Reminder: Getting my MAD SCIENCE on today at Borderlands Books!

Greetings, people of Earth.

I will be appearing today at Borderlands Books in San Francisco at three p.m., where I, along with John Joseph Adams, will be explaining the world domination plans as described in The Mad Scientist's Guide to World Domination. (We do not believe in confusing titles here in the lab. Confusing titles mean melted minions, and that's a waste of resources.)

I understand that you may have other things to do, but I implore you to attend the event, or to contact the bookstore to order signed books, as we will look kindly upon those who support the anthology, and given the size of my vegetable hybrid army, "looking kindly" may save your city from being used as an incubation hive.

From my heart and from my hands, why don't people understand that I just need to subjugate them all to my will?

Still waiting for her shiny new Australia,
Seanan.

As someone who judges anthologies and collections each year (and hence, has to read dozens and dozens and dozens) I can safely say it's the best I've ever read. The quality of it is astounding, it was a massive joy to read, and I kept running around to anyone who'd listen to share parts with them <3

Part of Australia is about to get a cyclone. Other parts are incredibly hot, or have been flooded. Don't think it counts for shiny, are you sure you still want it?

Seriously. I have to discount my story when I'm talking about personal impressions of quality, because hello bias, and that still leaves me with an anthology that's so dominantly awesome that I almost wish I wasn't in it, just to make it easier to recommend without sounding self-serving.

I will always want Australia.
