I believe myself to be a VERY GOOD LIAR. It is my one con artist skill. 


Go forth and use your Sherlockian skills to prove me wrong.

You played Laura Roslin in Battlestar Galactica What have been some of your most interesting encounters with fans from that show?



'I was in the airport in Chicago and I was with my son who I think was ten years old and we were in a hurry and we were trying to make our connection and you know, that airport is crazy. So we're moving very quickly and I kind of notice up ahead these group of men and I notice them notice me and I'm like “Oh no. Here we go. What do I do? I don't have anyone with me, my husband's not here, so how do I say hello or not”…. 




Is it wrong that I got choked up when I read this? BSG FOREVAH.

Hey! I'm considering going the tsarpunk route for Teslacon! Do you have any stores, etsy shops or must haves that I should look into when crafting my costume?

Oooh! If you do, post a pic and I’ll send you some special swag that only goes out to cosplayers and costumers.


I don’t have any stores in mind, but have you checked out my Tsarpunk and Kefta inspiration boards on Pinterest?


Also, I wore this Tsarpunk ensemble to the Steampunk Tea at RT:

(I really wish I’d stood in front of something more scenic.)


The hat is faux fur from Topshop. Coat is by YAG Couture and came from Shrine in Los Angeles The corset was custom made for me by this talented lady. And, of course, you can always get great Shadow and Bone inspired jewelry from Hebel Design.


Anyone else have Tsarpunk shopping resources? At some point, I’d like to add a section with resource links on my web site.

Molly made this for a post at YALSA’s The Hub — it’s worth checking out, because there are lots of additional titles in the comments! 


These are available — or soon will be — at Lawrence Public Library! 



I spy a backlist favorite (ANNIE ON MY MIND) and a Fall 2013 book we’re excited to share with the world (FREAKBOY)!
