April 2026 Hello, everyone, and welcome back to my overhauled but still very irregular newsletter! This coming weekend is RavenCon in Richmond, VA (https://www.ravencon.com). I’ll be vending there — my first appearance as myself, selling only my own books instead of hiding behind a screen of promoting other people’s work. I’m a lot more nervous…
Promotion Time….
Of conventions and clumsy promotional attempts
Women in Cartography
Of women in cartography worldwide, past to present, and how their work can be useful for writing fiction.
Mapping Out Maps
In which I begin a rambling research path about maps in general.
Finally Feeling Myself
At the risk of jinxing it, for the first time in almost a month I feel like myself. I’m daring to hope that the worst of this stupid bronchitis has passed and I can start rebuilding my stamina at last. Hope with me!
