SLAVE TO SENSATION
Nalini Singh
Berkley / September 2006
Welcome to a future where emotion is a crime and powers of the mind clash brutally against those of the heart.
Sascha Duncan is one of the Psy, a psychic race that has cut off its emotions in an effort to prevent murderous insanity. Those who feel are punished by having their brains wiped clean, their personalities and memories destroyed.
Lucas Hunter is a Changeling, a shapeshifter who craves sensation, lives for touch. When their separate worlds collide in the serial murders of Changeling women, Lucas and Sascha must remain bound to their identities — or sacrifice everything for a taste of darkest temptation.

Okay, I’ve discovered that I can’t any of the links to work on this page so it might be my machine. I’ll check back later to see if other are able to do it.
CindyS – too brain dead right now to figure this out!

The excerpt link at the end doesn’t work. I think you need the http in with the url.
Aug 20, 2006 @ 09:04:49
Thanks Nicole. All fixed.
Aug 20, 2006 @ 12:38:30
I’ll post this tomorrow, I already have two posts up today! This should be very successful methinks!
Aug 20, 2006 @ 13:19:12
I’m in and linked!
Aug 20, 2006 @ 13:24:49
I posted this on my site, too. Verra interesting.
Aug 20, 2006 @ 13:37:45
OK, I put it up, seeing as I’ll probably be MIA til Wednesday!
Aug 20, 2006 @ 13:39:32
Oh, how do I track back?
Aug 20, 2006 @ 13:52:29
I put it up, but my blog platform doesn’t do trackbacks — the link is here.
Aug 20, 2006 @ 15:41:35
What a great idea! I’ve set my entry to post tomorrow morning. I’ve been looking forward to this book ever since I saw the cover. It sounds fanastic!
Aug 20, 2006 @ 16:57:55
The book sounds fantastic! I’d like to be a part of this : )
Aug 20, 2006 @ 16:58:00
I’m in… are track-backs supposed to show up in the comments field or are you guys getting notifications just by email?
Aug 20, 2006 @ 17:36:24
Unfortunately, Nonny, my trackbacks don’t seem to be working, but i am keeping track here
Aug 20, 2006 @ 17:57:40
Ok, done!
This is such a great idea!
Aug 20, 2006 @ 19:00:12
I participated, but can’t get the picture to load. Tried about 6 times and gave up. Everything else posts. Does that work?
Aug 20, 2006 @ 19:26:56
I’m done! Although I have no idea how to Trackback! The link is

Because experiments are fun!…
I am participating in a blogging experiment hosted at dearauthor.com. What fun!…

So, I’m a huge dunce because I couldn’t figure out why the ‘code’ page didn’t have the HTML tags all showing so I could paste it in my HTML window. You guys have magic shit that you just paste in the dummy mode. Super cool.
Yeah, so I just posted at my blog

I posted it but I’m not smart enough to work the trackbacks…okay, I don’t even know what those are.
*hiding in corner with dunce blogging cap on*
Aug 21, 2006 @ 08:11:41
Posted this in my blog as well, though I’m also not sure how to do trackbacks.
It can be found here
Aug 21, 2006 @ 09:17:30
Don’t feel bad, Mandy, there’s plenty of us in the same (Trackback) boat with you. Is it simply a link back to the original post? Is it html code we need to put in? Is it already built in and we did it but don’t know it? LOL! Inquiring minds are waiting to be educated!!!
Aug 21, 2006 @ 09:21:12
Put the code up at:

Theoretically, trackbacks are simply links in a post that “trackback” to the original post. The magical link is supposed to be in the code and sometimes it is working and sometimes not, but I think I am still catching every one. :)
Aug 21, 2006 @ 09:58:40
Blog it!
Although I have a question.
The Code link to downloard for posting isn’t really a html code? Or am I assuming something?
Anyway I got all the links in!

Thanks!
Aug 21, 2006 @ 15:06:20
I blogged it today. :)
Aug 21, 2006 @ 15:46:06
As a new-ish author myself, I’m always up for an experiment like this. It’s up on my MySpace blog.
Aug 21, 2006 @ 18:08:05

missy
Aug 21, 2006 @ 21:43:59

Aug 22, 2006 @ 00:34:23
Hey Nalini,
This is a great idea. How cool.
I’ve got you blogged on both my
Sienna blog and my Ember blog.
Not sure about the trackback code
though. Hope it worked. K, so I
admit I’m an HTML dummy. LOL.
Good luck with the book.

You’re up at my blog, Nalini! I’m another trackback eejit, but I got the cover, blurb and excerpt link going.
Aug 23, 2006 @ 07:04:38
I’d like to be a part of this
Aug 23, 2006 @ 07:40:30
This is on my blog. :-) Sounds terrific!
Aug 23, 2006 @ 09:25:24
Count me in this! The post is up at a bookworm’s diary
And like others before me, I’ve no idea what trackbacks/permalinks are. Help!
Aug 23, 2006 @ 14:01:04
I just wanted to let you know that’s it’s up on my blog as well. Blogger help tells me they do not support trackbacks, I will attempt to permalink later.
Aug 23, 2006 @ 16:45:50
I have posted it on my LiveJournal site.
Here is my link with the information http://prettylindy.livejournal.com/
