I’m in Australia!

I’m going to Supanova Expo in Sydney June 19-21 and in Perth June 26-28! So excited to meet all you Aussies & Kiwis!

I’ll be spending the majority of my time at the Booktopia area, which I’m given to understand is easily located on the venue map thingie. I will have some panels too, of course—see the event programme and then see me there! (Can I just say I love the bonus letters in UK/Aus English? Programme is so much fancier than program and favourite is my favorite.)

Apologies that I won’t be visiting other cities. I’ll be all business those two weekends of Supanova, but in between I’ll be hanging out with my family, fraternizing with koalas and quokkas, running from giant spiders, that sort of thing. My mom’s wanted to go to Australia since she was wee and now she’s finally going. And it’s also downtime for me; I just finished writing Staked this morning—I’ve been writing one thing or another nonstop since New Year’s—and I need a break. Not even taking my laptop with me. Bringing lots of books to read, though!

I’m reading two ARCs right now: Lightless by CA Higgins and Trailer Park Fae by Lilith Saintcrow. I also have Of Blood and Honey by Stina Leicht and Corsair by James L. Cambias, and I’m sure I’ll pick up additional goodies while at Supanova!

(By the way: Staked will be out Jan. 26. If you haven’t read Three Slices yet, that contains an important novella set in between Shattered and Staked—snag it for your Atticus & Oberon fix!)
