Tuesday Quick Notes
Well, over the weekend, I flew out to New York, and this happened:
Yup. I am now president of the Mystery Writers of America's Northern California Chapter. Nothing beats an uncontested election!
Speaking of, it is Edgar Allan Poe's birthday, and so the Edgar Award nominations are out. Always highly interesting. I'll have more to say in April, when the winners are announced.
And a nice review of The Last Weekend came in over the weekend, from Horrortalk.com. It reads, in part:
Despite what you’ll hear from reviewers and excited readers in the next few weeks, Nick Mamatas has not reinvented the zombie novel with The Last Weekend; he has created a new subgenre that brings together the best elements of horror, noir, and literary fiction while simultaneously poking fun at those genres.
NEW subgenre. That's me. Get to clickin'.
