inCONceivable Virtual Convention - Behind the Scenes

 

The Mad Writers Tea Party

In the time of social distancing and lockdown, it can be hard to connect in the ways we are used to. But let me just say... it can be done!

I'm just back from the wild and wonderful inCONceivable virtual convention. It was absolutely amazing and I can't wait to share these panels, writers, presenters and pop artists with you.

Highlights from inCONceivable

First there us the Mad Writers Tea Party, a panel with me (as A K Wilder aka Kim Falconer, Isobelle Carmody, Traci Harding, Kylie Chan and Juliette Marillier:

We had at least as much fun as 'The Mad Hatter's Tea Party' by Beyond Cinema

Watch the full two hours, in two parts!

The entire weekend was a blast. I mean, a virtual convention where you can shop all your favourite local artists and pop culture merchandise, listen to authors talk about your favorite genres, writing tips and support, behind the scenes in Hollywood... all without leaving your home?

What's not to love?

I'll be sure to let you know when the next inCONceivable event is on.

The Blood in the Beginning

Pre-order

Hi Everyone! I have two big reveals today. 

Over at AvaSykes.com the cover and pre-order is up for the first in the Ava Sykes novels, The Blood in the Beginning. Coming out through Harlequin Books Australia, the launch is scheduled for July 1, 2016, but you can pre-order now to make sure you don't miss out.

Knock down, kickass nightclub bouncer Ava Sykes takes us deep into a dystopian world and out the other side in this dark and gritty, high-action urban fantasy.

Undergraduate by day, bouncer by night, Ava Sykes is just trying to make her way in New LA, a city recovering in the ‘Aftermath’ the time after an earthquake tore the country apart. Ava studies hard, trains at the local dojo, and teaches kids self-defence. Sure, she has a rare blood disorder and a stolen identity, but who doesn’t keep a few secrets these days?

Life is tough, but when Ava takes a job at the trendy new club, Poseidon, her financial worries seem to be over.Then the evil wakes up.After stumbling into the VIP area of the club, where humans are on the menu, Ava is attacked in the street, and finds herself in the hospital, trying to put the pieces together. The bizarre hallucinations aren’t helping, and neither is Dr. Miguel Rossi, the man who claims to know more about her origins than she does.

Shocked to the core at the discovery, Ava begins a search for her birth mother — and the truth —  but with a copycat killer on her tail, the attractive and powerful Daniel Bane offering to protect her and a doctor bent on unravelling her mysterious ‘condition’, the facts are hard to pin down. Meanwhile, the ‘otherness’ in her blood makes her increasingly irresistible to all the wrong people.

Ava used to dream of knowing where she came from but faced with the truth, she’d give anything to forget.


Here's what best selling fantasy author Traci Harding has to say:

"Rich in atmosphere, intrigue and action, and a heroine who just will not quit. Long live Ava Sykes!"
