September 1, 2009—Black is for Beginnings Hits Bookstore Shelves Everywhere!


The fifth chapter in the story of young spellcasting lovers Stacey and Jacob is here. Black is for Beginnings—a graphic novel—was released into eager hands today as Flux took its first excited step into the graphic novel market. We are as excited as you, believe me.
The fifth installment offers both a new format and never-before-seen details behind Stacey's past, and what lies ahead for her and Jacob. Remember, the last time we saw Jacob, things weren't going so great for him. Ever since he lost his memory, Jacob hasn't been able to remember Stacey—his own soul mate. He leaves Massachusettes, returning to his childhood home in Colorado, hoping to jog his memory. What he remembers is Kira, his ex-girlfriend. As Jacob works to piece together his past, will there be room for Stacey in his future?
Black is for Beginnings has gotten readers, reviewers and booksellers talking....and anticipating its much-speculated ending. To celebrate this debut, you may have noticed your local Barnes and Noble Booksellers carrying displays that feature the entire Blue is for Nightmares series in the YA section. Yes, that's right—at Barnes and Nobles across the country, Stacey and Jacob are sulking at the end of the aisle, just daring you to sink your teeth into the series.
