The wait is (almost) over

It’s NO MEMES OF ESCAPE time

Maybe you’re reading this newsletter the second it hits your inbox, in which case, Hi! You’re a firecracker, aren’t you? Or maybe you’ve let this relax in your mailbox for a day or two (hopefully not too long, because there’s a sweepstakes in here that ends on October 5, 2021, and an event on October 5, 2021!) But depending on when you read this, NO MEMES OF ESCAPE might already be out. It might already be in your mailbox, at your favorite bookstore, in your hands, or already on your bookshelf.

ISN’T THAT EXCITING???? (FYI, I’m really pumped and have zero chill today, in case you can’t tell.)


Did someone say party?

Do you know what happens when you get two nerdy cozy mystery authors together? You’re invited to find out! Join myself and Kate Lansing (MULLED TO DEATH) on October 5, 2021 as we discuss cozies, book gossip, and the quirks of launching a book virtually, during a pandemic, during a supply chain interruption.

One More Page Books, a fabulous indie bookstore in Virginia, has been amazing to work with! Not only do they carry SIGNED copies of both NO MEMES OF ESCAPE and KILLER CONTENT, but they are also hosting a launch party for Kate & I! One More Page Books will have all sorts of goodies to offer, so please (pretty please?) swing by https://www.onemorepagebooks.com/event/book-launch-olivia-blacke-and-kate-lansing and celebrate with us! (APPEARANCE ARCHIVED HERE)

Also: I spoke with One More Page Books yesterday, and they confirmed that it’s not too late to preorder a personalized autographed copy of NO MEMES OF ESCAPE but the window shuts soon, so get your orders in ASAP or miss out on this opportunity!
