Here come the Freaks!

by Caroline Smailes on April 8, 2012

This Thursday is the official publication date for ‘Freaks!’, that collection of 50 short stories each featuring a character with a real or imagined super power (co-authored with Nik Perring, illustrated by Darren Craske). And, just like I begged for help with ’99 Reasons Why’, I am AGAIN begging for help, my lovely friends.

Nik, Darren and I are ‘asking’ for bloggers to host one for the short stories from ‘Freaks!’ on their blogs. Timing isn’t crucial here, but it’d be ACE if you could host it over the next couple of weeks. And, we’ll give all who host a copy of the eBook as a thank you (as well as my love, obviously).

If you’d like to be involved, do contact James at jameslynch@lightbrigade.co.uk (I know, not Sophie this time) and, as he’s rather lovely, James will email you all that you need for your blog post.

We’ll be using the hashtag #freaks over on Twitter and on the publication day we’ll be tweeting about ideal super powers with an ace prize up for grabs. It’d be utterly FABULOUS if you’d like to join in the online launch of ‘Freaks!’. There’s so much more that I could say, but I’ll just get all mushy and sob like a Gwyneth and no one wants that.

More, soon.

(And here is a review and another of ‘Freaks!’, for those who are curious)

I’ve emailed James, despite no cake being offered.

It would be totally swell! And it makes sense, doesn’t it?! Both you and Nik were two of my first interviewees, it would be great to catch up two years from the last time! I’ve dropped a line to James.
