News for October 9th, 2009

Hello again from your LGG newsgatherer, this time reporting in from Dublin, Ireland - a place close to my heart, today also because I can actually get a wireless connection here! Blogging in France is a very difficult thing to do unless you actually want to try and do it with a cellphone, which is also a little beyond my technical skills.

So today there'll be a round-up of news from the past couple of weeks that I haven't been able to post before now. Please excuse the delay but I think it's better late than not at all.

The CSFF Blog Tour for September focused on The Vanishing Sculptor by Donita K. Paul, and you can read the tour's top review here, written by Rachel Starr Thomson.

Lyndon Perry is continuing his series of short interviews at Residential Aliens, check out the latest additions:
2 Questions for Frank Creed

And LGG member Terri Main has been interviewed by Bryan Polivka here: http://www.polivkavox.com/2009/09/confessions-of-twitter-prof.html


For writers:

Creative Trust’s Kevin Kaiser (Ted Dekker’s agent) is opening up his agency for one day to unsolicited submissions.

You can read more about it here: http://kevinskaiser.com/2009/09/15/are-you-the-next-ted-dekker-part-2/

You should only submit a query, synopsis, and sample if suspense is a big part of your novel.
