First up is Home Improvement: Undead Edition, edited by Charlaine Harris and Toni Kelner. This is my first-ever hardcover publication, and I am so excited I'm flailing. What's more, this is the first time a Toby short story has actually been printed. Yes; my story in this is a Toby piece.
"Through This Houses" chronologically bridges Late Eclipses and One Salt Sea. It isn't required reading; you can skip it, read the books, and be totally happy. But if you do, you'll miss Toby shoving May off a cliff, Quentin being awesome, killer pixies, and the house telling everyone to get out. Home Improvement: Undead Edition will be published August 2nd, and can help take the edge off your need for more Toby Daye.
Second is Human For A Day, edited by Jennifer Brozek and Martin Greenberg. This is Jennifer's first DAW anthology, and I couldn't be prouder to be a part of it. What's more...
Who read Tales From the Ur-Bar? Good. And who remembers Mina Norton, my cranky little gaslamp alchemist bartender with the seasonal monarch issues? Better! Well, Human For A Day contains my second Mina Norton story, "Cinderella City," in which she and the King of Summer ("James" to his friends) team up with the incarnate city of San Francisco to stop all of California from tumbling into the sea. Human For A Day will be published December 6th, and needs to grace your shelves.
And that's my publication news for today. I will now resume preparing frantically to leave for San Diego. Shower time!

I have a must-read-now stack that is over 20 books tall.
I have a to-read list that is over 100 books long.
And yet, I just hit "purchase" on my Amazon cart...
