Shadows of the Apt

Damn me, but there is a lot of good stuff at Eastercon, enough that I would need about three of me working in shifts to see all the panels, talks, readings etc. that caught my eye. (Link to schedule here.)
My own appearances at the con are:
Friday 6^th — 5pm — room 12 — I'll be at the launch […]

… grand title for glorified news post.
Quick event update: this weekend I’m guest of honour at Picocon alongside serious SF authors Justina Robson and Tricia Sullivan, and am going to have to make some sort of speech. I have no fricking idea what I’m going to say, a state of affairs that may persist until I stand up in […]

And nuts to the Mayans (1).
I will shortly have a crack at another post on computer games, this time with the spotlight on role-playing (or lack of same), but currently research is, er, taking up all my time.
For now, just a quick update.
The various projects that I previously mentioned I was contributing to are now all up for grabs, being:
Vivisepulture, […]

Another post! What do I think this is, Twitter? Anyway, the signing mills are grinding somewhat faster these days so this is really an upd
Hmm. Just as well this isn't twitter. Can't be brief to save my life (1).
Anyway, an update of the last one — so grand Heirs of the Blade tour is now:
Friday 14^th October (vis: tomorrow) […]

The Reading signing, this Friday 14^th at 6-8pm, will be at the Oracle shopping centre Waterstones, not the Broad Street one I've been at before (1). Saturday's threeway signathon at Forbidden Planet, London, 1-2pm is still on as advertised.
I will also be signing somewhat festively at the Leeds Waterstones 12–2 on Friday the 16^th December […]

It's that time of year, or one of those times of year, when there's basically too much to blog about (1)
First of all, Signings and Events for the near and moderate future now include:
This weekend (30^th September-1^st October) Fantasycon, Royal Albion Hotel, Brighton. Complete programme here and rather like Alt Fiction earlier on, there's plenty of […]

Firstly, I am very happy to present a complete (to date) set of maps for the world of the Insect-kinden here — and when I say complete, I include a map of the Commonweal, as a sneak preview from Heirs of the Blade.
For the news, very briefly:
Rebis, one of my all-time favourite publishers, have picked up the rights to the Polish translation […]

Here is first blush at what I'm doing for Pyrkon next weekend:
On Saturday 26^th:
2:00 pm — Adrian Tchaikovsky — meeting with the author
place: Aula
4:00 pm — Creation of TRULY Original Fantasy World — utopia or a matter of
imagination. Adrian Tchaikovsky
place: Aula
After that there is a 'signing time'.
On Monday,  one more meeting with readers in Wroclaw (at 5.00 pm)

Share […]

Very brief post to confirm the Oxford Waterstones signing on the 9^th April will be a 2pm.
Tomorrow for the Leeds Waterstone alongside Robson, Remic & McMahon, please do come along if you can.
End of the month is Pyrkon over in Wroclaw, Poland. I'm doing a talk. Apparently. This is a bit new, and it will also be kind of through-translated. […]

A little jig around but:
12^th March — 11am-1pm signing at Leeds Waterstones in excellent company, vis Justina Robson (last book of her Quantum Gravity series just out!), and Gary McMahon and Andy Remic who write for Angry Robot.
9^th April — signing at Oxford Waterstones — time to be confirmed. This is the 5^th March event that's […]
