Author Copies!
Posted by rwday on March 3, 2009
I got home from the hair salon and there was a booky-looking box on my porch. My author’s copies of A Strong and Sudden Thaw plus a bonus, a copy of Steve Berman’s Vintage, which is one of those books I’ve been meaning to order for a long time. It’s been a very yucky day, so I think I’m going to cuddle up with it and lose myself in a ghost story. Thank you, Steve!
I’m really impressed with the production value of Thaw, btw. The print is easy to read and clear, the binding seems strong. It’s a bit taller than the Iris edition and thinner, which I think is a good thing from a sales point of view. There really is nothing like holding your book in your hand. The only experience I can relate it to is the first time you hold your baby. And in some ways, it’s even better – your book is almost certainly not going to pee or vomit on you. ;)
