There is something a bit recursive about posting this at all - but this link made me laugh!

Update

No new developments - I'm waiting for my editor's comments on the manuscript - but I gather that The Snow Queen is slated for publication in Fall 2010.

More thoughts to follow!

Sequel-writing

I had a post up yesterday at the HarperTeen Myspace page...

... and if you follow the underlying links, you will (a) read about delicious things and (b) learn that I have finished a good draft of the sequel to The Explosionist - it is The Snow Queen, and it is with my editor now!

I'll post more details here once I have a clearer sense of when the book is likely to see the light of day.

Plucky schoolgirl foils enemy plot!

Charlotte has a very nice Explosionist bit...

I am also rather thrilled to have made Tamora Pierce's list of her favorite books of 2008!

Lists

The Explosionist makes the Cybils Fantasy and Science Fiction shortlist! I am in very good company, I see...
