Sometimes book promo isn't just about selling books, it's about reminding yourself that you did this thing you are immensely proud of and now you get to share it with people.

My surgery ended up being A LOT more expensive than I was quoted. I also have all the books I intended to sell at StokerCon this year before my plans were dashed. So I’m selling signed copies of SLEEP ALONE (new and old editions) and SOMETIMES WE’RE CRUEL. Details in thread. Please share!

Paperbacks of Sleep Alone, Sometimes We’re Cruel, and the new edition of Sleep Alone surrounded by bookmarks and stickers.
