For me, it is Neil Gaiman's new book, an enthralling collection of nonfiction essays on a myriad of
topics—
from art and artists to dreams, myths, and memories—
observed in
#1 New York Times bestselling author Neil Gaiman’s probing, amusing, and distinctive style.
It is coming out soon: May 31st! Look for it.
And speaking of new books, Roland crassly writes --
Why not try my Kindle format of my own new book, THE NOT-SO-INNOCENTS ABROAD:
WHAT NEW BOOK ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
Those two books sound about right - yours and Neil Gaiman's. I appreciate his ideas on life and writing. I will watch for it. I'm thinking about giving myself your book for my birthday next month. . .I usually like what you have to say as well and I love some of your characters. You know - McCord, Sammy, Tesla, etc. . .
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed the book, D.G., though I'm not a great fan of fantasy/sci fi. But Roland's writing is mesmerizing. I think you'll like it.
DeleteMay 31 - the same day as The Thing That Turned Me anthology comes out. I'm looking forward to that.
ReplyDeleteMe, too. Glad to hear that Randi is better.
DeleteI'm waiting on one indie author to finish up the latest book in her series. I think it's book 14. Maybe 15. There isn't a release date for it. I suppose she has to finish it first...
ReplyDelete#15 in a series? Wow. I have 9 Sam McCord novels and 6 Victor Standish novels -- they are both interconnected so I guess I have 15 in a series, too. :-)
DeleteLOL. I'm in the middle of so many series, I can't even answer that question. Maybe I should be more organized about my reading, but with 50+ titles loaded on my kindle and another 10 books sitting here waiting, it's hard to find the motivation. ;)
ReplyDeleteI just read the latest Mercy Thompson series and am in the middle of the latest Spenser For Hire novel. The next FILES OF HARRY DRESDEN novel is not due out for awhile. Oh! The latest Longmire short novel is due soon! Great.
DeleteHi, dear friend. I've really been neglecting you (I just left a comment for D.G. that I think he'll enjoy your book). I've been remiss because I've been without an aide for my daughter over the past three weeks. Last week was dreadful, but Monday a new one arrived and she's wonderful. Hope she'll last, especially through the surgery Jen has to have on June 13.
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile...I'm heading over to Kathleen Valentine...
xxxooo your forever friend, Ann
How terrible to be without an aide for Jen for THREE weeks. You must have been beside yourself. I will pray for Jen's surgery this June13.
DeleteD.G. is a she by the way. :-)
Thanks again for the very lovely review for my book! Always your friend, too, Roland
Great post, Roland. I'm waiting for a new indie author to get her edits/rewrites back and finally get the three year project out into the world. It's taken far too long. Hopefully, the author will stop dilly dallying and get the second novel finished quick sharp! :) Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteYou, too, Nicola! Thanks for the nice comment on Kathleen's blog about my book. :-)
DeleteI'm waiting to get my catarcts taken care of so I can read a book again.
ReplyDeleteCataracts really foul our days! I hope the audiobook I sent you will be an enjoyable "read."
DeleteHi Roland - I see Neil Gaiman's promoted around - I really must read one of his books - I'm pretty hopeless at reading ... and read yours which I have here or on Kindle ... I will get there.
ReplyDeleteTake care and all the very best - cheers Hilary
What new book am I waiting for? 'Bunker and other short stories' which is being launched on 1st June. Why? Because one of my stories is in it! (I'll be unashamedly posting details on my blog in due course!)

Hilary:
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed his THE GRAVEYARD BOOK, a spin on the Jungle Book where a baby is raised by ghosts in a cemetery after his parents are murdered. Strange set-up but a lovely book in its way. :-)
Susan:
ReplyDeleteI will be on the look-out for it! My own short story related to THE NOT SO INNOCENTS ABROAD will be in another anthology June 30th -- and I, too, will crassly advertise it here! :-)
