Guest Post: Ian Sansom, Author of The Norfolk Mystery

Today we’re excited to feature a guest post from Ian Sansom, author of The Norfolk Mystery.

You’ll probably want to know some background and stuff, yes? Who I am, where I’m from. That sort of thing?

Really?

Well, it’s just the usual. Birth. School. Work. And … Well. Not yet. Not quite.

Where am I from? By county, and by country: out of London, through Essex, into Gloucestershire, Cambridgeshire, County Antrim, France, Switzerland, back to London, Oxfordshire, back to London, County Down, Warwickshire. So, in summary: England-Ireland-France-Switzerland-England-Ireland-England. Does that help?

Guest Post by Lou Aronica: Differential Equations & Magic Realism

Guest Post by Lou Aronica: Differential Equations & Magic Realism

Today, we are excited to bring you a guest post from Lou Aronica, one of the authors of Differential Equations, where he tells us about the inspiration for the book and more about magic realism. Aronica is a New York Times best selling author and President and Publisher of The Fiction Studio and Publisher of The Story Plant. You can learn more about him here…

Differential Equations, the novel Julian Iragorri and I just published, had numerous sources of inspiration. Julian’s family story was one, as was the fact that both of us had some mind/body experience. Another key source of inspiration were the magic realists. I knew that Julian and I could collaborate well when I learned in our first conversation that both of us considered Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s One Hundred Years of Solitude a favorite novel. Further conversation revealed a shared affection for Isabel Allende, Jorge Amado, and others. I’d wanted to write a magic realist novel for some time, and with Julian I would finally get the chance to do so.

Reading on Vacation & Book Expo America 2012

What kind of books do you like to read when you travel?

Hubby and I are headed to New York City for Book Expo America. Over the last couple of weeks, I’ve discovered so many books I want to read this Summer and it seems like I’ve been downloading a new book every day to take with us. I’m pretty sure my eReader is just as over-packed as my suitcase!

Here’s a sneak peek at what I’ll be reading and writing about for the next few weeks.

New Releases and eBook Gift Ideas: December 6

New Releases and eBook Gift Ideas: December 6

*Happy Sigh* It’s the middle of December and this is my favorite time of the year! The air is crisp, the city is decked out for the holidays and people I pass on the sidewalks seem generally happy as they go about their day. I’ve been listening to my Christmas carols for a few weeks now and the only thing that could make this season better for me would be finally getting our first real snowfall of the season.

New books also make me happy. I bet they’d make someone on your gift list happy, too! Luckily, it’s New Release Tuesday and the list of potential gift books just keeps growing.

I hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving weekend! My husband and I went to visit my side of the family and had a blast visiting with everyone and playing with our nieces and nephews.
