They Are Odd And Winsome Beasts, Those Writers

There's an interview with me over at the USAToday Happily Ever After blog. In which I talk about stealing time, how I know when a series is done, and what I say to people who look down on genre.

Also, this past weekend was the first annual Author Faire at Cover to Cover Books. It was a roaring success, even if I do say so myself. Picturespam after the jump!

[image error] My tablemates were Lisa Nowak and Cheri Lasota, who were kind of hesitant about sharing table space with a lunatic, but I won them over. WITH LOVE, DAMMIT. (Not really. They found me amusing and not very frightening. Which I'm glad for.)

[image error] Chris Luna, reading a poem he wrote while half asleep.

[image error] Cheri Lasota, reading from her recently-released ebook. That's a Kindle she's holding.

[image error] Bill Cameron, reading from his "Princess of Felony Flats", a short story I now have to find and possess so I can see how it ends.

[image error] Mike Nettleton, one half of the Deadly Duo, recently unshaven. And reading!

[image error] Ron Gompertz, reading from his Hitchhiker's Guide to Ancient Rome. (He brought a helmet. Which I wore, but I can't find the picture now. IT'S A MERCY, OKAY?)

[image error] Toni Partington, reading about crows.

[image error] Ann Littlewood, holding off a tiger with a bucket and a shovel. (I am not kidding.)

[image error] My tablemate Lisa Nowak reading. (The antlers are optional.)

[image error] Carolyn Rose, the other half of the a wily, elusive Publisher! In the wild! This is PROOF! They do exist as corporeal beings, feasting on the blood, pain, and tears of–oh, I'm just kidding. Lucas is a really nice guy.

Me, I read from the beginning of Angel Town. Lots of snot and gore and heaving and maggots. I think that's why nobody wanted to talk to me afterward. See, you really cannot take me anywhere.

Special thanks to Cover to Cover for hosting the event! And for sandwiches. Also, thanks to Vito, who loomed, and the Martian Mooncrab, who brought me a lawn-gnome Christmas ornament, and to Reader Rachel W., who totally made my day.

And now I've a lunch to inhale and some more zombie cowboy to write. Over and out!
