Sunday
Someone told me this on Facebook and I wanted to share it: My younger grandson (6) was looking at The Cloud Roads cover & assumed Moon was a monster. We had a good talk about how you can have wings, scales, & a tail & still be a perfectly good guy.
There must have been more things going on in town this weekend than just the Chili cookoff, because some places were weirdly deserted and others weirdly crowded. We went to the Texas Roadhouse to eat and even before 5:00 it already looked like it had been attacked by pirates. Then we rented the Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy movie with Gary Oldman, and it was excellent. It's very quiet and very complicated, but gripping, and you have to watch it carefully to follow it, if you haven't read the book or seen the much older miniseries.

I have a story in a kickstarter which is in its last hours countdown: Tales of the Emerald Serpent Shared World Anthology. We made the amount for the first anthology, but it doesn't look like we'll make enough for a second one.
Night Shade Books is still having a 50% off sale of all their books until April 19. There is a four book minimum. Their catalog has tons of great books, like The Cloud Roads and The Serpent Sea by me, the Foglios' Agatha H and the Airship City and Agatha H and the Clockwork Princess, God's War and Infidel by Kameron Hurley, and books by Jay Lake, Joe Lansdale, Glen Cook, Stina Leicht, J.M. McDermott, Elizabeth Bear, Charles Saunders, Catherynne M. Valente, and a bunch of others.
Here's another book kickstarter: THE WARLOCK'S CURSE: #3 in the Veneficas Americana series by M.K. Hobson.
