Gimme Your Shoes

ImageThis week at the YA Indie Carnival we’re kicking off our shoes and going BAREFOOT. It is summer, after all. In honor of this week’s topic, here’s an excerpt from Whispering Evil. In this part of the story, Keira allowed herself to be captured by the mogdocs in order to gain access to the Empress. Unfortunately, her ex-boyfriend foils the plan by rescuing her. She finds herself barefoot and far from home. Keira’s not the damsel in distress type, so asking for assistance, especially from her ex who’s still madly in love with her, holds about as much appeal as mystery loaf with cheese.

Warning: This excerpt contains a spoiler for Book 1. Continue reading “Gimme Your Shoes”

Working on Book 3

Bryna Butler, authorI’ve been working on Book 3 which I call Midnight Child. It’s coming along really nicely and I expect to have it in publication in early 2012. There’s alot going into it, so it will likely be larger than the first two books.

Midnight Child will have more action. Keira starts her search for the true “human gift” and the mogdocs learn that Drew Hayes is her charge. Plus, there’s all the drama of senior year. It picks up a few weeks after Whispering Evil ends (fall of junior year) and continues through most of senior year.

Better get back to writing now. Talk to you soon.

New at the Library

Bossard LibraryThanks a ton to the friendliest librarians on the planet. I’m pleased as punch to announce that The Bossard Memorial Library in Gallipolis, Ohio, has added Whispering Evil to its collection. The library already circulates 3 copies of Of Sun & Moon. (Although one of those is grossly overdue…shame on you, you know who you are.)

This is of special importance as Gallipolis was the inspiration for the river town depicted in the series.

Remember, September is National Library Card Sign Up Month. Stop by your local library and revel in the services that are available for patrons of all ages. You won’t be sorry you did.

Interview with Empress Gammen

Gammen Royal CrestThe Mogdoc News Network will broadcast an exclusive “live” interview with Empress Broo Gammen this Friday at midnight (eastern) via Twitter @MogdocNews.  She’s confident, blond, and in charge. Who knows what the Empress will say?

If you have any questions for Empress Gammen (aka Brooke Banes), please comment on this post with them or on the Bryna Butler, Author Facebook page. Keep in mind that the mogdocs aren’t fond of humans, so they may not use your questions. However, I will forward them to the interviewer. It doesn’t hurt to ask.

It’s sure to be a lot of fun. So, tune in this Friday for this special event to help celebrate the launch of Whispering Evil, Book 2 of the Midnight Guardian ya series.

Whispering Evil is Here!

Whispering EvilGuess you can call me a serial author now.

Book 2 in the Midnight Guardian series, Whispering Evil, was released today on Amazon Kindle and Smashwords.

The paperback is coming soon. Over the next few weeks, it will also filter into other major ebookstores like the B&N NOOKstore, Apple iBooks, and Sony eReader store.

As always, thanks for your support. I’ll keep you posted.
