In the most recent Writing Excuses podcast episode, Mary Robinette Kowal, Howard Tayler, Dan Wells, and I talk about breaking the rules. We've said that you've got to learn the rules before you break them, so now it's time to talk about why to break them.

Tomorrow I'm starting the second leg of my book tour, and Harriet McDougal will join me for many of the stops. Details on my events page.

I'll also go to various conventions this year, and there are two or three book tours later this year that aren't planned out yet. I'll try to stop somewhere in Texas for the THE RITHMATIST tour in May, and I'm thinking of going to the UK around November or so. If you want to receive my newsletter, and get email reminders when I'll be signing near you, tell me your city here.

I've uploaded the second video of me writing the Rysn interlude from the sequel to THE WAY OF KINGS. If you missed the first video with the prewriting, it's here. This week's video starts the interlude itself.
