Happy New Year!
I hope you all had a lovely New Years Eve. I know I did. There was a prominently featured swimming pool filled with champagne and lavender petals. But even more exciting, I made a dozen best of the year lists! I want to thank you all for being so amazing. This was my first novel, and I really could not have expected such a warm, wonderful reaction, and so many amazing fans. So thank you.
January is going to be an exciting month. For starters, that contest for a signed copy of the book is still happening (although it occurs to me that perhaps I should make the rules less requiring of having read the book – more on that later). I start teaching at Gotham Writers, I’ll be having an interview with the fabulous Paula Yoo, and perhaps most exciting of all, I have a reading at the New York Public Library on January 30th.
I hope all of you in the NYC area will come.
It’s going to be quite the month. And I’ve been told it’s also award nomination season – so if any of you were inclined to nominate All Men of Genius for anything in the novel or debut author categories, I would be ever so appreciative. It would make 2012 start off perfectly.
So that’s whats happening in January. There will also be some new reviews coming out, including one in Locus (which is already out, I believe), and there’s more to come in February, including more interviews and such. I really hope it’ll be a brilliant year for all of us. Thank you guys again for making the last one so amazing.
