Get Wicked Abyss at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple Books, Kobo, or at your local indie!Show Notes- You know Kresley is self-publishing when you see it's Valkerie Press.In IAD, a sorceri queen has the most power in that area.- Love triangles are very common in YA.- Eloisa James' first novel was Potent Pleasures, the the line Sarah quoted is: "Charlotte was one week short of 17 when her life was changed, falling into two halves like a shiny child's ball: before and after."- The best thing that ever happened at Coachella.- Uh. While researching for this podcast, Jen realized that Deadmou5 is real.- Sarah's hero/heroine/heroine's best friend on the line book is A Rogue By Any Other Name, which you can get in ebook for $1.99 right now!- There apparently was a crossover between IAD and Gena Showalter's Lords of the Underworld series. Tell us what you know.- Gay romance author and all around good guy Nathan Burgoine explains why "Gay for You" is a problem.- No one like a milksop.- All about the Kinsey Scale, and Jen thinks of this very funny tweet from her friend Zach every time she hears the phrase "Kinsey scale."- Happy Days didn't spin off from something, it was the spinner. Frasier was a Cheers spin-off. The Dacians is not an IAD spin-off. It is IAD. This is canon now.- The Arcana Chronicles is Kresley's YA series.- Jen recommends The Animators by Kayla Rae Whitaker if you're interested in a novel about women artists at work.- In two weeks, we're finishing Season One (sniff!) with Wicked Abyss!Lost Limb CountArms and Hands (8)1.
