Hi, I'm a Book Reviewer
Okay, I know. I review for this blog…but now I’m also going to be reviewing for Dirty Magick Magazine.
This means I’m now specifically looking for urban fantasy, grittier/more street level sword & sorcery, and gothic fantasy. The tagline is “We don’t care what the king is doing.”
I’ll keep reviewing other stuff for this blog. I’m contracted for one year and a certain number of reviews, but obviously hoping this will be a longer term thing.
Balticon was great except for my elevator jinx continuing…four elevators isn’t enough. Two is very definitely just not enough…and one of them was out all weekend.
Lots of interesting conversations, a rare opportunity to talk frankly and publicly about sex, and at one point the atrium broke out into a wedding! (A queer wedding, of course…officiated by a Catholic priest, except it was also a Wiccan handfasting, which sums up the Balticon community right there).
Next stop for me is Kansas City…and if you happen to be there, we’re opening our networking reception on Friday evening to the public. Authors will be signing books and you can hang out with us. There will, I assume, be a cash bar, because this is a writers’ conference.
This might be the only time I ever go to Kansas City, so if you’re in that area please swing by and say hi!
