It’s taken longer than it should–I apologize–but the Revenant information page and the excerpt are finally up! Hurray!

Guess what I have for you on Cinco de Mayo? A present! Yup, Ken George made a book trailer for the Greywalker series which will be running at Romantic Times, but you can see it here first!

I hope you like it and pass it around. Thanks!

Well… the final proof of Revenant is done. I need to scan the pages with errors and compile them into a pdf to send to my editor tonight, but it’s done. Of course I find things about the way the story is told or the writing that I don’t like, but I’m, over all, very pleased with this book. I think–I hope–it’s good enough to close the series for a while without leaving fans howling for my blood.

I’m pleased.

And now… on to the Next Project!

This is what I’m doing today.

OK, so… I’ve signed up for World Fantasy Con in Arlington VA this November. This is going to be a looooong stretch away from the dogs, since I’ll be hopping straight from DC to Long Beach for Bouchercon the following weekend. Also, I’ve signed up for Rainforest Writers Retreat next February on the assumption that my usual terrifying first quarter schedule won’t be happening next year due to a lack of deadlines. We’ll see…. If you want to keep up with my schedule, please check the Tour page here or the calendar tab on the blog.

I found a nice write up on the Greywalker series today at Book Series in Order. And while the books aren’t actually YA, the write up is very good. Thank you, anonymous writer!

Ack! The copyedit has landed and it’s due back in 2 weeks! Ack! All other projects–including the taxes–will be put on hold until this beast is off my desk (this CE seems to have trodden lightly on my prose, happily for me.) And it’s a good thing I finally got one particular project done, but 3 more are still hanging fire. I may be scarce for a while.

Most years I finish the required novel the first week of the new year, turn it in, and become an exhausted, brain-dead slug. This year, that didn’t happen. I finished the novel and was happy with it. I worked on the SF Thriller until the revision notes came in and then I revised the novel, walking away from what is now the longest book of the series feeling chipper and only the usual degree of day-end tired. I was going to go back to the SF Thriller, but got sidetracked by a couple of personal projects…

I no longer have an excuse for being pudgy and slow moving.
