Cool Springtime Stuff

It is kinda sorta spring. Well, it's March, which means that it's sunny and cloudy and windy and still and cold and a bit warm. The daffodils are blooming, at least. 

I have taken to walking home from the gym or the station by going through the Abbey Gardens (look up Bury St Edmunds and you'll see what I'm talking about). A bit of green, and staying away from road noise, is good for the soul.

On that note, here is some cool stuff:
The trailer for the movie A Little Chaos, about the building of the gardens at Versailles, starring Kate Winslet and Alan Rickman. Um, TAKE MY MONEY! I can't wait to see this in all its fluffy, flowery, costumey splendor!

I learned today about Margery Fish and her first gardening book, We Made a Garden, in which she worked to undo all of the fussy and over-organized *lawn* that her late husband built. Once I turn in the PhD, I shall find this book and wallow in it a bit.

My friend Ferrett Steinmetz's debut novel Flex is a hell of a lot of fun and is getting great reviews at Amazon and Goodreads.

Outlander is *finally* coming to tv here in the UK! I first read the first book over half my lifetime ago. This makes me stupidly happy.

And tomorrow I teach my final classes before the Easter break. Two weeks *off* (for the most part. I will still be slogging away at the PhD)!

Cue the hyperventilation!

A random box of hardback copies of Irregularity were found at the National Maritime Museum, so Jared the editor has arranged for us to do a signing, and it looks like the majority of the authors are going to be there. Forbidden Planet is a mecca of sorts for SFF fans, so the fact that I get to hang out with the other writers, meet new people, and sign my story ("Fairchild's Folly," the final story in the line-up) means that this is a dream come true :)

Where: Forbidden Planet, Shaftesbury Ave, London
When: Saturday, March 7 from 1-2 pm
