Self-portrait of the Artist With Her Favorite New Book

No, this isn't about a book I wrote. It's one I bought on July 9th from Amazon. This is Crescent, by Phil Rossi. I first listened to the podcast of this book last year, and fell in love. It's a creepy cool science fiction/horror tale about a haunted space station where all sorts of nasty things lurk in the dark. When I heard Crescent had been picked up by Dragon Moon Press for publication, I was very happy. When my copy arrived on my doorstep earlier today, I was jumping with joy. And to show you all how ecstatic I am over my newest addition to my library, I drew this picture.



See? Don't I look happy? If you're into horror and sci-fi, if you like a sexy, scary read, give this book a try. You can find out more about the print book and the free podcast version over at www.crescentstation.net.


PS - that gorgeous cover art is by Neil Aschliman.

Margaret,

I am such the geek about this book. I really loved the podcast, and was so thrilled to hear the book was being published in print. It was great! And yeah, I do try to do special things for authors whose works I enjoy that much };)

Picture it...

My dear Comic Book Goddess, you are too awesome, you know that? I truly hope you enjoyed Future Perfect, and I'm flattered that you ordered me with Mr. Rossi ;)
