The Mammoth Book of Steampunk has been e-shipped early via Kindle. The paper book is not yet available, and the NOOK version is still pre-order only, but there's the Kindle, just the same. Amazon loses money on ebooks in order to sell more Kindle Fires, which they also lose money on, so if you want to help Amazon slash its own profits, go forth and buy a copy. It includes my novelette "Arbeitskraft," about Freidrich Engels (inexplicably changed to Frederich by a copyeditor) and some poor little match girls... The same novelette will also be in Steampunk III: Steampunk Revolution later this year.
Meanwhile, at Team Rocket, the All You Need Is KILL movie chugs ahead, with Emily Blunt negotiating to star asthe Full Metal Bitch Valkyrie One. A Japanese colleague asked me what a valkyrie is this morning. No word on whether Ms. Blunt will come by the office and play table tennis with everyone yet!
This looked interesting, but I stopped at Cornwall, England and then I immediately had to find this video:
Hot pasty to the face!
