It’s good to be alive…when you’re dead!
I released an ebook last November called Night Sighs, a paranormal romance for an adult audience. It was my first venture into self-publishing and I didn’t have much of a clue about book promotion, blog tours and marketing. I was an idiot. So, I’m doing a short, one week promo coming up to Halloween to give rock star vampire, Tristan and his girlfriend, Alex, the attention they deserve.
October 24/Today: I’ll be participating in the Halloween Spooktacular at Book Lover’s Hideaway where I’ll be talking about Halloween movies. October 25: My best friend, Laura, a fellow Corkonian is allowing me to ramble on about how Bruce Springsteen’s Paris, 1985 performance of “Because the Night” led me to writing “The Dead Beats”, the first short story in the Night Sighs collection at her blog On the Beat. October 26: Laura from Emerald Musings interviews me as well as sharing her thoughts on Night Sighs, and Kitt Crescendo of The Inner Wild Kat will be reviewing. October 27: Nix from Scorching Book Reviews will be posting a review and a short excerpt. October 28: Beverly from The Wormhole is interviewing me. October 29: Sharonda from Salacious Reads is featuring an excerpt. October 30: I have a guest spot over at Jody’s Words of Wisdom… from the Scarf Princess.
Earlier in the month, I wrote a short guest post about the members of the vampire band, The Dead Beats over at Reading Between the Wines Book Club.
Night Sighs
It’s good to be alive…when you’re dead!
Meet Alex & Tristan, modern star-crossed lovers of the supernatural variety.
Alex is running-on-empty, one year on from the death of her fiancé, and the only thing that keeps her going is her romance with the young vampire Tristan. Tristan, meanwhile has a serious obsession with Bruce Springsteen, and is battling a ‘can’t live without you’ sort of love for Alex. He’s trying to persuade her to come over to the dark side, but so far she’s resisting his efforts.
So come and sing along to Tristan’s band, The Dead Beats, the hottest group in London right now, and walk with Alex as she teeters between this life and the next. Because when you’re around Tristan, you’ll see, how much fun it is to be alive when you’re dead….
Night Sighs is an adult paranormal romance, following the relationship & adventures of Tristan & Alex through Five Short Stories: The Dead Beats, The Ancients, Until My Body Is Dust, Bourbon & Jazz and West of Forever.
Check it out on Amazon HERE
but remember, Night Sighs is for adult eyes only 😉

I fell so in love with Alex and Tristan that I had to write a follow up novel. I’m currently working on completing Night Whispers. All going well, it should be out next March.

This sounds like a fun promo, Emma! Good luck!
Thanks, Lauralynn.
Hooray! So exciting:D
See you over at your blog tomorrow, Laura. We all set for jazz Friday night?
Ooooooh, hot jazz on a cool Autumn night. Surly blues notes, stacatto drums, improvisation of horns, polyrhythmic guitars, a million colours and wiskey tastes, sounds wicked fun.
Another blog tour, my what a busy woman you arem but this book needs some more publicity. Good book, and for some reason I always blush when I think about this naughty little book. Have fun Emma and good luck.
Why thank you Chris. If I’ve made you blush, I’ve done something right 🙂
Hi, Emma! Hope you like the review I did for your fun, fun book! I wanted to be sure I didn’t give away too much in order to entice people to buy… 🙂 Thanks again for allowing the feature and review!
Hey, Kitt. Thanks a million, heading over to your neck of the woods now.
What a great blog/book tour you have set up! So glad I didn’t miss out on all the fun. Night Sighs sounds like a fun read, I’m glad you introduced us to Tristan and Alex, now I need to see what sort of adventures they get up to.
Thanks, Tameri. October seemed like the perfect time to send those two out travelling 🙂
Good luck with your tour.
Cheers, Sandra
