I hope we're near the end of our cold weather for the year. My achy knees and my achy sinuses would be very grateful.


Next weekend (Feb 18-20) I'll be at ConDFW in Dallas, doing a couple of panels plus hopefully a reading and a signing. I will bring several copies of The Cloud Roads (in case no dealers have it yet), and hopefully I can find a friendly dealer to sell them in the dealers room, so they'll be available there.

So that will be my first con in a long long time with a new book out. !!!!!! (Not that I'm excited about that or anything.)

This just in: Books by men get reviewed much more often than books by women. Why? Well, one research project suggests that it's because women read books by both men and women, while men mostly read books by men. And an admittedly less-than-scientific analysis says it could be because publishers put out more books by men than women.


The con_or_bust fundraising auction is going to start on February 21. Welcome to [info]con_or_bust, which helps fans of color to attend SFF conventions, principally WisCon. And you can still offer items or services for auction.
