There’s Got to Be A Morning After….
Yesterday, I put the final touches on the revisions for SOUL OF FIRE, and sent it off to madame editrix. The next time I see the book, we’ll be in copyedits, and then page proofs, and then a finished book. So it’s not dusted, but yeah… it’s done. And that means my ten year, twelve-book [...]
Heart of Briar is up for pre-order!
You know, if you have a desire for such a thing. He has been taken. And you are his only chance.” That wasn’t something Jan expected to hear-especially from strangers who’d just rescued her from some mysterious and ferocious creatures. And she really hadn’t expected her rescuers to be shape-shifters…. Now it turns out [...]
Reposting the good news from late December, for the New Year.
from Publishers Marketplace: “Laura Anne Gilman’s SYLVAN INVESTIGATIONS, a two-novella set about a half-human, half-faun PI, investigating cases that fall between the cracks of the magical and the mundane, to Jacqueline Smay at Plus One Press, for print rights only.” Yes, these are the Danny novellas we Kickstarted. Yes, I am pretty damn pleased. :-) [...]
Into The New Year
The Year-End Project has been…not exactly put to rest, but it’s on a back burner, 40,000 words prepped and waiting for Discussions. So, what’s up, what’s on deck? Right now, the main priority is getting “Miles to Go” into final shipping shape for the Kickstarter backers. They’re also due a few stories (I haven’t forgotten, [...]
In which I’m getting the hang of this new-fangled multi-prong publishing world….
So, the last week of the year probably isn’t the best of times to announce a deal (nobody’s around to cheer) and I’ll probably re-announce it come January, but the details have been hammered out and I’m pleased to say that PlusOne Press will be doing the trade paper edition* of Miles to Go/Promises to [...]
“Dance” [free fiction alert]
I hesitated about posting this because self-promo seemed wrong today after the tragic events in Connecticut, but I was reminded that we read fiction to escape the pain of the day, and there’s nothing wrong with that… So for those who need distraction, my story “Dance” is up at Buzzy Magazine. http://buzzymag.com/dance-by-laura-anne-gilman/ And yes, this [...]
That was the Weekend That Was (sort of lost in a fog of words)
And with the push of the send tab, SOUL OF FIRE (Portals #2) is off to Madame Editrix. It will come back to me for dire revisions, as she points out all the mis-builds I was too in-the-guts to see, but right now I’m feeling pretty good about the book, and the duology overall. You’ll get [...]
New (ebook) Release: Dragon Virus
Most of the folk here, if you know me as a writer, know me for my novels. I also write short fiction. Some of it’s similar to my novels, and some of it…isn’t. Many years ago, I wrote a story. It was called “End of Days,” and it was, in a phrase, one fucked-up child [...]
Welcome, welcome to L.A. Kornetsky!
There’s nothing like the panic of waking up and thinking OMG NEW BOOK TODAY! If I ever get blasé about that, please hit me. Because EEEEEEEEE! *manages to hop in excitement and shudder in concern, all at once* And yes, launching a new identity AND a new series kind of cranks both sides of that [...]
Updatery is Updated
Under the heading of “better not-early than too-late,” I have (yeah, I know, finally!) updated the DRAGON JUSTICE page, complete with excerpt & ordering info! Soon (how soon? Two weeks. Maybe three…) there will be a chance to Win Valuable Prizes on the Official Release Day(s)! Keep an eye on this page…. I’ve also updated [...]
