To encourage people to pre-order my precious little book baby before she pops out into the world on November 5th, I’m sweetening the deal with a fabulous book club basket. What is a book club basket you ask? Well, it’s everything you need to host a book club with your friends or frenemies whether you are social distancing in the back yard or zooming it in the safety of your living room.

The basket includes…

Five signed copies of Forever 51

A custom made Forever 51 face mask to show the world how much you love menopausal vampires.

A Vampire Blood Candle, foaming hand soap and hand sanitizer from Bath and Body Works.

Two bars of chocolate, if I don’t eat them first. I’m kidding. I wouldn’t do that. On a Tuesday.

Some book lover items…mini book light, magnifier and bookmark. A journal to record the books you’ve read and a poster about the fifty books you should read in your lifetime. FYI, my book is not on the list, but I’m drinking milk and maybe one day…

Wine. Because who doesn’t like to drink wine while discussing LITERATURE?

Last, but certainly not least, I will Zoom into your book club discussion to either answer questions or stay awkwardly muted while you and your friends drink wine and eat the chocolate without me.

So what does one have to do to win all this fabulousness? Simply pre-order the e or print version of my book and then take a screen shot and send it to me via email. My address is, and don’t let it scare you…thedeathwriter at g mail dot com. (It is typed this way so that the spambots won’t inundate my inbox with offers for male sexual enhancements, porn or cleaning supplies.)

Or, you can sign up for my Pam Spam mailing list. Trust me on this, the emails are few and far between so I won’t be sending you my whimsical musings at four in the morning.

That’s it. Easy peasy lemon squeezy! There will be a drawing on my favorite day of the year, Halloween at 8pm CDT.

What are you waiting for?
