If you guys missed Nalini Singh chatting it up over at the Knight Agency on Thursday, never fear…you can check out the transcript here.
I was just steered to the NonProfits Shopping Mall and it’s actually a really good idea. Basically, it’s a bunch of retailers who have pledged that they will contribute a portion of their sales to either one or a varity of charitys. For instance, do you want to get the new Laurell K Hamilton when it comes out on Nov. 4th? Then head on over to NonProfits Shopping Mall, click on Amazon and go through the process. Amazon will give 2% of your final order to the charity of your chosing or whichever one is in the spotlight this month (which happens to be the Susan G Komen for the Cure); it’s not much, but if a ton of people use it, then it can add up.

Thanks to Sidhe Vicious, she pointed me towards a couple of new covers. We’ve already seen Nalini Singh’s cover for Angel’s Blood and Tate Halloway’s Romancing the Dead. However, here are a couple new ones:
- Kiss & Hell by Dakota Cassidy (above), which comes out June 2009;
- the third in Cassidy’s Accidental series, The Accidental Human, which will be released March 2009;
- Terri Garey’s You’re the One that I Haunt, the third novel in the Nikki Styx series, which comes out February 2009;
- and last is a new to me, VK Forrest’s Undying, the second novel in the Clare Point series, which comes out December 2008.
