For folks in the Twin Cities area, there will be a reception honoring my wife, MN Book Artist of the Year Jana Pullman, at the Open Book tonight from 5:30-7:30 PM. She's got a lovely exhibit in the second floor gallery (the one in the downstairs gallery is quite nice too, even if she doesn't have a book in it :-). It's free and it's always a nice party. Plus Jana books are spectacular.
Con-or-bust, the annual fans of color assistance project is open for bid tomorrow (2./9/13). I'm offering signed copies of Silver Moon, Hellebore and Rue and A Day at the Inn, A Night at the Palace and Other Stories as a 3 book package. Bid early and often! Many lovely things and a great cause.
Worlds Without End is doing a Women in Genre read and review challenge - read 12 books by female authors you've never read before and review them. Reviews are entered in a monthly poll and winner get prizes.
And again for Twin Cities folks, Theater Unbound, our terrific local theater that features plays written and directed by women, is doing a short plays festival later on this month. Really looking forward to this one.
In a Catherine-specific update, lost my wedding ring, probably permanently, this week. Hoping the restaurant staff turns it up but that hope is dimming. :-((( Otherwise, it's been planning for our International Women's Day radio show and some revisions to a short story I want to send out next week. Plus day job and errands, of course,
I did finish reading Whipping Girl by Julia Serano and highly recommend it. (My reviews go out on Goodreads under my own name).
