News and stuff

Damn I'm good with blog post headlines...

A few things: First of all, I'm in the process of editing one freebie short story (will be out at some point through Dreamspinner Press, I'll keep you posted) and Finnshifters 2 that now has a brand new title!

Finnshifters 2 was supposed to be called, or rather its working title was, Moving On. Then another book named Moving On was released by DSP last month (I think) and I had to come up with a new name for FS2.

The new name is Tiglon by the Tail. I love the name and I wouldn't have come up with it without some help from the editorial department, so thanks! Also, the release date is in September, which day, I don't know yet.

Secondly, I'm going to start the process of having a new website done! It will be easier to update (thank you for everyone who hasn't emailed me about the lack of updates on my current site...) and it will look really good, I bet. Can't wait to see what AngstyG comes up with!

Thirdly, on August 4th, next Saturday, I'll be hosting a Facebook chat on Dreamspinner's Facebook page. Now, a bunch of stuff will be happening there, but there will be giveaways and even a paperback giveaway (signed and delivered to you wherever you live!) So keep an eye out!

Fourthly (this is getting silly...) in September, there will be an event in Brighton called UK GLBTQ Fiction Meet and I'll be attending with plenty of other authors. So in case you're in Brighton on September 15th, please do come meet us!

That's about it for now!

The Great Escape is here!

As promised, here it is.

The Great Escape, otherwise known as By Any Other Name holiday story is now online.

You can download it here on gdocs, but if you can't, for whatever reason, please email me and I'll send it to you instead.

Have a happy and peaceful rest of the year!

By Any Other Name-freebie coming right up!

I wasn't going to do this, but I will anyway.

Suddenly yesterday, Thom, Dru and Skye began chatting in my head. They want a Christmas story. So I'm in the process of writing one right now. You should have it before Christmas Eve and I'll post the link for a .pdf download here, on my Facebook and my Twitter. (You can find links for those on my website, www.tiafielding.com).

On other news, I've contracted a first book in a series that I call, at the moment, Finnshifters. It's basically my take on the shapeshifter-lore and the story is placed in Finland. In my universe there are "cat and dog" shifters, and the first book is about Mikael, a half-shifter who runs his small family farm his dad turned into a shifter sanctuary, and the shifter he falls in love with. Naturally it's also about the "farm family", a lot of different kinds of people and I hope you'll like it!

Chuffed, book 1, will be out at some point in May-June 2012.

Don't Read In The Closet vol 3

The third volume of Goodreads' M/M Romance group's Don't Read in the Closet-collection is now out!

You can download it for free and it has a story by me in it also. :) So head over to the Volume 3 page on Goodreads to check it out!

Free Stories!!

Dreamspinner Press has a Halloween thing running for this month.

There are 31 stories hidden on author pages, product pages, series pages...you name it, if it has something to do with the author who wrote the freebie, it might be there...

Gary the Gargoyle marks each story and I have a little bit called The Maze hidden on one of my product pages. So go look and download it, it's free! :)

May 29th is here!

This means three things!

One, it is my 30th birthday today! Yay for me, I actually LOVE getting older and despite being a sarcastic person in general, that wasn't sarcasm.

Secondly, tomorrow is the day when I become a published writer! You can find my short story The Double D's from here or from here if you prefer Smashwords. I'll add buy-links later when I get them.

Thirdly, my other short story, Unwind, will be out on Wednesday, so I shall post more about that later.

That's it for now!

Oh wait, not exactly... I've written a story for the Goodreads M/M-Romance-group's Hot July Days-thing. A bunch of writers are writing stories for readers' prompts. Mine is a werewolf story, yay! It will be posted on the M/M-Romance group where you can read it for free and I'll later add it to my website (once that is done). Also, all those stories are compiled and made a free download anthology-thing eventually, when they're all out.

Shall keep you posted on that one too. :)

Now I'm done, promise!

More news! And this time it's good!

So, I'm happy to report that my short short story Waves was published in Dreamspinner Press' February newsletter.

I can also tell you, that I'm currently doing revisions to a novella length story that has been picked up by a publisher. I can't really tell you more until there's something more concrete, but you should be able to see something by yours truly out there soon enough. ;)

Here's a link to the newsletter, where you can check out some of my writing. I'm also going to put up some freebies to this blog, so keep posted. :)
