Hi Folks,

I won't be at Ad Astra after all, but I'm almost certainly going to attend CanCon in Ottawa this fall. WHOO!

Almost done GATE. We'll do the cover reveal in June, I believe. Stay tuned for that. Matt Stawicki did another fabulous work for it!

And authors come out of the woodwork. We're a bit like perennials, you realize. Push up through the layers of winter refuse and peer at the sun hopefully. Tidying up is in order, so yes, went and had most of my hair cut off. Whee!! Feeling taller already.
I finished THE GATE TO FUTURES PAST on time and it's with my Extremely Busy editor, so I've a breather to prep for the final book of Reunification. When she's approved the title, I'll let you know. GATE is out Sept 6th, btw. WHOO!! Wait till you see the cover art by http://www.mattstawicki.com (thanks Dwight for correction to url) Wonderful.
I will say I sobbed and sobbed as I wrote GATE. Definite tissue alert, but it's the right ending. WAHHHHH
Other news? Part of spring is the convention season. You'll find details at http://www.czerneda.com but here's a short list:
April 29th Ad Astra Toronto ON
May 20th Keycon Winnipeg MB
Aug 12 When Words Collide Calgary AB
Sept 22 Acadia Night Sky Festival, Bar Harbor Maine

Will I see you?

I'm going to be scarce online while finishing THE GATE TO FUTURES PAST. In the meanwhile, I hope you enjoy This Gulf of Time and Stars

Because in GATE? Oh, so much happens....

Great month and busy. Thanks to bloggers and blog visitors for making the tour and scavenger hunt such a success! We've books and audiobooks yet to give away. If you've received an email saying you've won, please respond. Trust me, not spam.

This month also saw A Play of Shadow take top honours "Best Novel (English)" at the 2015 Prix Aurora Awards. I'm thrilled and still deliciously surprised. Two in a row? Guess I got that fantasy stuff right after all ;-)

There've been launches and fun for This Gulf of Time and Stars, which is now in your hands, dear readers. Enjoy!

Me? Time to tuck in for the winter and finish my next book, THE GATE TO FUTURES PAST, Reunification #2. It's out, fingers crossed, in September 2016.

Cheers! Julie
