The Scottish Prisoner Is Now Available!

THE SCOTTISH PRISONER was released on Tuesday, November 29th — very exciting! Amazon, of course, has it available, as do most of the other buy-links below. If you should happen to want your book signed, though—you can order it from The Poisoned Pen bookstore. Please write your desired inscription in the Instructions field at checkout when placing the online order. (Click here for detailed instructions.) The Pen is my local independent bookstore (like me them independents!), and handles autograph requests for ALL my books (they also keep all my titles available in hardcover, trade paperback, mass-market, and audio—UNabridged! {g}). I go by and sign stock for them every week or so.

And here are buy-links from other retailers:

February 1, 2012

The State of the Wicket – February Now, we’ve been getting a lot of mail, Facebook comments, tweets, and so on, asking about the status of Book Eight, the short stories, etc. So I thought I’d give you a quick run-down of what-all I’ve been doing, where it all is at the moment, a short peek at everything, and—most importantly [g]—when things will be published. For starters, I’m very pleased to announce that The Scottish Prisoner was released on November 29th, 2011. This release also includes a “teaser” chunk from Written in My Own Heart’s Blood (aka Book Eight, or MOHB (aka “Moby,” which is how I refer to it for convenience. I don’t _think_ it will be white, but it will certainly be a whale of a book [cough]). The teaser includes several scenes about different characters. Now, I do normally work on multiple projects at once; it keeps me from getting writer’s block, and makes me generally more productive. I also think it’s entertaining to write the occasional [...]

Diana's Fan Fiction Policy

You know, I’m very flattered that some of you enjoy the books so much that you feel inspired to engage with the writing in a more personal way than most readers do. Both for legal and personal reasons, though, I’m not comfortable with fan-fiction based on any of my work, and request that you do not write it, do not send it to me, and do not publish it, whether in print or on the web. Thank you very much for your consideration.
