The Author @ Worldcon 74, Forward Peek

At Worldcon 74 in Kansas City, I was invited to be part of the Worldbuilders of Science Fiction & Fantasy project by Richard Man.  He uses a large format film camera, and only took two exposures, which felt like a significant way to record an image. Here are both!

1. “Well, folks…”

2. the ‘Starfleet crewmember’

Peek ahead, into the first edit dimension.  There is more, and it’s going through its proper phase.

Book 1, 2nd Printing & 1st Print Autographs

Fire On All Sides, Bones of Starlight Book 1 in paperback is now in second printing! This means that certain innocuous errors have been corrected, and there are two new reviews in the front of the book.  ISBN is the same, it just comes with a different designation on the copyright info page.  Final floating first printings are hidden in select stores in Friday Harbor, WA, USA.  And the second paperback printing is shiny enough for gift giving!

The great new reviews:

“She makes the act of envisioning a universe, giving it life on paper, and making it accessible to her readers seem like a simple feat.  Though her writing charmed me with its luminous quality, much like LeGuin’s, Ms. Elasigue has her own voice. It is miraculous and full of warmth, and one to cherish.”
– Zeta Moore, Black Gate, World Fantasy Award-winning online periodical

“It’s really good.”
– Richard Chwedyk, Nebula Award-winning author of Bronte’s Egg

I’m retiring my copy of the paperback 1st printing, and here are the many wonderful people who have graced the pages with their eyes and signatures:

Contents, Menus

Book 1 and Book 2 of Bones of Starlight are now centrally sorted on the top menu.  The contents are up-to-date again and easy to find, and link to buy is sorted with its book.

The Sequences and sections of The Enfolding Abyss are now numbered to follow the first book, Fire On All Sides.  For print purposes they’re separate books, but the storyline is continuously numbered – like an academic journal.  The old numbers will remain for a while to direct the confused.

Author and Primal Spiral imprint links are now subcategories of About.

These, and many other things, have been done to make our lives better.  Back to the story.
