Nicki Styx Is In The House!

The big day has finally arrived! I went to my local Waldenbooks yesterday, and look what I found under the "What's Hot" section!

Dead Girls Are Easy has finally hit the shelves! It was a surreal moment to see it there, let me tell you. I had to rush home, grab the camera and Captain America (a/k/a my "official photographer"), and rush back for pictures.

Do I look happy or what? :)

Afterward, we had a big family dinner, complete with champagne, and I opened a really "spooky" gift that one of my dear friends sent me - it just happened to arrive right before everyone got there. Perfect timing, huh? It was a really great day, and I just had to share it.

Congratulations, Terri!

I saw it yesterday, too, in a Books & Co, faced out. :) Can't wait to read it!

Aw, thanks, Honey! It's like... surreal!

Hope you enjoy it! :)

I looked today and couldn't find it in my town. But my oldest son found it and bought one. He told everyone in the bookstore that he knew you. I can't wait to get a copy for myself!

Terri, I pre-ordered your book months ago through a link at RWAOnline, and it came today!!! Cool cover - love it! I plan to start reading it tonight. :)

Terri Garey said...

Hi, Tammy! *waving* After two years of hearing me talk about it, I sure hope you like it!

Terri Garey said...

Olivia, what a great young man you've got there! :) Tell him to hurry up and read it and bring it over to you!

The timing of when it's put on the shelves in different bookstores depends entirely on the bookstore staff, you know?

Of course, you can always do like my daughter, and ask them if they have any in the back room... that usually gets them going!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hi, Ellen!! Hope you're enjoying it - I'll be over here chewing my nails while you finish... :)

Congrats, Terri! I can't wait to pick up a copy of Dead Girls to have for my very own :-)

Hey Terri -
There I was at my local B&N during my lunch hour, and what did I see FACE OUT?

Yes, I have it, my very own copy of Dead Girls...

Congrats!

Hi, Beth! Hi, Pam! I really hope you guys enjoy it - it's really weird to think of people finally reading it, if that makes any sense! :)

I found it today, Terri, on 8/30. It looked wonderful just sitting there next to other books!!!

Congratulations! Hey, my hubby told me today that he saw something posted at a Waldenbooks (I forget which one) about an upcoming booksigning for you. Email me the details if you get a chance.

Congratulations again!
