Hello there. I haven't been able to log onto Goodreads lately, as apparently the discussion of books interferes with the smooth repression of society in China, and the website is blocked. But through the magic of a VPN, I can intermittently post news.

I am hoping to attend ZomBCon in October. That's in Seattle. So if you're out that way and want to come by and say hi, I'd love to meet you.

Eleven Twenty-Three is out there, lingering and waiting for more people to read it. Maybe that person could be you.

And I'd also like to just throw out that I have just finished Part I of the new novel. I don't want to spoil anything, but I can say that the new one takes place in multiple locales in and around China. It's also a horror novel, I suppose, as it scares the hell out of me late at night when I'm writing it. Lastly, I am detecting a subtle Cormac McCarthy influence in this one. Who knows what that means, but it's there nonetheless.

Hope you guys are all safe, and have said your prayers for Japan.
