Updates and upcoming events

I'm on Chapter 29 of The Trouble With Demons. I thought I'd be done at 30 chapters. Well, there might be 31; I've just got too much action to fit into two chapters. ; )

And for this week's Saturday Fun Pic, I'll be posting a photo of something that a lot of you have been asking for -- a map of Raine's world. It's framed, drawn on parchment, and is very cool.

I'll be at the Romantic Times Booklovers Convention from April 16-20. On the morning of the 16th, I'll probably blog from home before catching my flight to Pittsburgh. But for the next 3-4 days, I'll be blogging live from the convention. It's my first convention of this kind (450 authors and 3,000+ fans) and I think it's gonna be a blast! And yes, I confirmed with my publicist yesterday, I will be debuting Armed & Magical at the convention's Book Fair on Saturday morning, April 19. The book fair is open to convention attendees and the public. So if you're in Pittsburgh on April 19, you can be one of the few to get your hands on Armed & Magical two weeks before everyone else. ; )

And don't forget about the MLTF Contest -- I'll be drawing a name this Saturday morning for our first winner. Since some of you have read your copies of Magic Lost, Trouble Found multiple times, I thought I'd give you all a chance to replace it with a brand new, signed and personalized copy. Over the next four weeks I'll be giving away copies of MLTF and other book goodies. Just send me an email at lisa@lisashearin.com with "MLTF contest" in the subject line and you'll be entered to win. There will be a total of four winners, with the names drawn on the next four Saturdays. You only have to enter once to be eligible for each week's drawing.

Take care, everyone!
