Orson Welles was born on this day in 1915. One of the most brilliant things he said (and he said many), I used as an epigraph for my 2022 novel, THE LIONESS.

Hey, look what eBook is on sale for only $1.99? That's less than I pay for my morning maple cream cheese danish after walking my beloved dog, Jesse!
The correct caption is:
A) This is an author talking about his childhood on day 12 of a book tour.
B) This is a toddler in his Dad‘s Suit who didn‘t get his cake at his birthday party.
C) A tiara‘s a really good look on a bald man.
I‘m blessed to get great book tour gifts on the road. I thank all my readers so much. But a special shoutout has to go a pair of sisters for a very cool shot glass (in Tampa) and Arak (in Doylestown)#

Thank you, St. Louis Post-Dispatch, for today‘s wonderful review of THE PRINCESS OF LAS VEGAS: “Riveting... Same old same old isn‘t something you get from Chris Bohjalian. No ruts for this author... Bohjalian nails the seedy atmosphere of Las Vegas off the strip.” — Gail Pennington, St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Wearing a tiara in celebration, because (indeed) I never want to be the “same old same old.” On sale in days!
Celebrating the first newspaper review of THE PRINCESS OF LAS VEGAS! Thank you Chris Hewitt and the Minneapolis Star Tribune: “Bohjalian has a type. His recent thrillers are about glamorous, imperiled women who may not be trustworthy but whose senses of humor makes us like them anyway…[He] writes with verve and humor, and his depiction of a seedy, past-its prime casino feels just right…[and he] keeps us guessing until the end.” Seven days now!
I‘ve read this book at least five times, and just finished listening to the late, great bulldog narrate it — and share updates of his life since the book was published. How is it that I had ALL THE FEELS yet again?
Phoenix Books rocks! Still time to preorder your princess 👑 AND your queen 👑 — and maybe win some swag! Click here: https://www.phoenixbooks.biz/princess-las-vegas-chris-bohjalian?fbclid=PAAaZT01s...
So grateful to the New York Times: THE PRINCESS OF LAS VEGAS was one of their “15 Books Coming in March.” They wrote, “Subsisting on Adderall and Valium, a slim, beautiful Princess Diana impersonator makes a good living in Vegas until the day her estranged sister shows up, setting in motion a thriller that involves organized crime, unscrupulous cryptocurrency bros and shady politicians.” Preorder wherever you buy your books!
