On this bitterly cold Adelaide morning, my bones are uncharacteristically eager for some luscious Northern Hemisphere weather. As it happens, they're going to get exactly what they wish for.

Tomorrow, I'm heading off to the Writers of the Future 2007 Awards Ceremony in California. Highlights will include hanging out with an amazing bunch of people--including new and past winners, like Nina Kiriki Hoffman, Jay Lake and Steven Savile--plus a tour through legendary JPL.

I'm also filming an interview that will be used to promote The Force Unleashed, closer to its release date. And maybe I'll catch an episode of Flight of the Conchords "live" while I'm there.

It only seems like last week that Amanda and I returned from honeymoon, so I'm not exactly looking forward to the long haul across the Pacific. But it will be totally worth it. Every year, I come home from the awards ceremony totally recharged. Given the schedule I have coming up, it's perfect timing.

I haven't read Stir of bones yet. I hope to get a copy soon.

Have a wonderful trip. Are you going to the Hugos as well?

Coming straight home afterwards, I'm afraid. Amanda and I are travelling at cross-purposes the next couple of months, so I'm grabbing every opportunity I can to be ensconced in marital bliss. :-)

As you should. Fun, isn't it?

It will be our fifth wedding anniversery in a few weeks, and our 10th as a couple in November.
