Last Week Before LAST FIRST SNOW, so here’s a trailer
Friends and neighbors, I have a book out next Tuesday. Less than a week from today! If you can’t wait, as is my custom, I offer you: the LAST FIRST SNOW book trailer, powered by the cinema of your imagination, in its full surround-sound screenplay format glory.
Last week, a not-so-mysterious package from Tor landed on my doorstep. I believe it contains copies of Last First Snow. I have not opened it yet, for the package itself filled me with deep supernatural dread.
That might be because I’ve been catching up on Nightvale.
But that’s another blog post. I’m out and about at the moment, but I will update with pictures from that box, and whatever I find therein, later this afternoon.
Other news: Fran Wilde, whose book Updraft should really be on your radars, interviewed me about Last First Snow at SF Signal! Check it out!
I will be at Readercon this weekend! If you are there, come say hello!
And on Tuesday July 14, I’ll be launching LAST FIRST SNOW at the Harvard Square Bookstore, as part of an event which will also feature Elizabeth Bear, Brian Staveley, and James Cambias! You want to come buy books for yourself and all your friends! Yessssss, you dooooooo. Staaaaaare into my eyeeeeees.
After that: ROAD TRIP WORLD TOUR FOR VALUES OF WORLD EQUAL TO NEW ENGLAND. I posted about this earlier, but I’ll update my Events page with the proper schedule later this afternoon.
After that, though, I’ll back in New York on the 28th of July to deliver a talk on Hamlet as part of the Word for Word in Bryant Park program! Hamlet is, well, Hamlet, so come watch me embarrass myself trying to say true things about it.
And, after that, I’ll be swinging west to Gen Con for the Gen Con Writer’s Symposium! Here’s my Gen Con schedule. I’m given to understand that events at the Writer’s Symposium run on a ticketing system, so if any of these seems especially awesome to you, and you’re bound to Gen Con, register ASAP!
