My alma mater, the Residential College at the University of Michigan, puts out a quarterly newsletter, RC News. In the Spring 2007 issue, which just showed up in my mailbox yesterday, they ran a small piece on me on page 10 as part of a larger article called “Unpacking Alumni: Success in Business.”

For some reason, they used the cover of the REVs comic rather than a photo of me, but that’s probably because the pictures of the other six alumni all look like they were taken on campus. I haven’t set foot in East Quad for over a decade, although I’m thinking about coming out for the school’s 40th anniversary party this fall. If any other alums out there might show up, let me know!

Eberron

In the first episode of a brand-new podcast, “Nameless1,” Daniel Gaghan covers a number of female characters in his “Women in Fantasy Review.” The first book he tackles is none other than Marked for Death, my first Eberron novel. (The next one up is Madeleine L’Engle’s A Wrinkle in Time, and you can’t ask for better company than that.)

Daniel talks about the three main females in Marked for Death: Esprë, Sallah, and Te’oma. He’s particularly fond of Te’oma, a flawed but powerful woman. I wonder how he’ll feel about her when he gets to reading The Queen of Death? While I didn’t intend it at the outset, the Lost Mark Trilogy is, in many ways, Te’oma’s tale.
