As promised, I bring you a small shopping list for the weird reader on your list. (click on the images for purchasing info)Yes, it may seem a little self-serving (being a Strange Publications book and all), but Cate's collection is wonderful. Check out www.strangemeninpinstripesuits.com and read the reviews.

I'm a big fan of just about everything Kim Paffenroth has written. If you haven't taken a peek at Valley of the Dead yet, you should grab a copy (or buy two and send one to a loved one). Smart horror, folks.

...in the making of the mess that is my desk.
One was happily working on her YA book in early March (according to my diary, it was last seen in action on the 1st - cripes) when the Shock Totem competition came along, and that was swiftly followed by the compiling of certain Strange Men, which in turn was followed by decorating... Short detour here...
...I bought a wonderful colour called 'Soft Stone' for my walls, a nice creamish-brown and I was going to buy all lovely green accessories, only the lovely creamish-brown turns out to be lilac or in the words of one nephew, purple!!!...
...all of which have left my desk buried beneath short story contracts, notes, edits, several drafts of a short story, critiques, blah, blah, blah. So no WIP for me (unless you count cleaning my desk as a WIP - and yep, it could take as long as the novel). I may, but then again may not, get back into Grim Glass Vein tomorrow, or (expecting a rejection here) do a rework on something else (may do it anyway just so I'm good to go), or maybe I'll actually finish the sequel/prequel/set in same universe short story that is a follow up to my Shock Totem entry.
I'm knackered now, must lie down for several weeks.
Oh, but first, if you head over to Strange Publications, you can pre-order The Final Study of Cooper M. Reid by Barry Napier for $8.
Haha best answer ever: because I don't get a choice. I love it. (And it's true.)
Five book series. Bloody awesome. Although, I am waiting for the announcement that it will be even longer consider the fact that 'Book 4 might be pretty lengthy' ;)
Yep. I like the idea of an interrelated series of novellas. Writing one of those right now! ;)
