This is going to be an absolutely AMAZING event you will not want to miss!! I have been told that only CASH will be accepted for purchases since most of the authors will be bringing their own stock of books and thus the novels will be sold on commission. Please tell EVERYONE you know who might be interested in making this event!

EV is Printing as we speak!

I opened my email yesterday to a delightful little note from Storm Constantine at Immanion Press! She received the proof from the printers for Eternal Vigilance and said it looked fantastic so she gave the green light to proceed with the printing! Can you taste the blood yet? In a couple of weeks shipments will be in the mail and on their way to your front porches, a little package of vampire mayhem to sate your thirst this spring! The official release date is still April 21st, but you can reserve your copy now by CLICKING HERE! Quite a few people have already taken advantage of this to ensure a copy from this initial printing round and I can’t begin to express my gratitude to all of them! I can’t wait to hear what you have to say about my creation!

New Order Page Up on Immanion Press Website!

International orders for Eternal Vigilance may now be placed via the official order page on the Immanion Press website: www.immanion-press.com! Pre-orders from the US, Canada, Mexico and South America can still be made via this website on the STORE page or, if you prefer, through the Immanion Press website as well, depending on your location. Again, these two options have been set up to assist with savings on shipping to various destinations around the globe.

Thank you to everyone who has already reserved their copy! I look forward to hearing your thoughts after you’ve read it. I also wanted to say THANK YOU to Greg Lamberson and Fear Zone for posting an announcement about the release of Eternal Vigilance! http://www.fearzone.com/blog/eternal-preorder

ETERNAL VIGILANCE Available for Pre-Ordering!!

You might want to sit down for this one folks.

Are you sitting? Because, personally, I could just about pass out from the excitement! That’s right, the fateful day has FINALLY arrived! Eternal Vigilance is available for pre-order!!! Tell EVERYONE you know, loved ones, total strangers, the crazy guy on the street corner wearing the end-of-the-world sandwich board! I know that’s what I’m going to be doing.

So, how can you place your order so that you’re first in line to receive a copy of this delectable vampire novel when it comes out on April 21st? By visiting the STORE page of the ETERNAL VIGILANCE website: http://www.gabriellefaust.com/store! Right now the order button for United States, Mexico, Canadian and South American orders is active. The PayPal button for orders for other countries will be posted tomorrow (waiting on my publisher to send the html code). The reason for the two buttons is this: since I live in Texas and my publisher is in the UK we decided that I would be acting as a distributor for the western hemisphere in order to save you all a good deal on shipping. All orders for Europe, Asia, Australia, etc. will be mailed directly from Immanion Press in Stafford. If you live in United States, Mexico, Canada or South America you’re lucky, because I will be signing all copies I mail from my little distribution center (a.k.a. my office).

After April 21st you can either continue to order directly from us or via any online retailer such as Amazon, Borders, Barnes & Nobles, etc., through Immanion Press at www.immanion-press.com or via your local book retailer.

The final lap…

Well, my dear Darklings, it appears that we are in the final stretch! After finalizing a few last details the pdf of the interior was approved and the spine dimensions sent to the production guru to put the finishing touches on the cover! If all goes according to schedule *crosses fingers and toes* we should be heading into production in a week or so. That means that Eternal Vigilance should be available for pre-order very, very soon! I know many of you have been waiting for this date to be released and I thank you for your patience! Hopefully I’ll hear something in the next few days.

Remember to also keep watch on the Eternal Vigilance website (www.gabriellefaust.com) as well as my MySpace page (www.myspace.com/gsfaust) for regular updates and announcements. Be sure to “friend” me on MySpace!

Dark & Squishy Hugs to All!

Eternal Vigilance Receives First Two Cover Quotes!

Last week I sent the Eternal Vigilance manuscript to a select few people I admire to read and, hopefully, give quotes for the back cover. I received the first couple back and I was just so floored that I had to share them with you all.


“Eternal Vigilance is the main artery leading to the heart of all vampire stories. Not since Interview With a Vampire has there been a greater tale of the undead. My mouth became dry reading it. My pulse quickened. This book makes you thirsty for bloodlust. Gabrielle Faust is the queen of vampire fiction.” -Eric Enck, Author of Ghost of a Chance & The Reckoning


“Gabrielle Faust’s new book, Eternal Vigilance, is Haiku pumped to the max! You can smell the roses, but first, you feel the prick of the thorns, and you drink the slow, seeping blood. Lock the door, turn off the telephone, pour a glass of fine Cabernet, get the dog next to your chair, and immerse yourself into Faust’s world…a ’world that fears silence, a culture that never breathes’. In her world, vampires are romantic, street smart, and, yes, dangerously sexy. Trust me, you will enjoy the trip.” – Gary Kent, Director of L.A. Bad & Producer of The House Seven Corpses


I am STILL blushing! Thank you, Eric Enck & Gary Kent, for these amazingly wonderful words about my work!

Getting closer!

I finished the final read of Eternal Vigilance on Sunday and sent it back to Immanion Press! Progress! I love progress! The manuscript has been sent to a select handful of authors and such for the gathering of cover quotes and press materials. Hopefully within the next week and half, we will have everything back and in hand and that means *drum roll please* the book will be headed to print at the beginning of April as planned!! *does happy dance with the bats* During that time, if all goes well, the book will be available for pre-sale via the Immanion Press website, www.immanion-press.com. I’ll make a big announcement when that date is finalized. After that time, when the official release happens, the book will be available via all of the usual suspects such as Amazon.com, online bookstores, etc.
