Nantes, France Utopiales Convention Schedule + Signing in Paris

There's a new Writing Excuses podcast episode up where John Brown joins Howard, Dan, and me to discuss the creative process. Give it a listen.

Tomorrow I'm flying to France to attend the Utopialies science fiction convention in Nantes. My schedule is below. (It seems to be rather signing-heavy; I don't know how well attended these will be, so I'll probably have lots of chances to talk to readers or play Magic or something.) After the con I'll be going to Paris, where I will have a signing at the WH Smith bookstore on November 16th at 7:00 p.m. Details are at the end of the post.
