Yesterday was the official beginning of my book tour for Of Noble Family with Marie Brennan, so it seems appropriate to share some lovely photos from my book release party at the end of April, hosted by Tor Books and held at the Cards Against Humanity Theater.
Yes, that’s the dress I made for Of Noble Family‘s cover, being worn by my friend Karlyn Meyer, of the Chicago Nerd Social Club’s Board of Organizers.
Several guests joined me in wearing Regency gowns during the party. It was wonderful to see so many people having a great time.
I couldn’t have asked for a better send-off for my trip as Guest of Honor on the Steampunk Cruise. Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate with me, and I hope to see more of you in the coming weeks!

Thanks for sharing these, Mary. I wish I could have gone, I looked hard at the economics of it. but the spice would not flow.
More the shame, me. Looks like a good time was had by all.
You MADE that dress? Way to be awesome.
