Not only do I have the honor of AlphaOops: H is for Halloween being a Junior Library Guild Selection, but now I have this awesome lapel pin and a certificate suitable for framing. Squee!!!!! This is *so* way better than making the honor roll. Don’t forget — the release date is July 13, 2010. The publisher may sell out before…
Yes, folks, Mo*Con is this weekend — are you coming? Don’t forget, we’re launching Dark Faith and there’s going to be a massive signing with lots of authors. I’ll also have an artist’s table (which is starting to become something of a tradition for me at Mo*Con), with lots of lovely, affordable art that I’ve been working like gangbusters…
Lee: (at a birthday party Sunday, dancing around with a butterfly wand) I’m a fairy! Kaitlyn: (pictured) You’re not a fairy. You don’t have a dress on. Lee: Maybe it’s Halloween and I’m in disguise! Kaitlyn: It’s not Halloween. Lee: Maybe it is in Fairy Land! Kaitlyn: This is not Fairy Land. Lee: (Stops dancing. Hands over the wand…
The third one is my favorite so far. I love the colors, and how the butterfly stamps contrast without distracting. The story/poem on it says: “Darkest quickly comes the night and hardest brighty burns the light. One and two for counting crows, red and blue for rain’s arced bows. Tried and true and just pretend comes fast the love…
Yes, apparently I am one of *those* writers. I’ve been working on this ghost story for Michael Knost this week, based on a plantation house in West Virginia. First, of course, I had to do a butt-ton of research because I can’t write about somewhere like Mount St. Helens or Harlan, Kentucky without knowing the place like I’d lived…
The long-awaited, highly-anticipated audio version of my Shimmer Clockwork Jungle issue story “The Giant & The Unicorn” is now live! Hooray! I swear I channeled Kate Winslet for this narration. Click here to listen (run time about 19 minutes) and tell me if you think the same. This story is rated G — appropriate for all ages and fun…
As we all gear up for the release of DARK FAITH anthology at the end of the month (it launches at Mo*Con), the Apex Blog will be featuring “daily devotionals” — a quick, five-question interview with each author from the book. Today is my day for being devotional — I admit, I had a bit of fun with my…
New reviews! Title: The Iron King Author: Julie Kagawa EAN: 978-0373210084 Julie Kagawa is one seriously fantastic panel moderator. The first time I did that, I was voted moderator by default since I was the last one to show up to the panel (and the other guests were EVIL). Julie’s first time was also at Hypericon 2009, several years…
Once upon a time, Jodi Lee asked me to write an introduction for a dark little anthology called Courting Morpheus. Since then, The New Bedlam Project has sort of taken on a life of its own (including its very own website — click here to check it out). Three years later (which is like seven minutes in Publishing Time…or…
Jason Sizemore and I have been dancing around the idea of my doing podcast readings for Apex — I had a ton of fun doing the audio versions of “Foiled” and “The Giant & The Unicorn” (from Shimmer — coming soon!) Ladies and gentlemen — the Apex Audio Revolution has come! My first audio ever of SOMEONE ELSE’S WORK…
