Check out this week’s Mind Meld at SF Signal. I was a panelist for: “What are the ‘Forgotten Books’ of science fiction/fantasy/horror?”
Rah! “Within Your Soul I Sightless See” is now out in issue #5 of H.P. Lovecraft’s Magazine of Horror. And I’m sharing a ToC with Tanith Lee!
This publication has been a looooong time coming. As in years. And it looks to be the last issue of HPL’s, which is a shame but understandable, considering Wildside also publishes Weird Tales.
This issue is available for free download. The contents:

First day at work after sine die is a happy place, all quietude and restful serenity. Yet another facet of what I love ’bout my day job.
Pretty much been crashed out on the couch this weekend in deep recovery mode. Stirred myself up to try to rev up the work engine this evening—with less productivity than hoped, but what else is new?
Saw that Returning My Sister’s Face got a fabulous review from Holly Phillips at Fantasy Magazine:
In this elegant collection of stories Eugie Foster bridges the gap between the traditional fairytale and historical fantasy. Throughout the collection she alternates between re-tellings of Chinese and Japanese legends and original stories with elements drawn from the same deep wells. There is a formality to the writing that suits the traditional strain, giving a timeless authority to all the stories without making them unapproachable.
*squee!*
Also received an invitation to submit a story to another DAW anthology. Must start stoking up the muse. Rah!
Home now. Session over. My 2nd HUGE hamster (HoUS?) released to the wild. Hurray. K, I sleep now. *thunk*
8PM sine die: time to break out the pink bunny slippers at work.
Day 40 of the ’09 GA legis. session, woot! Everyone will be here ’till midnight, but it’s sine die so we can sleep all next week. Rah!
