Still plugging away on the YA fantasy. I feel my brain trying to impose plot, but I'm trying to continue just driving where my headlights can see.

[livejournal.com profile] holyoutlaw posted a video of a really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, happy dog, to which I commented "I have never before heard Doppler shift on a squeeky toy." For this feat of scientific detection I have been named an Improbable Research Investigator.

I received a fat envelope from F&SF, which I tore open with great excitement. But it wasn't a contract... just a rejection with some suggestions on tightening the opening. Alas. (And no, it wasn't a subtle rewrite request.)

In his year-end round-up of Realms of Fantasy, [livejournal.com profile] ecbatan calls my "Joy is the Serious Business of Heaven" one of the best short stories in the magazine this year.

Artisan booksmith Todd Sanders is hand-making a few bound copies of my zeppelin story "Love in the Balance." You can see a picture of the work in progres here.

On Sunday November 29, I will be participating in Sci-Fi Authorfest III at Powell's Books in Beaverton. This multi-author booksigning event starts at 4:00 PM and includes [livejournal.com profile] lilithsaintcrow, [livejournal.com profile] camillealexa, [livejournal.com profile] barbhendee and [livejournal.com profile] jchendee, [livejournal.com profile] devonmonk, [livejournal.com profile] brendacooper, [livejournal.com profile] kriswrites and [livejournal.com profile] deanwesleysmith, [livejournal.com profile] anghara, [livejournal.com profile] lmarley, and others, plus the Cloud City Garrison of the 501st Imperial Legion.

The OryCon 31 program schedule has been posted. Gosh, that's only two weeks away!
