MeiLin Miranda

Portland, OR

MeiLin Miranda came back from the dead (for serious) to write the fantasy series "An Intimate History of the Greater Kingdom" and the online fantasy western serial "Scryer's Gulch." She lives in Portland, OR with a husband, two kids, two cats, a floppy dog and far, far too much yarn.

    Three boxes of awesome

    Lookie! Crappy cellphone picture, but you get the idea! Somehow, my 11-year-old lugged these three boxes (2 filled with Son in Sorrow, the other filled with Lovers and Beloveds for those who got the 2-book set) into the house. 

    So now I get to schedule the mailing party! yay!

    I have been asked about the high-res graphics photos. I'm workin' on it, kids. I've had an enormous confluence of an election cycle in which I have a candidate client, ongoing sick kids (one after the other on a continuous loop) etc etc blah blah blah where's my frickin' stuff, I know. I hope to have it out soonest.

    Paperbacks on the way here!

    Yay! I just ordered the paperbacks, some for you guys and some for me to have for sales--very few this time. Usually I keep a case of 20 lying around, but I'm staring at a bunch of "Lovers and Beloveds" that have been lounging around the house giving me lip and eating all my Doritos and watching Judge Judy, so no more of THAT, I tell you.

    Also I finally found flat mailers I could afford for the posters. I have a silver sharpie, too, and I'm not afraid to use it. So pretty quick here packages should start flying out the door.

    In not-at-all-related news, I have a new book out. It's ridiculous summer reading fun, an erotic romance called "The Mage's Toy" in a new line of erotic romance novels I'm doing called "Aria Afton Presents." (psst: I'm Aria Afton.) It's $2.99 and should make you giggle and d'awww a little bit. In other words, it's nothing like the History. :D

    More later, folks!

    Drumroll, please...

    Look what jut arrived! eeee! The cover this time looks good. I need to go through the interior, but so far it looks great. It's from CreateSpace. The books for direct sales, pre-sales (you guys) and Amazon.com will be printed by CreateSpace, and international Amazon sales and brick-and-mortar sales will be printed by Lightning Source.

    You can't tell from the photo how vivid the color is. It's gorgeous. And I compared the spines; book one looks very nice next to it on the shelf. :) So! I'll be ordering all the copies next week! yay!

    Thank you! I may recruit a whole bunch of folks. I seriously hate mailing stuff and will need the push.
