    • Guest Post: Thistledown – Midsummer Bedlam by Teagan Ríordáin Geneviene #Fairy #Fantasy New Release

      Posted at 12:58 pm by Mary J. McCoy-Dressel, on December 24, 2019

      H, folks! I have a guest for you today to share in her new book release! Some of you will know Teagan @teagangeneviene from her blog at Teagan’s Books, but if you’re new here, or to Teagan, I invite you to check out the work from a creative and talented writer. Read on…


       

      Thistledown — Midsummer Bedlam is ready to fly to your shelves!

      Thistledown — Midsummer Bedlam by Teagan Ríordáin Geneviene is now available in book form (Kindle and paperback). If you think you’re too old for a tale about faeries, it also has a dark side. For those who read the serial version at Teagan’s Books (blog), she added a little something to the ending that you haven’t seen.

      Mary, thanks so much for hosting the launch of my launch of Thistledown — Midsummer Bedlam. It is a tale of faeries written for whimsical grownups, but suitable for children of all ages.

      You’re very welcome, Teagan.

      In 2017, readers of my blog, Teagan’s Books, named many of the fairies (or faeries, as I prefer to call them) — or they let me make up names in their honor. The characters are not based on the real people. They are just a way for me to honor the people who followed Thistledown. Mary, I remember that you had a faery name ready when I asked. So, I want to introduce “Calico Rainbowforest” to your readers.

      In writing this story, I thought about how ordinary things might be different for faeries. I created their unique and whimsical means of communicating. One of those was the Thistledown Daily Trumpet. It’s a newspaper and Calico Rainbow forest is the managing editor. She also wears some really cool-looking spectacles. Bedlam Thunder, the heroine, learns that she has more in common with Calico than she expected.

      Here’s the Book Blurb

      Thistledown ― Midsummer Bedlam, by Teagan Ríordáin Geneviene is a wildly whimsical tale of faeries. It was originally written for a grownup audience, but it is suitable for children ages eight and over.

      Thistledown is a world of color and light. It has faeries, hummingbirds, and ancient books of magic. Bedlam Thunder is a misfit faery who is afraid of heights. She is also a seer who has terrible visions of a parallel world devoid of color and brightness. The hate and darkness of that colorless world is seeping into Thistledown. Will Bedlam and her friends be able to save their home?

      Thistledown ― Midsummer Bedlam, with its radiant creatures and faeries will lift your imagination to new heights.

    • Book Launch – Party Bus & Atonement TN Book Fair!

      Posted at 10:02 am by Mary J. McCoy-Dressel, on October 23, 2018

      Tuesday’s are often my Inspiration for the Muse Postings. Well, if this isn’t inspirational, I don’t know what is: A Blog Party, New Book Launch, and Book Fair are Here. All aboard. Don’t miss the Party Bus for another stop on the Tour!

      If you get crazy and stay up all night reading whimsical, suspenseful, magical, fantasies set in our current real world then don’t be late for the bus. This party is open all night.

      Come on by and see who else is here doing the party thing with the Atonement, TN books by Teagan R. Geneviene. I see some familiar names and book titles…and a cowboy! It’s party time, folks. Hop on over to Teagan’s Blog to see what’s going on.

       

      Never be the first to arrive at a party or the last to go home, and never, ever be both. ~David Brown, quoted in Reader’s Digest “Quotable Quotes,” April 2004

      Well butter my butt and call me a biscuit — Atonement in Bloom is finally published!  It was a wild ride, even after I finished all the work on the novel.  Meaning I’m not best pleased with all the bumps in the road from the Amazon take-over of Create Space…  Now, let’s get this party bus on the highway!

      Atonement Blog Party Bus LoadedThe bus is headed to Atonement, TN, the fictional town of my urban fantasy series.  The stories in my “Atonement universe” are not romances, not science fiction, not family drama, or religious — and they certainly are not high-brow literature.  They’re whimsical, suspenseful, magical, fantasies set in our current real world. 

      All aboard!  Beep-beep, yeah! The party bus is here. (Click here for theme music Magic Bus!)  Our first stop is in Connecticut to pick up Dan Antion, who has a handy guided tour…

    • Get Caught Reading! Gotcha…

      Posted at 9:07 am by Mary J. McCoy-Dressel, on April 29, 2016

      Mary J McCoy-Dressel Books, Get Caught Reading

      May is Get Caught Reading Month. That’s right. May is knocking on April’s door. Wouldn’t you want to get caught reading? I would because I love to read.

      What is Get Caught Reading all about? Read on, my friends.

      From the Get Caught Reading Website: 

      “About Get Caught Reading.”

      Get Caught Reading is a nationwide campaign to remind people of all ages how much fun it is to read. May is Get Caught Reading month, but the campaign is promoted throughout the year. Get Caught Reading is supported by the Association of American Publishers (AAP). Launched in 1999, “Get Caught Reading” is the brainchild of former Congresswoman Pat Schroeder, President and Chief Executive Officer of AAP, the industry association representing book publishers. She saw the opportunity to spread the word about the joys of reading through an industry-supported literacy campaign.

      Be sure to check out this site.

      For Get Caught Reading Month, I’ll be reblogging a mini series of mid-week posts from Teagan’s Books, author of Attonement, Tennessee an Urban Fantasy novel. You’ll find more information about Teagan on her blog.

      She’ll be taking us on a little tour. Not only that, she’s also taking along a few bloggers and their fur babies. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for “yours truly” and Kasha, my fur baby. Stay tuned. Teagan has already written the first part of the mini series, so you’ll see that reblogged right here real soon. Like in a matter of minutes! I know you’ll enjoy the trip.

      Teagan will explain more about her mini-series in the upcoming post.

      Let’s have fun!

      Don’t forget to… Get Caught Reading!


      Mary J McCoy-Dressel BooksWhat am I reading at the moment?

      • Interlude by Linda Lael Miller
      • Stories of Chance Romance by B.C. Deeks, Roxy Boroughs & Victoria Chatham. (All proceeds from this book are donated to advance the treatment of breast cancer.)
      • Maid for Love by Marie Force

      Apparently I read like I write. More than one book at a time. 🙂 I don’t normally write more than one book at a time by choice.

      Have a good one!
