One week from today, I fly to San Francisco to get ready for my awesome NIGHT AND SILENCE book release party at @borderlands_sf! It's likely to be the last Traveling Circus and Snake-Handling Show at the current location: BE THERE.
If you can't BE THERE, be aware that @borderlands_sf does mail order! You, too, can get your books signed, personalized, and shipped out all over the world.
One week from this coming Sunday, I will be flying from Oakland, California, to Orlando, Florida, to spend a blessed week at Walt Disney World.

And now, some Wayward Children questions, for your edification and delight.
WHY DID YOU WRITE THE FIRST BOOK?

I wrote a song several years ago, called "Wicked Girls Saving Ourselves." It's the title song of my second "serious" CD, which got nominated for a Hugo Award. It was about all the girls from portal fantasies who got a raw deal.
When @LeeAHarris at @TorDotComPub asked me for a novella, I thought of that song, and how much I wanted to write the story that went with it, but how much I didn't want to be locked into those unhappy endings. The story followed.

So hey:

Like most people, I like what I like. I like canned peas and candy corn and hard cheeses. I like plain chicken breasts with a little bit of salt. I like Diet Dr Pepper and I like blueberries and I like popcorn.
I also like things that aren't food! I like My Little Ponies (generation one) and I like ball-jointed dolls and I like collectible pins and I like blind boxes. I like big towels and too many pillows and American Girl doll furniture.
Maybe you like all these things, too! Maybe you like none of these things! Maybe, like most people, you're somewhere in the middle, positive toward some things, negative toward others, neutral toward many.

THE NATIONAL GARDEN BUREAU HAS SPOKEN.
2019 IS THE YEAR OF THE PUMPKIN.
AS HIS PRIESTESS--HONORED BE HIS PATCH--THE GREAT PUMPKIN HAS SELECTED ME TO SHARE THE WISDOM OF GOURD AND GROUND.
We must plant if we are to reap. Even the Great Pumpkin--hallowed be his vines--needs time to ripen from seed to spectacle. Don't be down on yourselves if you aren't instantly perfect. Don't force yourself to produce when it isn't time.
Every field requires a time to lie fallow. We say "fallow fields" as if that means something useless, but really, it means rest and restoration. It means giving the soil time to heal. Be as kind to yourself as you are to the soil.

As media, intelligence agency, and political scrutiny of foreign meddling is seemingly at its apex, a story with big national security implications involving a high-ranking senator with access to America’s most sensitive intelligence information has been hiding in plain sight.

1) I was born and am currently living in California. While I am proud of my state for giving us Ronald Reagan, I am deeply ashamed at it for giving us this woman: Kamala Harris
2) Harris is my Junior Senator and considered a rising star in the Democratic party, and as I've told many of my colleagues, either the 2020 or 2024 Democratic nominee for President @LarrySchweikart @ColBannister @ThomasWictor @drawandstrike @Imperator_Rex3 @Debradelai
3) So far to the left to make Joe Biden seem like a Republican, she is known for being incredibly partisan and radical

So, as you've probably heard, here in San Francisco our Mayor died. I have a few thoughts about Ed Lee I'd like to share, especially because his obituaries are so poor.
First I'll say that there is a lot Lee did that I did not agree with. Those things are why I politely declined a seat with him at his table for the annual SF Pride (Alice B. Toklas) LGBTQ brunch two years ago. (I did sit at his table for the brunch this year.)
Lee was the son of a restaurant cook and grew up in poverty. Lee washed dishes at his father's side until his father died (young) of a heart attack. Lee witnesses his father being treated like a "coolie" and hated it.
