I’m loading the iPod for Tuesday’s Worldwide Book Launch Party over on #DevilColony. We’re starting to hang the streamers here on The Devil-ish Playground and the buzz is building. Yesterday, we discussed the all-important SNACKS.
How is your party prep coming?
By now, you’re cued in to the HUGE Twitter launch party for James Rollins’ new book, The Devil Colony…details are here. Plus, here’s a quick timeline of this launch:
- Kristen Lamb and James Rollins are friends – she suggests a Worldwide Launch Party and interviews James.
- He embraces the Book Launch idea and Kristen reaches out to her #myWANA tweeps.
- Jenny (that’s me!), Gene, Tiffany, Piper, Terrell, and Clay put out a variety of Devil Blogs
- Excitement builds, day by day, as people ready for the 24 hour long #DevilColony extravaganza!
- There are now SO many cool places to visit that I’m putting them all together for a Monday More Cowbell Mash-up extraordinaire! My early favorites are all of the above AND…
- Sonia Medeiros (hilarious) – The Devil’s in the Launch Party

Great list, Jenny! Wow. Thanks for putting it together.
Personally, I’ll be dancing to The Devil Went Down to Georgia. It’s the music of my people. What a fun event!

LOL…the music of “your people” – that is soooo funny. I guess mine are more the “Running with the Devil” sort.
Thanks for the morning laugh!

Hi, Jenny! Great list, and thanks for the shout-out! Since I already started a series last week of religious detectives for Masters of Mystery Monday (starting with Father Dowling), it seems only fitting that I continue it tomorrow, in honor of Devil Colony: Sister Fidelma.
Gotta keep you little devils in check, lol. I’ll be linking back to all of you, so the mystery fans can get in on the James Rollins book launch party, too!

Oooooh, yes-yes-yes! The mystery crowd definitely needs to be represented at the party! And of course you get the shout-out…that Terry Gibbs song is a classic. 🙂

I’ll be singing along with The Devil Went Down to Georgia, too. The rest of my songs aren’t so much about the devil as in and around him. If you know what I mean. Some favs are Living Dead Girl by Rob Zombie and Don’t Fear the Reaper by The Blue Oyster Cult.

Ooooh, Don’t Fear the Reaper should absolutely have been on my list! I mean, hellooo…More Cowbell skit. I’m showing my blonde this weekend!
