So Where’s Timekeeper, Heather? Part II

Right, so, I said back in the end of July that I might still manage to release Timekeeper by September 20th, making it still a summer 2012 release and me therefore not a liar. And if that did not prove to be possible, I would be back on September 20th with a firm release date.
Today [...]

Killing The Mentor Without Killing The Mentor

Garment of Shadows, Laurie King’s twelfth Mary Russell mystery, comes out early next month. And I’ve seen at least one comment from a fan “hoping Sherlock Holmes will play a larger role in this one, since he was offstage so much in the last one.”

Timekeeper Update (a.k.a, So Where’s The Book, Heather?)

I’ve been asked a few times now “what advice I would give to beginning writers,” which always sort of stops me in my tracks, because I feel like I’m still collecting that advice myself. Recently, however, my personal experiences have in fact led to a few tidbits worth sharing. One of them I shared here. [...]

Timepiece Giveaway!

As of this morning, 1,747 people have downloaded Timepiece. (Which is thrilling. ) My husband points out I should do something to commemorate the 1,815th and 1,885th sale, for self-evident reasons. I agree.
There isn’t a straightforward way for me to correlate sales with people, or I’d give a prize to the 1,815th and 1,885th purchaser.
Here’s [...]

Waltham’s Steampunk Festival

The only bad thing about having both a black leather corset and a place to wear it? Spending a day in the f*cking corset. My undergraduate thesis touched on the ways in which Victorian society produced helplessness in its women, but there’s really nothing like proving the point for yourself. Indeed, yea and verily, I [...]
