I don't know if it's intentional, but starting today, 4/20, the e-book for KARMA DOLL is $3.99. 4/20 is the perfect date for a sale for this book and for any of the DOLL books, really...Whoever might see this post, I hope you're faring alright during this time in history...

Got a glimpse of the first draft, though it looks finished to me, of the UK cover for KARMA DOLL, which comes out in England on July 3. This cover depicts the Mexican desert part of the novel and the American cover depicts an atmospheric river event, which takes place in Los Angeles...
