All About Me. Again.
Just a quick note today to say I’ve got an interview over on Songlian’s LJ. –> https://songlian-novera.livejournal.com/ Feel free to stop by and take a look! (Songlian is one of my super-awesome peeps over at my Petals & Thorns forum and sent me these questions like…months ago? >_< Sorry, chica!)…

First Pass Pages!
I have to admit there’s something very, very cool about actually seeing a book really start to come together. My FPPs came in on Saturday – and essentially it’s the book, set with the fancy type-set that will be used when it goes to print. And hey, look! I have a *faery* for each of my chapter headings!!! 🙂 (The pages aren’t bound, but you can see the edges where they would be cut for the real thing.) I get a few weeks now to do another proof-read and make sure the changes I wanted got added (or removed) and that there aren’t any glaring typos or mistakes. And awesomely enough the due date pretty much coincides with the weekend I’m heading up to New York anyway (and having lunch with Danielle and Suzie, yay!), so I’ll be able to save on postage and just hand it to Danielle directly.…

More Cover Pimpage
So my awesomesauce editor, Danielle, was kind enough to overnight me a stack of solicitation covers over the weekend. (Larger shot below). In case you don’t know, a solicitation cover is what the publisher sends out as part of their promo packages to booksellers – it’s basically the entire cover, including the back blurb. (And embossing on the front, in my case! And Phin on the back!) Sort of hammers home the reality here a bit for me, which I really, really dig. I will probably be giving some away in a little bit as I get closer to publication date, but I’m also going to frame a copy or two for the family. (Ideally, I think I’ll do that for each of the books as they come out – put them in my office or something.)…

I Can Haz Cover!!
Here we go folks! The official cover for A Brush of Darkness!** I’ve noticed it’s been popping up in various places on the web, so since the cat’s out of the bag I get to pimp it here now.* (And oddly enough, it’s on Goodreads already…but not Amazon. Go figure.) Now forgive me while I run off to go squee madly. * Thank you Google Alerts! (and Sordid Fantasy for posting!) ** Official cover, but not technically final – there’s always a chance it could still be changed.…

The Moon That Has No Mistress
Apparently I’ve been in a closet the last few months (editing, ha), but it has come to my attention that The Last Unicorn is being released in graphic novel form! Seeing as it’s one of the most brilliant books ever written, I’m super excited. They are coming out as a set of 6 comics, which you can order from IDW. Or, if you’re an obsessive fan of the book, you can subscribe to the series from Conlan Press (and get them signed by Peter S. Beagle too!) I will go back to my forest too, but I do not know if I will live contentedly there, or anywhere. I have been mortal, and some part of me is mortal yet. I am full of tears and hunger and the fear of death, though I cannot weep, and I want nothing, and I cannot die. I am not like the others…
