Threadwalkers has been out for just over a year, and I so appreciate all of you who’ve taken the time to read it (and leave reviews– it helps others find the book, so thank you!) and who have come out to my events and the like. I really, REALLY appreciate you all!
Back when the book came out, I had several different kinds of requests for “bonus” or other material, and one of the most frequent asks was for a Threadwalkers audiobook.
For all of you: I HAVE GOOD NEWS.
The Threadwalkers audiobook is available NOW!
You can find it in the major audiobook retailers listed in the image (Audible, Amazon, iTunes). Yay! And if you aren’t already signed up for Audible, I have a gift for you:
You can try Audible for free for 30 days, including a FREE download of Threadwalkers! [CLICK HERE]
If you happen to read the audiobook, it would be fantastic if you could leave a quick rating. Those really do help folks find the book, especially when it’s new.
It’s a bit quieter these two days, but we’re making up for it with quality content!
I wrote a guest post over on SuperCaliReader about dealing with writer’s block, which is probably my most-asked question. [read more]
Here’s an interview with Butterfly-o-Meter Books where you can learn fun things like why I don’t have a unicorn in my backyard. [read more]
Upping My Vintage Style Levels
I’ve been looking to add purple (especially lavender!) to my wardrobe for several years, and pastel yellow and pink are my favorite colors to wear, so you can maybe imagine how excited I am to see all three of these colors turning up this spring in stores!
I also took an extra level in Vintage Style with this fab necklace from the 60s (an etsy find!) and a dolman that’s all paisly pink and periwinkle goodness.
It felt like January took roughly 11.3 years to get through and then I blinked and it was March 1st. WOW.
Because time got away from me, there are a couple of links that you may have missed.
Author Interview
First, I had a fantastic time chatting about Threadwalkers with Jennifer Holmquist, aka Magic Cat Jenny, over on her YouTube channel:
Book Review
Second, Time Travel Nexus published a lovely review of Threadwalkers earlier this week, which you can read here.
Don’t forget you can always find reviews, media, and bonus content on the Media and Bonus Content page of this site. 🙂
(Vitural) Book Tour
Third, I’m going on (virtual) tour! Starting next week, I’ll be hanging out on various book blogs in the form of guest posts and interviews, and there will be many more reviews! If you want to follow along, here’s the planned schedule:
So I’ll be seeing you a lot next week as I try to stay on top of these. I’ll also link back to these sites each day as the posts go live so they are easy to find.
#BYJoStraw Project
In other, non-Threadwalkers news, I’ve started a new instagram account to document a project I’m doing this term for my master’s program. I was challenged to find something to promote biodiversity, so I decided to give up single-use plastic straws! In the US alone, we go through an estimated 500 million straws A DAY. They can’t be recycled and it takes each one 200 years to decompose. YIKES. I ordered a glass straw from Simply Straws, and honestly, it’s been SO much fun to use! I take it with me everywhere in its cloth sleeve, and it’s got a cleaning brush and everything. Here’s my straw in action:
If you want one of your own, you can use my referral link to Simply Straws for 25% off your first purchase. In the spirit of full disclosure, I will let you know that I also get rewards when you use the link. So basically we both save money and there’s less plastic pollution. It’s a win-win-win.
So there’s the full update! In theory I’ll be back on Monday with links to FUN THINGS! Woot!
Where: I’ll post here, and on social medias including my Facebook page!
I can’t tell you anything about it except that I like it, and that I really like how it goes along with the story itself. (I know, that’s totally not helpful to you at all. Sorry!)
