Where’s the Monkey?

I’ll be off to World Fantasy Con in Saratoga Springs, New York first thing on Wednesday morning. I’m around for the whole convention and anyone wanting to stop by and say ‘hi’ should be able to find me in the hotel bar most hours of the day (and night). See you there!

I’m really liking the new single from Kylie Minogue at the moment – a throughly enjoyable slice of glam pop that harks back to the likes of Marc Bolan and Slade. You can check out the video here. Be warned, though - you’ll be singing it for hours afterwards.

Now I can’t wait until December to see Kylie appear in Doctor Who alongside David Tennant. Shame she won’t be wearing the same outfit.

I recently wrote an article for Publishing News, a UK-based book trade magazine, about the different ways in which publishers approach the packaging of SF/F titles on their lists. It’s just been posted on the Solaris website, here, for anyone who’s interested.
