    <content type="html">This Saturday, May 8th 2010, I will be appearing at San Francisco's own &lt;a href="http://www.borderlands-books.com/"&gt;Borderlands Books&lt;/a&gt; in my guise as &lt;a href="http://www.miragrant.com"&gt;Mira Grant&lt;/a&gt; to celebrate the release of Mira's first novel, &lt;i&gt;Feed&lt;/i&gt; [&lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/Feed-Newsflesh-Book-Mira-Grant/dp/0316081051/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;amp;s=books&amp;amp;qid=1272378929&amp;amp;sr=1-1&amp;amp;tag=seanacom-20&amp;amp;linkCode=as2&amp;amp;camp=1789&amp;amp;creative=9325&amp;amp;creativeASIN=0756405718"&gt;Amazon&lt;/a&gt;]|[&lt;a href="http://mysteriousgalaxy.booksense.com/NASApp/store/Product?s=showproduct&amp;amp;affiliateId=SMG&amp;amp;isbn=978-0316081054"&gt;Mysterious Galaxy&lt;/a&gt;].  &lt;i&gt;Feed&lt;/i&gt; is a science fiction dystopian novel of political zombie terror, best described as "&lt;i&gt;Night of the Living Dead&lt;/i&gt; meets &lt;i&gt;The West Wing&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Transmetropolitan&lt;/i&gt;."  If that sounds a little weird, well...it is.  But if it sounds a little awesome, you should totally swing by.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is going to be a more traditional event than most of my parties, because Mira's a traditional kind of girl...especially if by "traditional" you mean "fond of machetes, the undead, and things that go bump in the night."  We'll be in the bookstore starting at five, and we'll be staying there until nine, providing plenty of time for undead awesomeness.  There will be readings, discussion, time for wandering around the bookstore, and, yes, &lt;a href="http://www.cupsandcakesbakery.com/CCB/Home.html"&gt;the world's best cupcakes&lt;/a&gt;.  Some of my best friends from out of town will be attending, so this is your chance to finally check off "Rae" on your Seanan bingo card.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I really hope you can make it, and if you can't, remember that you can contact Borderlands to request a signed/personalized book be set aside for you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whee!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;ETA:&lt;/b&gt; Festivities will begin at 5:00 PM, and continue until 9:00.</content>
