Today also happens to be Rosh Hashanah, or the Jewish New Year, as well as a predicted date for the rapture. Coincidence? Yes, actually. I had no idea the second anniversary of Hannah‘s original release was the first day of Rosh Hashanah, and the rapture thing was first announced in June, long after I decided to release Hannah on its second anniversary. Still, it’s a hilarious couple of coincidences, and kind of poignant for Rosh Hashanah. Happy New Year (or “L’Shana Tovah,” as we say in Hebrew).

Anyway, onto the meat of this post. As I said above, two years ago I released a collection called Hannah and Other Stories, which contained tales of ghosts, budding serial killers, and carnivorous horses. It was out for about fifteen months, until my contract with the publisher ended, and then it went out of print. After that, I decided to re-release it on the two-year anniversary of its original release, with a brand new edit and cover.

And that day is today.

I’m so glad Hannah is finally out again, and in paperback, too! (It was only released in ebook during the original run. Don’t ask.) I was very proud of this collection and the stories within, which were all original at the time it came out. And with this new edit and new cover, I think it’s even better than before. And with a paperback edition, even more people are going to be able to read it! They’re going to see it at events and maybe even want to buy and read it! They’ll even curl up with it on the couch and read it during the Halloween season!

The first batch of paperback author copies. Aren’t they absolutely beautiful?

And who knows? Maybe an audio version will be produced as well, if enough paperbacks and ebooks are sold.

If you’d like to check out the book, I’ll include the links below. I hope you’ll enjoy it if you decide to read it. And whether or not you do, I hope you’ll leave me a review. Positive or negative, I love reader feedback, and your reviews help both me and other readers in the long run.

That’s all for now, my Followers of Fear. I’m off to celebrate both the Jewish New Year and the new release (I have some special wine in the fridge). Until next time, good night, pleasant nightmares, and 38 days till Halloween. Are you enjoying spooky season right now? I know I am.
