Small bit first, since otherwise it will vanish next to the other news: Shroud Magazine has purchased my twisted fairy-tale retelling "Tower in Moonlight." (This is part of the ongoing set that includes "The Wood, the Bridge, the House", "Shadows' Bride,", and "Kiss of Life.")

***

Much bigger bits, relating to In Ashes Lie:

I actually meant to post this days ago, but it clean slipped my mind -- the Science Fiction Book Club has picked it up as a main selection, as with Midnight Never Come, so those of you who got the last book in hardcover can do so with this one, too.

For the other bit, you'll have to look behind the cut . . .


It's taken me until now to get a postable image of the cover; sorry for the long wait. But there ya go -- now you know what it looks like. Roll on, June!

For a sale, a SFBC main selection, and a shiny new cover? This gets TWO Snoopy dances!

And also a mild case of SFBC envy ;-)

Hey, dude, you're the one raking in the dough from Germany -- I got my first royalty statement from over there, and haven't earned out even half my advance yet. :-)

That's apocalyptically gorgeous.

Your choice of the word "apocalyptic" warms the cockles of my heart. ^_^

Warms them like a bakery fire spun out of control?

Nice parallels to MNC. I dig the way that they're obviously related, yet still very different covers for very different (yet obviously related) books.

Yeah -- I'm always a fan of having series books look like they belong together.
