Fabryka Slow, my Polish publisher, is launching Malowany Czlowiek, AKA The Painted Man, this Friday, November 28.
As if I didn’t have enough things to be thankful for this year.
It’s a little weird, having the book come out all over the world, in foreign languages even, while I am still waiting for it to come out [...]

Amazon Video Interview

Interviews, Writing| 11 Comments »

While I was in London, I did a video interview for Amazon.co.uk. I wrote a blog post about it last month. The video is meant to be embedded on the Amazon Page for The Painted Man as a sales tool, but I was also told it would be live on YouTube and that I and [...]

Quick post this morning as I need to be out the door shortly. I’m putting Dani and the baby in the car and taking them to my parents’ house, then my partner in crime/evil twin Jay Franco and I are heading up to Albany, NY for Albacon. I will be on a handful of panels [...]

So yesterday I accepted an offer from esteemed Portuguese publisher Edições Gailivro for Portuguese language rights to The Painted Man and two sequels. This makes the number of languages the work [...]

If you’ve been reading regularly, you may recall a few days ago that I linked to a review of The Painted Man from an Australian SF site called A Boy Goes On A Journey, which has articles, book reviews, forums and community building for new and budding writers, and a lot more. Check it out.

Ugh. I’m running out of stuff to talk about, but I don’t want to break my longest daily blogging streak… maybe ever. So… uh, here’s a direct link to the interview I did with Grant Boyden on Sport 927am in Australia. You can tell how nervous I am being on the radio by counting the [...]

As I mentioned yesterday, I did an interview with Grant Boyden at Sport 927am in Victoria, Australia this morning. Despite being a little nervous on live air and saying “um” and “uh” about a thousand times, I managed to get through the interview reasonably competently.
If you’re interested, you can find the interview as a podcast [...]

While The Painted Man was released in hardcover on September 1 in the UK, the trade paperback versions that will go on sale in Australia were shipped by rowboat, and will not be released until the end of September or possibly the beginning of October.
Harper Collins Australia, however, has been working hard behind the scenes [...]

London Day 5 Addendum: Amazon Interview

How did I forget to mention the interview? Ugh. My brain is rotting.
After we stumbled back from Charing Cross, I had time for a quick shower and a bout of nerves. Alice, the young and alluring publicist from Harper Collins, was coming over to my hotel room with a camera crew to film a video [...]

Del Rey Interview

Craft, Interviews, Musings, Reviews, Writing| 1 Comment »

I found this online today; it’s the interview I gave to Del Rey books, which they included in their advance read edition of The Warded Man. I didn’t want to post it myself in case they wanted it exclusively in the ARE, but apparently they didn’t, because I know this site didn’t get the text [...]
