When will you RISE?

Ahem:

You might want to click this link and find out my exciting news for next summer.

This beautiful book will include all the Newsflesh short fiction to date, from "Everglades" through to "Please Do Not Taunt the Octopus," as well as two brand-new novellas that no one has ever seen before. I'm super-excited, and I think you will be too, once you see what's in store.

I'm also super-excited because this is my first short fiction collection. Another item checked off the bucket list!

Happy blonde is happy.

When will you rise?

SO EXCITED!

In semi-related news, I just lent my copy of Feed to a friend who does makeup for cheap indy zombie movies. Can wait to hear about her reaction.

Despite having just flailed at you on Twitter, more squee here seems appropriate. *^^* This is the best news. And I'm unreasonably excited that the book will have "Everglades" and be really, truly comprehensive.

I'm also super-excited because this is my first short fiction collection. Another item checked off the bucket list!

May it be the first of many!

Excellent! I am bringing Feed for a work friend. I sold it to her by the excellent virology. She's intrigued. We also talked about the greatness of short fiction.

Oh, on a related note, I was reading the Cracked newsletter yesterday and they all had links like these:
