And here’s my super exciting news since my previous post:
- “The Engine Woman’s Light” (my spirits-meet-steampunk, coming-of-age novel set in an alternate 19th Century California) has won an ELEVENTH AWARD: The 2018 Irwin Award for Speculative Fiction. (Book Publicists of Southern California.)
- “The Engine Woman’s Light” and I made the “Swimsuit Edition” of the Hollywood Weekly in July. Click on this Link to Hollywood Weekly July 2018 Then turn to the last page.

I’ve just returned from SpoCon in Washington State, and am packing to head for WorldCon in San Jose, CA, which starts tomorrow. I seem to be in this whirlwind, where I don’t even have time to snap a photo. I’ll be selling books (including “The Engine Woman’s Light” ) on consignment at the Silicon Valley Writers table in the WorldCon Dealers’ Room. “The Engine Woman’s Light” will also be available at the Greater Los Angeles Writers Society (GLAWS)/Black Chateau Enterprises table, and possibly at the Borderlands Books table, as well. My scheduled signing at the GLAWS table is 4-6 pm on Saturday, August 18, after a quick trip to Redwood City to give a presentation to CWC San Francisco Peninsula Writers.
Well, my time for website update is UP. Back to the whirlwind.
With warm regards,
