Even old New York was once New Amsterdam

Two bits of good news to close out the week - one is good for me, one is good for other people. As follows:
(1). Boneshaker is going to Turkey! I believe this makes the tenth language translation for the little book that just won't quit. Huzzah, hooray, and it's Istanbul not Constantinople!

(2). It's finally public, so I get to publicly congratulate George R. R. Martin and Melinda Snodgrass - for lo, a WILD CARDS movie is in the works! I am so psyched for them! But despite the fact that the press release namechecks me - and a few of the other newer WC writers - I am not working on this project, I'm merely an affiliate of the franchise. Still, it's great company to be in. Congrats to Melinda for nabbing the deal and the script, and props to George for getting the whole weird superhero/alt-history world underway in the first place.
And with that ... have a good weekend, everyone!
