marthawellsSo yeah, kind of hard to concentrate on work while being consumed by rage. I've been to conventions in the Minneapolis area and I have a lot of friends up there, and one of my goddaughters and her husband live there.
For instance, this is Greg Ketter, from DreamHaven Books, where I've done signings, at the protest and running into tear gas:

I've been doing mutual aid and sending donations where I can (https://www.standwithminnesota.com/) which is helping my sanity somewhat.
Other stuff I should link to:
Interview with me on Space.com https://www.space.com/entertainment/space-books/martha-wells-next-murderbot-diaries-book-is-the-family-roadtrip-from-hell-on-ringworld-interview
Weather permitting, I'll be guest of honor this coming weekend at AggieCon in College Station: https://www.aggiecon.net/
That's all I've got right now. Abolish ICE.

(And hey, thank you for creating Murderbot. My partners and I love those books.)

Date: 2026-01-28 09:08 am (UTC)I thought you might get a kick out of knowing there are several very well traveled copies of All Systems Red in the library of the cruise ship I'm on. There's a grand total of 36 SSF individual titles, with several copies of each book. All Systems Red are usually down to one or none.
