woohoo!

I’ve been given the all-clear to post the MOUNTAIN ECHOES cover! Holy crap, guys! Penultimate Walker Papers book! (And damn, I wish I’d thought of saying RAVEN CALLS was the antepenultimate book when it came out, ’cause I love that word. :))

OLD RACES: YEAR OF MIRACLES

My head is going to explode of squee. :) Revisit the world of the Negotiator Trilogy and learn how it all began… Four hundred years ago, the master vampire Eliseo Daisani and the dragonlord Janx fell in love with a human woman during the Year of Miracles–the year London burned.

stupendous

I have had a stupendously productive day. I finished the second ElectriCity chapter. I got the cover for BABA YAGA’S DAUGHTER and posted it. I delivered via email the stories I was supposed to and delivered two packages to the post office to be sent far far away. I finished the laundry.
