catherineldfIt's been quite the month. Lot of stress, lining up new events (teaching at Clarion West Online! Author Guest of Honor at MarsCon! Etc.), lots of projects in various stages of completion! Here's the big stuff:
- I started the next menopausal werewolf novel! If you've heard me talk about this, you may recall that I always planned on 3 books, for a generous interpretation of "planning." Well, Blue Moon has some words on the page now. Onward!
- I have a Capricon 42 schedule with a virtual panel on queer science fiction and a reading for next Saturday!
- I have an r/Fantasy StabbyCon schedule for 2/8 too! I'll be talking about Gothic Fantasy and Queen of Swords Press author Rem Wigmore will be on the panel about gender in speculative fiction.
- Queen of Swords Press is officially 5 years old. I have piloted this little ship for 5 whole years now! Huge shoutout of thanks to my authors, my staff, our interns, our cover artists, our webmasters, our editors, our reader, reviewers, Patreon supporters and everyone else who helps us spread the word! Come check out the Birthday Sale, which ends tomorrow!
- Uncle Hugo's Bookstore is coming back to Minneapolis! Losing Hugo and Edgar's was a huge, crushing blow to the owner, the staff and the community as a whole, geeky and otherwise, and I think we've all had a rough time with it. Planned reopening spot is the current Glass Endeavors building, next to the field where the Post Office, MIGIZI and Gandhi Mahal used to be on 31st just off Lake Street, across from Moon Palace Books, Arbeiter Brewing and the Hook & Ladder (and the burned out shell of the 3rd Precinct). Big Longfellow shoutout for a neighborhood that suffered so many loses and is still trying to come back. The Glass Endeavors owners, who managed to keep going despite the lockdown and losing all their immediate small business neighbors to fire during the riots and everything else have decided to retire so selling the building is a happy thing for everyone. :-D
- I'm going to have a story in the next set of Sherlock Holmes and the Occult Detectives edited by John Linwood Grant! More news coming soon!
