As the re-release of The Night Girl approaches, I had my friend Damian Baranowski do a quick revision of his book trailer for the new adult urban fantasy novel. Please view and enjoy, and help an author out and share it if you can.
As is the case with this industry, there were some revisions to the release date after the revisions were made to the book trailer. With luck, the book will now ship on August 12, but will likely appear in bookstores some time after. However, Shadowpaw Press and I will be at When Words Collide in Calgary from August 15-17. Ed will be selling books and I will be signing them, so those attendees can be the first to receive the new editions!
In addition to this promotion, I was privileged to participate in an episode of Brook Wright's She Blurbs podcast, discussing The Night Girl and the work that went into it. Be sure to check it out! And while I'm on the subject of podcasts, while this relates to The Sun Runners rather than The Night Girl, I'd like to thank Jeff Lippman for hosting me as part of his Garden of Thought podcast. Check it out as well.
I'm also working on some promotional events in September to celebrate the re-release. Bakka-Phoenix will be hosting an Evening Mingle for The Night Girl at their Toronto store on Thursday, September 18, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., where there will be snacks and conversation, and I'll be sure to bring cake. Look also for announcements for a similar gathering at Words Worth Books in Waterloo.
I'm delighted that The Night Girl is back in print and with Shadowpaw Press, who will give this a good push throughout Canada. While I will always be grateful for the work my original publishers put into the book back in 2019, it's nice to have the book come home, and I hope htat Canadians will welcome it with open arms.
