I’m nearly done with A Player’s Heart, the f/f romance game I’ve been writing for Choice of Games - and that’s a good thing, because I’m starting to ramp up my summer schedule.

First off, I’ll be at Balticon May 24-27. I’m not on a lot of panels, but I will be doing a reading and an autographing, and Doug Warden has asked me to be part of his ( Read more... )

This is a busy summer for me: not only do I have projects in hand and deadlines approaching, but I’ve had books out, and I’m traveling for a couple of appearances. I’ll start with those first.

July 11 at 7PM I’ll be at Pandemonium Books in Cambridge, MA for a signing/short reading celebrating the release of Point of Sighs. Pandemonium is an ( Read more... )

This post is terribly overdue, thanks to a bout of con crud that had a colleague sticking her head into my office as I hacked and coughed to say with great sympathy, “Hairball?” But enough cool things happened that it seemed that ‘better late than never’ definitely applied ( Read more... )

Once again, I’m going to be an author guest at Shore Leave - anyone else who’s going to be there, I’ll be at the Meet-the-Authors event Friday (with books to sell/sign!) and also on assorted panels ( Read more... )

I have been at conventions or a writing retreat for the last three weekends, and am finally coming up for air. It has been fun and busy and potentially profitable, but I am also looking forward to a weekend in which I can take things a little more easily.

( Shore Leave! )

An odd thing happened at last weekend’s Shore Leave convention, one that’s left me feeling I need to clarify something I said. I was on a panel on LGBT characters in SF, which - like many of the panels at this year’s Shore Leave - clearly involved some confusion among the panelists and audience as to what the panel was supposed to be about. The ( Read more... )

Me, too!  However, as a distraction, let me offer you - a book sale! Thanks to Don Sakers, for the week of WorldCon, August 14-20, 8 authors are offering 7 books at vastly discounted prices. Both The Armor of Light and Death By Silver are featured, at .99 and 3.99 respectively, and they're joined by Jo Graham's The Emperor's Agent, Geonn Cannon's ( Read more... )

It’s been a busy few weeks, but mostly behind-the-scenes busy rather than announcement-producing busy. That said, I do have a couple of things to mention.  First, Year’s Best SF 31 is now available. My story “Finders” is included, along with a fairly amazing range of stories. Next, the audio edition of Silver Bullet is also available - magic, ( Read more... )

Once again, Don Sakers and I will be teaming up for Tea From Four Worlds, a book launch party at Balticon - this Saturday, May 24, from noon to 2.  We will be serving teas appropriate to our books as well as light snacks, and giving away gift bundles that will contain a book, a different appropriate tea, and various other goodies.  And of course we ( Read more... )

Shore Leave was a blast, not least because of the number of folks I met from LJ.  It was also a very busy con. Not only was I on a ton of panels, but there were a ton of panels I wanted to see, actors I wanted to hear, friends to touch base with, and the masquerade.  It went off extremely well - a tip of the hat to con co-chair Inge Heyer, who was ( Read more... )
