Things That Make Me Happy

My good friend and fellow Twelve Planeteer (that's what we're called, right?) Narrelle Harris has the delight this week of the release date of her book Showtime, a collection of domestic horror stories. Seanan Maguire wrote a fantastic introduction to the collection, and of course my other very good friend Alisa gets to celebrate the first book off the Twelfth Planet Press press for 2012.

Celebrations all around!

Also, I was delighted to see that Nicola Griffith has received the inaugural Galactic Suburbia doll, and found a place for it in her home. It's lovely for me to be able to combine two things that are hugely important to me, Galactic Suburbia and the Deepings Dolls, and to see my Mum's artwork appreciated so much.

All this, and there has been some lovely feedback about our Tiptree winner and shortlist, so that's a cause for celebration, too.

Such a lovely way to start a long weekend!
