A 2nd novel sent to the editor this year, in time for @glasgow2024.bsky.social! Here I'm holding the one launched at @icecon.bsky.social. Can't wait to absorb everything at #Worldcon, meeting new and old friends. I'll be on two panels: Combining Genres and Building Fictional Folklores. #Glasgow2024

Congratulations to @scalzi.com for winning the Japanese Seiun award for the Kaiju Preservation Society 🥳
Oh, hey! Kaiju Preservation Society just won the Seiun Award for Translated Novel! That's the Japanese equivalent of a Hugo Award. I'm thrilled to have won, and for this novel in particular, which is a love letter to a distinctly Japanese cultural phenomenon. It feels especially meaningful.
