“If you’re fans of Sookie Stackhouse and Anita Blake,
don’t miss Betsy Taylor. She rocks” (The Best
Reviews)—and she’s back once again as a vampire queen
who finds herself an unlucky (but fashionable) passenger on
the road to damnation…
Betsy’s heartbroken over
her friend Marc’s death, but at least his sacrifice should
change the future—her future—for the better. But
it’s not as if Betsy’s next few hundred years will be
perfect. After all, her half-sister Laura is the AntiChrist,
Laura’s mother is Satan, and family gatherings will always
be more than a little awkward.
What’s really
bothering Betsy is that ever since she and Laura returned
from visiting her mom in Hell, Laura’s been acting
increasingly peculiar. Maybe it’s Laura’s new job offer: as
Satan’s replacement down under. Unfortunately, the position
comes at a damnable price: killing Betsy, her own
flesh-and-blood.
Over Betsy’s dead body. And for
that matter Marc’s, too, since he’s not quite as buried as
everyone thought. Now a war has been waged—one that’s going
to take sibling rivalry to a whole new level, and a
dimension where only one sister can survive
The reader has to be satisfied with the story or they won't buy the book, but you don't have that problem, all your books are wonderful! (Ann Thaxton 5:02pm June 15, 2012)
"Former trailer trash"!!! What a great phrase, it sounds like something Betsy would say. I ADORE your books and can't wait to read this one. (Christy Keen 5:12pm June 15, 2012)
yes i think we are because if i love a book ,i will read all they have wrote. but if we didn't have great writers we wouldn't get to read so i change to the writer!!! (Jennifer Beck 5:59pm June 15, 2012)
Have never read any of your book, but liked what I read in your blog.Got my attention with "former trailer trash ". (Sheila True 6:09pm June 15, 2012)
As an aspiring writer ,I love reading how writing has changed your life. It's motivation for me thanks! I love the Betsy series. (Tanisha Brown 6:10pm June 15, 2012)
I think that anyone who can be successful doing something they love has the best job there is! I love your books and can't wait to see what happens next! (Amanda Miller 6:16pm June 15, 2012)
I think it's a balance between the writers AND the readers. The writers put their wonderful stories out there hoping to be successful and make the readers fall in love with their characters. The readers make the choice to buy the books and ultimately make the writers successful and (hopefully) want to keep writing. Thank you for the wonderful excerpt from Undead and Unstable!

I can't imagine Betsy and Sinclair not being hot in bed! What's with that? (Diane Sadler 6:47pm June 15, 2012)
I love your posting! I'm lucky that my day job is not a SDJ! If being UNDEAD is not bad enough, being UNDEAD and UNSTABLE must really stink... (Catherine Lee 8:36pm June 15, 2012)
I always love Betsy; now I see where she comes from! Looks like a great next book. (Janie McGaugh 8:51pm June 15, 2012)
Readers are what all authors desire. I love reading my favorite authors, what tips they have and what makes their craft work for them. Great cover. (Alyson Widen 8:53pm June 15, 2012)
Of course we are the most important - without us and books that we buy, writers wouldn't write the type of books that we buy. I've been with you from the very beginning - before fish, mermaids, werewolves, split personalities and Alaskan royalty... Love you!! (MaryAnne Banks 9:05pm June 15, 2012)
Are readers the most important? I have come to the conclusion that the cycle of writing, editing, publishing and reading is a carefully balanced thing. I don't think any one step is more important than the other! (Jennifer Beyer 9:24pm June 15, 2012)
i love books like this i love moonlight,trueblood vampire warewolfe books and dramas so this is right up my alley love to read (Denise Smith 9:38pm June 15, 2012)
The sounds rather juicy...I have never read any of Mary Janice Davidson's books....but am looking forward to reading em...can't wait to get my hands on a copy of 'Undead and Unstable'.......... (Lnda McFarland 11:13pm June 15, 2012)
Can't wait to read more Betsy and Sinclair! I came across your books while browsing the library. So glad I stumbled across them because I love the series. (Kristin Bingham 11:36pm June 15, 2012)
Hi MJ! Us readers are awesome. I'm a little of everything you described. I buy, I listen from the library and I really idolize the awesome writers like you!!! (Molly Wilsbacher 11:46pm June 15, 2012)
Enjoyed your message of gratitude for how writing has improved your life. Congratulations on your success. And thanks for the excerpt! (Gladys Paradowski 11:50pm June 15, 2012)
This is the first time I've read any part of your books, and I have to say that I found it odd and refreshing at the same time. I consider myself very important, because I learn by reading, and I keep your paycheck going, as you say. I would love to read the entire book, and get more familiar with your characters. (Peggy Roberson 11:56pm June 15, 2012)
Congratulations on your success! I think everyone should always have a book near them because you never know when you might have a moment to read. (Maureen Emmons 6:51am June 16, 2012)
Enjoyed reading your blog and excerpt and how writing has changed your life. Can't wait to read this book...sounds like you have another winner! (Linda Luinstra 5:21pm June 16, 2012)
In Ireland and the UK we have public library lending rights, which mean that every time a book is borrowed the author gets a few pence royalties. Some of your books are in my local library - Undead and Unwed etc - so yet another reason to thank your readers! (Clare O'Beara 5:52am June 18, 2012)
