Writing

Well, I've finally gotten the go-ahead from my editor to make an announcement I've been sitting on for awhile now, and I'm VERY excited to be able to reveal that:

Drum roll...

I have signed with Wizards of the Coast to write TWO more Eberron books!

I can't say much more than that right now, just wanted to let all my loyal fans know you can expect a double dose of Eberron from me in the not-too-distant future. I hope you're all as jazzed about the prospect as I am!

Everything Else

In other news, my skin biopsy came back...inconclusive. There were indications of both an allergic reaction AND a viral exanthem. So now I'm waiting for the blood test results to come in, which will at least tell me if it was Fifth Disease or not. The itching has, mercifully, mostly subsided (thank you, St. Anthony the Great!), so as long as BB is unaffected, it's all good.

I'm feeling: Book contracts! Woohoo!!!! Book contracts! Woohoo!!!!

Woo hoo!

That's great news! Can you share if the books are related (a duology) or books in seperate series (like LoW was one of the Inquisitives)?

Congrats!

And prayers continue for your skin reactions...

Yay! I loved Wolves (though I never quite did write that review I kept meaning to on my LJ--sorry!), so I'm looking forward to seeing more of Eberron from your pen.

Hugs, well wishes, and prayers for the skin ailment.
