…from me and other folk at SF Signal.  They are compiling a Best of 2009, according to–well, whomever they ask.  I’m in the fourth segment of this, which includes Elizabeth Bear, Brenda Cooper, and others.  You can find the fourth segment here, along with links to the first three segments.

The Mad Hatter’s Bookshelf and Book Review has just posted an interview with me covering various topics: writing, editing, Diving Into The Wreck, hats, and much more!

Go play on the website. It’s a fun one. You can find it here.

After reading the Freelancer’s Guide on Success, writer Brad R. Torgersen decided to figure out what success means to him. Now. Today. And he’s set up some benchmarks. It’s a cool post, and a neat way to look at what you’re doing.  You can find it here.

As you’ll see over the next few weeks, I’ve gone website happy.  I figure it’s easier to have a static website for some of my universes, which will easily answer reader questions.  So the first to go live (as they say) is Diving into the Wreck. I haven’t done everything I want to do yet; I’d like to highlight artist Dave Seeley’s work, for example, and help people find the various novellas.  But I have enough to let y’all know it’s there–and, more importantly, that there’s an excerpt from the novel on the site, for those of you on the fence about buying it. You can find the excerpt here.

I also have a bookstore page for bookstores carrying the book.  So if you are a bookstore owner or you know of a bookstore that carries the book, send me your contact information, and I’ll put it on the site. I’m doing it by region, so folks can find nearby bookstores carrying the novel (and maybe discover some bookstores as well!). Here’s the link to the bookstore page.

I’m not the only one who saw the blog posts by the inventor of the cat camera.  These folks in Seattle have had their cat wear a camera for a year now.  So I write a story, and their cat takes great pix.  I hope that the cat never finds a dead body in a swamp.  Check it out here:  http://www.photographercat.com/
