I promised myself this blog was going to be an ongoing series of essays and conversations on a variety of topics — writing, science fiction & fantasy, authorship & intellectual property in the 21st Century, the remix as metaphor for the art of our age, occasional reports on events and the status of books & various projects. What I promised myself it would not be is a billboard for me and my work. We already get more than enough spam in our lives without me adding to the heap, I think.
But. I just didn’t anticipate was how crazy the week of Elegy Beach’s release was going to be. I hope you will forgive me if I just yield to the inevitable this week and report on what’s going on with Elegy Beach. (I have no report on World Fantasy Con because there’s simply nothing to report about it.) I’ll get back to our regularly scheduled programming after the weekend, I promise.
Here’s the latest:
- My essay for John Scalzi’s The Big Idea
- The Book Smugglers interview with me
- The Book Smugglers review of Elegy Beach
- Cory Doctorow’s review of Elegy Beach on Boingboing
- Signing & launch party at Mysterious Galaxy Bookshop in San Diego tonight at 7:00 PM
