered yet, now is an excellent time. :) Preorder numbers are important for a debut author, so if you’re planning to pick it up on release anyway, it would mean a lot to me if you preordered:
Amazon | Barnes & Noble | iBooks | Kobo | Google Play | BookPeople – Signed!
A million thanks to everyone who has already preordered or requested it from the library or told their friends about it. You all are the best! 😍
I’m doing two things to celebrate being less than a month from release. First, I’ve made some quote cards with tiny little snippets of PR. These will go up on Instagram first before migrating to my other social media.
Instagram is new for me and I’m still trying to find my footing, but here is the first snippet! (I’m not using the built-in embed because it’s terrible, but if you click the image, it’ll take you to the Instagram page with a bigger version.)
Let me know what you think!
Secondly, I’m giving away six ARC copies of Polaris Rising! 🎉🚀🎉
Your patience in reading this far was rewarded!
To enter to win an ARC, here are the rules. Please read them all! Incomplete entries will be ignored.
1. The entry period starts now and ends on January 18, 2019 at 12:00PM (noon) CST. You must be eighteen or older. Open to US and international readers.
2. Leave ONE top-level comment (i.e., not a reply) below and tell me about something positive. It could be a promotion at work, getting to spend time with family, a book you love, etc. Let’s put some happiness out into the world. :) Duplicate top-level comments will be deleted. You are welcome to reply to other comments, though, because those won’t count as entries.
3. Comments must be on the blog post on my site (www.jessiemihalik.com). Comments on Facebook, Goodreads, etc. won’t count.
4. Come back after 1/18 and see if you’ve won! Winners must claim their book. Instructions will be included in the winning post.
I’ll start: In addition to all the publishing awesomeness, my husband got a new job he’s excited about, and I recently read The Emperor’s Edge by Lindsay Buroker. It was really fun. It’s like a high-fantasy Leverage where a determined woman turns a rag-tag bunch of criminals into a team for a crazy plot to save the empire. And it’s free!
