We're getting closer and closer to the big day. With the official release date of Locked Within set for November 6th, I am having my book launch on November 8th. All going well, it will be held in Hughes and Hughes in Dundrum. It should start at 6:30pm and there'll be plenty of food and drink provided.
This is the perfect time to pick up a copy of the book. Launches are a fun night out in and of themselves as far as I'm concerned, and I'll be there signing books for everyone.
I've got a public Facebook event set up if anyone wants to add themselves that way.
The launch is open to anyone who wants to come along, so please drop in to say hi, and bring some friends!
As well as the launch, there will be a lot of other things going on in October and November to celebrate the release of Locked Within, not least of which is the release of the Kindle edition in October. I'll be posting here on topics like reincarnation, the urban fantasy genre itself, and sharing some of the music I used as inspiration while writing the book.
Beyond that there will be a blog tour throughout the month of November, starting on the 6th and continuing on. I'm still looking for more hosts if anyone would like to have me. I'll also be hosting a virtual book launch on Twitter on the 9th, and towards the end of the month I'll be organising a private chat for people to ask me questions about the book, the setting, the characters, and the rest of the trilogy.
If anyone has any topics they'd like me to discuss on the blog, let me know and I'll see what I can do. It's going to be a busy time for me and I can't wait! I'll publish a schedule for the various posts and online events soon.

Locked Within Book Launch
Paul Anthony Shortt believes in magic and monsters. In ghosts and fairies. The creatures that lurk under the bed and inside the closet. The things that live in the dark, and the heroes who stand against them. Above all, he believes that stories have the power to change the world, and the most important stories are the ones which show that monsters can be beaten.

I'd love to have you do a guest post on my blog, Paul. And the Dublin launch sounds like it will be a lot of fun!
ReplyDeleteIt's going to be the party of the year. Wish I could use that as an excuse to cross a continent and an ocean.
ReplyDeleteSounds like the launch will be great fun -- and you will be busy for two months! Congratulations on the release.
ReplyDeleteKaren, thanks! I can't wait for the launch. I've got at least 70 people RSVPed so far, and almost 300 other invites awaiting a reply.
ReplyDeleteMirka, maybe you could stop by the virtual book launch?
Helen, thank you! I'm still trying to work out how to schedule all my blog posts coming up to the launch itself!
