If you reside in US, yes.  All of our Ace titles, including both Magic and Edge series, are available in electronic form.  If you are unable to preorder a title in e-form, that’s probably because most e-tailers don’t offer preorder versions of Ace books far in advance.  The e-books will become available for preorder closer to release date.

Sadly, we’re orphaned in UK.  I pretty much suspected so – our UK editor had left the publishing house – and I had asked our agent about it, who is looking for alternative venue.  Today, thanks to Susan, we have a semi-official confirmation.

This affects Australian rights as well, I believe.

I’ve been asked before, “Why don’t you just self-publish?”  It may come to that.  If we do self-publish, we would have to resign ourselves to kissing any UK print deal for the series good-bye.  It’s not the question of money.  (I think we only got $5,000 per book.) It’s the question of availability.  The US imports can be purchased in UK and Australia, but they are a pain to find.  Having a print deal would make the books more widely available to people who still prefer to read in paper.

One way or the other, we will figure this out.

Please contact Nancy for all questions in regard to rights and cover quote requests.

If you email one of us asking to provide a cover quote for your book, we will delete your email. Please contact Nancy instead.

We do not control our covers, except for the books we self-publish. The covers are created by the art department of Ace based on the brief descriptions of the characters and models available.  We have very little input into the cover process. For example, we wanted a little raccoon on the cover of Fate’s Edge and didn’t get despite begging and stomping our feet. Emailing us to tell us about it probably won’t do much good.  :(

We do not control the availability of our books in other countries.  Your local publishers and retailers control that.  If you would like to read our work in your language/your country, please email a local publisher who publishes fiction similar to our work and let them know you would like to read us on your terms.  We’re happy to sell foreign rights to other countries.  We would like to have our books to be available as widely as possible.

Probably not.  We donate to a number of charities monthly and we receive a lot of requests of this nature.  While we applaud your cause and support you in your charitable endeavors, we will not contribute financially to your cause.

Our deadlines are very tight this year and we have to limit the number of guest blogs we do.  We’ll be happy to hear from you, but please don’t be upset if the answer is no.

No.
