More things that happened in my absence

It's become a bit of a running joke between me and my agent, that good news always lands when I'm out of town and ill-prepared to properly respond. This was definitely the case while I was off on tour, so now I can take a moment and fill you in on the awesomeness.

To wit, Dreadnought has won the Endeavour Award! I am dumbfounded by this outcome, to be perfectly honest; but of course, I am delighted! And I can't thank the folks from OryCon enough. It's a privilege to be in such illustrious company!

In other news, I am totally on CNN right now. Sort of. Well, I mean, I was interviewed for CNN. For a Geek Out! blog piece, that is. (I'm quietly giggly about how the writer closed the piece with one of my favorite pieces of advice.) #steampunk #chicksdigalternatehistory

And for those of you who, for some reason, want to see me talking awkwardly to a nice man with a microphone ... all your prayers are answered in that-there interview for Author Magazine, which yes, went live while I was gone. (Also, yes - I am wearing a vintage hair thingy. People keep asking about it.) Mostly I'm just relieved to note that my eyebrows look even. #publishing #weirdindustrytales #hairdoodads
