One way or another, I will survive this book.

Back, vile doubt monsters.

Let's talk about anxiety, travel, and the illusion of normalcy. As some of you know, I have a pretty severe anxiety disorder, one amplified by change, unfamiliar surroundings, pressure, and food. But I'm also an author, one who needs to be able to travel. One of the tricks I've found, a small way to create a sense of stability, is to have a good that goes with me. This is my breakfast. Peanut butter and banana on toast with a cup of breakfast tea. Whether I'm in Nashville, Edinburgh, New York, or on tour, it's what I eat every morning. Starting my day with something simple and familiar helps create a small sense of continuity, a patch of solid ground. It seems small--in many ways it is small--but it helps me stay healthy and calm so I can get to all those book events.

Today's office.

This floof came with my @bookoutlet order.

Came home to a cat and a zillion pieces of mail but also four foreign editions!!

Your daily reminder, courtesy of my trip to @torbooks.

My life, in summation.

Behold! The cover and pitch for CITY OF GHOSTS! On shelves August 28th!!

Getting a lot of questions about CITY OF GHOSTS, and since the cover reveal is tomorrow, I thought now would be a good time to share some details!

This puppy has magical plot-working powers.

I have stolen this puppy from my editor. It is my puppy now.

The cover reveal for CITY OF GHOSTS is going live on Monday!! In the meantime, behold the glorious title treatment.

VENGEFUL might be the death of me but at least I can take pretty walks through this wonderland.

My office for the next week? A converted church in upstate NY, where my editor and I are working on VENGEFUL. Eli Ever would approve.
