    <content type="html">Treat: &lt;a href="http://papercut-reviews.blogspot.com/2010/10/author-interview-with-seanan-mcguire.html"&gt;a new interview is up at Papercut Reviews&lt;/a&gt;, and there's a chance to win a signed copy of either &lt;i&gt;Rosemary and Rue&lt;/i&gt; or &lt;i&gt;An Artificial Night&lt;/i&gt;.  So whether you're a new reader or a long-time friend of the series, you can maybe win the book that's right for you!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Treat: &lt;a href="http://boingboing.net/2010/09/05/hugo-awards-2010-som.html"&gt;Cory Doctorow has posted his thoughts on this year's Hugo Awards&lt;/a&gt;, and has some really sweet things to say about my acceptance speech.  It's nice that other people remember it.  I barely do.  I was sort of out to lunch that day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Treat: Katie Babs &lt;a href="http://kbgbabbles.blogspot.com/2010/10/kbs-report-from-2010-nyc-comic-con-day.html"&gt;has posted about the New York Comic Con&lt;/a&gt;, and has a picture of a rare public Mira Grant sighting.  The lovely Miss Mira is neither covered in gore nor decapitating anyone, which makes this picture &lt;i&gt;doubly&lt;/i&gt; rare.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And today's big treat, which comes better late than never, I give you &lt;a href="http://www.geekspeakmagazine.com/archive/issue7/index.htm"&gt;the September 2010 issue of &lt;i&gt;Geek Speak&lt;/i&gt; magazine&lt;/a&gt;.  Why?  Because, well, it includes &lt;a href="http://www.geekspeakmagazine.com/archive/issue7/features/living_the_fairy_tale_1.htm"&gt;a fantastic interview with me (conducted in Australia, no less)&lt;/a&gt;, which asks me a lot of fun things I don't get asked very often, &lt;a href="http://www.geekspeakmagazine.com/archive/issue7/reviews/books/onshelves/an_artificial_night.htm"&gt;a cracking good review of &lt;i&gt;An Artificial Night&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, and a &lt;a href="http://www.geekspeakmagazine.com/archive/issue7/features/conventional_wisdom_1.htm"&gt;sweet, passionately lovely review of AussieCon IV, including, yes, my Campbell win&lt;/a&gt;.  Seriously, I was like, 30% of this issue, it's &lt;i&gt;awesome&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those are your treats for this lovely Halloween morning.  Stay safe tonight, and remember, always check your candy.</content>
