In the midst of all my finals grading, a fun project has appeared — writing out the pronunciations for about 54 words, places, and names used in Clockwork Heart, to help in the recording of the Brilliance Audio book, which begins later this month. Yay! This is another first for me, and I’m enjoying the [...]

I just received my author’s copies of Das mechanische herz, the German-language edition of Clockwork Heart. It’s incredible, seeing my first novel translated into another language; I’d dreamed about writing a fantasy novel ever since I was a child, and seeing Clockwork Heart in print was the realization of that dream. However, I never dreamed [...]

Heather Massey has written an update on the latest steampunk romance novels in “Steampunk Romance Watch” on Galaxy Express — I try to keep my reading up to date, but I hadn’t run across mention of Regina Riley’s novel Clockwork & Corsets before, so it’s time to [...]

Oliver Graute, the art director for Feder & Schwert, kindly sent me this preliminary draft of Clockwork Heart‘s German cover to show around! I’m delighted to see that they were able to work with Timothy Lantz’s gorgeous artwork — be sure to check out Lantz’s website Stygian Darkness, if you haven’t already. and here’s a [...]

A guest post by Heather Massey over at Dear Author is titled “The Case for Steampunk Romance“: Steampunk romance is a subgenre that’s ripe for exploring. I’m surprised it hasn’t happened before now to any great degree. While steampunk-as-argument generally explores many dark themes in the science fiction arena, it’s the Edisonade components of the [...]

I’m elated to announce that I’ve signed a contract with Feder & Schwert GmbH to publish a German-language edition of Clockwork Heart. Feder & Schwert is a particularly awesome publisher to be associated with because it handles novels by such well-known fantasy writers as Simon Green, Charlaine Harris, and Tanya Huff, among others, and it [...]

Liviu at Fantasy Book Critic has just posted a notice about my sale of An Agreement with Hell. Thank you for your kind words about Clockwork Heart, too! I hope reviewers will enjoy Agreement. It’s very different from CH, so I’m a little concerned that some will go to it expecting a romantic fantasy and [...]
