If you’re looking for a happy escape from all that’s going on — and let’s face it, probably some conversation about how books help us… Read more »
Writer + Reader = Magic. (Also, my tour is about to begin!)
One of the secret delights of being the author of three standalone fantasy novels that differ in their protagonist, their emotional tenor, and their pacing is that a lot of readers will tell me which one they prefer. And (astonishingly), readers’ preferences seem to be pretty evenly divided among the three books. It makes me… Read more »
Announcing My Tour for Jane, Unlimited — mark your calendars!

An Introvert Forced to Emulate an Extrovert
Charlie Stross on a book tour reality TV idea. Though just to be clear, my European tour is NOT like what he describes. See my earlier post about the difference between a domestic and an international tour for an American author, at least in my experience. The two are very different; he is describing what… Read more »
Fall Events in Europe and the US
This fall (starting next week! ACK!! Where is Bunter to pack for me!), I’m doing public events in Stockholm, Kristianstad, Madrid, and Paris. (I’ll also be in Amsterdam, but I don’t believe I’ll have any public events there — I’ll come back and let you know if I do.) I’ll also be in Arlington, VA… Read more »
