I...I...holy cats, people, IT'S A BOOK.

Rosemary and Rue was just reviewed by Publishers Weekly.

To quote (just a little, although wow do I wanna quote a lot more), "Well researched, sharply told, highly atmospheric and as brutal as any pulp detective tale, this promising start to a new urban fantasy series is sure to appeal to fans of Jim Butcher or Kim Harrison."

There is absolutely no way this football is being yanked away from me.

Holy cats.

She's got friends on the East Coast, and will surely have fans... so I'm sure she'd love to get to one at some point! I'm hoping for DragonCon, myself. ;)

(Just seeding that in your brain, Seanan, don't mind me. DragonCon. Or the Decatur Book Festival.)

Do you know nlbarber? She regularly does the Decatur Book Festival in preference to DragonCon each year.

She also does GaFilk [.org], which you could also be encouraging Seanan to come to.

As long as we're being so encouraging, Seanan, you're definitely welcome to come to GaFilk at any time. autographedcat would definitely not complain.

:)

I know, I know, but it's really, really badly timed for me, since it slams up against my birthday, several local conventions, and the general "vacation window" that includes the UK con.

Yeah, you've got some big incentives to go Over There, especially next year.

Have a big time!

Will you be allowed to let us know if the Science Fiction Book Club approaches you about an omnibus next year?

That really isn't how it works. I don't get approached about anything; my agent and/or my publisher get approached. If a deal is public, I can tell everyone. Until the deal is public, I can't tell anyone.

Fair enough. It's pretty exciting seeing your books coming out at all, but it'd be great to be able to get them in hardback.
