Impressions posted on my blog at http://blog.james-knapp.com/?p=1952 - it was a great trip!

Balticon, here I come...

New art and photos in the Art section (well, new as of a few days ago...)

I will be at Balticon this Friday, Saturday and Sunday.  Hope to see some of you there!  I'm up for the Compton Crook, wish me luck!

I have a very special giveaway going on over at SF Signal, through May 21.  Check it out:

Well, alas I did not win (that honor went to Mark Hodder for The Strage Affair of Spring Heeled Jack), but the whole thing was great fun.  It was an honor to be a finalist, and I enjoyed meeting the other authors who attended.  Congrats to Mark on the win, and I can say that had you been there to hear the reading from his book, you would likely want to read it as well if you haven't already.

Hope to see some of you there!

State of Decay made the short list for the BSFA Compton Crook Award.

My debut novel State of Decay has been nominated for the Philip K. Dick Award.
