My first signing in England will be August 7, at Forbidden Planet in London from 1700-1900. See you all there!



London, here I come

I will also be appearing at Nine Worlds on August 8 in London.

Saturday 8 August.
  • 15.00- 16.00 – Kaaffeklatch

  • 17.00-18.15 – “The dead will rise again” (Resurgence of Gothic Literature)

  • 18.30 – 19.30 – Book signing

  • 20:30-21.45 – “The F-Word in Fantasy” (Sex in Fantasy)
So for all you fans that have been asking, “When will you do a signing in Europe?” These events are for you, so come out and see me, because I’m finally here and I don’t know when I’ll be back.

I'm not 100% positive what a real Kaaffeklatch is, but the single convention I go to every year has a few of them. If I go by that, they seem to be informal question and answers with an author (or other person of honor) in the morning hours over coffee and pastries. I think it's a bit more British than American, but I can be wrong.

A 'real' Kaffeeklatsch is a meeting of women of equal status in society to gossip in the afternoon and have coffe and cake. Goes back to the bourgeoisie in the 18th century.

Well, I learned something new. I always thought it meant "coffee and pastries".
