I love a good party! Who doesn't right?
Well, when my writing buddy +V.L. Jennings told me she was setting up a release party for the paperback version of her book The Alien Mind I jumped at the chance to be involved. A copy of How to be Twittertastic is just one of the great prizes up for grabs.
Before we take a look at all the prizes and all the details for the release party, let me tell you a bit more about The Alien Mind and Virginia.
About The Alien Mind
Author: V.L. Jennings
Publisher: Rara Avis: Imprint of PDMI Publishing LLC
Release Date: July 4th
When a group of aliens called the Aruk abduct Young Rivinaig
and several other children, they are thrown into the adventure of a lifetime.
The Aunantet, a benevolent race of aliens, rescue the children and adopt them
into their culture and raised them as if they belong.
The children's new families teach them how to harness the full
capacity of their minds,enabling them to defy the laws of physics and develop
special mental abilities.
The past returns to haunt them as the Aruk plot revenge and
regain control of their former captives. The fate of the entire galaxy depends
on whether the children can maintain their freedom.
About Virginia
When V.L. Jennings isn't
traveling to other worlds through her imagination, she calls Dillon, South
Carolina her home. Virginia is the author of "The Alien Mind," a
science fiction novel published by PDMI Publishing, LLC. Her second title,
"Visionary From The Stars" is expected to be re-released through PDMI
as well, in the fall of 2015. She has also illustrated a children's book for
PDMI, titled "Wiggle Worm's Shape Adventures," written by Karen and
Kathy Sills.
But what motivates Virginia
to create, to illustrate, to prognosticate? Virginia is a speculator, the kind
of person who always debates the "what if?" of where stories both
true and fantastical are leading themselves to, which explains her love of
post-apocalyptic fare such as "The Walking Dead." Through her
writing, she enjoys trying to figure out what our human potential is, and where
our innate desire for a better world could lead us.
Overall, Virginia is just
about as real as a person can get. Yes, even authors love to sing along with
their favorite local radio station while driving, and Virginia is no exception
to this rule. She enjoys watching Doctor Who or Star Trek with her family over
dinner, and also watching the latest sci-fi and action movies with her husband.
On the weekends, you may even find Virginia and her family at the local comic
book store, hunting down more comics to add to their collections.
Virginia loves to connect
with new people, as well as hashing out story concepts and other creative ideas
on her blog, at www.virginialorijennings.com.
