Ever wonder what a writing pirate does when she's not plundering the high seas with her laptop at her hand? She dances. (My individual photos are numbers 193-213. Check out that excellent backbend that I practiced for ages to get right!) I'll be dancing at the Carolina Renaissance Faire this season, so come on out and give me a zaghareet. If you don't know how, don't fret - we'll teach you.

My agent emailed me last night to tell me she'd gotten her advance copy of the book, and to thank me for remembering her in the acknowledgements. As if I wouldn't thank her! Ever since I started this whole novel-writing business, I dreamed of being published by Tor, and she made that happen for me. Yeah, I'd say I'm a bit grateful.
