Signed Copy by the Author

If you'd like a personalized, signed copy of Minions of Dominance ~ I can do that! The hardcover book is 24.95 and I will pay for the shipping. At the bottom of this page is a link to half.com, once you're there you can either search by title or ISBN# 9781615463398. It is still being released,
so it might take a week or so to be listed, but I did send in a request for half.com to list it, just check once a week or so until you find it -it will eventually be there. The publishing company has given me a 4-6 week time frame for delivery. So, once you order, please allow 4-6 weeks for delivery since it's a hardcover. If you don't care about that and just want a soft cover, they are being shipped out immediately and you can get those from PublishAmerica and Barnes & Noble.
Be sure to please include an email with your name, address and who I should make out the inscription to. You can use the email address shown on this blog site.
Thanks again for all your tremendous support!! Merri

"Hi All, Hope everyone is enjoying your summer vacation and time with your children. I just wanted to let you all know that M. L. Nelson, my wonderful neighbor, let me read her book before it was published. It is GREAT...

Life is so weird!

If you'd told me last year that I'd see my book as a selection on Barnes & Noble I would have laughed - but there it is. We never know what's around the corner do we? Thanks again to all of you facebook friends and the emails from friends far away for the encouraging words and support! You're the best!

PublishAmerica Presents Minions of Dominace by M.L. Nelson

Frederick, MD June 25, 2009 -- PublishAmerica is proud to present Minions of Dominace by M.L. Nelson.

Grace is a writer investigating strange deaths all with a common denominator: the only thing stolen from each crime scene was a statue from a set called Minions of Dominance. She discovers that one of her leads not only knows of them, but Roman Beset has a pair. He can’t believe she looks exactly like his long-lost love, Alessi. Together, Grace and Roman become tangled in a demon/vampire plot for Armageddon. Will they be able to stop it? Moreover, what will Grace do when she finds out that not only is Roman descended from “true witches,” but he’s the son of a vicious ancient vampire, making him a rare dhampir with incredible magic powers. The animal attraction they have for each other is undeniable and the action is suspenseful all the way to the surprise ending.

M. L. Nelson is a native Californian and lives in the Monterey Bay area with her family and two precocious Pomeranians: Dollie and Zoe (aka Ping Ping).

New to blogging

I'm new to blogging, but with the publishing of my second book, Minions of Servitude, I thought I'd better start something in connection with it! Here you can find what's coming in the next book and tell me your thoughts on the Dhampir soap opera!! Enjoy!

Dog gone dogs!

Zoe really does carry a Gatorade bottle around the house (her favorite is a green liter 7up bottle), pushing it with her nose across the tile in the kitchen and being as noisy as she can possibly be. She never stops moving and loves to put her ratty 'ol tennis ball in the dishwasher as I'm loading it, insisting I throw it a hundred times a day. Sometimes, I have to lock her behind baby gates in the kitchen just to catch my breath!







Here's my crazy Pomeranians: Dollie and Zoe (aka: PingPing) In Minions of Dominance, PingPing is perfectly Zoe...
