A couple of weeks ago, I announced that I was joining Speculate! The Podcast for Writers, Readers, and Fans, taking up the duties of co-host while co-founder Bradley P. Beaulieu takes a temporary hiatus to focus on his writing.

Return of Promonado
We’re just 8 days from The Shootout Solution‘s release, and my Promonado has already begun. Here’s a quick round-up of reviews and appearances so far.
Reviews:
“The Shootout Solution is Genre blending fun.”
–Fangirl Nation
“Snappy dialogue, twisting plot turns, and efficiently written action scenes combine with a strongly realized protagonist that reminds me of a old friend from my art school days, not a cardboard cut-out of the “strong female character” trope.”
–Polychromantium
Podcasts:
Talking Genre with Daniel Benson on The Kingdoms of Evil.
Q&A at GenCon with James L. Sutter and Kameron Hurley for Writing Excuses.
And just in this very hour – the first of several videos we shot at Macmillan HQ about Genrenauts. This one is an introduction to the world and concept:
Rocket Talk!
A few weeks ago, I recorded an episode of Rocket Talk, the Tor.com podcast, with host Justin Landon. We talked about Planescape, the New Weird, SHIELD AND CROCUS (as a new weird/superhero mashup), and then we had a bonus discussion about urban fantasy).
You can listen to the episode here.
Since I didn’t get to mention it during the chat, I want to plug a couple works that I think are worth looking at as part of a broader discussion of the New Weird and its effects:
THE CRAFT SEQUENCE (starting with THREE PARTS DEAD) by Max Gladstone
THE MIRROR EMPIRE by Kameron Hurley
and because it doesn’t get talked up enough, THE ETCHED CITY by KJ Bishop.
Happy listening!
SF Squeecast
Earlier this month, I had the sublime fortune of being a guest on the Hugo-Award-Winning SF Squeecast, joining Seanan McGuire, Paul Cornell, Lynne Thomas, and Michael Damian Thomas.

We talked about expectations, how expectations influence the way we experience content, how we squee, and how publishers/creators set expectations about their work.
Then, at the end, they ask me their standard questions, which are comedic and serious by turn.
It was a fantastic time, and I’m very grateful to the SF Squeecast team for having me on.
Geekomancy and Celebromancy on BoingBoing
Today I woke to the delightful news that Geekomancy and Celebromancy got recommendation shout-outs from Ramez Naam on Gweek, a BoingBoing podcast.
From Russia With Doubt (Gweek podcast 138)
*pinches self* Yep, that happened.
Huge thanks to Mez, who is a friend, a wickedly smart guy, and an excellent author. His debut science fiction novel Nexus just got nominated for the Arthur C. Clarke Award, you know. If you haven’t checked it out, definitely go do so.
