About this author

Tina Connolly lives in Portland, Oregon, in a house that came with a dragon in the basement and blackberry vines in the attic. Her stories have appeared in Strange Horizons, Lightspeed, and Beneath Ceaseless Skies, and the anthology UNPLUGGED: Web's Best SF 2008. Her novel IRONSKIN is out from Tor in Fall 2012, with a sequel in 2013. She is a frequent reader for Podcastle, and narrates the Parsec-winning flash fiction podcast Toasted Cake. In the summer she works as a face painter, which means a glitter-filled house is an occupational hazard. She likes re-reading books and eating pie for breakfast (preferably at the same time.)

Tina Connolly Hi Nobonita! So sorry, but I just tried to list it and apparently Goodreads won't let you have 2 pending giveaways. Tor is doing an August giveaway for the book, so it'll have to be September for my international giveaway. :( Sorry to disappoint, but I will still do it in Sept!
