Introducing Julie Kenner!
Julie and I have forged an alphabetical friendship at author conferences over the years—Kenner, Kendrick, we’re always seated next to each other at book signings—and I’m so excited to introduce her as April’s guest chick because, quite frankly, the woman is a phenom.
For reals. She writes about 86 books a year in like 4 different genres and hits all kinds of bestseller lists and always has time to give sage advice to clueless newbies (e.g., me). Oh, and until recently, she was a practicing attorney. And she’s raising two kids. And now, she’s officially scored a 2007 RITA nomination for California Demon, her hilarious novel about a demon-hunting soccer mom.
We're reasonably sure Julie’s struck a pact with the devil. Either that or she permanently gave up sleep in favor of a Diet Coke I.V.
So, ever the overachiever, Julie has not just one but TWO new releases out this month:
The Prada Paradox, the finale in her trilogy of suspense and intrigue with fashionista flair. (See also: The Givenchy Code, the Manolo Matrix)
And The Good Ghoul’s Guide to Getting Even, her young adult debut about an attitudinous teen vampire with a score to settle.
If you haven’t read any of Julie’s books yet, you are in for a treat. Run, do not walk, to your nearest bookstore. And yes, you guys will have a chance to win big: Julie is giving away two sets of The Givenchy Code and The Manolo Matrix and two advance copies of The Good Ghouls Do (the sequel to The Good Ghoul’s Guide to Getting Even). Stay tuned for all the details!
To enter the giveaway, e-mail your name and address with "Good Ghouls READ!" in the subject line. Winners will be chosen at random and announced in Julie's farewell blog on the 22nd. Good luck!

I just ordered two of your books. I love paranormal storylines. I've already read most of Mary Janice Davidson, so I'm looking for others and you popped in at the perfect time. Welcome to the Chicks.
