Hey folks – just a quick heads up from yours truly. Tonight at the University Book Store (on the UW campus here in Seattle), the amazing C.E. Murphy will be reading and signing. I regret to admit that I can’t attend the event due to a previous commitment, but I do hope that Seattle will turn out in force and make her feel welcome.

In other news, and quickly, with bullet points:


  • War Rocket Ajax and Me – Tonight, starting at 9:30 east coast time, 6:30 west coast time … I’ll be nattering on with the incomparable Chris Sims on such diverse topics as Batman, steampunk, cats, and booty-shaking. Please! Tune in for a listen! I promise I will not be very drunk.

  • Boneshaker at Amazon – Got a few new reviews up — a couple of them just in the last day or so. Many thanks to those of you who posted them! And, of course, if anyone else feels like chiming in with a few stars, that’d be awesome. In all seriousness, I’m overwhelmed by the reaction to this book, and so immensely grateful that folks are willing to recommend it and share it. Makes me wanna grab the whole bunch of you and give you big, squishy hugs.

  • Speaking of Boneshaker – Tomorrow around lunchtime I’ll be at the University Book Store signing the latest round of mail-order requests. So if you’d like a copy of the book signed to you — or to someone else, hey, stocking stuffers! — there’s no time like the present to put in an order. I’m not saying that if you order later I won’t sign it or anything; I’m just saying that I only go down there about once a week … so if you want a book signed and shipped in a particularly speedy fashion, well, here’s your heads up re: my jaunting schedule.

  • Don’t forget: Steampunk Exhibition Ball – This Saturday, starting at 8:00 p.m. at Seattle’s Museum of History and Industry. By way of making this an official update and not merely a pestery reminder, let it be known that I’ll be reading at 10:00 p.m. on the Parlour Stage. I don’t know where the Parlour Stage is, but I gotta admit — I like the sound of it.

  • Oh wait one more thing about Boneshaker (sorry!) – The Ramblings of a Bibliophile blog has posted a most excellent review, for which I extend my copious thanks! It’s a long review, but none too spoilery — and it results in five out of five stars … so baby, you know I’m not complaining.
