now you see her...
Bestselling author of historical fiction including THE ARCTIC FURY and the Five Queendoms epic fantasy series (SCORPICA, ARCA).
Just a quick post for New Englanders to let you know that I’ll be at RJ Julia in Madison, Connecticut on Monday, February 5, in conversation with my good friend Heather Webb about her amazing new book QUEENS OF LONDON.
Get the details here!
ARCA is soooooo close to here! It comes out on Tuesday, March 7, and I can’t wait to have the next installment of the Five Queendoms saga out in the world.
If you’re in the Boston area, I’d love to see you at Wellesley Books on Tuesday, where I’ll be in conversation with Amanda Foody and C.L. Herman, authors of All of Us Villains. March 7 at 7pm, easy to remember.
Tickets are required to attend, so please get yours here!
Hi there! Such fun stuff happening this fall! First of all, New York ComicCon was an absolute blast. Also, did you know SCORPICA will be available in paperback in just a couple short weeks? Yay!
Last but not least for today, I’ll be appearing at the Texas Book Festival this weekend and I absolutely cannot wait! It’ll be my first book festival in quite a while. I’ve got a panel on Saturday, November 5, in conversation with Rebecca Roanhorse: it’s called “Big Fantasy” and it’s going to be awesome.
Hop on over to the festival site for details!
Remember when I said I had two online events this week? It’s actually three, surprise! I’m on Instagram Live with Kate Khavari, author of A Botanist’s Guide to Parties and Poisons, talking about “Writing While Momming” tonight.
Join us if you can!
Suddenly, a flurry of events! I’m appearing online twice this week, and really excited about both.
First, I’m returning to Reddit for another AMA! I’ll be at r/Fantasy at 1pm on Monday, June 6, to talk about all things SCORPICA. Matriarchy! Fantasy! Queens dueling to the death! Why my female sorcerers are never called sorceresses! That kind of thing.
Then, on Tuesday, June 7, I’m on a panel with a bunch of fabulous ladies for the Edmonton Public Library, talking about women-centered stories (particularly historical fiction, but I’ll answer questions about fantasy too if you ask them.) You can register for that one here.
So catch me online if you can! And next week, I’ll actually be in person… see the Events page for details.
Hi there! Here’s one for the historical fiction fans in the audience — I’ll be interviewing Heather Webb about her fabulous new book THE NEXT SHIP HOME on Wednesday, March 30, at 7:30pm. (The graphic says 7, but I promise, it’s 7:30. Go ahead and click here to sign up.
Hi there! If you’re in the greater DC area, you have two chances to hear me talk about SCORPICA in the coming weeks! These are on my Events page also, but here’s the key info for the locals:
March 2 at 6:30pm — the Eldersburg Branch of CCPL, presented by A Likely Story. Register here.
March 9 at 7pm — One More Page Bookstore, Arlington, VA. Register here.
Hope to see you soon!
One of my favorite ongoing book event series (serieses?) is Friends and Fiction, and I’m beyond honored to be participating in their show for the second time! The main event tonight is V.E. Schwab (who I looooove) talking about her new book GALLANT, and I’ll be on the 15-minute aftershow, my first public virtual event for SCORPICA.
It’s all on the Friends & Fiction page.
Just one event this week, and it’s a corker! I’m delighted to be appearing at An Unlikely Story* with Serena Burdick and Judithe Little, talking about THE ARCTIC FURY along with their new historical novels FIND ME IN HAVANA and THE CHANEL SISTERS!
(* = yes, I have events this month at both A Likely Story and An Unlikely Story and I’m glad I didn’t show up at the wrong one… yet)
Sign up to join us Thursday, won’t you?
The Arctic Fury has been out for 10 weeks now and I still get to have virtual events every week! How awesome is that? Things will be slowing down soon, but… not for another month or so, and that’s amazing.
And I’m particularly thrilled to join this Wednesday’s event with Friends & Fiction, the powerhouse group of five bestselling authors who have taken these awful pandemic lemons and made sweet, lively, delicious lemonade. I’m even more excited because my fellow guest is Susan Meissner, whose new novel The Nature of Fragile Things is set in one of my favorite moments of historic importance — the 1906 San Francisco earthquake — and I adored that book. So join us! There will be much gushing!
