I have just received confirmation that both When Will You Rise and Velveteen vs. The Junior Super Patriots are now shipping! These books represent my first solo hardcovers, one under each of my names, and like so many good things, they are here for a limit time.

When Will You Rise: Stories to End the World is published by Subterranean Press, and is limited to 1,000 signed and numbered copies. This gorgeously illustrated collection contains "Countdown" and "Apocalypse Scenario #683: The Box." If you place an order within the next few days, it should reach you in time for the holidays. Oh, and did I mention that we got a starred review from Publishers Weekly? Because yeah. We totally did.

Velveteen vs. The Junior Super Patriots is published by ISFIC Press, and is also limited to 1,000 copies. You can obtain signed copies directly from the publisher, or by contacting Borderlands Books. If you place an order within the next few days, it should reach you in time for the holidays. This volume contains the Velveteen stories through "Velveteen vs. The Blind Date," along with all-new supplemental material, an introduction by Jim Hines, and a valediction by Carrie Vaughn. I'm really happy with it.

So those are my new hardcovers, and they're beautiful, and I'm totally excited about them. Glee!

Aaah, yes! I just got confirmation that WWYR shipped yesterday, but I haven't heard about Velveteen yet. Yay!! Christmas break reading!

Wait. I'm trying not to buy more books. How did you get me to click all those buttons so fast? (Can't wait to read Velveteen! I've been saving them until paper.)

Yay!

And I had to squee over the Grease 2 soundtrack. I thought I was the only person on the planet who liked that movie. :)

Additional squee: even if I didn't get to go to Windycon, I'm eagerly waiting my signed copy 'Midnight Blue-Light Special.' Hopefully delivered in person by Fiona. <3 Thanks for your role in getting us back in touch.

W00t!

Ordering WWYR now, waiting to see if I win Velveteen first. (A girl can dream. A girl also can't afford both in one hit.)

Yay!! I'm not sure if I love my little sister enough to give her the copy of "Velveteen vs" that I just ordered. Maybe. But probably not.

Now I know what SubPress shipped me today.
Their "We shipped you something" emails don't say what it was. It makes preordering from them like random birthdays, because I always forget when things are coming out, and then I get a package that I don't know the contents of.
Yaaaaaaaay!

I had the same thought when ordering through SubPress. The Wicked Girls t-shirts were a nice surprise, too! I hadn't been expecting them, so I was all squee! package! tshirts!

Ooh, that must be what the shipping e-mail from Subterranean Press was all about tonight. Yay!

It was. It got here today. The cover looks spiffy and I can't wait to read it.

Will there be an eBook version of Velveteen, as well?
Shelf space. It is sadly not as infinite as regular space.

In theory but currently delayed. I too await more concrete news of this.

Like many others, I didn't know what Subterranean Press was shipping until I searched my email. I've had so much (not good) happen since March that I'd completely forgotten that I'd pre-ordered WWYR. Nice surprise bright spot for my holiday season.

Hurrah! And now I know which one of the three or four possibilities that Subterranean shipping email was for. And I can order Vel! *hurries to do so*

That is fantastic news! My book club just finished the Feed trilogy and we were sad that the other piece mentioned in the back was supposed to be e-book only. A hardcover WWYR should cheer everyone up. Oh, and the whole group loved your series! Best wishes.

Aside: I lost my cd that has your Cartography song on it. I can't get that cd from iTunes and bought the last one at a convention vendor. Where might I be able to purchase another? Thanks!
