Good News Bad News on the Reading Front

Just thought I would share what to me is Good News and Bad News on the reading front.

I finally checked out Lisa Shearin's web site. http://www.lisashearin.comHer Raine Benares has come to an end.  That part is Bad News. It was very well done, an exciting world and a great hero. But the Good News is that she has started a new series. A Urban Fantasy The SPI Files.  The Bad News is that won't be done until next year, which means it won't be published a few months after that--maybe the year after?.  Seems like she is going slower on this one.  Oh she may also be doing a spin off of the Benares universe. I may know which character she might use. And I want to say it's a world I would like to write in.


Some so so News.
Checked out Margaret Ronald's blog. A while back she came out with a "Wild Hunt" series. Great stuff even though darker than usual even for UF. I've been trying to find out if she is doing any other brooks. Over a period of months it sounded like she was revising a book but when I went backwards through her blogs to try to find it, I found nothing that would indicate she was. She's doing great with short stories, probably not but it almost sounds like she is selling every third story she sends out. Which is one reason I seem to have a bit of writing envy with her. The second reason is who she is selling too. Most of the markets I am trying at. But I will at least check out whatever book she puts out next...if she does.

There might be a PS to this since I need to check out laura anne gilman's site and C. E. Murphy's Gilman has evidently ended another great series so I need to see what she is planning next.
