New Release Vigil by Angela Slatter

I don't know how I could have missed this one, but one of my fave writers of the weird has a new book out. Her first novel after a gazillion short stories and some excellent mosaic collaborations and short story collections.

I suspect you might be able to get it on Amazon now but Booktopia has a release date for the paperback set for next Tuesday.

You can pre-order it here.

The Stars Askew - release imminent

Pre-order at Booktopia

Just a short post to let you know that I am still alive and writing poetry over at the poetry blog.  I also wanted to mention that Rjurik Davidson will be launching the second book in his Caeli-Amur series The Stars Askew will be released at the end of the month.

I reviewed Unwrapped Sky almost exactly two years ago here.

If you are an Aussie reading this, Booktopia also have free shipping on during until midnight 13 July, just type the word COSY in the appropriate place at checkout.

Other recent or upcoming works by Aussie authors you might also check out:

Marvel's Captain America - Sub Rosa by David McDonald

I am sure I have missed some too, so feel free Aussie authors to let me know in the comments.

I am still on the poetry plan

Year of Poetry Update Week 7

This week the battle was technical, had issues with the computer but still managed to do just over 18 hours of work.  I was largely able to hit this target due to the lack of paid work around at the start of semester.

I expect (hope) to get at least a couple of days next week impinging on my schedule but I don't see this as a big threat. [Read On]

Year of Poetry into Third Week

So how am I enjoying my hiatus from book reviewing?

Very much so.  Doing lots of poetry writing.  You can check out what's happening over at the Poetry blog here.
