Recent news:

My author-feature piece, where I read from my story The Mechanical Aviary of Emperor Jalal-ud-din Muhammad Akbar (in Shimmer's Clockwork Jungle issue) is up!

Relatedly, The Mechanical Aviary of Emperor Jalal-ud-din Muhammad Akbar will be reprinted in Ann and Jeff Vandermeer's Steampunk Reloaded: Volume 2, coming out this fall. I'm really thrilled about this (squee!)

And Nira and I will be reprinted in the second Apex Book of World SF! This is edited by Lavie Tidhar, who I think is pretty awesome, so that's an added bonus :)

Apsara and The Bears are Working have been Rhysling-nominated, and will be in the 2010 Rhysling anthology!
