Some Twelfth Planet Press updates

Horn has been receiving some nice reviews, most recently in Queensland’s Courier Mail yesterday – no online link unfortunately, but we’ll be posting bits and pieces 🙂

New Ceres Nights has also surfaced in a book blog review over at   – good to see the books out and about!

This past week or so has seen a lot of proofing for Deborah Biancotti’s collection A Book of Endings, launching at Continuum next month – dark and deep and somewhat twisty, with beautiful Biancotti soul.

I’ve also spent a bit of time working on some advertising stuff for Twelfth Planet Press, which is now out it the wild.

And this is the last week of the open reading period for (working title) Spec Fic for Kids – submission guidelines are here: http://twelfthplanetpress.wordpress.com/2009/05/20/spec-fic-for-kids-submission-call/ 

If you are really keen to submit but the deadline is looking ominous to you, drop me a line, as I’m a bit flexible for authors I know/have worked with in the past. 

I’m also hitting a stumbling block on the title. Spec Fic for Kids was only intended to be a working title, but now I can’t think of anything else! Suggestions gratefully received!

Recording the day…

‘Twas a busy one. Though you’d not know it to look now, had a big clean up this morning, got some groceries to tide us through the week, picked up some more book boxes from the removalists, then came home to start packing again. The truly awesome   (and Benji!) came at midday and we got all the big bookcase and knick knacks (time consuming, with all the little fiddlies having to find their own boxes – A said it was like an IQ test!) cupboards packed. Thank goodness for  , because it would have taken three times as long without her I’m sure! Yakking does make the time, and work, go faster 🙂  We also went over the proof copy of Horn, and fixed a few final minor issues, and the redo of New Ceres Nights. Look for both at Conjecture next weekend! Horn looks freaking AWESOME – you should go order it 🙂

Friends from Queensland (over for treatment for lung cancer) also visited, which was lovely. They were supposed to be staying with us but between the various illnesses we’ve had and the move, it was easier for them to stay with rellies in South Perth. They might come stay for a few days once we’re in the new house.

And I think I’m all about bed now. Been a busy day!
