MySecretRomanceBookReviews is doing a giveaway and review of THE LOVE OF MY (OTHER) LIFE.

Reviewer Janna seemed to enjoy the novel, and wrote, “I loved the idea of there being an alternate universe where another version of you exists as well as the person you are meant to be with. …You never know what will happen, and who will point you to the love of your life, but sometimes the unexpected and unbelievable can lead you to your happiness.”

Meantime, Italian Blogger PleaseAnotherBook reviewed my dystopian novel COLD LIGHT very favorably. My Italian isn’t what it should be, I’m a little out of practice, but “La Slatton ha creato una distopia sconvolgente e incredibilmente avvincente che tiene incollato il lettore alla pagina”  roughly translates to “Slatton has created a shocking and addictive dystopian world that keeps you glued to the page.”

SHOUT OUT to Krishna Das on the Grammy’s!!

Hare Krishna, everyone, May love be with you.

Talk Supe Blog Tour Stop & Another great band

Posted on:

TALK SUPE, “a blog about the wonderful world of vampires, weres, fae, witchcraft and everything else in between,” hosted THE LOVE OF MY (OTHER) LIFE today. Braine gave the review, and it is smart! I really enjoyed some of her comments:

About Brian building a decohering device to travel to our universe and meet Tessa, she wrote, “Really dorky but I bet that’s what Shah Jahan’s people said when he went and built the Taj Mahal in memory of his third wife, Mumtaz Mahal. The thought is so weird, grand and romantic.”

Regarding the overall story, she said, “Despite belonging in two different worlds with barely anything in common, THE LOVE OF MY (OTHER) LIFE is another story on how love can make us do great things and change the landscape of our lives in ways we cannot even begin to imagine“and “THE LOVE OF MY (OTHER) LIFE was a smart, hilarious and fast read.”

She’s got a giveaway going on, one paperback and one eBook, so enter here and Good Luck!

Meantime, since I posted the Youtube video of Romeo’s Daughter yesterday, I thought I’d post another band I discovered recently. This is 2Cellos: two Serbian kids with Cellos. Check them out here.

It’s Day 5 of the BlogTour and things are lively!

Click here to see my guest post on RomanceJunkies–some musings on why I wrote THE LOVE OF MY (OTHER) LIFE and how algorithms can’t encompass human life.

Here is the posting in which Just Judy Jumbles gave 5 Stars to THE LOVE OF MY (OTHER) LIFE. She wrote: “Great story. We see it told through Tessa’s eyes in her universe and through Brian’s eyes as to what had happened in the past in his universe. The author did a great job of stirring the emotions with the ending. And there are some surprising twists and turns as well.”

And here is where to follow RomanceJunkies and JudyDV on Twitter.

Meantime, noted reviewer Harriet Klausner gave 5 Stars to THE LOVE OF MY (OTHER) LIFE, saying “This is an entertaining romantic science fiction frolic… Readers will enjoy their changing relationship as love proves to be the most powerful force in the Slatton multiverse.” Some people have a problem with Klausner, but I have always found her reviews thoughtful and well-written.

To all: JOY OF READING!!

And do remember to listen to David Sklar’s hit song UNIVERSAL LOVE written for THE LOVE OF MY (OTHER) LIFE.

UNIVERSAL LOVE: David Sklar’s Hit Song for THE LOVE OF MY (OTHER) LIFE

Posted on:

So my friend, the talented composer David Sklar, loved the original screenplay for THE LOVE OF MY (OTHER) LIFE. He wrote a song for it, UNIVERSAL LOVE. Take a listen, it’s great! Check out David’s website at www.davidsklarmusic.com.

Also: Day 4 of the Blog Tour:  Simpson’s Paradox calls THE LOVE OF MY (OTHER) LIFE a “cute sci-fi romance.” See the review and ebook giveaway here.

Meg, who posted the review, declined to post the cover, saying, “This post is part of The Love of My (Other) Life blog book tour but you do not get any cover art here because it has a butt on the cover, and I don’t want your bookshelf to start getting too promiscuous.” (Which is a sly pun, in the context of her review.)

It’s fine with me if your bookshelf is promiscuous. My bookshelf is an unredeemed slut. Here’s the cover. Enjoy.

Posted on:

My Fiction Nook: Traci L. Slatton – The Love of my (other) Life – B…: Today, we welcome Traci L. Slatton and her novel The Love Of My (Other) Life . From the blurb: The latest offering from critically…

DAY 2 of the Blog Tour!

A little Q&A:

Q: What’s the deal with Brian at Yale and Brian in NYC?

A: We get to see Brian Tennyson in a few chapters set in his universe. Chapters 2, 4, 6, 8, 11, 15 & 27 take place in a world where the same choices have been faced, but different decisions were made…. The rest of the novel shows Brian here in our world.

Q: What’s Tessa’s first impression of Brian?

A: That he’s a scruffy homeless man, but not bad looking, with a smile on his face. And that she should be more creeped out by him than she is…. Q: How long does Brian have to see Tessa and convince her that they’re married in his universe?

A: 5 days, 4 hours, and 22 minutes. Not a second more. There’s slime involved.

Q: What’s special about Brian?

A: Absotively, posilutely a lot! He’s a big-hearted physics genius who builds a device for traveling into parallel worlds. But he’s terrible at cooking, singing, and performing magic. He’s also a hugger. And a devoted husband.

Amazon Link, and The First Blog Tour Review, for THE LOVE OF MY (OTHER) LIFE

Amazon Link, and The First Blog Tour Review, for THE LOVE OF MY (OTHER) LIFE

Posted on:

It’s been hard to find, so here it is: The Love of My (Other) Life on Amazon.

I’m an indie press published author who publishes through both LightningSource and Createspace–and Amazon doesn’t play nice with LSI. Though rumor has it that LSI will be printing some of Amazon’s books, which will only be a good thing. LSI prints good books. But sometimes authors like me, the little fish in the big publishing pond, run afoul of Amazon’s muscle flexing. The new novel suffered that way, and was suddenly unfindable. So here’s the link to it.

And here’s a fun review from Day 1 of the Book Blog Tour. Chicklitplus had some fun things to say about THE LOVE OF MY (OTHER) LIFE, including that it was “too cute for words.” Also that “This book is a riot and I really enjoyed it.” Read the review here.

I was so interested when I first read the synopsis for the book and slightly thought it would read like a sci-fi novel. Well, if you are worried like I was, there is no need because this book is too cute for words. I instantly felt the spark when Tessa and Brian met and although it sounds odd, I believed him when he was he was from another universe from the get-go. This book is a riot and I really enjoyed it. I loved the conversations and the heart-felt-moments between the two main characters and I thought Traci did an amazing job at creating such likeable characters. Overall, this book is a winner and a fun ride!
