I had a lot of fun at
Supernova at the weekend, gawking at the cosplayers and celebrities and trying not to spend the whole month's budget on books, comics, dvds and assorted geekery. I MET KATEE SACKHOFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!! For those who don't know, she's Starbuck from
Battlestar Galactica, and she was lovely, despite being probably quite jetlagged.
I got to (briefly) meet fellow Brisbane author
Trent Jamieson, who signed my copy of
Managing Death, the second book in his awesome new urban fantasy series Death Works (more info about this can be found on his website, including some spiffy 'community announcement' videos about the series).
I also briefly said hi to
Marianne de Pierres, whose new young adult series,
Night Creatures, I really must check out. So many books, so little time! That's it for now. I'd better go and tackle the giant stack of unread books by my beside before it topples and crushes me in my sleep.
