exhaustedThis is the current shape of my 2013, with travel dates and everything. Beautiful travel dates. Hope to see you sometime in the months to come. 2014 is now half the list, July 2014 is closer to "now" than January 2013. And other horrifying thoughts. (Most horrifying of all, the first 2015 date has appeared. Gleep.)

Again, to clarify some recent confusion: some things, especially novel-length things, may appear more than once, on both the "publication date" and "being written" lists. This is because the "being written" list is an aggregate, which also includes "no fixed deadline" (IE, being written on spec or for the website) and "unsold" (IE, being written because I can). So new books will appear there for a long time before they vanish, since books take a long time to write, but may also have pub dates listed higher up.
Look at that list. It's so shiny!

Yay, Parasite's out so soon! I can't wait to read it - one of the areas I enjoyed most about the Newsflesh Trilogy was the virology.
I was wondering: are you considering coming to Australia/New Zealand in the near-ish future? Though your accent would probably confuse my ears, as I read everyone in your books as speaking with an Australian accent (except for Mahir, of course!) I'd love to hear you speak/get books signed without paying exorbitant rates for postage/generally have you be within 2000km of my house. Of course, I know it's very expensive to get here, which does make things difficult, but seeing as you have a novella set here…
ETA: Sorry, but I've just noticed that dragonsally asked about Australia upstream, so apologies for the repeat.
