Howdy, I have many events coming up in Kansas, Minnesota, Tucson, and Orlando! Do please come! Most are in-person but one is virtual.

Also, I just found out I’m a finalist for the Minnesota Book Award in Genre Fiction, alongside three other novels, including hometown Hugo winner and lovely person Naomi Kritzer’s Liberty’s Daughter, yay for us! I am obsessed with Minnesota so this makes me incredibly happy and honored.

February

  1. I’ll be hanging out at AWP in Kansas City, February 8-11, and will be doing an off-site reading in Lawrence, KS with my beloved pals Izzy Wasserstein and Abbey Mei Otis! We will be at the Raven Bookstore on Saturday, February 10 at 7pm.

  2. I will be at the Oakdale Library in Oakdale, Minnesota on Monday, February 5 at 6pm!

  3. I will be on Facebook Live (and just realized I’ll have to borrow someone’s Facebook) via the Carver County Library on Tuesday, February 20 at 6:30pm!

March

  1. I will be at the Tucson Book Festival March 9-10, in Tucson Arizona! I have three panels on Saturday and Sunday: “The Magic of Storytelling” with Olivie Blake, Roshani Chokshi, and Suyi Davies Okungbowa; “A Good Villain is Hard to Find” with Cory Doctorow, Jonathan Maberry, and Moses Ose Utomi; and “The Draw of Dark Academia” with Melissa Marr and Olivie Blake.

  2. I’ll be at International Conference for the Fantastic in the Arts on March 13-16 in Orlando, Florida! I’m on a panel on Whimsy.

  3. I’ll be at Mini Con in Minneapolis, Minnesota on March 29-31! I’ll be on two panels, “Accidental Romance” and “Libraries and Bookstores and Magic, Oh My!”

Please vote for me in the Goodreads Choice Awards thank you

I am going to experiment with linking my newsletter posts here, too, so I don’t have to type everything twice. Here’s my post from today.

One of the salient points is a shameless request to please vote for Ink Blood Sister Scribe in the opening round of the Goodreads Choice Awards! It’s up for both Best Debut Novel and Best Fantasy.

Also, I just saw that the hardcover is 50% off on Amazon for Black Friday, a mere fourteen dollars and eighty one cents ($14.81). WOW. What a deal, huh? What… a… deal.
