[food|writing] Open dinner in Baltimore, plus a cool foreign rights sale
Last night's open dinner here in Baltimore was great, good fun. There were fifteen of us, including me and Lisa Costello. @psursi took photos!
Good conversation, though as always with these things it's a little hard to talk with an entire table at once. Good folks, a few old friends and a bunch of new ones. In more-or-less around the table order, we had John Zaharick, Karlo Yeager, Mark Siegal, curiouseve and duelce, Beth Tanner, Rip, Jeff Young, cypherindigo, Lisa Nohealani Morton and Chris, @psursi and his wife Stephanie, and Deanna Hoak and her daughter. What a great crowd. We talked about some fun stuff, and some serious stuff, and enjoyed semi-Irish pub grub at Ryan's Daughter.

In other news, I am pleased to announce that via my agent Jennifer Jackson, Hayakawa Publishing has acquired Japanese magazine rights for my Mainspring novella "Chain of Stars," which they intend to publish in the November 2012 issue of SF Magazine.
My thanks again to Subterranean Press for giving that story a market home in the first place.
