Thanks to a fabulous Twitter follower, I just found out that ANOTHER KIND OF DEAD, Dreg City 3, is available for pre-order on Amazon.com and Amazon.ca! Very cool news, indeed. Hopefully I'll have a cover to tease y'all with very shortly...
Also, the first book in my Pocket series is up for pre-order on Amazon. Just bear in mind that the release date is changing. I don't know to when, yet, but I'll let everyone know when I find out.

I Am Thrilled to Finally Announce....
You remember that "other good news" I was teasing about early this summer, but couldn't talk about yet? I can talk about it now!
Here it is (cribbing from the original Publisher's Marketplace announcement):
So that wasn't exactly how it appeared in PM. I might have embellished one part.
*happy dance*
For those of you who've followed my publication struggles these last few years, I wrote WARDEN'S TRANCE a year before I wrote THREE DAYS TO DEAD. I submitted TW to agents, received a lot of rejections, and a handful of requests. I admit now that the book did need some work. And through the wisdom of a lot of people, including my agent and an amazing crit partner, plus what I learned by writing TDtD and its sequel, I whipped WT into shape and we sold it to Pocket!
So my advice to folks who are querying agents, feel they have a strong query, but find that they aren't having any luck? Write another book. Not all good books are good FIRST books.
Also, the awesome site i09.com did an interview with me back in late May, when the deal was first announced. You can read it here.
The first in this new superhero series, WARDEN'S TRANCE, should be out some time next summer/fall. Book two, QUEEN'S CAPTURE, will follow at some point after that. :)
Here it is (cribbing from the original Publisher's Marketplace announcement):
Kelly Meding's WARDEN'S TRANCE, the first book in a new series in which adult children of the world's slaughtered heroes suddenly regain their lost superpowers after a mysterious, fifteen-year absence, only to face a fearful public, a leery government, and the villain responsible for the deaths of their parents, to Jennifer Heddle at Pocket, in a two book deal, by MY SUPER-AWESOME, AMAZING AGENT!
So that wasn't exactly how it appeared in PM. I might have embellished one part.
