Divided (Element Preservers, #3) Cover Reveal!

As I promised, today you get to see the cover for the third book in Element Preservers series. Now, what can I say about the cover? Well, it reflects the story as usual. I especially love the ice and how it went over the letters in the series title because it seems like it's going out of the picture, right? :D You can probably guess this from the title, but Ria will be conflicted a lot about what to do. Here is the first version of the blurb (and I say the first version because it can still change, but probably won't change much):

After spending some time on her own, Ria thinks she is ready to meet Oliver's group of magic disease carriers and find out what her brother really wants. But when her father reveals the secret that affects the whole world, she will have to make a series of decisions that could change her life forever.

Finally, here is the cover! I would love to hear what you think.

Divided Cover Reveal This Saturday!

Hi, everyone! I have the cover for Divided (Element Preservers, #3) and I can't wait to share it with you! So, I'm going to reveal the cover this Saturday, November 17th. I hope you'll stop by my blog and website to check it out. Also, thanks to everyone who voted in the poll about Element Preservers novella. If you haven't voted yet, you can still do it here: http://www.addpoll.com/alylin/poll/214986
As for the release date for Divided, I don't think it will be this month because I'm rewriting parts of it. I like the idea of writing the novella (and I can see that you guys like it too), so I figured some scenes from Divided could be removed and adapted for the novella. My betas agree with my ideas, so we'll see how that goes. I totally see myself doing something crazy as choosing December 21st to publish Divided. Of course, Christmas time is coming, so the retailers will be slow to make the book available in their stores. So even if I publish in December, it's very likely B&N, Apple or others won't have it in their store until January. But then again, if I publish in January, some of you will still have to wait, so maybe it's better I publish sooner. It's complicated. :D Anyway, I'll see how edits go and give you a release date as soon as I can.

Would Love to Know Your Opinion!

Hi, everyone! I'm editing Divided, the third book in Element Preservers series, and I've been thinking about something. Element Preservers is written from Ria's point of view, so I thought it would be fun if I wrote a novella from some other character's POV. Many of my favorite authors do this and write a novella which sort of fits in the series, but usually concentrates on another character. You probably noticed that sometimes there are books 0.5, 1.5 and so on, depending after which book in the series the novella follows. Of course, it's a bit shorter than a full novel, but you get an awesome insight into another character's mind. I haven't decided anything yet, but maybe I could do the same. So, I need your help. I created a poll so you could choose a character you'd like to read about in the novella. Please, pick *one* character. I'm only trying to figure it out if people would be interested in reading the novella if I wrote one, so please vote. :D If you can't see the poll, here's the link to it: http://www.addpoll.com/alylin/poll/214986

Title of the Third Book in Element Preservers Series!

I'm working very hard on the third book in Element Preservers series, so I thought it was the perfect time to give you the title! I still don't know when exactly the book will be ready for publishing, but I believe it should be somewhere between mid-November and January. It all depends on how much time my betas will have and how many edits I'll still have to make. The good news is that you won't have to wait a year like you had to with Runaway. The blurb will have to wait a bit because I might be making major changes, so there would be no point in posting it early only to change it later. But back to the title. :D The title of the third book in Element Preservers series will be:

Divided! (I hope the glittery letters above work. XD) Yes, the title has a lot to do with the plot, as usual. If you have any speculations about what will happen in Divided, you're welcome to post them in comments. :D I hope you like the title!

Runaway Now on Kobo!

I realized it would take ages for Runaway to become available on Kobo through Smashwords, so I went to publish it there directly. It took only a few hours, so I'm impressed. Anyway, here is the link: http://www.kobobooks.com/ebook/Runaway-Element-Preservers-Series-Book/book-KgcvcIcguUis8kuGQrVc3w/page1.html?s=vFMSlXSaxUqaqIi7atvgTA&r=3 It's new, so if something doesn't work yet, give it some time. :D However, the new version of Dangerous still has to appear on the site and I'll give you the link for it as soon as I have it. The old Smashwords version will probably take some time to get removed, so I suggest you download the copy with the new cover since that is the latest version.

Update: Link for new version of Dangerous: http://www.kobobooks.com/ebook/Dangerous-Element-Preservers-Book-01/book-I0NKppr3lkujz0lvdK6mwQ/page1.html?s=szz8u9wepEytkNmTMJwrvQ&r=4

New Cover for Human!!!

Hello everyone, I just came to tell you that Human has a new cover!! I know it looks almost the same, but now it's much bigger to fit with the rest of the covers. You know, every time I tried to make a signature or a banner with my books, Human would never fit with Dangerous and Runaway because of the size. Besides, some people thought the old cover was sort of creepy because it reminded them of a doll. Oh well, I hope you like this one better. :D

 

As for the possible sequel, I still don't have any awesome news. I haven't decided that there won't be a sequel, but I'll leave that decision for 2013. Right now I'm totally busy with the third book in Element Preservers and my new series/trilogy/not sure. But don't worry. If I decide something, you'll be the first to know. :D 

For anyone waiting for Runaway to appear on Kobo/Diesel/Sony, I hope it won't take much longer, but I honestly have no clue what's taking them so long to put it up. Sorry about that. Oh, and hugs to Australians for getting Runaway on the best-selling list on iTunes! You guys are the best! :D And of course, hugs to everyone reading my books!

Runaway (Element Preservers, #2) Now for Nook!

B&N has finally made Runaway available, so now you can read it on your Nook too! Here is the link: http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/runaway-alycia-linwood/1112818893?ean=2940044796959 Sorry about this delay, and I hope you'll enjoy the book! :D
