I clicked through on to SF Signal<\/a> last night—a regular blog stop for me these days and perhaps worth checking out if you haven’t already—and saw that they had a new ‘Mind Meld’ up—on the oh so fascinating topic of Book Trailers<\/a>!<\/p>\n

And there are some equally fascinating commentators, including my good friend and fellow author, Mary Victoria<\/a>—carrying the banner for the Antipodes and the ladies!—as well as E.D. deBirmingham,\u00a0 Cooper Moo and Mark Teppo, all from The Mongoliad project, Scott Sigler, and Simon Spanton of Orion Publishing.<\/p>\n

I think there are some very interesting points-of-view included and the only sector I feel is clearly missing is that of Paranormal Romance—because I know my writing colleagues, the very savvy ladies of the Supernatural Underground<\/a>, have considerable experience of book trailers!<\/p>\n

But still, this latest Mind Meld is well worth a read—if only to see the amusing trailer from Neal Stephenson and the team at The Mongoliad project!<\/p>\n

You can check it out Right Here<\/a>.<\/h3>\n
