This week I’m planning to finish the last (cross your fingers) revisions for Huntress, so I won’t be around much online. But I will be doing a few things in real life that I want to tell you about.

Tuesday night, April 13, I’ll be reading from Ash at the 22nd Annual Lambda Literary Awards Finalists Reading at the San Francisco Public Library. I’m one of 16 finalists (!!) who will be reading from their works. Here are the details:

Later this week, on Saturday afternoon, I’ll be attending the Northern California Book Awards, also at the San Francisco Public Library. Ash is nominated in the Children’s/Teen category! I’ll be nervously waiting to see if it wins. Here are the details:

I also have some great foreign rights news to share … Ash will be published in Germany in November 2010 by PAN. And sometime within the next year, Ash will be published in Turkey by Artemis Yayinlari. How cool is that? I’m thrilled that Ash is making its way around the world.

And now, I’m going back to revising Huntress.
