Barnes and Noble

Today I received a phone call from Barnes and Noble in Nashua, New Hampshire. I have been invited to a local authors' book signing September 16, 2007. Of course, since B&N doesn't work with my distributor I have to bring in my own books. But that's okay. Whatever it takes to get my books signed and sold at B&N. I have had several book signings at B&N when my old now defunct publisher was with Ingram and Lightning Press, and sold a number of books of my novel The House On The Bluff, the first book in the Legacy Series. Now, I will have not only the first book in the series but the second book as well to offer. The Gatekeeper's Realm is Book 2 in the series and I am hoping that those who purchased the first one will be eager to read more and purchase the second book. There is a third book to the series which is not in print as yet, but that shouldn't be too long in coming. Anyway, that's my thoughts for today.

Oh, I should mention that on August 13, I will be hosting on my blog, Kim Baccellia virtual book tour. Hope you'll drop in and get to meet Kim

My Virutal Tour

Well, it's the second day of the tour, we had the Fourth of July off. Went to my brother's home in Duxbury, to enjoy the Fourth with relatives and friends. My husband and I brought 50 giant hotdogs and buns to match, others had a combination of great dishes for everyone...not to mention the more adult drinks for the grown-ups and soda for the kids. My brother has an olympic size pool in his backyard and the kids were having a ball, diving and swimming. Splashing the adults was out. Anyone who did that was immediately removed from the pool. While I was sitting at the "bar" minding my own business and drinking a cup of punch...non-alcoholic...I was stung by a bee. Of all the people there, the bee made a direct dive toward me. Wouldn't you know it. Last year I was the only one who tripped over his newly inlaid patio and hit my head on the red bricks. Everyone thought I had really knocked myself out. But I have a hard head and all turned out well. Can't wait to see what happens next year. Well that's it for now, have to get back to the tour blog.

Virtual Book Tour

Today was the first day of my virtual book tour. Don't know how it's going to turn out, but the people, who are conducting this tour, PumpUpYourBooks, are doing a great job getting interviews for the tour. What I am hoping for is that people who drop by will find my book interesting enough to want to read it, and the first and third books as well.

Have to get back to the blog I'm at today. Will post again later. Thank you!

New Release - The Gatekeeper's Realm-Book 2-Legacy Series

Hi, Everyone!

I would like to announce to the group that the second novel in the Legacy Series, the Gatekeeper's Realm has been released in print by Write Words, Inc., Cambridge Books and is now up on Amazon.com. Haven't received my copy yet, but looking forward to holding it in my hands.

More good news: I just received a great review from Once Upon A Romance for the third book in the series, Adam's Point., which, according to my publisher, will be released in print after the Sarah's Landing Series.

Here's a preview of the review:

A brooding apparition hangs over the House on The Bluff on Adam’s Point. People are missing and the spirit that has taken control of the house isn’t about to give them up easily. While Ethan and Abigail are used to dealing with the vagaries of their house and the usual spirits that inhabit it, they have no idea how to deal with this new spirit who seems to be holding the house and its occupants hostage.

As the house both attracts and repels the inhabitants, Ethan, Abigail and their guests begin their search for their missing friends within. As they search the mystery surrounding the house starts to unwind as portals into other worlds open up. Can they survive long enough to save those who are trapped?
