I was just on the phone with my parents and had the following conversation. Mom: So where are you off to next? Me: Well, I’m flying to New York next week. Mom: Oh? What’s happening in New York? Me: It’s the Sesame Street gig, and then I’m going to narrate Cherie Pr– Mom: You mean that wasn’t an April Fool’s […]
So, no. The Sesame Street gig was NOT an April Fool’s joke. Read More »
…they like it. Oh, thank heavens. This is the first industry review for Of Noble Family, so I’m seriously relieved. The nervous making thing about trying something different in each novel is that it’s a lot easier to misstep. Kowal’s tense conclusion to her highly praised Glamourist Histories magical Regency series (following Valour and Vanity) sees

I am breaking my vacation internet embargo for this. Folks. Do not send death threats to Larry Correia, Brad Torgersen or anyone else on the Sad Puppies slate. That is a shitty thing to do. Stop it.

Woot! I’ve been keeping of this partly under my hat because I was afraid of jinxing it, but just got word that it’s official. Many of you may remember, that I auditioned for a Sesame Street workshop last year. It was an amazing experience, but I figured my chances were slim of getting to do more.

My dears, I have just typed the most glorious word in the history of novel writing, “END” on the first draft of Ghost Talkers. This is my WWI novel. It is rough. Really rough. But it has a shape and lo! it wants polish but is not full of suck. I think you’ll like Ginger Stuyvesant
