If you want to peel back the days:

• Part 1 of this
• Part the second 

And, would wait to post this until Monday or Tuesday, but the cool pics keep stacking up. If I wait any longer, this post won’t load. So, without me making this post any longer with boring words, let’s get to the snapshots:

Mongrels isn’t only with a book about the Black Hills, but . . . see how that’s where this wolf is going? He knows where’s good. He knows where matters.

And, way east o…

I mean, I figured SOMEONE needed to step up, answers all Mongrels questions. Then I figured, hey, wait: that’s me. So I did:

…

Me in my office, playing with all things werewolf related. At least those I could reach without getting out of the camera’s eye. Also some talking, some reading, some injudicious swaying from side to side, like I just spilled koolaid on the couch but nobody knows about it, and I really-really need to get outside, like acres away, and play for about fifty-four hours:

…

This is the second batch of these. First’s here. So let’s start with:

Thanks to Lesa Pascavis Smith on facebook for that. I dig how nervous the werewolf is—how not to be, right?

Little Shop of Stories stands Mongrels up on the table, even:

How Mongrels looks with cool boots:

How it looks while being read:

How it looks on a t-shirt (there were six or eight copies of Mongrels printed up way before the ARCs, and this is pretty much the covers they had):

Click the t-shirt to g…

Was supposed to be just, you know, fun. But then the news services got hold of it:

I don’t even know if it finally sold any Mongrels, really.

And here’s a grab from the Daily Mail—much the same, just, without the Newcastle Beerwolf:

And all the English-speaking places over there—Aus, NZ, wherever. Turkey too, soon, but I haven’t seen that one yet.

Anyway, to proper-launch Mongrels over there, SciFiNow talked about Mongrels—so cool:

And, talking this UK Mongrels, like, the artifactness of it, there’s . . .

• different color, different height/dimensions:

  

• the coolest (HarperVoyager) crescent moon, that I had to re-angle the book ei

Always fun, talking to smart people on the television:

Not what I listened to while Mongrels-writing, but some songs that synch up well with Mongrels, I think. Which you can cue up just on Spotify, here*. Also, before I get to annotating and embedding and pulling my hair about because the versions I want aren’t available, etc, I also put together a Youtube playlist—different stuff, same vein—here* (also, no guarantees there isn’t a bit of overlap between Youtube and Spotify—I get really clicky about werewolf songs…

There came a point in writing Mongrels where I realized, DUDE: you can’t have them driving a Buick in two chapters in a row! Werewolves don’t have brand loyalty, they drive whatever’s at hand. So began what I call the travails: google-image searching for like two bleary-eyed, numb-fingered days, until I’d not only put all the Chevrolets the proper distance from each other, but I’d set eyeballs (these) on pretty much the exact car for each cha…

Didn’t think to start nabbing these pics until a day or two ago, so I’m sure there’s a lot of great and perfect ones out there. And, hope I’m not stepping on any toes, reposting them. If so, let me know? I’ll delete, or crop your name out (or mine?). Just snagged them off social media, usually. Twitter (#), Litsy, FB, maybe another place or two, who knows.

Anyway, in no kind of order, and with the poster’s name when I could screencap it in:
