Two Stormwalker Series Releases Today!!!

Yay! They're here! SHADOW WALKER releases today, along with the HEXED anthology, which contains a Janet and Mick story: "Double Hexed."

In "Double Hexed," Janet and friends are locked into the hotel by a nasty hex, and even Coyote can't get them out of it.

Shadow Walker is a full-length book--Mick is acting strangely, the Magic Mirror is afraid of him, and Janet's grandmother comes down from the Dine Nation and moves in to the hotel. Characters you met in Firewalker (Cassandra, Colby, Gabrielle) return.

See my website http://www.allysonjames.com/stormwalker.html for more information on both.

Thanks to all the Stormwalker fans!!!

On Giveaways

Because I had to cancel a giveaway on a social networking site, due to changes in their policies, I will be giving away the bundle of three books pictured here (Forgotten Sea, by Virginia Kantra; Vampire in Atlantis, by Alyssa Day; and Shadow Walker by Allyson James) to one winner who entered our contest over on that social networking site.

Didn't enter? Didn't win? Don't worry! I'm taking my contests to this blog, to Twitter, and to Goodreads. I will give you all great opportunities to win great prizes. Watch this space. :-)

Shadow Walker Countdown = Month-long contest

To celebrate the release of Shadow Walker, I'm doing a contest with authors Virginia Kantra and Alyssa Day. We're trying to build our fan base on our Facebook fan pages, and as incentive, we're offering:

2. Each week, post on the "Author of the Week"'s FB fan page and win a prize from her.

(My week is next week, the 17th-24th, and I'll be giving away all three of our June books, in the photo here, once they're published.)

Good luck! I'm so looking forward to Shadow Walker's release!!

December updates

I apologize for not updating anything here for a while--we had a death in the family and the last month has been pretty hectic and sad. That said, a couple of things are going on:

1. I sent Tales of the Shareem: Braden to my editor. She still has to accept it, but if she does, EC has a fairly short turnaround, so we should see that out in a couple of months (so cross your fingers she likes it). (It's a novel-length book.)

2. Pending approval, of course, I introduce a new Shareem--Justin--in Braden's book. His story will be next!

3. Thanks for all the emails and posts about FIREWALKER. I'm glad to hear that you're enjoying it. SHADOW WALKER is next, out in June, as well as the novella in HEXED.

I think that's it for now. Everyone have a great Christmas and holiday season!

Stormwalker News

This has been a hectic week: The release of Firewalker, a host of interviews/giveaways/guest blogging, plus I found out good news:

Stormwalker has been nominated for a Romantic Times Reviewer's Choice Award in Urban Fantasy. Woo hoo!

Also, I received the cover for Hexed, a four author anthology that will contain a Stormwalker story ("Double Hexed"). (This is the cover you see here.)

Hexed is already up on Amazon for preorder, as is Shadow Walker, Book 3 of the Stormwalker series (Janet and Mick are back and badder than ever.)
