C’est Bon

Some quick notes:

  • The French edition of Ariel will be published by Bibliotheque in January 2012. No cover yet, but I will post as soon as I get it. Can’t wait to see it.
  • The French edition of Elegy Beach will follow in June 2012. Is it weird to have entire books full of something I wrote that I can’t understand? Yes. (The pundit in me feels compelled to say that my books in English are probably full of writing that no one can understand either.)
  • Mortality Bridge is apparently in print and shipping. This is six weeks ahead of what I expected and I’m caught a bit offguard, as I had geared my relentless media onslaught for the end of July. (Curse you for going off the air, Oprah!)
  • I am late turning in the next Mortality Bridge audio chapter for the website. Yes. I plead extenuating circumstances.
  • My Big Idea essay on Mortality Bridge for John Scalzi’s wonderful Whatever blog will be posted on July 28.

  1. I got a mystery shipping notice from Subterranean the other day and I was like… what is this? Nothing I ordered is supposed to ship until July! But I guess I know what to look for now. Can’t wait to read it.

  2. So I just happened to be on Scalzi’s blog and saw a post for your book, Mortality Bridge, from the excerpts I have read so far it seems pretty awesome and I can’t wait to buy it and read it.

    1. K– Amazing timing, as about 10 seconds ago I hit “publish” on my post about John’s wonderful review & recommendation on Whatever. He’s the best.

      I’m delighted you liked the excerpts, and thank you so much for buying the novel! I’ll be posting a Big Idea on Whatever at the end of July giving some background and history about the book.

      Thank you again!

  3. I would love to read Mortality Bridge but I do all of my reading now on my Nook. Without an epub version of the entire book I am unwilling to buy it. There is only so much space in my house and I needed to convert to ebooks to reclaim the space of nearly 2000 books. I got rid of a lot of books I no longer read and acquired ebook versions of those I do reread.

    Please encourage your publishers to publish an epub version.
