Here is some press coverage about my upcoming book, Beards of our Forefathers: an article at Publishers Weekly, another at some other site, and the official Dark Horse press release.

Also, to answer some readers’ questions about the book: I’m encouraging Amazon pre-orders now, but I will also have signed copies available for purchase directly from my store once it comes out in the summer. Anyone who buys the book via Amazon or their local bookstore will also be able to, if they like, send me their copy for signature/personalization.

While I’m posting articles, here’s another (very favorable) review of a short story I had featured in Pseudopod recently. The mention of my story, “Fever,” is near the bottom of the page.

The long-awaited How to Make Webcomics book from the Halfpixel guys is finally out! I got my copy yesterday and it’s a chunky brick o’ love: equally pressed, condensed wood pulp AND pressed, condensed comics brilliance. It’s available from Dave, Kris, Brad, or Scott, and since they split the profits you can just pick the dude closest to you: L.A., Texas, Philly or Cairo.
