Cherie, I thought your Boneshaker was awesome, and now I know that you are too. And now I’m eagerly looking forward to reading Kate’s The Boneshaker, cause I love me some steampunk and girl grease-monkeys and Missouri. I wish you both many happy sales.

Thanks for posting this, Cherie. You have been awesome from minute one, but this post is really an
above-and-beyond-the-call level of cool. It’s an honor to share a tremendously awesome title with you.

And to the commenters above–reading Cherie’s initial post last night made my day yesterday. Reading these comments made my day today. :)

How fun! Okay, not that we want anyone to be confused between the two titles, but how delightful to have two similar-but-very-different stand-alone novels to enjoy. I wonder what other -boneshaker- ideas might be out there?
A Voodun priestess and a young podiatrist join forces to battle a necrotic curse that consumes its victims from the ground up…
A trio of young friends pursue their dreams of stardom with the help of a legendary rock n’ roll soundman known as The Boneshaker…
A medical student investigates the seamy underworld of cadaver donations…
A zombie and a necromancer — they fight crime!

Okay, I’ll stop. ;)

I *loved* BONESHAKER, and from your description, I think I’ll pick up Kate’s THE BONESHAKER, too. Spread the love.

Cherie,
I’m a fan/reader. I’ve been following your blog and your career with some interest as I start to work on my own novel. I’ve enjoyed seeing what energy and effort it takes for a writer to get not only their first book, but their second, third, ect. off the ground. I look forward to reading Boneshaker (when I return from India). ANYWAYS… I’d like to say that its really refreshing to see someone such as yourself be incredibly supportive of another writer. Well done.

Working a bookstore part-time (as I sometimes do) I’d come across Ms. Milford’s to-be-released book in our database, and had indeed wondered about it. Good to hear that there’s no hard feelings or complications involved. :)
I do hope this mention from you helps give her a little push. I know I’m more likely to nab the book myself, now (though I’d been seriously intrigued by the cover art and descriptive blurb already).
