MarsCon Schedule and Sword & Laser Interview

Miscellaneous Updates:

• Charlie Stross wrote a blog post called “The Next Big Thing,” sharing his own thoughts about writers chasing the market.
• I reviewed William Alexander’s book Goblin Secrets on Monday. If you’re interested in checking it out, Edward Greaves mentioned that Goblin Secrets is $1.99 for Kindle in the U.S. today.

I’ll be doing an interview with The Sword & Laser this Friday, which is excellent. They want to know what you think they should ask me. Questions can be submitted over at Goodreads.
