PIECES OF HER *US TOUR DATES* AND
EVEN MORE BEGGING AND PLEADING
OH AND ALSO SOME NEWS
*****************************************************************************************
WAIT, HAS IT BEEN A YEAR ALREADY BECAUSE YOU PROMISED WHEN I SIGNED UP NOT TO BUG ME INCESSANTLY AND TWO NEWSLETTERS IN A ROW FEELS A BIT INCESSANT!
*****************************************************************************************
Yes, yes, I know I promised I would only write when I want you to get a new book, but I gather from my Magic Pre-Order Sorting Hat (which is nothing like a House Sorting Hat) that some of you have not pre-ordered your very own copy of PIECES OF HER, so I’m going to keep writing these newsletters until Every. Single. One. of you has pre-ordered a copy of my new book, PIECES OF HER (p.s. CLICK HERE to order now)
*****************************************************************************************
WHAT’S THAT NEW BOOK CALLED AGAIN I FEEL LIKE YOU’RE NOT USING IT ENOUGH IN A SENTENCE.
*****************************************************************************************
PIECES OF HER, D@MMIT.
*****************************************************************************************
WOW THAT’S A WEIRD, CURSE-LADEN TITLE FOR A BOOK! WHEN CAN I SEE PIECES OF HER, D@MMIT IN MY LOCAL BOOKSTORE???
*****************************************************************************************
I’m glad you asked! Publications dates for PIECES OF HER are as follows:
23 July in Australia
30 July in New Zealand
1 August in Germany

Also, (because UK readers are special) right now there is a very special, limited edition version available at Waterstones for ½ price, but only while supplies last.

UH HELLO THESE ARE ONLY IN AMERICA WHICH CLEARLY MEANS THAT YOU HATE ALL THE REST OF YOUR READERS IN THE WORLD!
****************************************************************************************
Uh, hello, I was probably in your country or very near it at some point already this year and where the heck were you?
France, Canada, Germany, Denmark, Belgium and Holland, can I get a hollaback yo???
****************************************************************************************
SPEAKING OF THE NETHERLANDS AND BELGIUM, DON’T YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY TO US???
*****************************************************************************************
Why, yes. Yes, I do.
To my Dutchies and Flemmies: THANK YOU!
As of this writing, GESPLETEN, BLIKSEMS has been #1 on the bestseller list for 5 weeks in a row, breaking all of my previous in-a-row records.
A big thanks to everyone who came out to see me, especially the lady who had me sign her prosthetic leg (my first but hopefully not my last), my lovely peeps on the front row in Deventer and also to everyone who posted photos and left comments on my Facebook and Instagram pages!
ACTUALLY, if everyone reading this newsletter loves me as much as my Dutchies and Flemmies, then we’ll be breaking some more records all over the world.
OH! And if you think of it, use the hashtag #SlaughterSquad so my publishers and I can help re-post your awesome photos etc.
*****************************************************************************************
WAIT DON’T YOU HAVE SOMETHING ELSE TO LECTURE ME ABOUT BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE I DON’T GET LECTURED ENOUGH BETWEEN MY BOSS AND MY SPOUSE AND MY KIDS AND MY CAT???
*****************************************************************************************
Well, if you insist, I could maybe possibly perhaps take this moment to remind you that the first week a book is out is the most important week of that book’s life, so if you are planning on getting PIECES OF HER, the first week it is out would be the best week to get it, or even now because my publishers carefully track all of the pre-orders and that number either makes them happy or it makes them sad and I want my publishers to be happy so think of reserving your copy of PIECES OF HER right now immediately please and thank you as your special way of making people you’ve never met, never plan to meet, and don’t particularly care about very happy and the world will literally be a better place.
YOU HAVE THE POWER!!!

WHAT ABOUT THAT EUROPEAN LAW ABOUT PRIVACY AND COOKIES AND….YUM…COOKIES
***************************************************************************************** FOCUS, PEOPLE.
If you have not done so already, please take a moment to click on this this link and update your preferences and contact information on my mailing list. As always, I will never, ever share your information with anyone, and I promise to never send more than a few emails per year.*
*****************************************************************************************
*It is a total anomaly that I’ve sent two newsletters so close together** BUT I BLAME YOU.
**I’m totally lying. There’s gonna be at least two more newsletters because I might have some new news*** that I want to share and/or there are some awesome new photos of my cats that I feel like everyone needs to see.
*****************************************************************************************
***WAIT, WHAT WAS THE OLD NEWS?
*****************************************************************************************
Oh yeah just THIS, which is awesome.
*****************************************************************************************
WOW THAT IS A LOT MORE COMPELLING THAN YOUR IDLE SORTING HAT THREAT I AM IMPRESSED AND PERHAPS NOW I WILL BE MOVED TO DO AS YOU ASK AND MAKE THE FIRST WEEK THE BEST WEEK PIECES OF HER, D@MMIT HAS!
*****************************************************************************************
D@mmit, I knew I loved you for a reason.
*****************************************************************************************
WHY AM I STILL READING THIS???
*****************************************************************************************
I really don’t know, but I think maybe you should be reading something else, like, say, your favorite website for pre-ordering books or the phone number for your favorite book store so that you can make sure that PIECES OF HER has its #firstweekbestweek for my #SlaughterSquad
