Takin' care of business
We haven't done one of those for a while, so!
The Obligatory Buy My Books Post
Civilized Behavior: Adventures in the Liaden Universe® Volume #36 is now available for preorder as an ebook from All The Usual Suspects. It will be available for instant purchase-and-download from Baen on November 13.
There will be a paper edition. In theory, it will be available for order from Amazon on November 12.
Paired charity anthologies A Future for Ferals, and More Futures for Ferals, edited by Danielle Ackley-McPhail are now available for purchase. "Ginger and the Bully of Lowergate Court," by Sharon Lee, is reprinted in More Futures. Across these two volumes are over forty stories about cats written by authors who know and love them. All stories are donated; the profits from anthology sales go to feral cat charity A Future for Ferals.
The kickstarter for Adversity and Audacity is now live, a reprint anthology featuring fiction by writers who continued to write despite cancer diagnoses/treatment. Twenty authors and over 120,000 words of fiction, and we're not yet done. In addition to a Foreword provided by Robert J. Sawyer, and an Afterword by Susan Palwick, work by N.R. Brown • Adam-Troy Castro • Dave Creek • Ef Deal • Tom Doyle • Gregory Frost • Sally Wiener Grotta • Karen Heuler • Carol Hightshoe • Walter H. Hunt • Geoffrey A. Landis • Shirley Meier • Sharon Lee and Steve Miller • Juliet Marillier • Christine Morgan • Raven Oak • Martha Roo • Lawrence M. Schoen • Melissa Lee Shaw • M. Turville Heitz. This is not a charity anthology.
The latest Liaden Univese® novel was Diviner's Bow, the third book in the internal arc that includes Trader's Leap, Ribbon Dance, and Diviner's Bow. All three are available as ebooks, hardcovers, and audiobooks. Trader's Leap and Ribbon Dance are also available as mass market paperbacks. The mass market edition of Diviner's Bow will be released in January.
Coming in December, the "anniversary" edition of I Dare by Sharon Lee and Steve Miller.
Bonus answer to the perennial question: What On Earth is the Woman doing?: I'm working on the sequel to Salvage Right, which is to be turned in to Baen in April 2026. It has a title, but I haven't run it by Madame yet.
And that's all the news that's fit to print.
