Ancillary ARCs!

Well, look what came in the mail today!

So, I’m going to be giving some away. I’m not sure just how yet–maybe just something as simple as a random drawing. I haven’t decided yet.

But look at it! It’s a real, physical book that really exists!!!

Book! Book book book!


(Okay, it's not all that many years since your children were small, so you know that joke. Until the book comes out, I can't say, "Read it.")

That looks pretty.

[ann-leckie.livejournal.com]

I agree! I keep looking at looking. :)

[hawkwing-lb.livejournal.com]

Colours! And everything!

Congrats! Having a copy of your own book that you can hold in your hands must be such a high. When does it come out?

[ann-leckie.livejournal.com]

October 1!

[themachinestops.livejournal.com]

Yay!

O frabjous day!

[ann-leckie.livejournal.com]

Calloo callay! It is so exciting!

[gillpolack.livejournal.com]

Excellent! We all get to read it soon, very soon...

[ann-leckie.livejournal.com]

Not long at all! And yet it seems like it'll be forever and also like maybe I'm dreaming it. :)

[gillpolack.livejournal.com]

I wish this weren't normal, but it is. I never really believe in my books.

[ann-leckie.livejournal.com]

That is actually very comforting. I know it's not just me!

[gillpolack.livejournal.com]

We need to find magic formulae for belief.

I can offer you a guest blog post nearer to release, however, to get the word out, if you want.

[ann-leckie.livejournal.com]

Oooh, that would be awesome! Thank you so much! Email me at ann@annleckie.com if you like, with any details. :)

[carl-allery.livejournal.com]

Woohoo!! Congratulations. :) Do you get a cover for framing?

[ann-leckie.livejournal.com]

Hah! That would be awesome. I am working up the courage to ask if I can have the file with no words on it so I can get a what-do-you-call-it made, to stick on the outside of my phone....or my laptop. Or, you know, the original mockup I have as my computer wallpaper is really only a very pretty sketch, compared to this, I could change it....

Yay, Ann!

*dabs at eye* I remember when you were a wee sprog on the OWW, now you have a *BOOK*!!! Can't wait to read it!

[ann-leckie.livejournal.com]

Ah, those halcyon OWW days! I wouldn't have gotten here without them. :)
